pcnet_cs - generic NS8390-based PCMCIA Ethernet Driver
insmod pcnet_cs.o [pc_debug=n] [irq_list=i,j,...]
[if_port=n] [use_big_buf=n] [mem_speed=n] [delay_output=n]
[delay_time=n] [hw_addr=n,n,n,n,n,n]
Pcnet_cs is a driver for all NS8390-based PCMCIA ethernet
cards. It can use either polled IO or a shared memory
window to exchange data with the card. The driver first
tests for a shared memory buffer, falling back on polled
IO if the memory test fails. It replaces the de650_cs and
ibmcc_cs drivers in previous releases. When this driver
is bound to a card, it allocates the next available ether
net device (eth0..eth#). This device name will be
reported in the kernel log file, and passed on to card
mgr(8).
pc_debug=n
Selects the PCMCIA debugging level. This parameter
is only available if the module is compiled with
debugging enabled. A non-zero value enables debug
ging.
irq_list=i,j,...
Specifies the set of interrupts that may be allo
cated by this driver.
if_port=n
Selects the transceiver type, for Socket EA and IBM
CCAE cards. 1 is 10baseT (twisted pair), and 2 is
10base2 (BNC, or thin net). The default is 1
(10baseT).
use_big_buf=n
For Socket EA cards, a flag indicating if the
driver should use the large (64K) packet buffer.
The default is 1 (true).
mem_speed=n
Sets the access speed of the shared memory window,
in nanoseconds. The default is 0 (i.e., no extra
wait states). Values of up to 1000 are legal.
delay_output=n
Specifies that a delay should be inserted after a
polled IO block output. This is turned on by
default for Accton and Socket EA cards.
delay_time=n
Specifies the length of the delay_output delay, in
microseconds. The default is 4.
hw_addr=n,n,n,n,n,n
For cards whose hardware ethernet addresses can't
be identified by the current driver, this is a hack
for hardwiring a specific address. The argument
should consist of exactly six byte-sized numbers,
separated by commas, with no spaces. Numbers may
be in decimal or hex ('0xNN').
eth#: interrupt(s) dropped!
Indicates that the driver did not receive an inter
rupt notification for some reason. The driver will
poll the card (with a significant performance
penalty) if the problem persists. The most likely
cause is an interrupt conflict and/or host bridge
configuration problem.
