accessed inputs through an interrupt to read from ISA bus.The memory
address in RTEMS maps directly to the memory address on the ISA bus and the
memory data also just mapped across. It was extremely easy.

Agreed. Should just be regular memory accesses if memory mapped and IO
instructions if in IO space. There are macros to access the IO instructions.

Be careful that all accesses to memory on the ISA bus are through volatile
variables.

No special set up needed to access them at all.

All you need to do is make sure the address range you want to access is
mapped by the MMU. Once mapped you can access the address space via a
normal pointer.

hope this example provides some hints. I also do not know if the MMU is set
up to cover the whole ISA bus address space. I think it is best to try and
see.
