Alessandro Rubini022c6742013-06-18 23:47:24 +02001Module Parameters in fmc.ko
2***************************
3
4The core driver receives two module parameters, meant to help debugging
5client modules. Both parameters can be modified by writing to
6/sys/module/fmc/parameters/, because they are used when client drivers
7are devices are registered, not when fmc.ko is loaded.
8
9`dump_eeprom='
10 If not zero, the parameter asks the bus controller to dump the
11 EEPROM of any device that is registered, using printk.
12
13`dump_sdb='
14 If not zero, the parameter prints the SDB tree of every FPGA it is
15 loaded by fmc_reprogram(). If greater than one, it asks to dump
16 the binary content of SDB records. This currently only dumps the
17 top-level SDB array, though.

20EEPROM dumping avoids repeating lines, since most of the contents is
21usually empty and all bits are one or zero. This is an example of the
22output:

41The dump of SDB looks like the following; the example shows the simple
42golden gateware for the SPEC card, removing the leading timestamps to
43fit the page:
