[PATCH v2 33/79] docs: serial: convert docs to ReST and rename to *.rst

Mauro Carvalho Chehab mchehab+samsung at kernel.org
Mon Apr 22 23:27:22 AEST 2019


The converted files are focused at the Kernel internal API,
so, this is a good candidate for the kernel API set of books.

The conversion is actually:
  - add blank lines and identation in order to identify paragraphs;
  - fix tables markups;
  - add some lists markups;
  - mark literal blocks;
  - adjust title markups.

At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to
the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.

-   This driver and installation procedure have been developed upon Linux Kernel
-   2.4.x and 2.6.x. This driver supports Intel x86 hardware platform. In order
-   to maintain compatibility, this version has also been properly tested with
-   RedHat, Mandrake, Fedora and S.u.S.E Linux. However, if compatibility problem
-   occurs, please contact Moxa at support at moxa.com.tw.
-
-   In addition to device driver, useful utilities are also provided in this
-   version. They are
-    - msdiag     Diagnostic program for displaying installed Moxa
-                 Smartio/Industio boards.
-    - msmon      Monitor program to observe data count and line status signals.
-    - msterm     A simple terminal program which is useful in testing serial
-	         ports.
-    - io-irq.exe Configuration program to setup ISA boards. Please note that
-                 this program can only be executed under DOS.
-
-   All the drivers and utilities are published in form of source code under
-   GNU General Public License in this version. Please refer to GNU General
-   Public License announcement in each source code file for more detail.
-
-   In Moxa's Web sites, you may always find latest driver at http://www.moxa.com/.
-
-   This version of driver can be installed as Loadable Module (Module driver)
-   or built-in into kernel (Static driver). You may refer to following
-   installation procedure for suitable one. Before you install the driver,
-   please refer to hardware installation procedure in the User's Manual.
-
-   We assume the user should be familiar with following documents.
-   - Serial-HOWTO
-   - Kernel-HOWTO
-
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-2. System Requirement
-   - Hardware platform: Intel x86 machine
-   - Kernel version: 2.4.x or 2.6.x
-   - gcc version 2.72 or later
-   - Maximum 4 boards can be installed in combination
-
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-3. Installation
-
-   3.1 Hardware installation
-   3.2 Driver files
-   3.3 Device naming convention
-   3.4 Module driver configuration
-   3.5 Static driver configuration for Linux kernel 2.4.x, 2.6.x.
-   3.6 Custom configuration
-   3.7 Verify driver installation
-
-
-   3.1 Hardware installation
-
-       There are two types of buses, ISA and PCI, for Smartio/Industio
-       family multiport board.
-
-       ISA board
-       ---------
-       You'll have to configure CAP address, I/O address, Interrupt Vector
-       as well as IRQ before installing this driver. Please refer to hardware
-       installation procedure in User's Manual before proceed any further.
-       Please make sure the JP1 is open after the ISA board is set properly.
-
-       PCI/UPCI board
-       --------------
-       You may need to adjust IRQ usage in BIOS to avoid from IRQ conflict
-       with other ISA devices. Please refer to hardware installation
-       procedure in User's Manual in advance.
-
-       PCI IRQ Sharing
-       -----------
-       Each port within the same multiport board shares the same IRQ. Up to
-       4 Moxa Smartio/Industio PCI Family multiport boards can be installed
-       together on one system and they can share the same IRQ.
-
-
-   3.2 Driver files
-
-       The driver file may be obtained from ftp, CD-ROM or floppy disk. The
-       first step, anyway, is to copy driver file "mxser.tgz" into specified
-       directory. e.g. /moxa. The execute commands as below.
-
-       # cd /
-       # mkdir moxa
-       # cd /moxa
-       # tar xvf /dev/fd0
-
-       or
-
-       # cd /
-       # mkdir moxa
-       # cd /moxa
-       # cp /mnt/cdrom/<driver directory>/mxser.tgz .
-       # tar xvfz mxser.tgz
-
-
-   3.3 Device naming convention
-
-       You may find all the driver and utilities files in /moxa/mxser.
-       Following installation procedure depends on the model you'd like to
-       run the driver. If you prefer module driver, please refer to 3.4.
-       If static driver is required, please refer to 3.5.
-
-       Dialin and callout port
-       -----------------------
-       This driver remains traditional serial device properties. There are
-       two special file name for each serial port. One is dial-in port
-       which is named "ttyMxx". For callout port, the naming convention
-       is "cumxx".
-
-       Device naming when more than 2 boards installed
-       -----------------------------------------------
-       Naming convention for each Smartio/Industio multiport board is
-       pre-defined as below.
-
-       Board Num.	 Dial-in Port	      Callout port
-       1st board	ttyM0  - ttyM7	      cum0  - cum7
-       2nd board	ttyM8  - ttyM15       cum8  - cum15
-       3rd board	ttyM16 - ttyM23       cum16 - cum23
-       4th board	ttyM24 - ttym31       cum24 - cum31
-
-
-       !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NOTE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-       Under Kernel 2.6 the cum Device is Obsolete. So use ttyM*
-       device instead.
-       !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NOTE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
-       Board sequence
-       --------------
-       This driver will activate ISA boards according to the parameter set
-       in the driver. After all specified ISA board activated, PCI board
-       will be installed in the system automatically driven.
-       Therefore the board number is sorted by the CAP address of ISA boards.
-       For PCI boards, their sequence will be after ISA boards and C168H/PCI
-       has higher priority than C104H/PCI boards.
-
-   3.4 Module driver configuration
-       Module driver is easiest way to install. If you prefer static driver
-       installation, please skip this paragraph.
-
-
-       ------------- Prepare to use the MOXA driver--------------------
-       3.4.1 Create tty device with correct major number
-          Before using MOXA driver, your system must have the tty devices
-          which are created with driver's major number. We offer one shell
-          script "msmknod" to simplify the procedure.
-          This step is only needed to be executed once. But you still
