NAME

hm2_5i20 − EMC2 HAL driver for the Mesa Electronics 5i20 and 4i65 Anything IO boards, with HostMot2 firmware.

SYNOPSIS

loadrt hm2_5i20 [config="str"]

config [default: ""]

HostMot2 config string, described in the hostmot2(9) manpage.

DESCRIPTION

NOTE: This driver has been replaced by the hm2_pci driver. Please switch. No changes to your HAL files should be needed. The hm2_5i20 driver will be removed at some point in the future.

hm2_5i20 is a device driver that interfaces the Mesa 5i20 (PCI) and 4i65 (PC/104-Plus) boards with the HostMot2 firmware to the EMC2 HAL.

The driver programs the board’s FPGA with firmware when it registers the board with the hostmot2 driver. The old bfload(1) firmware loading method is not used anymore. Instead the firmware to load is specified in the config modparam, as described in the hostmot2(9) manpage, in the config modparam section.
