The device is a simple ALTERA chip, used for testing (for the mean time). I need to make sure that I can access it, and simply read data from it. Here's my question: Let's say I assign 0x1000 as the address portion (CSBA) Of MEM_STADDR1. What address should I mmap after that? (Using mmap only for initial development, Once I realize all I need To do I'll write a driver).
