Hi, re subject, would it be inappropriate to use read and write calls to communicate with a 32 bit wide interface? The fpga cannot accept byte accesses and nor do I want it to anyway. So, should I control the file position so it can only ever be on 32 bit boundaries and accept accesses in multiples of 4 bytes (returning errors otherwise), or would I be better off acessing via specific ioctl calls (passing in a pointer to a structure specifying the access) and not using normal read and write calls? The former seems unnatural and therefore probably plain wrong. If there are known examples of this in the source then please feel free to point me at them, thanks very much. Sorry again for footer - company will not remove :-(
