| 1 | This directory contains all the source code needed to create the |
| 2 | stand-alone utilites normally found in '/sys'. |
| 3 | Originally, the source code for each utility was contained |
| 4 | in one source file per utility. Most of the utilites remain that way |
| 5 | and much code is duplicated in each of the utilites. Some of the |
| 6 | utilites, because of changes and improvements, reference |
| 7 | a few routines which are found in library 'ulib.a'. |
| 8 | The newer utilities, and eventually all the utilities, are built |
| 9 | from a relatively small source file and from several routines |
| 10 | in 'ulib.a' and 'iolib.a'. The newer utilities also refernece |
| 11 | the '.h' files in this directory. |
| 12 | The '.h' files contain the 'define' statements necessary to |
| 13 | define all the device register offsets, function codes, status |
| 14 | and error code bits, etc. for the various devices. |
| 15 | 'ulib.a' contains the object code |
| 16 | for all the non-i/o-related functions common to the |
| 17 | utilities; 'iolib.a' contains the object code for i/o-related |
| 18 | functions common to the utilities. |
| 19 | 'iosrc.a' contains the source code for the objects in 'iolib.a'. |
| 20 | 'src.a' contains the source for the objects in 'ulib.a'. |
