I'm looking into running EPICS under LINUX on a VME IOC. To that end I
have been looking at various Linux VME drivers for the Tundra Universe
Chip.
1) VMELinux project ( http://www.vmelinux.org/ ) Frozen in 2001, 2.2
kernel.

2) sourceForge (http://sourceforge.net/projects/universe2/ ) This
workes well enough for vme io but interrupt handling has failed for me
so far.

3) Vendor supplied driver for one of the vme processor boards in use at
TRIUMF.
I note that the libCom OSI libraries have vme support for vxWorks and
RTEMS only. Before I start working on Linux support is anybody working
along similar lines or have any thoughts or suggestions?
Thanks
Graham
