Please find below the user space skeleton code, to access the driver. It
was written by Robert Fitzsimons robfitz@273k.net The driver is based on
this user space interface.

In short, there is a ring buffer that is shared between the _device_ and
_user-space_. The ring buffer has a header, that is shared between the
_kernel_ and _user-space_.

The header specifies the offsets of various buffers in the ring buffer. In
Rx, after user space has read a buffer, the user space writes -1 to the
offset in the header. When the device has filled the buffer, the kernel
space writes the offset back to the header.
