The Comtrol SV11 requires no delays between accesses and uses PC I/O. Some drivers may need a 5uS delay .PP In the longer term this should become an architecture specific section so that this can become a generic driver interface for all platforms. For now we only handle PC I/O ports with or without the dread 5uS sanity delay. .PP The caller must hold sufficient locks to avoid violating the horrible 5uS delay rule. .SH "ABOUT THIS DOCUMENT" .PP This documentation is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version. .PP This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
