Device Drivers for DEC FDDI Controllers
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Pp
.Cd "fpa0 at pci?"
.Cd "fea0 at eisa?"
.Cd "fta0 at tc?"
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Nm fpa ,
.Nm fea
and
.Nm fta
device driver provides support for the DEC DEFPA PCI FDDI Controller,
the DEC DEFEA EISA FDDI Controller, and the DEC DEFTA TurboChannel FDDI
Controller, respectively. All variants of either
controller are supported including the DAS and SAS configurations.
.Pp
.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
.Bl -diag
.It "fea%d: error: desired IRQ of %d does not match device's actual IRQ (%d)"
The device probe detected that the DEFEA board is configured for a different
interrupt than the one specified in the kernel configuration file.
.It "fea%d: error: memory not enabled! ECU reconfiguration required"
The device probe found that no device memory had been configured on the
DEFEA. The DEFEA can be configured with no device memory, this driver
requires a mininum of 1K device memory be setup. The ECU (EISA Configuration
Utility) will need to be run to change the settings.
.El
.Sh CAVEATS
Normally, the device driver will not enable the reception of SMT frames.
However if the IFF_LINK1 flag is set, the device driver will enable the
reception of SMT frames and pass them up to the Berkeley Packet Filter for
processing.
