2 * scsi_module.c Copyright (1994, 1995) Eric Youngdale.
3 *
4 * Support for loading low-level scsi drivers using the linux kernel loadable
5 * module interface.
6 *
7 * To use, the host adapter should first define and initialize the variable
8 * driver_template (datatype Scsi_Host_Template), and then include this file.
9 * This should also be wrapped in a #ifdef MODULE/#endif.
10 *
11 * The low -level driver must also define a release function which will
12 * free any irq assignments, release any dma channels, release any I/O
13 * address space that might be reserved, and otherwise clean up after itself.
14 * The idea is that the same driver should be able to be reloaded without
15 * any difficulty. This makes debugging new drivers easier, as you should
16 * be able to load the driver, test it, unload, modify and reload.
17 *
18 * One *very* important caveat. If the driver may need to do DMA on the
19 * ISA bus, you must have unchecked_isa_dma set in the device template,
20 * even if this might be changed during the detect routine. This is
21 * because the shpnt structure will be allocated in a special way so that
22 * it will be below the appropriate DMA limit - thus if your driver uses
23 * the hostdata field of shpnt, and the board must be able to access this
24 * via DMA, the shpnt structure must be in a DMA accessible region of
25 * memory. This comment would be relevant for something like the buslogic
26 * driver where there are many boards, only some of which do DMA onto the
27 * ISA bus. There is no convenient way of specifying whether the host
28 * needs to be in a ISA DMA accessible region of memory when you call
29 * scsi_register.
