The wax
GSC bus controller is a version of
hppa/lasi(4) with
limited functionality and no additional devices on the crystal. It is mainly
used as a GSC bus controller for additional onboard devices (e.g. 2nd RS232
or HIL) and sometimes add-on cards (such as a TR-9000 card for the HP
9000/712 models).
An incomplete list of machines that use the
wax
bus controller:
hppa/asp(4), hppa/gsc(4), hppa/intro(4), hppa/io(4), hppa/lasi(4), hppa/phantomas(4)
