Brandon Philips 1bafeb378e uio: add the uio_aec driver
UIO driver for the Adrienne Electronics Corporation PCI time code
device.

This device differs from other UIO devices since it uses I/O ports instead of
memory mapped I/O. In order to make it possible for UIO to work with this
device a utility, uioport, can be used to read and write the ports.

uioport is designed to be a setuid program and checks the permissions of
the /dev/uio* node and if the user has write permissions it will use
iopl and out*/in* to access the device.

menuconfig UIO
tristate "Userspace I/O drivers"
depends on !S390
default n
help
Enable this to allow the userspace driver core code to be
built. This code allows userspace programs easy access to
kernel interrupts and memory locations, allowing some drivers
to be written in userspace. Note that a small kernel driver
is also required for interrupt handling to work properly.
If you don't know what to do here, say N.

Driver for Hilscher CIF DeviceNet and Profibus cards. This
driver requires a userspace component that handles all of the
heavy lifting and can be found at:
http://www.osadl.org/projects/downloads/UIO/user/cif-*
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
will be called uio_cif.

config UIO_PDRV_GENIRQ
tristate "Userspace I/O platform driver with generic IRQ handling"
help
Platform driver for Userspace I/O devices, including generic
interrupt handling code. Shared interrupts are not supported.
This kernel driver requires that the matching userspace driver
handles interrupts in a special way. Userspace is responsible
for acknowledging the hardware device if needed, and re-enabling
interrupts in the interrupt controller using the write() syscall.
If you don't know what to do here, say N.

help
Userspace IO interface to the Cryptography engine found on the
Nias Digital SMX boards. These will be available from Q4 2008
from http://www.niasdigital.com. The userspace part of this
driver will be released under the GPL at the same time as the
hardware and will be able to be downloaded from the same site.
If you compile this as a module, it will be called uio_smx.
