ZCOM Tables and Data Structures
Interface Table
Each element of the subchannel specification array has the following
structure:
IFIRQBP, IRESPBP, ISTDTBP - DMA reply buffer pointers (char *)
These fields point to the corresponding buffers kept at the end of the
interface table that are used by the DAM for DMA operations. The actual
values of these pointers are initialized at ZCOM subsystem initialization
timebytheLDM.ThesepointersarechosenbytheLDMsothateach
buffer is 64-byte aligned. (The buffers must be aligned so that the DMA
may read/write directly to them). These fields are not used for ACC
E1/T1 cards.
IFPNTR - Pointer to active physical terminal table
This field contains the address of the currently active physical terminal
table entry within this interface table. This field is not used for ACC
E1/T1 cards It is maintained by the DAM.
IFCMDBUF - Current backplane command buffer
This field is t he buffer a rea for DMA transfer of a backplane command to
theMuxinterfacecard.Theactualareabeingusedisoffsetbythe
number of bytes specified in IFBOFF. This area is accessed by the
pointer field IFCMDBP.
