If a mode is provided at startup -throw the flags variable of the boot interface, the operating mode of the -chipset is forced according to 'flags' and its available modes. -.Pp -During attach phasis, ppc allocates a ppbus structure, initializes it and -calls ppbus attach function. -.Ss Supported flags -.Bl -item -offset indent -.It -bits 0-4: chipset forced mode(s) -.Bd -literal -PPB_COMPATIBLE 0x0 /* Centronics compatible mode */ -PPB_NIBBLE 0x1 /* reverse 4 bit mode */ -PPB_PS2 0x2 /* PS/2 byte mode */ -PPB_EPP 0x4 /* EPP mode, 32 bit */ -PPB_ECP 0x8 /* ECP mode */ -.Ed -.Pp -And any mixed values. -.It -bit 5: EPP protocol (0 EPP 1.9, 1 EPP 1.7) -.It -bit 6: activate IRQ (1 IRQ disabled, 0 IRQ enabled) -.El -.Ss Supported chipsets -Some parallel port chipsets are explicitly supported by ppc: detection and -initialisation code has been written according to specs datasheets. -.Bl -bullet -offset indent -.It -SMC FDC37C665GT and FDC37C666GT chipsets -.It -Natsemi PC873xx-family (PC87332 and PC87306) -.It -Winbond W83877xx-family (W83877F and W83877AF) -.It -SMC-like chipsets with mixed modes (see -.Xr ppbus 4 ) -.El -.Ss Adding support to a new chipset -You may want to add support for the newest chipset your last motherboard was -sold with?
