.Sh NAME
.Nm matcd
.Nd Matsushita (Panasonic) CD-ROM driver
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.sp
.Cd "controller matcd[0-4] at isa? port [?| addr]"
.br
.Cd "/dev/[r]matcd[0-15][a|c]
.br
.Cd "/dev/[r]matcdl[0-15][a|c]
.sp
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Nm matcd
driver controls the CR-562-x and CR-563-x CD-ROM drives made by
Matsushita-Kotobuki Electronics Industries, or Matsushita for short.
These CD-ROM drives have been sold under the Panasonic (which is a trade
name for Matsushita), Creative Labs (omniCD) and Reveal names, and have
been included in computers made by Tandy, AST, Packard Bell and many others.
These drives connect to the PC ISA bus through a proprietary host interface.
This interface can exist as a stand-alone ISA card, or can be included on
a sound card.
.Sh DRIVER CONFIGURATION
The
.Nm matcd
driver supports up to four host interfaces with up to four drives on each
interface. Audio activity may occur on all drives simultaneously. Data
read operations are limited to one drive per host interface at any instant.
To support multiple host interfaces, it is necessary to modify the
entries in the kernel configuration file. Normally your system comes
with the file \fI/usr/src/sys/i386/conf/GENERIC\fR. You should make
a copy of this file and give it the name of your system.
You can then edit the new file to include devices you want the system
to support and delete the device entries that you don't want.
In this file, you will find an entry like:
controller matcd0 at isa? port ?
To support two host interfaces, change the file so it reads:
controller matcd0 at isa? port ?
.br
controller matcd1 at isa? port ?
.br
(If you want to support up to three or four host interfaces, add
additional entries).
.if n .bp
.if t .sp
Note that the kernel configuration does not need to be modified to support
up to four drives on a single host interface. It is also not necessary to
have four drives on a single interface before adding a second interface.
By default,
.Nm matcd
searches for the CD-ROM host interface adapters by using a table of known I/O
ports (see \fIoptions.h\fR). Although this
is very flexible, it can cause problems when your system has other devices
that are located at the I/O ports that
.Nm matcd
is checking for CD-ROM host interfaces. In addition, checking multiple
locations can cause the boot process to take longer than it could.
.if t .bp
.if n .sp
If you are having these problems, you can solve them by explicitly specifying
where the CD-ROM host interfaces are located. For example, by default most
SoundBlaster cards have the Matsushita CD-ROM host interface
located at I/O port 0x230. If this is the case for your system, you could
change the entry in the kernel configuration file to specify that address
like this:
controller matcd0 at isa? port 0x230
With this change, the
.Nm matcd
driver will only look at I/O port 0x230 for the first CD-ROM host interface
and will not disturb any other I/O ports.
Once you have adjusted the kernel configuration file, it is necessary
to configure and recompile the kernel, install it and reboot for the
changes to take effect.
.Sh SUPPORTED HARDWARE
At this time, there are only two known drive models that work with the
.Nm matcd
driver:
.Bl -tag -width CR-123-X -compact -offset indent
.br
.It Matsushita CR-562-x
.br
.It Matsushita CR-563-x
.br
.El
Most resellers leave these original markings on the drives since the label
also has the FCC, VDE, CSA and RU certification marks.
Both of these drive models have motorized trays. There is also a custom
version of these drives that does not have the volume control or headphone
jack (seen on some Tandy computers), but this drive also works with
.Nm matcd.
The Matsushita CR-523-x CD-ROM drive is not usable with
.Nm matcd.
The CR-523 can also be identified from the front as it requires a CD-caddy.
Drives with IDE interfaces must use an IDE driver.
There is a new TEAC 4X CD-ROM drive on the market that supposedly uses the
Creative/Panasonic interface. It is not known if the TEAC drive is
command-set-compatible with the Matsushita drive so it may not work with
this driver.
.if t .sp
.if n .bp
The most common source of host interface adapters for these drives are in
products from Creative Labs, including SoundBlaster sound cards. There
are numerous models of SoundBlaster sound cards, and most of the newer cards
provide the appropriate interface, sometimes labeled as the
"Creative/Panasonic" interface.
The following host interface adapters are known to work with the
.Nm matcd
driver:
.Bl -tag -width LONGNAME -compact -offset indent
.It Creative
Sound Blaster Pro (SBPRO) (CT1330A)
.It Creative
Sound Blaster 16 (CT1730)
.It Creative
Sound Blaster 16 - cost-reduced (CT1740)
.It Creative
OmniCD upgrade kit adapter card - stand-alone CD (CT1810)
.It Creative
Sound Blaster 16 - 2-layer, cost-reduced (CT2230)
.It Creative
Sound Blaster 16 Value (SB16) - 2-layer, cost-reduced (CT2770)
.It Creative
PhoneBlaster SB16 + Sierra 14.4K Voice/FAX/Data/Speakerphone modem combo (CT3100)
.El
Caution: Some of these sound boards can be optionally manufactured to not
include the Panasonic/Creative interface, so check the board before buying
solely based on model number.
