* epinit() had both explicit xcvr selection for 3c589 and a call
to epsetmedia(). The first is redundant; delete it, and EP_COAX_DEFAULT.
* Update comments to reflect 3c589 and 3c509B fixes. Fix typos.
Some of the stuff (e.g., rarpd, bootpd, dhcpd etc., libsa) still will
only support Ethernet. Tcpdump itself should be ok, but libpcap needs
lot of work.
For the detailed change history, look at the commit log entries for
the is-newarp branch.
to prepare for if_media, and to support EISA 3c59x cards:
* change epconfig() to take a short that encodes the chipset
type (3c509, or Demon/Vortex/Boomerang).
* add distinct 3c509 and Demon/Vortex/Boomerang media-sense
functions to back end.
* Add EISA match/attach support for the 3c592 and 3c597
(Demon) cards as well as the 3c509-comatibl EISA 3c509/3c579.
* Assume that ISA and ISA PnP cards are 3c509-style, until
proof to the contrary (e.g. large packet support).
Tested on 3c595, 3c590, and 3c509b. Not tested on 3c515 or Demon.
(RX_RESET, TX_RESET, GLOBAL_RESET).
Commands issued while a reset is in progress may be dropped. The driver
must wait until resets are complete; ep_complete_cmd() does so.
* Change RX_RESET, TX_RESET, GLOBAL_RESET to use ep_complete_cmd().
* Revert epconfig() to use inline RX_RESET, TX_RESET.
That avoids accidentally setting IFF_UP, which breaks both diskless boot,
and "halt" commands issued before the interface is brought up.
Newer boards (e.g., Vortex) take time to reset, and wedge on some machines.
Polling on S_COMMAND_IN_PROGRESS would be better, but that doesn't
work with xx_RESET commands on 3c509s.
CONFIG_CNTRL bits by making the "conn" argument to epconfig()
a u_int, not a u_int16_t, and by defining 100mbit media
bits in the upper 16 bits.
A redesigned interface that fixes this properly is in the pipeline.
comments in pr port-i386/2358: "if_ep/3C590 no longer working"
* Only call Vortex media-config code on PCI-attached devices, until
we know if it works on ISA and EISA large-packet devices also.
* Fix typo in printf of MAC address
look for 100mbit Xcvrs, print their names, add to ep_connectors.
* Print 10baseT as 10baseT, since media name (utp) is no longer a unique
transceiver type.
* Redo FIFO memory size printing, also show Tx/Rx split (xxx isa 3c509?).
* Print MAC address on a separate line, with 100Mbit media and fifo-ram
info it no longer fits on the same line as media types.
* Comment the fact that the "connection" media-selection code just doesn't
grok 100Mbit media.
* add code to look for 3c59x/3c90x media-select and autoconfig bits, though
we don't yet dynamically probe media when the autoconfig bit is set
(see previous bullet).
* XXX the whole connector/media code should be redone, perhaps a' la
the BSDI ifmedia design.
Add newline to `Interface disabled' printf and clean up formatting.
Change packet read/write code to align all reads and writes into
memory to an appropriate boundary for the I/O size. This also fixes
a bug where the trailing unaligned bytes (1-3 of them) would be
put in an additional mbuf even if there was enough space for them
in the one we were currently filling.
This has been tested on a 3c905 in an Alpha (32-bit I/O, alignment
required), a 3c905 in an i386 (32-bit I/O, alignment not required)
and a 3c509 in an i386 (16-bit I/O, alignment not required). It
should be tested on a 3c509 in an Alpha with an ISA bus, if somone
can manage to get the two items together.
There are still some bugs in the driver relating to initialisation;
on my Alpha with a 3c905 you need to do an `ifconfig ep0 down;
ifconfig ep0 up' after the initial ifconfig to make it start working.
Apparently there are also some problems with a 3c579 in an i386,
although a 3c905 in an i386 works just fine.
* Add a slot in the softc, ep_pktlenshift, to indicate that
a board implements ``large packets'' (FDDI-sized frames) and
therefore implicitly shifts the argument to packet-length commands
by two bits to fit a 13-bit length in an 11-bit command argument field.
* Change the reset of station-mask filterto be independent of bus-type
(e.g.,. for 3c515)
* Replace the "2044" constant used to disable TX threshold interrupts
on 3c509-generation cards with a #define. Use 2047 instead,
since that works on the large-packet cards (Vortex, Demon, Boomerang)
and 2044 doesn't.
* Add code to epconfing to probe for large-packet support,
set the softc appropriately, and shift packet sizes in commands
by ep_pktlenshift to compensate for the implicit shift.
* Tweak the epconfig() code to avoid hanging on startup.
Set the Tx threshold to interrupt when there's space for
a maximal-sized ether frame, then do epinit() then epstop(),
instead of just the Tx and Rx reset. Required on at least a 3c595.
Tested on a 3c595, but not on 3c509-generation hardware.
- No more distinction between i/o-mapped and memory-mapped
devices. It's all "bus space" now, and space tags
differentiate the space with finer grain than the
bus chipset tag.
- Add memory barrier methods.
- Implement space alloc/free methods.
- Implement region read/write methods (like memcpy to/from
bus space).
This interface provides a better abstraction for dealing with
machine-independent chipset drivers.
device and a printable "external name" (name + unit number), thus eliminating
if_name and if_unit. Updated interface to (*if_watchdog)() and (*if_start)()
to take a struct ifnet *, rather than a unit number.
bus-independent core driver. Tested on all three bus types, including
an isa 3c509 masquerading as an eisa device (use ep* at eisa? slot ? in
your kernel config file to catch this one).
XXX Driver still needs to be converted to <machine/bus.h>
