+
+The parport subsystem comprises ``parport`` (the core port-sharing
+code), and a variety of low-level drivers that actually do the port
+accesses.  Each low-level driver handles a particular style of port
+(PC, Amiga, and so on).
+
+The parport interface to the device driver author can be broken down
+into global functions and port functions.
+
+The global functions are mostly for communicating between the device
+driver and the parport subsystem: acquiring a list of available ports,
+claiming a port for exclusive use, and so on.  They also include
+``generic`` functions for doing standard things that will work on any
+IEEE 1284-capable architecture.
+
+The port functions are provided by the low-level drivers, although the
+core parport module provides generic ``defaults`` for some routines.
+The port functions can be split into three groups: SPP, EPP, and ECP.
+
+SPP (Standard Parallel Port) functions modify so-called ``SPP``
+registers: data, status, and control.  The hardware may not actually
+have registers exactly like that, but the PC does and this interface is
+modelled after common PC implementations.  Other low-level drivers may
+be able to emulate most of the functionality.
+
+EPP (Enhanced Parallel Port) functions are provided for reading and
+writing in IEEE 1284 EPP mode, and ECP (Extended Capabilities Port)
+functions are used for IEEE 1284 ECP mode. (What about BECP? Does
+anyone care?)
+
+Hardware assistance for EPP and/or ECP transfers may or may not be
+available, and if it is available it may or may not be used.  If
+hardware is not used, the transfer will be software-driven.  In order
+to cope with peripherals that only tenuously support IEEE 1284, a
+low-level driver specific function is provided, for altering 'fudge
+factors'.

+Global functions
+================
+
+parport_register_driver - register a device driver with parport
+---------------------------------------------------------------
+
+SYNOPSIS
+^^^^^^^^
+
+::
+
+	#include <linux/parport.h>
+
+	struct parport_driver {
+		const char *name;
+		void (*attach) (struct parport *);
+		void (*detach) (struct parport *);
+		struct parport_driver *next;
+	};
+	int parport_register_driver (struct parport_driver *driver);
+
+DESCRIPTION
+^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+In order to be notified about parallel ports when they are detected,
+parport_register_driver should be called.  Your driver will
+immediately be notified of all ports that have already been detected,
+and of each new port as low-level drivers are loaded.
+
+A ``struct parport_driver`` contains the textual name of your driver,
+a pointer to a function to handle new ports, and a pointer to a
+function to handle ports going away due to a low-level driver
+unloading.  Ports will only be detached if they are not being used
+(i.e. there are no devices registered on them).
+
+The visible parts of the ``struct parport *`` argument given to
+attach/detach are::
+
+	struct parport
+	{
+		struct parport *next; /* next parport in list */
+		const char *name;     /* port's name */
+		unsigned int modes;   /* bitfield of hardware modes */
+		struct parport_device_info probe_info;
+				/* IEEE1284 info */
+		int number;           /* parport index */
+		struct parport_operations *ops;
+		...
+	};
+
+There are other members of the structure, but they should not be
+touched.
+
+The ``modes`` member summarises the capabilities of the underlying
+hardware.  It consists of flags which may be bitwise-ored together:
+
+  ============================= ===============================================
+  PARPORT_MODE_PCSPP		IBM PC registers are available,
+				i.e. functions that act on data,
+				control and status registers are
+				probably writing directly to the
+				hardware.
+  PARPORT_MODE_TRISTATE		The data drivers may be turned off.
+				This allows the data lines to be used
+				for reverse (peripheral to host)
+				transfers.
+  PARPORT_MODE_COMPAT		The hardware can assist with
+				compatibility-mode (printer)
+				transfers, i.e. compat_write_block.
+  PARPORT_MODE_EPP		The hardware can assist with EPP
+				transfers.
+  PARPORT_MODE_ECP		The hardware can assist with ECP
+				transfers.
+  PARPORT_MODE_DMA		The hardware can use DMA, so you might
+				want to pass ISA DMA-able memory
+				(i.e. memory allocated using the
+				GFP_DMA flag with kmalloc) to the
+				low-level driver in order to take
+				advantage of it.
+  ============================= ===============================================
+
+There may be other flags in ``modes`` as well.
+
+The contents of ``modes`` is advisory only.  For example, if the
+hardware is capable of DMA, and PARPORT_MODE_DMA is in ``modes``, it
+doesn't necessarily mean that DMA will always be used when possible.
+Similarly, hardware that is capable of assisting ECP transfers won't
+necessarily be used.
+
+RETURN VALUE
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Zero on success, otherwise an error code.
+
+ERRORS
+^^^^^^
+
+None. (Can it fail? Why return int?)
+
+EXAMPLE
+^^^^^^^
+
+::
+
+	static void lp_attach (struct parport *port)
+	{
+		...
+		private = kmalloc (...);
+		dev[count++] = parport_register_device (...);
+		...
+	}
+
+	static void lp_detach (struct parport *port)
+	{
+		...
+	}
+
+	static struct parport_driver lp_driver = {
+		"lp",
+		lp_attach,
+		lp_detach,
+		NULL /* always put NULL here */
+	};
+
+	int lp_init (void)
+	{
+		...
+		if (parport_register_driver (&lp_driver)) {
+			/* Failed; nothing we can do. */
+			return -EIO;

