13 config DE2104X

15 depends on PCI
16 select CRC32
17 ---help---
18 This driver is developed for the SMC EtherPower series Ethernet
19 cards and also works with cards based on the DECchip
20 21040 (Tulip series) chips. Some LinkSys PCI cards are
21 of this type. (If your card is NOT SMC EtherPower 10/100 PCI
22 (smc9332dst), you can also try the driver for "Generic DECchip"
23 cards, below. However, most people with a network card of this type
24 will say Y here.)
25
26 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. The module will
27 be called de2104x.

29 config DE2104X_DSL
30 int "Descriptor Skip Length in 32 bit longwords"
31 depends on DE2104X
32 range 0 31
33 default 0
34 ---help---
35 Setting this value allows to align ring buffer descriptors into their
36 own cache lines. Value of 4 corresponds to the typical 32 byte line
37 (the descriptor is 16 bytes). This is necessary on systems that lack
38 cache coherence, an example is PowerMac 5500. Otherwise 0 is safe.
39 Default is 0, and range is 0 to 31.

42 tristate "DECchip Tulip (dc2114x) PCI support"
43 depends on PCI
44 select CRC32
45 ---help---
46 This driver is developed for the SMC EtherPower series Ethernet
47 cards and also works with cards based on the DECchip
48 21140 (Tulip series) chips. Some LinkSys PCI cards are
49 of this type. (If your card is NOT SMC EtherPower 10/100 PCI
50 (smc9332dst), you can also try the driver for "Generic DECchip"
51 cards, above. However, most people with a network card of this type
52 will say Y here.)

54 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. The module will
55 be called tulip.

57 config TULIP_MWI
58 bool "New bus configuration"
59 depends on TULIP
60 ---help---
61 This configures your Tulip card specifically for the card and
62 system cache line size type you are using.
63
64 This is experimental code, not yet tested on many boards.
65
66 If unsure, say N.
67
68 config TULIP_MMIO
69 bool "Use PCI shared mem for NIC registers"
70 depends on TULIP
71 ---help---
72 Use PCI shared memory for the NIC registers, rather than going through
73 the Tulip's PIO (programmed I/O ports). Faster, but could produce
74 obscure bugs if your mainboard has memory controller timing issues.
75 If in doubt, say N.
76
77 config TULIP_NAPI
78 bool "Use RX polling (NAPI)"
79 depends on TULIP
80 ---help---
81 NAPI is a new driver API designed to reduce CPU and interrupt load
82 when the driver is receiving lots of packets from the card. It is
83 still somewhat experimental and thus not yet enabled by default.
84
85 If your estimated Rx load is 10kpps or more, or if the card will be
86 deployed on potentially unfriendly networks (e.g. in a firewall),
87 then say Y here.
88
89 If in doubt, say N.
90
91 config TULIP_NAPI_HW_MITIGATION
92 bool "Use Interrupt Mitigation"
93 depends on TULIP_NAPI
94 ---help---
95 Use HW to reduce RX interrupts. Not strictly necessary since NAPI
96 reduces RX interrupts by itself. Interrupt mitigation reduces RX
97 interrupts even at low levels of traffic at the cost of a small
98 latency.
99
100 If in doubt, say Y.

110 select CRC32
111 ---help---
112 This is support for the DIGITAL series of PCI/EISA Ethernet cards.
113 These include the DE425, DE434, DE435, DE450 and DE500 models. If
114 you have a network card of this type, say Y. More specific
115 information is contained in
116 <file:Documentation/networking/device_drivers/dec/de4x5.txt>.
117
118 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. The module will
119 be called de4x5.

123 depends on PCI
124 select CRC32
125 select MII
126 ---help---
127 This driver is for the Winbond W89c840 chip. It also works with
128 the TX9882 chip on the Compex RL100-ATX board.
129 More specific information and updates are available from
130 <http://www.scyld.com/network/drivers.html>.

132 config DM9102
133 tristate "Davicom DM910x/DM980x support"
134 depends on PCI
135 select CRC32
136 ---help---
137 This driver is for DM9102(A)/DM9132/DM9801 compatible PCI cards from
138 Davicom (<http://www.davicom.com.tw/>). If you have such a network
139 (Ethernet) card, say Y. Some information is contained in the file
140 <file:Documentation/networking/device_drivers/dec/dmfe.txt>.
141
142 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. The module will
143 be called dmfe.

150 This driver is for ULi M5261/M5263 10/100M Ethernet Controller
151 (<http://www.nvidia.com/page/uli_drivers.html>).
152
153 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. The module will
154 be called uli526x.
155
156 config PCMCIA_XIRCOM
157 tristate "Xircom CardBus support"
158 depends on CARDBUS
159 ---help---
160 This driver is for the Digital "Tulip" Ethernet CardBus adapters.
161 It should work with most DEC 21*4*-based chips/ethercards, as well
162 as with work-alike chips from Lite-On (PNIC) and Macronix (MXIC) and
163 ASIX.
164
165 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. The module will
166 be called xircom_cb. If unsure, say N.
