Adds a RapidIO subsystem to the kernel. RIO is a switched fabric interconnect used in higher-end embedded applications. The curious can look at the specs over at http://www.rapidio.org The core code implements enumeration/discovery, management of devices/resources, and interfaces for RIO drivers. There's a lot more to do to take advantages of all the hardware features. However, this should provide a good base for folks with RIO hardware to start contributing.

RapidIO is a high speed switched fabric interconnect with
|
|
features aimed at the embedded market. RapidIO provides
|
|
support for memory-mapped I/O as well as message-based
|
|
transactions over the switched fabric network. RapidIO has
|
|
a standardized discovery mechanism not unlike the PCI bus
|
|
standard that allows simple detection of devices in a
|
|
network.

or to understand the subsystem internals.

Drivers are provided a set of calls in order

to interface with the subsystem to gather info

on devices, request/map memory region resources,

and manage mailboxes/doorbells.
