devmem2
http://free-electrons.com/pub/mirror/devmem2.c, by Jan-Derk Bakker
Very useful tool to directly peek (read) or poke (write) I/O addresses mapped in physical address space from a shell command line!
Very useful for early interaction experiments with a device, without having to code and compile a driver.
Uses mmap to /dev/mem.
Examples (b: byte, h: half, w: word)
devmem2 0x000c0004 h (reading)
devmem2 0x000c0008 w 0xffffffff (writing)
devmem is now available in BusyBox, making it even easier to use.
