Then this .sys driver should (1) emulate hardware UART and IRQs (which
is possible only in protected mode) and should (2) implement all low-level
asynchronous protocols, which in real modems implemented internally with
help of dedicated DSP. Both tasks are far from easy, even in multitasked
protected OSes like Windows and Linux...
Dear Arkady and collegues,
There are so called controller-less hardware modems, both
ISA and PCI, which are some intermediaries between win and
usual hardware modems. (I have, for example, Intel (R) 536EP
modem). They, partially, emulate COM ports. For many of them
there are drivers under Linux and FreeBSD.
Does anybody know at least one example of DOS driver
for such almost normal modem?
Are there any PRINCIPAL barriers in DOS architecture, to
develope such drivers, apart it's not easy?
