+Introduction

The Zorro bus is the bus used in the Amiga family of computers. Thanks to
AutoConfig(tm), it's 100% Plug-and-Play.
with Zorro II. The Zorro III address space lies outside the first 16 MB.
-2. Probing for Zorro Devices
-----------------------------
+Probing for Zorro Devices
+-------------------------
-Zorro devices are found by calling `zorro_find_device()', which returns a
-pointer to the `next' Zorro device with the specified Zorro ID. A probe loop
-for the board with Zorro ID `ZORRO_PROD_xxx' looks like:

-3. Zorro Resources
-------------------
+Zorro Resources
+---------------
Before you can access a Zorro device's registers, you have to make sure it's
not yet in use. This is done using the I/O memory space resource management
-functions:
+functions::
request_mem_region()
release_mem_region()
-Shortcuts to claim the whole device's address space are provided as well:

-4. Accessing the Zorro Address Space
-------------------------------------
+Accessing the Zorro Address Space
+---------------------------------
The address regions in the Zorro device resources are Zorro bus address
regions. Due to the identity bus-physical address mapping on the Zorro bus,
explicitly using z_ioremap().
Conversion from bus/physical Zorro II addresses to kernel virtual addresses
- and vice versa is done using:
+ and vice versa is done using::
virt_addr = ZTWO_VADDR(bus_addr);
bus_addr = ZTWO_PADDR(virt_addr);
- Zorro III address space must be mapped explicitly using z_ioremap() first
- before it can be accessed:
+ before it can be accessed::
virt_addr = z_ioremap(bus_addr, size);
...
z_iounmap(virt_addr);
