Project Goal
Provide a generic framework for handling devices in userspace. The device driver is split into a small kernel part, which contains the device setup and the primary interrupt handling, and a user space part, which handles the device functionality.
UIO is part of the OSADL project "Universal Fieldbus and Industrial I/O Framework" and represents its kernel interface.
Code
The UIO kernel patches have already been merged into Andrew Morton's testing kernel (-mm); in addition, they are available 
here.
An user space driver built on top of the UIO is available here.
