NOTE: At the moment, NetBSD does not support IMP, so
this manual page is not relevant.
The css
device provides a Local
Host/Distant Host interface to an IMP. It is normally used when
participating in the DARPA Internet. The controller itself is not accessible
to users, but instead provides the hardware support to the IMP interface
described in imp(4). The
configuration entry for the
imp(4) must also include the
pseudo-device as shown above.
- css%d: not alive.
- The initialization routine was entered even though the device did not
autoconfigure. This is indicates a system problem.
- css%d: can't initialize.
- Insufficient UNIBUS resources existed to initialize the device. This is
likely to occur when the device is run on a buffered data path on an
11/750 and other network interfaces are also configured to use buffered
data paths, or when it is configured to use buffered data paths on an
11/730 (which has none).
- css%d: imp doesn't respond, icsr=%b.
- The driver attempted to initialize the device, but the IMP failed to
respond after 500 tries. Check the cabling.
- css%d: stray output interrupt csr=%b.
- An interrupt occurred when no output had previously been started.
- css%d: output error, ocsr=%b icsr=%b.
- The device indicated a problem sending data on output.
- css%d: recv error, csr=%b.
- The device indicated a problem receiving data on input.
- css%d: bad length=%d.
- An input operation resulted in a data transfer of less than 0 or more than
1008 bytes of data into memory (according to the word count register).
This should never happen as the maximum size of a host-IMP message is 1008
bytes.
The css
interface appeared in
4.2BSD.
