- new MD variable: sc_initmodemedia, 79c960 cards can select
between two ports, but this needs to be done in the MI init mode page
- new defines for PCnet-ISA cards (79c960)
does not supply media types, default to the "manual" type.
- Clean up the ETHER_CMP stuff slightly.
- Keep track of our carrier status, for media status requests.
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.
the base address. This allows for a more flexible layout of buffers
in the Lance's memory.
- Add a new element 'sc_saved_csr0' to am7990_softc. It's value is or-ed
with the current csr0 value in the am7990_intr() function. This allowes
for a 'deferred' interrupt sceme.
function is called when carrier is lost in lieu of a console message.
This is used by the sparc port to switch media types on Sun4m machines
if the appropriate link flags are set by ifconfig (see following commit
message). Should not affect ports that do not use sc_nocarrier().
naming conflicts between bus attachments on ports that can have
multiple instances of the LANCE.
Changed struct ifnet to have a pointer to the softc of the underlying
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.
remove their 'integrate' (usually defined to be 'static') keywords.
when lance drivers are split up by attachment, more than one file will
reference the copy/zero functions (i.e. not just the file that pulls in
am7990.c... and eventually inclusion of am7990.c should go away entirely).
