# since E1000 is the default networking device as mentioned at:

## UIO

# Userspace drivers: allow you to handle IRQs and do memory IO from userland through a /dev file.
#
# Superseded by the more featureful VFIO.
#
# Documentation/DocBook/uio-howto.tmpl contains actual userland examples
# for the generic examples under drivers/uio
#
# UIO interface in a nutshell:
#
# - blocking read / poll: waits until interrupts
# - write: call irqcontrol callback. Default: 0 or 1 to enable / disable interrupts.
# - mmap: access device memory

# All other UIO depend on this module.

# Try hacking QEMU's `hw/misc/arm_sysctl.c` with a printf:
#
#     static void arm_sysctl_write(void *opaque, hwaddr offset,
#                                 uint64_t val, unsigned size)

#         arm_sysctl_state *s = (arm_sysctl_state *)opaque;
#
#         switch (offset) {
#         case 0x08: /* LED */
#             printf("LED val = %llx\n", (unsigned long long)val);
#
# to obeserve when the callback is made. But beware that one of the LEDs
# has a heartbeat trigger by default (specified on dts), so it will produce a lot of output.
