Hi
I am trying to use the uio_dmem_genirq.c driver for allocating DMA memory to a PCI device
using the uio_pci_generic.c driver.
I got as far as defining an UIO dev containing only Dynamic DMA memory and
now I am stuck.
I can see how DMA memory is allocated when opening the /dev/uio device but I cannot
figure out how to mmap this memory to User space as well so I can share this
memory with the PCI device and my user space driver.
What am I missing?

Why can't you call mmap() on the fd you created when you opened
/dev/uio? What happens when you do that?
thanks,

Haven't tried that as I figured it had to be something similar as UIO PCI
where you can have several memory regions and therefore must mmap one of
the resource files under sys:
# > pwd