-          need to do this procedure when:
-          a. You change the driver's major number. Please refer the "3.7"
-             section.
-          b. Your total installed MOXA boards number is changed. Maybe you
-             add/delete one MOXA board.
-          c. You want to change the tty name. This needs to modify the
-             shell script "msmknod"
-
-          The procedure is:
-	  # cd /moxa/mxser/driver
-	  # ./msmknod
-
-          This shell script will require the major number for dial-in
-          device and callout device to create tty device. You also need
-          to specify the total installed MOXA board number. Default major
-          numbers for dial-in device and callout device are 30, 35. If
-          you need to change to other number, please refer section "3.7"
-          for more detailed procedure.
-          Msmknod will delete any special files occupying the same device
-          naming.
-
-       3.4.2 Build the MOXA driver and utilities
-          Before using the MOXA driver and utilities, you need compile the
-          all the source code. This step is only need to be executed once.
-          But you still re-compile the source code if you modify the source
-          code. For example, if you change the driver's major number (see
-          "3.7" section), then you need to do this step again.
-
-          Find "Makefile" in /moxa/mxser, then run
-
-	  # make clean; make install
-
-          !!!!!!!!!! NOTE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-	  For Red Hat 9, Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS3/ES3/WS3 & Fedora Core1:
-	  # make clean; make installsp1
-
-	  For Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS4/ES4/WS4:
-	  # make clean; make installsp2
-          !!!!!!!!!! NOTE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
-	  The driver files "mxser.o" and utilities will be properly compiled
-	  and copied to system directories respectively.
-
-       ------------- Load MOXA driver--------------------
-       3.4.3 Load the MOXA driver
-
-	  # modprobe mxser <argument>
-
-	  will activate the module driver. You may run "lsmod" to check
-	  if "mxser" is activated. If the MOXA board is ISA board, the
-          <argument> is needed. Please refer to section "3.4.5" for more
-          information.
-
-
-       ------------- Load MOXA driver on boot --------------------
-       3.4.4 For the above description, you may manually execute
-          "modprobe mxser" to activate this driver and run
-	  "rmmod mxser" to remove it.
-          However, it's better to have a boot time configuration to
-          eliminate manual operation. Boot time configuration can be
-          achieved by rc file. We offer one "rc.mxser" file to simplify
-          the procedure under "moxa/mxser/driver".
-
-          But if you use ISA board, please modify the "modprobe ..." command
-          to add the argument (see "3.4.5" section). After modifying the
-          rc.mxser, please try to execute "/moxa/mxser/driver/rc.mxser"
-          manually to make sure the modification is ok. If any error
-          encountered, please try to modify again. If the modification is
-          completed, follow the below step.
-
-	  Run following command for setting rc files.
-
-	  # cd /moxa/mxser/driver
-	  # cp ./rc.mxser /etc/rc.d
-	  # cd /etc/rc.d
-
-	  Check "rc.serial" is existed or not. If "rc.serial" doesn't exist,
-	  create it by vi, run "chmod 755 rc.serial" to change the permission.
-	  Add "/etc/rc.d/rc.mxser" in last line,
-
-          Reboot and check if moxa.o activated by "lsmod" command.
-
-       3.4.5. If you'd like to drive Smartio/Industio ISA boards in the system,
-          you'll have to add parameter to specify CAP address of given
-	  board while activating "mxser.o". The format for parameters are
-	  as follows.
-
-	  modprobe mxser ioaddr=0x???,0x???,0x???,0x???
-				|      |     |	  |
-				|      |     |	  +- 4th ISA board
-				|      |     +------ 3rd ISA board
-				|      +------------ 2nd ISA board
-				+------------------- 1st ISA board
-
-   3.5 Static driver configuration for Linux kernel 2.4.x and 2.6.x
-
-       Note: To use static driver, you must install the linux kernel
-             source package.
-
-       3.5.1 Backup the built-in driver in the kernel.
-          # cd /usr/src/linux/drivers/char
-          # mv mxser.c mxser.c.old
-
-          For Red Hat 7.x user, you need to create link:
-          # cd /usr/src
-          # ln -s linux-2.4 linux
-
-       3.5.2 Create link
-	  # cd /usr/src/linux/drivers/char
-	  # ln -s /moxa/mxser/driver/mxser.c mxser.c
-
-       3.5.3 Add CAP address list for ISA boards. For PCI boards user,
-          please skip this step.
-
-	  In module mode, the CAP address for ISA board is given by
-	  parameter. In static driver configuration, you'll have to
-	  assign it within driver's source code. If you will not
-	  install any ISA boards, you may skip to next portion.
-	  The instructions to modify driver source code are as
-	  below.
-	  a. # cd /moxa/mxser/driver
-	     # vi mxser.c
-	  b. Find the array mxserBoardCAP[] as below.
-
-	     static int mxserBoardCAP[]
-	     = {0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00};
-
-	  c. Change the address within this array using vi. For
-	     example, to driver 2 ISA boards with CAP address
-	     0x280 and 0x180 as 1st and 2nd board. Just to change
-	     the source code as follows.
-
-	     static int mxserBoardCAP[]
-	     = {0x280, 0x180, 0x00, 0x00};
-
-       3.5.4 Setup kernel configuration
-
-          Configure the kernel:
-
-            # cd /usr/src/linux
-            # make menuconfig
-
-          You will go into a menu-driven system. Please select [Character
-          devices][Non-standard serial port support], enable the [Moxa
-          SmartIO support] driver with "[*]" for built-in (not "[M]"), then
-          select [Exit] to exit this program.
-
-       3.5.5 Rebuild kernel
-	  The following are for Linux kernel rebuilding, for your
-          reference only.
-	  For appropriate details, please refer to the Linux document.
-
-	   a. cd /usr/src/linux
-	   b. make clean	     /* take a few minutes */
-	   c. make dep		     /* take a few minutes */
-	   d. make bzImage	     /* take probably 10-20 minutes */
-	   e. make install	     /* copy boot image to correct position */
-	   f. Please make sure the boot kernel (vmlinuz) is in the
-	      correct position.
-	   g. If you use 'lilo' utility, you should check /etc/lilo.conf
-	      'image' item specified the path which is the 'vmlinuz' path,
-	      or you will load wrong (or old) boot kernel image (vmlinuz).
