32ppbus microseqencer developer's guide
33.Sh SYNOPSIS
34.Fd "#include <sys/types.h>"
35.Fd "#include <dev/ppbus/ppbconf.h>"
36.Fd "#include <dev/ppbus/ppb_msq.h>"
37.Sh DESCRIPTION
38See
39.Xr ppbus 4
40for ppbus description and general info about the microsequencer.
41.Pp
42The purpose of this document is to encourage developers to use the
43microsequencer mechanism in order to have:
44.Bl -enum -offset indent
45.It
46a uniform programming model
47.It
48efficient code
49.El
50.Pp
51Before using microsequences, you are encouraged to look at
52.Xr ppc 4
53microsequencer implementation and an example of how using it in
54.Xr vpo 4 .
55.Sh PPBUS register model
56.Ss Background
57The parallel port model chosen for ppbus is the PC parallel port model.
58Thus, any register described later has the same semantic than its counterpart
59in a PC parallel port. For more info about ISA/ECP programming, get the
60Microsoft standard referenced as "Extended Capabilities Port Protocol and
61ISA interface Standard". Registers described later are standard parallel port
62registers.
63.Pp
64Mask macros are defined in the standard ppbus include files for each valid
65bit of parallel port registers.
66.Ss Data register
67In compatible or nibble mode, writing to this register will drive data to the
68parallel port data lines. In any other mode, drivers may be tri-stated by
69setting the direction bit (PCD) in the control register. Reads to this register
70return the value on the data lines.
71.Ss Device status register
72This read-only register reflects the inputs on the parallel port interface.
73.Pp

80.It 3 Ta nFAULT Ta "version of parallel port nFault signal"
81.El

83Others are reserved and return undefined result when read.
84.Ss Device control register
85This register directly controls several output signals as well as enabling
86some functions.

97.Sh MICROINSTRUCTIONS
98.Ss Description

400};
401.Ed
402.Ss Using microsequences
403To instantiate a microsequence, just declare an array of ppb_microseq
404structures and initialize it as needed. You may either use predefined macros
405or code directly your microinstructions according to the ppb_microseq
406definition. For example,
407.Bd -literal
408 struct ppb_microseq select_microseq[] = {
409
410 /* parameter list
411 */
412 #define SELECT_TARGET MS_PARAM(0, 1, MS_TYP_INT)
413 #define SELECT_INITIATOR MS_PARAM(3, 1, MS_TYP_INT)
414
415 /* send the select command to the drive */
416 MS_DASS(MS_UNKNOWN),
417 MS_CASS(H_nAUTO | H_nSELIN | H_INIT | H_STROBE),
418 MS_CASS( H_AUTO | H_nSELIN | H_INIT | H_STROBE),
419 MS_DASS(MS_UNKNOWN),
420 MS_CASS( H_AUTO | H_nSELIN | H_nINIT | H_STROBE),
421
422 /* now, wait until the drive is ready */
423 MS_SET(VP0_SELTMO),
424/* loop: */ MS_BRSET(H_ACK, 2 /* ready */),
425 MS_DBRA(-2 /* loop */),
426/* error: */ MS_RET(1),
427/* ready: */ MS_RET(0)
428 };
429.Ed
430.Pp
431Here, some parameters are undefined and must be filled before executing
432the microsequence. In order to initialize each microsequence, one
433should use the ppb_MS_init_msq() function like this:
434.Bd -literal
435 ppb_MS_init_msq(select_microseq, 2,
436 SELECT_TARGET, 1 << target,
437 SELECT_INITIATOR, 1 << initiator);
438.Ed
439.Pp
440and then execute the microsequence.
441.Ss The microsequencer
442The microsequencer is executed either at ppbus or adapter level (see
443.Xr ppbus 4
444for info about ppbus system layers). Most of the microsequencer is executed
445at ppc level to avoid ppbus to adapter function call overhead. But some
446actions like deciding whereas the transfer is IEEE1284-1994 compliant are
447executed at ppbus layer.
448.Sh BUGS
449Only one level of submicrosequences is allowed.
450.Pp
451When triggering the port, maximum delay allowed is 255 us.
