Hi,

I would like to use a PCI Board (Data Acquisition) that only have linux
driver.

I don’t know how to port this driver, i have not found any litterature about
such porting.
I don’t have found any information regarding Data Acquisition in the DDK.

Is there a generic squeleton driver ?

Thanks for you help.

Use the LINUX driver as a source of information about the hardware
interface of your DAQ board. You could also try to re-use in some extend
the ISR of the LINUX driver …the rest is not portable. You have simply
to write a new resmgr from the sratch …

Yes … in the HTML docs of “Writing a Resource Manager”