-	      After checking /etc/lilo.conf, please run "lilo".
-
-	  Note that if the result of "make bzImage" is ERROR, then you have to
-	  go back to Linux configuration Setup. Type "make menuconfig" in
-          directory /usr/src/linux.
-
-
-       3.5.6 Make tty device and special file
-          # cd /moxa/mxser/driver
-          # ./msmknod
-
-       3.5.7 Make utility
-	  # cd /moxa/mxser/utility
-	  # make clean; make install
-
-       3.5.8 Reboot
-
-
-
-   3.6 Custom configuration
-       Although this driver already provides you default configuration, you
-       still can change the device name and major number. The instruction to
-       change these parameters are shown as below.
-
-       Change Device name
-       ------------------
-       If you'd like to use other device names instead of default naming
-       convention, all you have to do is to modify the internal code
-       within the shell script "msmknod". First, you have to open "msmknod"
-       by vi. Locate each line contains "ttyM" and "cum" and change them
-       to the device name you desired. "msmknod" creates the device names
-       you need next time executed.
-
-       Change Major number
-       -------------------
-       If major number 30 and 35 had been occupied, you may have to select
-       2 free major numbers for this driver. There are 3 steps to change
-       major numbers.
-
-       3.6.1 Find free major numbers
-	  In /proc/devices, you may find all the major numbers occupied
-	  in the system. Please select 2 major numbers that are available.
-	  e.g. 40, 45.
-       3.6.2 Create special files
-	  Run /moxa/mxser/driver/msmknod to create special files with
-	  specified major numbers.
-       3.6.3 Modify driver with new major number
-	  Run vi to open /moxa/mxser/driver/mxser.c. Locate the line
-	  contains "MXSERMAJOR". Change the content as below.
-	  #define	  MXSERMAJOR		  40
-	  #define	  MXSERCUMAJOR		  45
-       3.6.4 Run "make clean; make install" in /moxa/mxser/driver.
-
-   3.7 Verify driver installation
-       You may refer to /var/log/messages to check the latest status
-       log reported by this driver whenever it's activated.
-
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-4. Utilities
-   There are 3 utilities contained in this driver. They are msdiag, msmon and
-   msterm. These 3 utilities are released in form of source code. They should
-   be compiled into executable file and copied into /usr/bin.
-
-   Before using these utilities, please load driver (refer 3.4 & 3.5) and
-   make sure you had run the "msmknod" utility.
-
-   msdiag - Diagnostic
-   --------------------
-   This utility provides the function to display what Moxa Smartio/Industio
-   board found by driver in the system.
-
-   msmon - Port Monitoring
-   -----------------------
-   This utility gives the user a quick view about all the MOXA ports'
-   activities. One can easily learn each port's total received/transmitted
-   (Rx/Tx) character count since the time when the monitoring is started.
-   Rx/Tx throughputs per second are also reported in interval basis (e.g.
-   the last 5 seconds) and in average basis (since the time the monitoring
-   is started). You can reset all ports' count by <HOME> key. <+> <->
-   (plus/minus) keys to change the displaying time interval. Press <ENTER>
-   on the port, that cursor stay, to view the port's communication
-   parameters, signal status, and input/output queue.
-
-   msterm - Terminal Emulation
-   ---------------------------
-   This utility provides data sending and receiving ability of all tty ports,
-   especially for MOXA ports. It is quite useful for testing simple
-   application, for example, sending AT command to a modem connected to the
-   port or used as a terminal for login purpose. Note that this is only a
-   dumb terminal emulation without handling full screen operation.
-
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-5. Setserial
-
-   Supported Setserial parameters are listed as below.
-
-   uart		  set UART type(16450-->disable FIFO, 16550A-->enable FIFO)
-   close_delay	  set the amount of time(in 1/100 of a second) that DTR
-		  should be kept low while being closed.
-   closing_wait   set the amount of time(in 1/100 of a second) that the
-		  serial port should wait for data to be drained while
-		  being closed, before the receiver is disable.
-   spd_hi	  Use  57.6kb  when  the application requests 38.4kb.
-   spd_vhi	  Use  115.2kb	when  the application requests 38.4kb.
-   spd_shi	  Use  230.4kb	when  the application requests 38.4kb.
-   spd_warp	  Use  460.8kb	when  the application requests 38.4kb.
-   spd_normal	  Use  38.4kb  when  the application requests 38.4kb.
-   spd_cust	  Use  the custom divisor to set the speed when  the
-		  application requests 38.4kb.
-   divisor	  This option set the custom division.
-   baud_base	  This option set the base baud rate.
-
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-6. Troubleshooting
-
-   The boot time error messages and solutions are stated as clearly as
-   possible. If all the possible solutions fail, please contact our technical
-   support team to get more help.
-
-
-   Error msg: More than 4 Moxa Smartio/Industio family boards found. Fifth board
-              and after are ignored.
-   Solution:
-   To avoid this problem, please unplug fifth and after board, because Moxa
-   driver supports up to 4 boards.
-
-   Error msg: Request_irq fail, IRQ(?) may be conflict with another device.
-   Solution:
-   Other PCI or ISA devices occupy the assigned IRQ. If you are not sure
-   which device causes the situation, please check /proc/interrupts to find
-   free IRQ and simply change another free IRQ for Moxa board.
-
-   Error msg: Board #: C1xx Series(CAP=xxx) interrupt number invalid.
-   Solution:
-   Each port within the same multiport board shares the same IRQ. Please set
-   one IRQ (IRQ doesn't equal to zero) for one Moxa board.
-
-   Error msg: No interrupt vector be set for Moxa ISA board(CAP=xxx).
-   Solution:
-   Moxa ISA board needs an interrupt vector.Please refer to user's manual
-   "Hardware Installation" chapter to set interrupt vector.
-
-   Error msg: Couldn't install MOXA Smartio/Industio family driver!
-   Solution:
-   Load Moxa driver fail, the major number may conflict with other devices.
-   Please refer to previous section 3.7 to change a free major number for
-   Moxa driver.
-
-   Error msg: Couldn't install MOXA Smartio/Industio family callout driver!
-   Solution:
-   Load Moxa callout driver fail, the callout device major number may
-   conflict with other devices. Please refer to previous section 3.7 to
-   change a free callout device major number for Moxa driver.

