NAME
hpc —
SGI High performance Peripheral
Controller
SYNOPSIS
hpc0 at gio0 addr 0x1fb80000
hpc1 at gio0 addr 0x1fb00000
hpc2 at gio0 addr 0x1fb98000
DESCRIPTION
hpc interfaces the peripherals connected
to it to the gio(4) bus. hpc is found on the
Indigo, Indy, Challenge S, Challenge M, and Indigo2 machines.
There are three different numerical revisions of the
hpc controller. Revisions 1 and 1.5 exist on Indigo
machines, as well as GIO32bis expansion cards such as the E++ SEEQ-based
Ethernet adapter. Revision 1.5 supports bi-endian operation. Revision 3
exists on Indy, Challenge S, Indigo2, and Challenge M systems. It is
possible to have an on-board HPC3 as well as HPC1.5-based GIO32bis adapters
in the Indy and Challenge S systems. Additionally, the Challenge S may have
a secondary HPC3 if the IOPLUS (a.k.a. ''mezzanine'') board is
installed.
