Not really. The problem is that puc(4) iterates over all ports in the same way whether you use uart(4) or sio(4). So, puc(4) is the problem more that sio(4) or uart(4). However, uart(4) has the beginnings of an interface that puc(4) could use to figure out which UART needs attention without actually calling the interrupt routine for each of them. -- Marcel Moolenaar USPA: A-39004 [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