+   This driver and installation procedure have been developed upon Linux Kernel
+   2.4.x and 2.6.x. This driver supports Intel x86 hardware platform. In order
+   to maintain compatibility, this version has also been properly tested with
+   RedHat, Mandrake, Fedora and S.u.S.E Linux. However, if compatibility problem
+   occurs, please contact Moxa at support at moxa.com.tw.
+
+   In addition to device driver, useful utilities are also provided in this
+   version. They are:
+
+    - msdiag
+		 Diagnostic program for displaying installed Moxa
+                 Smartio/Industio boards.
+    - msmon
+		 Monitor program to observe data count and line status signals.
+    - msterm     A simple terminal program which is useful in testing serial
+	         ports.
+    - io-irq.exe
+		 Configuration program to setup ISA boards. Please note that
+                 this program can only be executed under DOS.
+
+   All the drivers and utilities are published in form of source code under
+   GNU General Public License in this version. Please refer to GNU General
+   Public License announcement in each source code file for more detail.
+
+   In Moxa's Web sites, you may always find latest driver at http://www.moxa.com/.
+
+   This version of driver can be installed as Loadable Module (Module driver)
+   or built-in into kernel (Static driver). You may refer to following
+   installation procedure for suitable one. Before you install the driver,
+   please refer to hardware installation procedure in the User's Manual.
+
+   We assume the user should be familiar with following documents.
+
+   - Serial-HOWTO
+   - Kernel-HOWTO
+
+2. System Requirement
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+   - Hardware platform: Intel x86 machine
+   - Kernel version: 2.4.x or 2.6.x
+   - gcc version 2.72 or later
+   - Maximum 4 boards can be installed in combination
+
+3. Installation
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+3.1 Hardware installation
+=========================
+
+   There are two types of buses, ISA and PCI, for Smartio/Industio
+   family multiport board.
+
+ISA board
+---------
+
+   You'll have to configure CAP address, I/O address, Interrupt Vector
+   as well as IRQ before installing this driver. Please refer to hardware
+   installation procedure in User's Manual before proceed any further.
+   Please make sure the JP1 is open after the ISA board is set properly.
+
+PCI/UPCI board
+--------------
+
+   You may need to adjust IRQ usage in BIOS to avoid from IRQ conflict
+   with other ISA devices. Please refer to hardware installation
+   procedure in User's Manual in advance.
+
+PCI IRQ Sharing
+---------------
+
+   Each port within the same multiport board shares the same IRQ. Up to
+   4 Moxa Smartio/Industio PCI Family multiport boards can be installed
+   together on one system and they can share the same IRQ.
+
+
+3.2 Driver files
+================
+
+   The driver file may be obtained from ftp, CD-ROM or floppy disk. The
+   first step, anyway, is to copy driver file "mxser.tgz" into specified
+   directory. e.g. /moxa. The execute commands as below::
+
+       # cd /
+       # mkdir moxa
+       # cd /moxa
+       # tar xvf /dev/fd0
+
+or::
+
+       # cd /
+       # mkdir moxa
+       # cd /moxa
+       # cp /mnt/cdrom/<driver directory>/mxser.tgz .
+       # tar xvfz mxser.tgz
+
+
+3.3 Device naming convention
+============================
+
+   You may find all the driver and utilities files in /moxa/mxser.
+   Following installation procedure depends on the model you'd like to
+   run the driver. If you prefer module driver, please refer to 3.4.
+   If static driver is required, please refer to 3.5.
+
+Dialin and callout port
+-----------------------
+
+   This driver remains traditional serial device properties. There are
+   two special file name for each serial port. One is dial-in port
+   which is named "ttyMxx". For callout port, the naming convention
+   is "cumxx".
+
+Device naming when more than 2 boards installed
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+   Naming convention for each Smartio/Industio multiport board is
+   pre-defined as below.
+
+   ============ ===============       ==============
+   Board Num.	 Dial-in Port	      Callout port
+   1st board	ttyM0  - ttyM7	      cum0  - cum7
+   2nd board	ttyM8  - ttyM15       cum8  - cum15
+   3rd board	ttyM16 - ttyM23       cum16 - cum23
+   4th board	ttyM24 - ttym31       cum24 - cum31
+   ============ ===============       ==============
+
+.. note::
+
+   Under Kernel 2.6 and upper, the cum Device is Obsolete. So use ttyM*
+   device instead.
+
+Board sequence
+--------------
+
+   This driver will activate ISA boards according to the parameter set
+   in the driver. After all specified ISA board activated, PCI board
+   will be installed in the system automatically driven.
+   Therefore the board number is sorted by the CAP address of ISA boards.
+   For PCI boards, their sequence will be after ISA boards and C168H/PCI
+   has higher priority than C104H/PCI boards.
+
+3.4 Module driver configuration
+===============================
+
+   Module driver is easiest way to install. If you prefer static driver
+   installation, please skip this paragraph.
+
+
+   ------------- Prepare to use the MOXA driver --------------------
+
+3.4.1 Create tty device with correct major number
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+   Before using MOXA driver, your system must have the tty devices
+   which are created with driver's major number. We offer one shell
+   script "msmknod" to simplify the procedure.
+   This step is only needed to be executed once. But you still
+   need to do this procedure when:
+
+   a. You change the driver's major number. Please refer the "3.7"
+      section.
+   b. Your total installed MOXA boards number is changed. Maybe you
+      add/delete one MOXA board.
+   c. You want to change the tty name. This needs to modify the
+      shell script "msmknod"
+
+   The procedure is::
+
+	 # cd /moxa/mxser/driver
+	 # ./msmknod
+
+   This shell script will require the major number for dial-in
+   device and callout device to create tty device. You also need
+   to specify the total installed MOXA board number. Default major
+   numbers for dial-in device and callout device are 30, 35. If
+   you need to change to other number, please refer section "3.7"
+   for more detailed procedure.