+parport_unregister_driver - tell parport to forget about this driver
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+SYNOPSIS
+^^^^^^^^
+
+::
+
+	#include <linux/parport.h>
+
+	struct parport_driver {
+		const char *name;
+		void (*attach) (struct parport *);
+		void (*detach) (struct parport *);
+		struct parport_driver *next;
+	};
+	void parport_unregister_driver (struct parport_driver *driver);
+
+DESCRIPTION
+^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+This tells parport not to notify the device driver of new ports or of
+ports going away.  Registered devices belonging to that driver are NOT
+unregistered: parport_unregister_device must be used for each one.
+
+EXAMPLE
+^^^^^^^
+
+::
+
+	void cleanup_module (void)
+	{
+		...
+		/* Stop notifications. */
+		parport_unregister_driver (&lp_driver);
+
+		/* Unregister devices. */

+parport_enumerate - retrieve a list of parallel ports (DEPRECATED)
+------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+SYNOPSIS
+^^^^^^^^
+
+::
+
+	#include <linux/parport.h>
+
+	struct parport *parport_enumerate (void);
+
+DESCRIPTION
+^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Retrieve the first of a list of valid parallel ports for this machine.
+Successive parallel ports can be found using the ``struct parport
+*next`` element of the ``struct parport *`` that is returned.  If ``next``
+is NULL, there are no more parallel ports in the list.  The number of
+ports in the list will not exceed PARPORT_MAX.
+
+RETURN VALUE
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+A ``struct parport *`` describing a valid parallel port for the machine,
+or NULL if there are none.
+
+ERRORS
+^^^^^^
+
+This function can return NULL to indicate that there are no parallel
+ports to use.
+
+EXAMPLE
+^^^^^^^
+
+::
+
+	int detect_device (void)
+	{
+		struct parport *port;
+
+		for (port = parport_enumerate ();
+		port != NULL;
+		port = port->next) {
+			/* Try to detect a device on the port... */
+			...
+		}
+		}
+
+		...
+	}
+

+
+parport_enumerate is deprecated; parport_register_driver should be
+used instead.

+parport_register_device - register to use a port
+------------------------------------------------
+
+SYNOPSIS
+^^^^^^^^
+
+::
+
+	#include <linux/parport.h>
+
+	typedef int (*preempt_func) (void *handle);
+	typedef void (*wakeup_func) (void *handle);
+	typedef int (*irq_func) (int irq, void *handle, struct pt_regs *);
+
+	struct pardevice *parport_register_device(struct parport *port,
+						  const char *name,
+						  preempt_func preempt,
+						  wakeup_func wakeup,
+						  irq_func irq,
+						  int flags,
+						  void *handle);
+
+DESCRIPTION
+^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Use this function to register your device driver on a parallel port
+(``port``).  Once you have done that, you will be able to use
+parport_claim and parport_release in order to use the port.
+
+The (``name``) argument is the name of the device that appears in /proc
+filesystem. The string must be valid for the whole lifetime of the
+device (until parport_unregister_device is called).
+
+This function will register three callbacks into your driver:
+``preempt``, ``wakeup`` and ``irq``.  Each of these may be NULL in order to
+indicate that you do not want a callback.
+
+When the ``preempt`` function is called, it is because another driver
+wishes to use the parallel port.  The ``preempt`` function should return
+non-zero if the parallel port cannot be released yet -- if zero is
+returned, the port is lost to another driver and the port must be
+re-claimed before use.
+
+The ``wakeup`` function is called once another driver has released the
+port and no other driver has yet claimed it.  You can claim the
+parallel port from within the ``wakeup`` function (in which case the
+claim is guaranteed to succeed), or choose not to if you don't need it
+now.
+
+If an interrupt occurs on the parallel port your driver has claimed,
+the ``irq`` function will be called. (Write something about shared
+interrupts here.)
+
+The ``handle`` is a pointer to driver-specific data, and is passed to
+the callback functions.
+
+``flags`` may be a bitwise combination of the following flags:
+
+  ===================== =================================================
+        Flag            Meaning
+  ===================== =================================================
+  PARPORT_DEV_EXCL	The device cannot share the parallel port at all.
+			Use this only when absolutely necessary.
+  ===================== =================================================
+
+The typedefs are not actually defined -- they are only shown in order
+to make the function prototype more readable.
+
+The visible parts of the returned ``struct pardevice`` are::
+
+	struct pardevice {
+		struct parport *port;	/* Associated port */
+		void *private;		/* Device driver's 'handle' */
+		...
+	};
+
+RETURN VALUE
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+A ``struct pardevice *``: a handle to the registered parallel port
+device that can be used for parport_claim, parport_release, etc.
+
+ERRORS
+^^^^^^
+
+A return value of NULL indicates that there was a problem registering
+a device on that port.
+
+EXAMPLE
+^^^^^^^
+
+::
+
+	static int preempt (void *handle)
+	{
+		if (busy_right_now)
+			return 1;
+
+		must_reclaim_port = 1;
+		return 0;
+	}
+
+	static void wakeup (void *handle)
+	{
+		struct toaster *private = handle;
+		struct pardevice *dev = private->dev;
+		if (!dev) return; /* avoid races */
+
+		if (want_port)
+			parport_claim (dev);
+	}
+
+	static int toaster_detect (struct toaster *private, struct parport *port)
+	{
+		private->dev = parport_register_device (port, "toaster", preempt,
+							wakeup, NULL, 0,
+							private);
+		if (!private->dev)
+			/* Couldn't register with parport. */
+			return -EIO;
+
+		must_reclaim_port = 0;
+		busy_right_now = 1;
+		parport_claim_or_block (private->dev);
+		...
+		/* Don't need the port while the toaster warms up. */
+		busy_right_now = 0;
+		...

