npx(4) MATH_EMULATE and ArinfoTek Teak3011: AMD GEODE SBC LX-800 (fwd)


I suppose this is the more appropriate list.  I've found reference to the 
Crypto Accelerator at:

http://www.amd.com/files/connectivitysolutions/geode/geode_lx/Patches_Linux2.6.11_Common_02.03.0100.patch

However, because Linux uses character devices and doesnt really provide 
the platform independent API of crypto(9), it's hard to tell if this is 
just an OEM of some other crypto accelerator IC (Intel/Via Possibly)

I looked over all of the ones supported in NetBSD and OpenBSD -- hifn(4), 
ises(4), lofn(4), noct(4), nofn(4), safe(4), ubsec(4) and it doesn't seem 
to mention Via/Intel OEM, so this may be new territory.

WRAP.1E-2 and lm77

Hi,

Has anyone been able to get NetBSD to recognise the LM77 thermal sensor
on the WRAP.1E-2 ?

According to the WRAP documentation:

"The LM77 thermal sensor sits on the secondary I2C bus, at address 90h."

I have the following line in my kernel config:

# LM7[89] and compatible hardware monitors
lm0     at isa? port 0x290            # other common ports: 0x280, 0x310

dmesg does not show anything relevant and "envstat -l" just returns "No
sensors found".

I'm running netbsd-3 from ~3 months ago.

thanks,

adrian.

It's an I2C bus device.

You're trying to attach the ISA-bus version.

I'm not familiar with the WRAP board, but if its I2C controller is 
supported you should be able to do:

lmtemp0 at iic0 addr 0x90

Cheers, Steve

Yup lmtemp(4) answered all my questions. But . . .

"The lmtemp device appeared in NetBSD 4.0."

Hmmm . . . maybe time for an update.

Thanks for the pointer.

Except that secondary I2C bus probably refers to:

lmtemp0 at iic1 addr 0x90

Again, if the I2C controller is supported.

I'll boot a 4 kernel on it and see how far it gets me.

thanks,