+   Msmknod will delete any special files occupying the same device
+   naming.
+
+3.4.2 Build the MOXA driver and utilities
+-----------------------------------------
+
+   Before using the MOXA driver and utilities, you need compile the
+   all the source code. This step is only need to be executed once.
+   But you still re-compile the source code if you modify the source
+   code. For example, if you change the driver's major number (see
+   "3.7" section), then you need to do this step again.
+
+   Find "Makefile" in /moxa/mxser, then run
+
+	 # make clean; make install
+
+   ..note::
+
+	 For Red Hat 9, Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS3/ES3/WS3 & Fedora Core1:
+	 # make clean; make installsp1
+
+	 For Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS4/ES4/WS4:
+	 # make clean; make installsp2
+
+   The driver files "mxser.o" and utilities will be properly compiled
+   and copied to system directories respectively.
+
+------------- Load MOXA driver--------------------
+
+3.4.3 Load the MOXA driver
+--------------------------
+
+   ::
+
+	 # modprobe mxser <argument>
+
+   will activate the module driver. You may run "lsmod" to check
+   if "mxser" is activated. If the MOXA board is ISA board, the
+   <argument> is needed. Please refer to section "3.4.5" for more
+   information.
+
+------------- Load MOXA driver on boot --------------------
+
+3.4.4 Load the mxser driver
+---------------------------
+
+
+   For the above description, you may manually execute
+   "modprobe mxser" to activate this driver and run
+   "rmmod mxser" to remove it.
+
+   However, it's better to have a boot time configuration to
+   eliminate manual operation. Boot time configuration can be
+   achieved by rc file. We offer one "rc.mxser" file to simplify
+   the procedure under "moxa/mxser/driver".
+
+   But if you use ISA board, please modify the "modprobe ..." command
+   to add the argument (see "3.4.5" section). After modifying the
+   rc.mxser, please try to execute "/moxa/mxser/driver/rc.mxser"
+   manually to make sure the modification is ok. If any error
+   encountered, please try to modify again. If the modification is
+   completed, follow the below step.
+
+   Run following command for setting rc files::
+
+	 # cd /moxa/mxser/driver
+	 # cp ./rc.mxser /etc/rc.d
+	 # cd /etc/rc.d
+
+   Check "rc.serial" is existed or not. If "rc.serial" doesn't exist,
+   create it by vi, run "chmod 755 rc.serial" to change the permission.
+
+   Add "/etc/rc.d/rc.mxser" in last line.
+
+   Reboot and check if moxa.o activated by "lsmod" command.
+
+3.4.5. specify CAP address
+--------------------------
+
+   If you'd like to drive Smartio/Industio ISA boards in the system,
+   you'll have to add parameter to specify CAP address of given
+   board while activating "mxser.o". The format for parameters are
+   as follows.::
+
+	   modprobe mxser ioaddr=0x???,0x???,0x???,0x???
+				  |  |  |    |
+				  |  |  |    +- 4th ISA board
+				  |  |  +------ 3rd ISA board
+				  |  +------------ 2nd ISA board
+				  +-------------------1st ISA board
+
+3.5 Static driver configuration for Linux kernel 2.4.x and 2.6.x
+================================================================
+
+    Note:
+          To use static driver, you must install the linux kernel
+          source package.
+
+3.5.1 Backup the built-in driver in the kernel
+----------------------------------------------
+
+    ::
+
+       # cd /usr/src/linux/drivers/char
+       # mv mxser.c mxser.c.old
+
+       For Red Hat 7.x user, you need to create link:
+       # cd /usr/src
+       # ln -s linux-2.4 linux
+
+3.5.2 Create link
+-----------------
+    ::
+
+	  # cd /usr/src/linux/drivers/char
+	  # ln -s /moxa/mxser/driver/mxser.c mxser.c
+
+3.5.3 Add CAP address list for ISA boards.
+------------------------------------------
+
+    For PCI boards user, please skip this step.
+
+    In module mode, the CAP address for ISA board is given by
+    parameter. In static driver configuration, you'll have to
+    assign it within driver's source code. If you will not
+    install any ISA boards, you may skip to next portion.
+    The instructions to modify driver source code are as
+    below.
+
+    a. run::
+
+	# cd /moxa/mxser/driver
+	# vi mxser.c
+
+    b. Find the array mxserBoardCAP[] as below::
+
+	  static int mxserBoardCAP[] = {0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00};
+
+    c. Change the address within this array using vi. For
+       example, to driver 2 ISA boards with CAP address
+       0x280 and 0x180 as 1st and 2nd board. Just to change
+       the source code as follows::
+
+	  static int mxserBoardCAP[] = {0x280, 0x180, 0x00, 0x00};
+
+3.5.4 Setup kernel configuration
+--------------------------------
+
+    Configure the kernel::
+
+      # cd /usr/src/linux
+      # make menuconfig
+
+    You will go into a menu-driven system. Please select [Character
+    devices][Non-standard serial port support], enable the [Moxa
+    SmartIO support] driver with "[*]" for built-in (not "[M]"), then
+    select [Exit] to exit this program.
+
+3.5.5 Rebuild kernel
+--------------------
+
+    The following are for Linux kernel rebuilding, for your
+    reference only.
+
+    For appropriate details, please refer to the Linux document:
+
+        a. Run the following commands::
+
+	     cd /usr/src/linux
+	     make clean		     # take a few minutes
+	     make dep		     # take a few minutes
+	     make bzImage	     # take probably 10-20 minutes
+	     make install	     # copy boot image to correct position
+
+	f. Please make sure the boot kernel (vmlinuz) is in the
+	   correct position.
+	g. If you use 'lilo' utility, you should check /etc/lilo.conf
+	   'image' item specified the path which is the 'vmlinuz' path,
+	   or you will load wrong (or old) boot kernel image (vmlinuz).
+	   After checking /etc/lilo.conf, please run "lilo".
+
+	  Note that if the result of "make bzImage" is ERROR, then you have to
+	  go back to Linux configuration Setup. Type "make menuconfig" in
+          directory /usr/src/linux.
+
+
+3.5.6 Make tty device and special file
+--------------------------------------
+
+    ::
+       # cd /moxa/mxser/driver
+       # ./msmknod
+
+3.5.7 Make utility
+------------------
+
+    ::
+
+	  # cd /moxa/mxser/utility
+	  # make clean; make install
+
+3.5.8 Reboot
+------------
+
+
+
+3.6 Custom configuration
+========================
+
+    Although this driver already provides you default configuration, you
