+RapidIO subsystem mport driver for IDT Tsi721 PCI Express-to-SRIO bridge.
+=========================================================================
+
+I. Overview
+
+This driver implements all currently defined RapidIO mport callback functions.
+It supports maintenance read and write operations, inbound and outbound RapidIO
+doorbells, inbound maintenance port-writes and RapidIO messaging.
+
+To generate SRIO maintenance transactions this driver uses one of Tsi721 DMA
+channels. This mechanism provides access to larger range of hop counts and
+destination IDs without need for changes in outbound window translation.
+
+RapidIO messaging support uses dedicated messaging channels for each mailbox.
+For inbound messages this driver uses destination ID matching to forward messages
+into the corresponding message queue. Messaging callbacks are implemented to be
+fully compatible with RIONET driver (Ethernet over RapidIO messaging services).
+
+II. Known problems
+
+  None.
+
+III. To do
+
+ Add DMA data transfers (non-messaging).
+ Add inbound region (SRIO-to-PCIe) mapping.
+
+IV. Version History
+
+  1.0.0 - Initial driver release.
