Information about PowerPC Sound support
|
||||
=====================================================================
|
||||
|
||||
Please mail me (Cort Dougan, cort@fsmlabs.com) if you have questions,
|
||||
comments or corrections.
|
||||
|
||||
Last Change: 6.16.99
|
||||
|
||||
This just covers sound on the PReP and CHRP systems for now and later
|
||||
will contain information on the PowerMac's.
|
||||
|
||||
Sound on PReP has been tested and is working with the PowerStack and IBM
|
||||
Power Series onboard sound systems which are based on the cs4231(2) chip.
|
||||
The sound options when doing the make config are a bit different from
|
||||
the default, though.
|
||||
|
||||
The I/O base, irq and dma lines that you enter during the make config
|
||||
are ignored and are set when booting according to the machine type.
|
||||
This is so that one binary can be used for Motorola and IBM machines
|
||||
which use different values and isn't allowed by the driver, so things
|
||||
are hacked together in such a way as to allow this information to be
|
||||
set automatically on boot.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Motorola PowerStack PReP machines
|
||||
|
||||
Enable support for "Crystal CS4232 based (PnP) cards" and for the
|
||||
Microsoft Sound System. The MSS isn't used, but some of the routines
|
||||
that the CS4232 driver uses are in it.
|
||||
|
||||
Although the options you set are ignored and determined automatically
|
||||
on boot these are included for information only:
|
||||
|
||||
(830) CS4232 audio I/O base 530, 604, E80 or F40
|
||||
(10) CS4232 audio IRQ 5, 7, 9, 11, 12 or 15
|
||||
(6) CS4232 audio DMA 0, 1 or 3
|
||||
(7) CS4232 second (duplex) DMA 0, 1 or 3
|
||||
|
||||
This will allow simultaneous record and playback, as 2 different dma
|
||||
channels are used.
|
||||
|
||||
The sound will be all left channel and very low volume since the
|
||||
auxiliary input isn't muted by default. I had the changes necessary
|
||||
for this in the kernel but the sound driver maintainer didn't want
|
||||
to include them since it wasn't common in other machines. To fix this
|
||||
you need to mute it using a mixer utility of some sort (if you find one
|
||||
please let me know) or by patching the driver yourself and recompiling.
|
||||
|
||||
There is a problem on the PowerStack 2's (PowerStack Pro's) using a
|
||||
different irq/drq than the kernel expects. Unfortunately, I don't know
|
||||
which irq/drq it is so if anyone knows please email me.
|
||||
|
||||
Midi is not supported since the cs4232 driver doesn't support midi yet.
|
||||
|
||||
2. IBM PowerPersonal PReP machines
|
||||
|
||||
I've only tested sound on the Power Personal Series of IBM workstations
|
||||
so if you try it on others please let me know the result. I'm especially
|
||||
interested in the 43p's sound system, which I know nothing about.
|
||||
|
||||
Enable support for "Crystal CS4232 based (PnP) cards" and for the
|
||||
Microsoft Sound System. The MSS isn't used, but some of the routines
|
||||
that the CS4232 driver uses are in it.
|
||||
|
||||
Although the options you set are ignored and determined automatically
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
(530) CS4232 audio I/O base 530, 604, E80 or F40
|
||||
(5) CS4232 audio IRQ 5, 7, 9, 11, 12 or 15
|
||||
(1) CS4232 audio DMA 0, 1 or 3
|
||||
(7) CS4232 second (duplex) DMA 0, 1 or 3
|
||||
(330) CS4232 MIDI I/O base 330, 370, 3B0 or 3F0
|
||||
(9) CS4232 MIDI IRQ 5, 7, 9, 11, 12 or 15
|
||||
|
||||
This setup does _NOT_ allow for recording yet.
|
||||
|
||||
Midi is not supported since the cs4232 driver doesn't support midi yet.
|
||||
|
||||
2. IBM CHRP
|
||||
|
||||
I have only tested this on the 43P-150. Build the kernel with the cs4232
|
||||
set as a module and load the module with irq=9 dma=1 dma2=2 io=0x550

Information about the Linux/PPC kernel images
|
||||
=====================================================================
|
||||
|
||||
Please mail me (Cort Dougan, cort@fsmlabs.com) if you have questions,
|
||||
comments or corrections.
|
||||
|
||||
This document is meant to answer several questions I've had about how
|
||||
the PReP system boots and how Linux/PPC interacts with that mechanism.
|
||||
It would be nice if we could have information on how other architectures
|
||||
boot here as well. If you have anything to contribute, please
|
||||
let me know.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
1. PReP boot file
|
||||
|
||||
This is the file necessary to boot PReP systems from floppy or
|
||||
hard drive. The firmware reads the PReP partition table entry
|
||||
and will load the image accordingly.
|
||||
|
||||
To boot the zImage, copy it onto a floppy with dd if=zImage of=/dev/fd0h1440
|
||||
or onto a PReP hard drive partition with dd if=zImage of=/dev/sda4
|
||||
assuming you've created a PReP partition (type 0x41) with fdisk on
|
||||
/dev/sda4.
|
||||
|
||||
The layout of the image format is:
|
||||
|
||||
0x0 +------------+
|
||||
| | PReP partition table entry
|
||||
| |
|
||||
0x400 +------------+
|
||||
| | Bootstrap program code + data
|
||||
| |
|
||||
| |
|
||||
+------------+
|
||||
| | compressed kernel, elf header removed
|
||||
+------------+
|
||||
| | initrd (if loaded)
|
||||
+------------+
|
||||
| | Elf section table for bootstrap program
|
||||
+------------+
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
2. MBX boot file
|
||||
|
||||
The MBX boards can load an elf image, and relocate it to the
|
||||
proper location in memory - it copies the image to the location it was
|
||||
linked at.