+    still can change the device name and major number. The instruction to
+    change these parameters are shown as below.
+
+a. Change Device name
+
+    If you'd like to use other device names instead of default naming
+    convention, all you have to do is to modify the internal code
+    within the shell script "msmknod". First, you have to open "msmknod"
+    by vi. Locate each line contains "ttyM" and "cum" and change them
+    to the device name you desired. "msmknod" creates the device names
+    you need next time executed.
+
+b. Change Major number
+
+    If major number 30 and 35 had been occupied, you may have to select
+    2 free major numbers for this driver. There are 3 steps to change
+    major numbers.
+
+3.6.1 Find free major numbers
+-----------------------------
+
+    In /proc/devices, you may find all the major numbers occupied
+    in the system. Please select 2 major numbers that are available.
+    e.g. 40, 45.
+
+3.6.2 Create special files
+--------------------------
+
+   Run /moxa/mxser/driver/msmknod to create special files with
+   specified major numbers.
+
+3.6.3 Modify driver with new major number
+-----------------------------------------
+
+   Run vi to open /moxa/mxser/driver/mxser.c. Locate the line
+   contains "MXSERMAJOR". Change the content as below::
+
+	  #define	  MXSERMAJOR		  40
+	  #define	  MXSERCUMAJOR		  45
+
+    3.6.4 Run "make clean; make install" in /moxa/mxser/driver.
+
+3.7 Verify driver installation
+==============================
+
+    You may refer to /var/log/messages to check the latest status
+    log reported by this driver whenever it's activated.
+
+4. Utilities
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+   There are 3 utilities contained in this driver. They are msdiag, msmon and
+   msterm. These 3 utilities are released in form of source code. They should
+   be compiled into executable file and copied into /usr/bin.
+
+   Before using these utilities, please load driver (refer 3.4 & 3.5) and
+   make sure you had run the "msmknod" utility.
+
+msdiag - Diagnostic
+===================
+
+   This utility provides the function to display what Moxa Smartio/Industio
+   board found by driver in the system.
+
+msmon - Port Monitoring
+=======================
+
+   This utility gives the user a quick view about all the MOXA ports'
+   activities. One can easily learn each port's total received/transmitted
+   (Rx/Tx) character count since the time when the monitoring is started.
+
+   Rx/Tx throughputs per second are also reported in interval basis (e.g.
+   the last 5 seconds) and in average basis (since the time the monitoring
+   is started). You can reset all ports' count by <HOME> key. <+> <->
+   (plus/minus) keys to change the displaying time interval. Press <ENTER>
+   on the port, that cursor stay, to view the port's communication
+   parameters, signal status, and input/output queue.
+
+msterm - Terminal Emulation
+===========================
+
+   This utility provides data sending and receiving ability of all tty ports,
+   especially for MOXA ports. It is quite useful for testing simple
+   application, for example, sending AT command to a modem connected to the
+   port or used as a terminal for login purpose. Note that this is only a
+   dumb terminal emulation without handling full screen operation.
+
+5. Setserial
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+   Supported Setserial parameters are listed as below.
+
+   ============== =========================================================
+   uart		  set UART type(16450-->disable FIFO, 16550A-->enable FIFO)
+   close_delay	  set the amount of time(in 1/100 of a second) that DTR
+		  should be kept low while being closed.
+   closing_wait   set the amount of time(in 1/100 of a second) that the
+		  serial port should wait for data to be drained while
+		  being closed, before the receiver is disable.
+   spd_hi	  Use  57.6kb  when  the application requests 38.4kb.
+   spd_vhi	  Use  115.2kb	when  the application requests 38.4kb.
+   spd_shi	  Use  230.4kb	when  the application requests 38.4kb.
+   spd_warp	  Use  460.8kb	when  the application requests 38.4kb.
+   spd_normal	  Use  38.4kb  when  the application requests 38.4kb.
+   spd_cust	  Use  the custom divisor to set the speed when  the
+		  application requests 38.4kb.
+   divisor	  This option set the custom division.
+   baud_base	  This option set the base baud rate.
+   ============== =========================================================
+
+6. Troubleshooting
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+   The boot time error messages and solutions are stated as clearly as
+   possible. If all the possible solutions fail, please contact our technical
+   support team to get more help.
+
+
+   Error msg:
+	      More than 4 Moxa Smartio/Industio family boards found. Fifth board
+              and after are ignored.
+
+   Solution:
+   To avoid this problem, please unplug fifth and after board, because Moxa
+   driver supports up to 4 boards.
+
+   Error msg:
+	      Request_irq fail, IRQ(?) may be conflict with another device.
+
+   Solution:
+   Other PCI or ISA devices occupy the assigned IRQ. If you are not sure
+   which device causes the situation, please check /proc/interrupts to find
+   free IRQ and simply change another free IRQ for Moxa board.
+
+   Error msg:
+	      Board #: C1xx Series(CAP=xxx) interrupt number invalid.
+
+   Solution:
+   Each port within the same multiport board shares the same IRQ. Please set
+   one IRQ (IRQ doesn't equal to zero) for one Moxa board.
+
+   Error msg:
+	      No interrupt vector be set for Moxa ISA board(CAP=xxx).
+
+   Solution:
+   Moxa ISA board needs an interrupt vector.Please refer to user's manual
+   "Hardware Installation" chapter to set interrupt vector.
+
+   Error msg:
+              Couldn't install MOXA Smartio/Industio family driver!
+
+   Solution:
+   Load Moxa driver fail, the major number may conflict with other devices.
+   Please refer to previous section 3.7 to change a free major number for
+   Moxa driver.
+
+   Error msg:
+              Couldn't install MOXA Smartio/Industio family callout driver!
+
+   Solution:
+   Load Moxa callout driver fail, the callout device major number may
+   conflict with other devices. Please refer to previous section 3.7 to
+   change a free callout device major number for Moxa driver.

