So the fw_cfg looks like this in 'info qtree':
dev: fw_cfg, id ""
ctl_iobase = 0x510
data_iobase = 0x511
irq 0
mmio ffffffffffffffff/0000000000000002
mmio ffffffffffffffff/0000000000000001
I'm confused by the mmio values (start at the very top of memory, go
for one or two bytes from there ?)
I also found this patch by Gerd, which doesn't seem to have made it
upstream (yet):
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg110131.html
That patch suggests that I could just write stuff to 0x510 and read
from 0x511, and if I get it "right" the values I read will end up
making sense :)
Can anyone can point me to an example of how to interact with fw_cfg ?
Thanks,
