Configuration:
        MPC8260
        Linux 2.4.25
        IPIPE 0.9-03
        Xenomai 2.1 (latest SVN version)
        IMMR = 0xF0000000

Background:
        - Have Linux based device driver, providing SCC/FCC transparent
mode access

Problem:

I am new to Xenomai, and am quite exciting about the prospects of what
it can offer.  A user mode device driver sounds like a *nice* dream, but
I ed
 a few more details.  I have a Xenomai task that is able to intercept
the the SCC2 interrupts, but now I need to figure out how to access the
memory based MPC8260 registers. 

What is needed for a user mode Xenonmai task to access the MPC8260
register which live in 0xf00000000..0xf0020000?  I tried using
rt_misc_get_io_region(), but didn't get too far.  I think this routine
is designed to access I/O space, which doesn't exist on PPC processor.
Should I be using the mmap() system call?  Or, is there a better
approach?

In kernel space, I have no trouble accessing these registers.