+GSM 0710 tty multiplexor HOWTO
+==============================
+
+This line discipline implements the GSM 07.10 multiplexing protocol
+detailed in the following 3GPP document:
+
+	http://www.3gpp.org/ftp/Specs/archive/07_series/07.10/0710-720.zip
+
+This document give some hints on how to use this driver with GPRS and 3G
+modems connected to a physical serial port.
+
+How to use it
+-------------
+1. initialize the modem in 0710 mux mode (usually AT+CMUX= command) through
+   its serial port. Depending on the modem used, you can pass more or less
+   parameters to this command,
+2. switch the serial line to using the n_gsm line discipline by using
+   TIOCSETD ioctl,
+3. configure the mux using GSMIOC_GETCONF / GSMIOC_SETCONF ioctl,
+
+Major parts of the initialization program :
+(a good starting point is util-linux-ng/sys-utils/ldattach.c)::
+
+  #include <linux/gsmmux.h>
+  #define N_GSM0710	21	/* GSM 0710 Mux */
+  #define DEFAULT_SPEED	B115200
+  #define SERIAL_PORT	/dev/ttyS0
+
+	int ldisc = N_GSM0710;
+	struct gsm_config c;
+	struct termios configuration;
+
+	/* open the serial port connected to the modem */
+	fd = open(SERIAL_PORT, O_RDWR | O_NOCTTY | O_NDELAY);
+
+	/* configure the serial port : speed, flow control ... */
+
+	/* send the AT commands to switch the modem to CMUX mode
+	   and check that it's successful (should return OK) */
+	write(fd, "AT+CMUX=0\r", 10);
+
+	/* experience showed that some modems need some time before
+	   being able to answer to the first MUX packet so a delay
+	   may be needed here in some case */
+	sleep(3);
+
+	/* use n_gsm line discipline */
+	ioctl(fd, TIOCSETD, &ldisc);
+
+	/* get n_gsm configuration */
+	ioctl(fd, GSMIOC_GETCONF, &c);
+	/* we are initiator and need encoding 0 (basic) */
+	c.initiator = 1;
+	c.encapsulation = 0;
+	/* our modem defaults to a maximum size of 127 bytes */
+	c.mru = 127;
+	c.mtu = 127;
+	/* set the new configuration */
+	ioctl(fd, GSMIOC_SETCONF, &c);
+
+	/* and wait for ever to keep the line discipline enabled */
+	daemon(0,0);
+	pause();
+
+4. create the devices corresponding to the "virtual" serial ports (take care,
+   each modem has its configuration and some DLC have dedicated functions,
+   for example GPS), starting with minor 1 (DLC0 is reserved for the management
+   of the mux)::
+
+     MAJOR=`cat /proc/devices |grep gsmtty | awk '{print $1}`
+     for i in `seq 1 4`; do
+	mknod /dev/ttygsm$i c $MAJOR $i
+     done
+
+5. use these devices as plain serial ports.
+
+   for example, it's possible:
+
+   - and to use gnokii to send / receive SMS on ttygsm1
+   - to use ppp to establish a datalink on ttygsm2
+
+6. first close all virtual ports before closing the physical port.
+
+   Note that after closing the physical port the modem is still in multiplexing
+   mode. This may prevent a successful re-opening of the port later. To avoid
+   this situation either reset the modem if your hardware allows that or send
+   a disconnect command frame manually before initializing the multiplexing mode
+   for the second time. The byte sequence for the disconnect command frame is::
+
+      0xf9, 0x03, 0xef, 0x03, 0xc3, 0x16, 0xf9.

