/* Debugging Driver for parallel printer port.

NOT a drop-in replacement for SCO's lp driver!
Includes ioctl calls to examine & set driver variables.
You can speed it up, slow it down, and generally tune
it to the conditions at hand.  The debugging mode gives
you the clues when something is wrong, and "lp2status"
lets you play.



Does not include the stty's that SCO supports!
Developed and tested on a Dell 486 running 3.2v4.0
To compile and link:








cc -c -Zp4 -K -M3 -DINKERNEL Driver.c
cp Driver.o /etc/conf/pack.d/lp2
cd /etc/conf/cf.d
./link_unix



Yoy will need an entry in /etc/conf/cf.d/mdevice:



lp2     ocIwi   icH             lp2     0       84      1       3       -1



(you can modify the "lp" entry for this purpose)



and in /etc/conf/sdevice.d/lp2:


ad



lp2     Y       1       2       4       7       378     37f     0       0



And of course if your printer is *not* at 378 or at interrupt 7,
you need to change a few things.



The corresponding sdevice entry for "lp" should be marked "N"



Minor node 0 is non-DeBugging.
Minor node 129 is for ioctl; see "lp2status.c".
Minor nodes 1-3 are for DeBugging; 1 is the lowest level, 3 is the highest



(note that when a driver uses printf, as this does in DeBug mode, all output 
is also written to /usr/adm/messages.)




Great fun to play with, and I have been using it for a long time now
as my normal parallel driver, but your mileage may vary, so caveat emptor
and cover your butt and all the other warnings.  This is, after all,
a driver, and in (more than) theory, has the potential to muck your
system up pretty well.  Read and understand *all* the code before
implementing.




Tony
