@section IO Control
-The clock driver must supply a handler for the IO control device driver
-entry point. This functionality is used by other components -- notably
-the Shared Memory Driver to install a wrapper for the clock interrupt
-service routine. The following shows the functionality required:
-
-@example
-@group
-rtems_device_driver Clock_control(
- rtems_device_major_number major,
- rtems_device_minor_number minor,
- void *pargp
-)
-@{
- error check the argument pointer parameter
-
- if the command is "ISR"
- invoke the clock interrupt service routine
- else if the command is "NEW"
- install the requested handler
-@}
-@end group
-@end example

+Prior to RTEMS 4.9, the Shared Memory MPCI Driver required a special
+IOCTL in the Clock Driver. This is no longer required and the Clock
+Driver does not have to provide an IOCTL method at all.
