5+This is the README using the ITE IT8705 and IT8712 CIR port for LIRC.
6+
7+The IT8705 for example can be found on the ECS K7S5A.
8+
9+The driver supports receiving (MODE2) and sending (PULSE). It seems
10+sending 'LIRC_CAN_SEND_PULSE' isn't optimal for this type of hardware.
11+But because I don't know how to implement 'LIRC_CAN_SEND_CODE', I did
12+it this way.
13+
14+Attention:
15+Because of missing hardware, the following hasn't been tested:
16+a) receiving with demodulator enabled,
17+b) sending (debugging output looks good) and
18+c) using IT8712
19+
20+Any help and/or additions etc. is welcome.
21+
22+lirc_it87 knows about the following module-parameters:
23+MODULE_DESCRIPTION("LIRC driver for ITE IT8712/IT8705 CIR port");
24+MODULE_PARM(io, "i");
25+MODULE_PARM_DESC(io, "I/O base address (default: 0x310)");
26+MODULE_PARM(irq, "i");
27+MODULE_PARM_DESC(irq, "Interrupt (1,3-12) (default: 7)");
28+MODULE_PARM(it87_enable_demodulator, "i");
29+MODULE_PARM_DESC(it87_enable_demodulator, "Receiver demodulator
30+ enable/disable (1/0), default: 0");
31+
32+
33+Usage:
34+
35+a) io and irq:
36+
37+If the driver finds the IT8705/12-CIR port initialized, io and irq of
38+the preinitialized hardware is used by the driver. If both values are
39+read 0x0 from the hardware, the default or given value is used.
40+Note: I experienced using irq=3. The driver initialized without any
41+problems, but no irqs are recognized by the system. I had to switch
42+back to default, irq 7.
43+
44+b) it87_enable_demodulator:
45+
46+The demodulator for the receiver can be switched off (default within
47+the driver). If you need the demodulator simple enable it by the
48+following way: it87_enable_demodulator=1.
