+=========================================================================
+RapidIO subsystem mport driver for IDT Tsi721 PCI Express-to-SRIO bridge.
+=========================================================================
+
+1. Overview
+===========
+
+This driver implements all currently defined RapidIO mport callback functions.
+It supports maintenance read and write operations, inbound and outbound RapidIO
+doorbells, inbound maintenance port-writes and RapidIO messaging.
+
+To generate SRIO maintenance transactions this driver uses one of Tsi721 DMA
+channels. This mechanism provides access to larger range of hop counts and
+destination IDs without need for changes in outbound window translation.
+
+RapidIO messaging support uses dedicated messaging channels for each mailbox.
+For inbound messages this driver uses destination ID matching to forward messages
+into the corresponding message queue. Messaging callbacks are implemented to be
+fully compatible with RIONET driver (Ethernet over RapidIO messaging services).
+
+1. Module parameters:
+
+- 'dbg_level'
+      - This parameter allows to control amount of debug information
+        generated by this device driver. This parameter is formed by set of
+        This parameter can be changed bit masks that correspond to the specific
+        functional block.
+        For mask definitions see 'drivers/rapidio/devices/tsi721.h'
+        This parameter can be changed dynamically.
+        Use CONFIG_RAPIDIO_DEBUG=y to enable debug output at the top level.
+
+- 'dma_desc_per_channel'
+      - This parameter defines number of hardware buffer
+        descriptors allocated for each registered Tsi721 DMA channel.
+        Its default value is 128.
+
+- 'dma_txqueue_sz'
+      - DMA transactions queue size. Defines number of pending
+        transaction requests that can be accepted by each DMA channel.
+        Default value is 16.
+
+- 'dma_sel'
+      - DMA channel selection mask. Bitmask that defines which hardware
+        DMA channels (0 ... 6) will be registered with DmaEngine core.
+        If bit is set to 1, the corresponding DMA channel will be registered.
+        DMA channels not selected by this mask will not be used by this device
+        driver. Default value is 0x7f (use all channels).
+
+- 'pcie_mrrs'
+      - override value for PCIe Maximum Read Request Size (MRRS).
+        This parameter gives an ability to override MRRS value set during PCIe
+        configuration process. Tsi721 supports read request sizes up to 4096B.
+        Value for this parameter must be set as defined by PCIe specification:
+        0 = 128B, 1 = 256B, 2 = 512B, 3 = 1024B, 4 = 2048B and 5 = 4096B.
+        Default value is '-1' (= keep platform setting).
+
+- 'mbox_sel'
+      - RIO messaging MBOX selection mask. This is a bitmask that defines
+        messaging MBOXes are managed by this device driver. Mask bits 0 - 3
+        correspond to MBOX0 - MBOX3. MBOX is under driver's control if the
+        corresponding bit is set to '1'. Default value is 0x0f (= all).
+
+2. Known problems
+=================
+
+  None.
+
+3. DMA Engine Support
+=====================
+
+Tsi721 mport driver supports DMA data transfers between local system memory and
+remote RapidIO devices. This functionality is implemented according to SLAVE
+mode API defined by common Linux kernel DMA Engine framework.
+
+Depending on system requirements RapidIO DMA operations can be included/excluded
+by setting CONFIG_RAPIDIO_DMA_ENGINE option. Tsi721 miniport driver uses seven
+out of eight available BDMA channels to support DMA data transfers.
+One BDMA channel is reserved for generation of maintenance read/write requests.
+
+If Tsi721 mport driver have been built with RAPIDIO_DMA_ENGINE support included,
+this driver will accept DMA-specific module parameter:
+
+  "dma_desc_per_channel"
+			 - defines number of hardware buffer descriptors used by
+                           each BDMA channel of Tsi721 (by default - 128).
+
+4. Version History
+
+  =====   ====================================================================
+  1.1.0   DMA operations re-worked to support data scatter/gather lists larger
+          than hardware buffer descriptors ring.
+  1.0.0   Initial driver release.
