zalon
I believe Zalon is the chip that drives the f/w scsi on the core io card in K series and possible others.

Hi all,
I'm working on the ncr7xx driver and plan to add support for the Bluefish GSC SCSI interface. I looked at the Mach kernel and found that before accessing the c720 it is initializing something called zalon.
What is that thing? Should one care about it or just blindly do the same as the Mach kernel does?

Zalon is really just some glue so you can interface some PC-like controller chips with GSC. I think it handles interrupts in a parisc fashion.
We have no docs, and the only reason I know this is that a little birdy told me.
