28.Sh NAME
29.Nm CPU_ELAN
30.Nd AMD Elan 520 CPU support
31.Sh SYNOPSIS
32.Cd "options CPU_ELAN"
33.Cd "options CPU_ELAN_PPS"
34.Cd "options CPU_ELAN_XTAL"
35.Bl -item -compact

40.El
41.Cd "options CPU_SOEKRIS"
42.Sh DESCRIPTION
43The
44.Cd "options CPU_ELAN"
45enables support for the AMD Elan 520 CPU.
46.Pp
47A device
48.Pa /dev/elan-mmcr
49exports the MMCR register bank to userland
50using
51.Xr mmap 2 .
52.Pp
53The
54.Tn i8254
55timer will be adjusted to the slightly unorthodox
56frequency 1189161 Hz (32768 * 45 * 25 / 31) employed by the Elan.
57.Pp
58A timecounter named
59.Dq Li ELAN
60is implemented using the general purpose timer 2,
61but it will not be usable unless HZ is configured at 150 or higher.
62This timecounter is much better than the
63.Dq Li i8254
64timecounter and should be
65used at all times.
66.Pp
67The
68.Va machdep.elan_gpio_config
69.Xr sysctl 8
70variable
71enables configuration of the GPIO pins of the CPU.
72The string must be exactly 32 characters long.
73A
74.Ql -
75means the GPIO is unavailable.
76A
77.Ql l
78(lower-case ell) configures a
79.Xr led 4
80device (active low).
81A
82.Ql L
83configures a
84.Xr led 4
85device (active high).
86A
87.Ql \&.
88means no configuration for this GPIO.
89These
90.Xr led 4
91devices will be named
92.Pa /dev/led/gpio%d .
93For meaning of
94.Ql P ,
95.Ql e
96and
97.Ql E ,
98see under
99.Cd "options CPU_ELAN_PPS" .
100.Pp
101The
102.Cd "options CPU_ELAN_XTAL"
103and the
104.Va machdep.elan_freq
105.Xr sysctl 8
106variable
107can be used to set the CPU clock crystal frequency in Hz.
108The default is 33333333 Hz.
109.Pp
110The
111.Cd "options CPU_ELAN_PPS"
112enables precision timestamping using the RFC2783 PPS-API via the
113.Pa /dev/elan-mmcr
114device.
115The resolution will be approximately 125 nsec
116and the precision \(+- 125 nsec.
117(For 125 nsec read
118.Dq "4 / CPU clock crystal frequency" . )
119.Pp
120The input signal must be connected to the TMR1IN pin and
121a GPIO pin.
122The GPIO pin must be configured with a
123.Ql P
124in
125.Va machdep.elan_gpio_config .
126.Pp
127In addition, one GPIO pin can be configured with either
128.Ql e
129(active low)
130or
131.Ql E
132(active high) to become a
133.Dq echo
134output of the input signal.
135Please notice that this signal is not suitable for calibration.
136.Pp
137If the
138.Cd "options CPU_SOEKRIS"
139is given, the support will additionally be tailored to the
140Soekris Engineering 45xx series of embedded computers.
141The
142.Dq error
143led will be configured (as
144.Pa /dev/led/error )
145and the GPIO pins which are not
146available will be disabled.
