2007-08-11 Thread Michael Bourgeous
Hello everyone, I'm working on a driver for older HDTV cards based on the TL880 chip. These cards typically have 16MB of their own memory, which is available to me over the PCI bus. Various functions of the card require me to manage this memory, allocating and freeing chunks of it as necessary.