This is by no means a complete list as Creative Labs and other vendors
that produce sound cards with an identical Creative/Panasonic drive
interface release new versions of their adapters all the time.
.br
.if t .bp
.if n .sp
.Sh SUPPORTED OPERATIONS
The
.Nm matcd
driver supports block and character access. Partition "a" returns
2048-byte User Data blocks from data CDs. Partition "c" returns the full
2352-byte Frames from any type of CD, including audio CDs. (Partition
"c" cannot be "mounted" with cd9660 or other filesystem emulators.)
No other partitions are supported.
The
.Nm matcdl
devices work the same as the normal
.Nm matcd
devices except that the drive trays are locked and
remain locked until all of the devs on that drive are closed.
.if n .bp
.if t .sp
.Nm Matcd
accepts the numerous
.Fn ioctl
commands, including disk and functions related to CD-ROM audio and tray
control features. The commands are:
.sp
.Bl -tag -width CDIOCREADSUBCHANNELXXX -compact -offset indent
.It DIOCGDINFO
get disklabel.
.It DIOCGDPART
get partition.
.It DIOCWDINFO
set update disk.
.It DIOCSDINFO
set disklabel.
.It CDIOCREADSUBCHANNEL
get sub-channel information on current status of disc playing.
.It CDIOCREADTOCHEADER
reads table of contents summary.
.It CDIOCREADTOCENTRYS
reads length and other track information.
.It CDIOCPLAYTRACKS
plays audio starting at a track/index and stopping at a track/index.
.It CDIOCPLAYMSF
plays audio starting at a particular time offset.
.It CDIOCPAUSE
pauses a playing disc.
.It CDIOCRESUME
resumes playing a previously paused disc. Ignored if the drive is
already playing.
.It CDIOCSTOP
stops playing a disc.
.It CDIOCEJECT
opens the disc tray.
.It CDIOCCLOSE
closes the disc tray.
.It CDIOCGETVOL
returns the current volume settings of the drive.
.It CDIOCSETVOL
sets the volume settings of the drive.
.It CDIOCSETSTEREO
causes the left channel audio to be sent to the left channel output and the
right channel audio is sent to the right channel output. This is the
default state.
.It CDIOCSETMUTE
causes the audio output to be turned off. The drive continues to read
the audio on the disc and that audio is discarded until the audio is
turned back on.
.It CDIOCSETLEFT
causes the left channel audio to be sent to the left and right channel outputs.
.It CDIOCSETRIGHT
causes the right channel audio to be sent to the left and right channel
outputs.
.It CDIOCSETPATCH
causes the audio to be routed as specified in the provided bit maps.
.It CDIOCSETPITCH
changes the playback speed of the audio to increase or decrease
(as in Karaoke).
.It CDIOCCAPABILITY
report the capabilities of the drive and driver.
.El
.Pp
The
.Fn ioctl
commands defined above are the only ones that the
.Nm matcd
driver supports.
.bp
.Sh FILES
.Bl -tag -width /dev/(r)matcd0a_/dev/(r)matcdl0a -compact
.It Pa /dev/[r]matcd0a /dev/[r]matcdl0a
is used to access 2048-byte blocks of data on a CD-ROM disc
that is recorded in the Mode 1 Form 1 format.
.It Pa /dev/[r]matcd0c /dev/[r]matcdl0c
is used to access 2352-byte frames on a CD-ROM disc
recorded in any format.
.It Pa /usr/src/sys/i386/isa/matcd/*
Source code and compilation options for
.Nm matcd.
.El
The file \fIoptions.h\fR contains all of the compilation options.
By default, the driver is configured to run on the current version of
FreeBSD.
.Sh NOTES
.Pp
The Creative/Panasonic interface does not use interrupts or DMA
although the drives themselves are capable of using both.
If the disc tray is opened while one or more partitions are open, further
I/O to all partitions on the drive will be rejected until all partitions
are closed.
There must be a drive on each host interface that is addressed as
physical drive 0. If this isn't the case, the driver will be unable
to find the host interface or any of the connected drives.
Drives on a second host interface start are considered logical
drives 4-7, 8-11 on the third interface and 12-15 on the fourth.
The first drive on the second host interface is logical drive 4 regardless
of how many drives are present on the first host interface.
Host interfaces are numbered in the order they are declared in the
kernel configuration file, or in the order they are found if the kernel
configuration file uses "?" for the port address. Host interface
numbers are always contiguous.
