Hello, I have been working on the emulation of the IP-Octal 232 IndustryPack module, a device that implements eight RS-232 serial ports.
IndustryPack modules are small boards that are attached to a carrier board, so in order to have a complete and working system I also wrote an emulation of the TEWS TPCI200 carrier, which is a PCI board to which up to 4 IndustryPack modules can be attached. I have been using this virtual device to test and debug the ipoctal driver in the Linux kernel. I'm publishing the code now, the emulation is not 100% complete but it's fairly functional, and it can be used to easily implement more IndustryPack modules. So the work consists on three parts: - TPCI200, the bridge between PCI and IndustryPack. - The IndustryPack bus. - IP-Octal, the IndustryPack module. Basic usage: $ qemu -device tpci200 -device ipoctal Each one of the serial ports in the ipoctal device can be redirected to a character device in the host using the functionality provided by QEMU. The 'serial0' to 'serial7' parameters can be used to specify each one of the redirections. Suggestions, comments, etc, will be appreciated.
