No, the ranges should in general be correct; I've checked this with other devices. The register space of a single zs channel is indeed 4 bytes, but IIRC each channel has a separate device node, and there was some oddity which required both channels to use the register addresses specified in the first one, which is why the zs driver attaches two zsttys to the first device, and does not attach to the second zs instance. Jake can probably give more details on that. - Thomas -- Thomas Moestl <t.moestl@tu-bs.de> http://www.tu-bs.de/~y0015675/ <tmm@FreeBSD.org> http://people.FreeBSD.org/~tmm/ PGP fingerprint: 1C97 A604 2BD0 E492 51D0 9C0F 1FE6 4F1D 419C 776C
