I posted an answer to your question in the newsgroup. I also have
|
||
|
additional information for you.
|
||
|
|
||
|
I can email you the binary for VxD which does exactly what you need:
|
||
|
given a physical address, returns a pointer that can be used by a
|
||
|
Win32 application. I'll also give you source for a Win32 app which
|
||
|
uses the VxD to read an area of physical memory.
|
||
|
|
||
|
I don't offer this solution to everyone, since in most cases the
|
||
|
proper solution is for them to write a VxD which interacts with their
|
||
|
hardware, rather than simply getting a pointer to the hardware and
|
||
|
interacting with it from an application.
|
||
|
|
||
|
However, in your case, you're just using a VxD as a tool to get your
|
||
|
Linux driver working...you shouldn't have to write a VxD for this :-)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Let me know if you're interested.

Hello Karen
|
||
|
|
||
|
A long time ago, you sent me your VXD for reading an area of physical
|
||
|
memory under Win32, so I could make register dumps of the graphic
|
||
|
chip. Did I ever mention, that it works perfectly for me?
|
||
|
|
||
|
Why I contact you is, that I really would like to offer this solution
|
||
|
to all XFree86 members, so that it will be much easier in the future
|
||
|
for XFree86 to develop drivers for graphic boards.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Can I count with your agreement? Would you like to add a special
|
||
|
copyright to your software?
|
||
|
|
||
|
Stefan
