I mean PCI ones. Usb is already supported, right ?
I've seen some winbond controllers that sit on the ISA bus. So PCI
isn't necessarily automatic. ;-)
Do you mean the flash chip for BIOS ?
No. I'm talking about a certain WinBond controller for SD and MMC cards.
got it.
The flash card I am talking about is those like SD, CF, mini SD. They
are very popular in digital camera,
cell phone, ....
Yes, I understand. I've written an SD driver for Solaris/SPARC
(Winbond). It is supported on Tadpole hardware. The chip is connected
to the system via ebus (which is another name for ISA on SPARC. :-)
No, that driver will never be part of OpenSolaris. At the time I wrote
it, all of the interfaces from Winbond and the SDcard trade association
were all very proprietary, and required all sorts of NDAs.
And the flash card reader controller I'm talking about here is the pci
ones like the one for ferrari 4k.
Are you sure its PCI connected? Check the prtconf output to be sure.
(As I already said, I know some laptops ... including Tadpoles! ... use
ISA rather than PCI.)
It is. Here is the result of lspci.

PCI7411, PCI7421, PCI7611, PCI7621 Secure Digital (SD) Controller (prog-if 01)
Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 0, IRQ 177

Although there is now a standard class driver for these things, so
recent laptops probably do have PCI-connected devices.

But it is not supported by Solaris, which made me think of writing a
driver
for it. Now two questions:
Do you think such support is important ?
Is there existing driver for such hardware ?
Thank you
