+.SH CONFIGURATION
+The
+.I dsp56k
+device is a character device with major number 55 and minor
+number 0.
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The Motorola DSP56001 is a fully programmable 24-bit digital signal
+processor found in Atari Falcon030-compatible computers.
+The \fIdsp56k\fP special file is used to control the DSP56001, and
+to send and receive data using the bidirectional handshaked host
+port.
+.P
+To send a data stream to the signal processor, use
+.BR write (2)
+to the
+device, and
+.BR read (2)
+to receive processed data.
+The data can be sent or
+received in 8, 16, 24, or 32-bit quantities on the host side, but will
+always be seen as 24-bit quantities in the DSP56001.
+.P
+The following
+.BR ioctl (2)
+calls are used to control the
+\fIdsp56k\fP device:
+.TP
+.B DSP56K_UPLOAD
+resets the DSP56001 and uploads a program.
+The third
+.BR ioctl (2)
+argument must be a pointer to a \fIstruct dsp56k_upload\fP with members
+\fIbin\fP pointing to a DSP56001 binary program, and \fIlen\fP set to
+the length of the program, counted in 24-bit words.
+.TP
+.B DSP56K_SET_TX_WSIZE
+sets the transmit word size.
+Allowed values are in the range 1 to 4,
+and is the number of bytes that will be sent at a time to the
+DSP56001.
+These data quantities will either be padded with bytes containing zero,
+or truncated to fit the native 24-bit data format of the
+DSP56001.
+.TP
+.B DSP56K_SET_RX_WSIZE
+sets the receive word size.
+Allowed values are in the range 1 to 4,
+and is the number of bytes that will be received at a time from the DSP56001.
+These data quantities will either truncated,
+or padded with a null byte (\[aq]\e0\[aq]),
+to fit the native 24-bit data format of the DSP56001.
+.TP
+.B DSP56K_HOST_FLAGS
+read and write the host flags.
+The host flags are four
+general-purpose bits that can be read by both the hosting computer and
+the DSP56001.
+Bits 0 and 1 can be written by the host, and bits 2 and
+3 can be written by the DSP56001.
+.IP
+To access the host flags, the third
+.BR ioctl (2)
+argument must be a pointer
+to a \fIstruct dsp56k_host_flags\fP.
+If bit 0 or 1 is set in the
+\fIdir\fP member, the corresponding bit in \fIout\fP will be written
+to the host flags.
+The state of all host flags will be returned in
+the lower four bits of the \fIstatus\fP member.
+.TP
+.B DSP56K_HOST_CMD
+sends a host command.
+Allowed values are in the range 0 to 31, and is a
+user-defined command handled by the program running in the DSP56001.
