Hi,
I have a couple of general questions regarding the
kernel: I'll appreciate any helpwhatsoever in this
regard.

1) what are the ".m" files? Is there any documentation
   available on them.
2) what purpose does the device_ops serve? what does
   "ops" stand for?
3) In the ioconf.c file I see an entry for a resource 

   as:
  { "at", RES_STRING,     { (long)"isa" }},
                            ^^^^^^^
   Shouldnt (long) be (char*) ?
4) what purpose does SYSINIT serve?

thanks for your time,
SJ