 Driver Interface
 ----------------
 
-open()		-	Called when a device is opened. May sleep
+======================= =======================================================
+open()			Called when a device is opened. May sleep
 
-close()		-	Called when a device is closed. At the point of

+close()			Called when a device is closed. At the point of
+			return from this call the driver must make no
 			further ldisc calls of any kind. May sleep
 
-write()		-	Called to write bytes to the device. May not
-			sleep. May occur in parallel in special cases. 
+write()			Called to write bytes to the device. May not
+			sleep. May occur in parallel in special cases.
 			Because this includes panic paths drivers generally
 			shouldn't try and do clever locking here.
 
-put_char()	-	Stuff a single character onto the queue. The
+put_char()		Stuff a single character onto the queue. The
 			driver is guaranteed following up calls to
 			flush_chars.
 
-flush_chars()	-	Ask the kernel to write put_char queue
+flush_chars()		Ask the kernel to write put_char queue
 
-write_room()	-	Return the number of characters that can be stuffed
+write_room()		Return the number of characters that can be stuffed
 			into the port buffers without overflow (or less).
 			The ldisc is responsible for being intelligent
- 			about multi-threading of write_room/write calls
+			about multi-threading of write_room/write calls
 
-ioctl()		-	Called when an ioctl may be for the driver
+ioctl()			Called when an ioctl may be for the driver
 
-set_termios()	-	Called on termios change, serialized against
+set_termios()		Called on termios change, serialized against
 			itself by a semaphore. May sleep.
 
-set_ldisc()	-	Notifier for discipline change. At the point this 
+set_ldisc()		Notifier for discipline change. At the point this
 			is done the discipline is not yet usable. Can now
 			sleep (I think)
 
-throttle()	-	Called by the ldisc to ask the driver to do flow
+throttle()		Called by the ldisc to ask the driver to do flow
 			control.  Serialization including with unthrottle
 			is the job of the ldisc layer.
 
-unthrottle()	-	Called by the ldisc to ask the driver to stop flow
+unthrottle()		Called by the ldisc to ask the driver to stop flow
 			control.
 
-stop()		-	Ldisc notifier to the driver to stop output. As with
+stop()			Ldisc notifier to the driver to stop output. As with
 			throttle the serializations with start() are down
 			to the ldisc layer.
 
-start()		-	Ldisc notifier to the driver to start output.
+start()			Ldisc notifier to the driver to start output.
 
-hangup()	-	Ask the tty driver to cause a hangup initiated
+hangup()		Ask the tty driver to cause a hangup initiated
 			from the host side. [Can sleep ??]
 
-break_ctl()	-	Send RS232 break. Can sleep. Can get called in
+break_ctl()		Send RS232 break. Can sleep. Can get called in
 			parallel, driver must serialize (for now), and
 			with write calls.
 
-wait_until_sent() -	Wait for characters to exit the hardware queue
+wait_until_sent()	Wait for characters to exit the hardware queue
 			of the driver. Can sleep
 
-send_xchar()	  -	Send XON/XOFF and if possible jump the queue with
+send_xchar()	  	Send XON/XOFF and if possible jump the queue with
 			it in order to get fast flow control responses.
 			Cannot sleep ??