+parport_unregister_device - finish using a port
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+SYNPOPSIS
+
+::
+
+	#include <linux/parport.h>
+
+	void parport_unregister_device (struct pardevice *dev);
+
+DESCRIPTION
+^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+This function is the opposite of parport_register_device.  After using
+parport_unregister_device, ``dev`` is no longer a valid device handle.
+
+You should not unregister a device that is currently claimed, although
+if you do it will be released automatically.
+
+EXAMPLE
+^^^^^^^
+
+::
+
+	...
+	kfree (dev->private); /* before we lose the pointer */

+parport_claim, parport_claim_or_block - claim the parallel port for a device
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+SYNOPSIS
+^^^^^^^^
+
+::
+
+	#include <linux/parport.h>
+
+	int parport_claim (struct pardevice *dev);
+	int parport_claim_or_block (struct pardevice *dev);
+
+DESCRIPTION
+^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+These functions attempt to gain control of the parallel port on which
+``dev`` is registered.  ``parport_claim`` does not block, but
+``parport_claim_or_block`` may do. (Put something here about blocking
+interruptibly or non-interruptibly.)
+
+You should not try to claim a port that you have already claimed.
+
+RETURN VALUE
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+A return value of zero indicates that the port was successfully
+claimed, and the caller now has possession of the parallel port.
+
+If ``parport_claim_or_block`` blocks before returning successfully, the
+return value is positive.
+
+ERRORS
+^^^^^^
+
+========== ==========================================================
+  -EAGAIN  The port is unavailable at the moment, but another attempt
+           to claim it may succeed.

+-------------------------------------------
+
+SYNOPSIS
+^^^^^^^^
+
+::
+
+	#include <linux/parport.h>
+
+	void parport_release (struct pardevice *dev);
+
+DESCRIPTION
+^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Once a parallel port device has been claimed, it can be released using
+``parport_release``.  It cannot fail, but you should not release a
+device that you do not have possession of.
+
+EXAMPLE
+^^^^^^^
+
+::
+
+	static size_t write (struct pardevice *dev, const void *buf,

+::
+
+	#include <linux/parport.h>
+
+	int parport_yield (struct pardevice *dev)
+	int parport_yield_blocking (struct pardevice *dev);
+
+DESCRIPTION
+^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+When a driver has control of a parallel port, it may allow another
+driver to temporarily ``borrow`` it.  ``parport_yield`` does not block;
+``parport_yield_blocking`` may do.
+
+RETURN VALUE
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+A return value of zero indicates that the caller still owns the port
+and the call did not block.
+
+A positive return value from ``parport_yield_blocking`` indicates that
+the caller still owns the port and the call blocked.
+
+A return value of -EAGAIN indicates that the caller no longer owns the

+parport_set_timeout - set the inactivity timeout

+
+SYNOPSIS
+^^^^^^^^
+
+::
+
+	#include <linux/parport.h>
+
+	long parport_set_timeout (struct pardevice *dev, long inactivity);
+
+DESCRIPTION
+^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Set the inactivity timeout, in jiffies, for a registered device.  The
+previous timeout is returned.
+
+RETURN VALUE
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The previous timeout, in jiffies.
+
+NOTES
+^^^^^
+
+Some of the port->ops functions for a parport may take time, owing to
+delays at the peripheral.  After the peripheral has not responded for
+``inactivity`` jiffies, a timeout will occur and the blocking function
+will return.
+
+A timeout of 0 jiffies is a special case: the function must do as much
+as it can without blocking or leaving the hardware in an unknown
+state.  If port operations are performed from within an interrupt
+handler, for instance, a timeout of 0 jiffies should be used.
+
+Once set for a registered device, the timeout will remain at the set
+value until set again.

+DESCRIPTION
+^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+If port->modes contains the PARPORT_MODE_TRISTATE flag and the
+PARPORT_CONTROL_DIRECTION bit in the control register is set, this
+returns the value on the data pins.  If port->modes contains the
+PARPORT_MODE_TRISTATE flag and the PARPORT_CONTROL_DIRECTION bit is
