9	  This selects the "Tulip" family of EISA/PCI network cards.

14	tristate "Early DECchip Tulip (dc2104x) PCI support (EXPERIMENTAL)"
15	depends on PCI && EXPERIMENTAL
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.) Do read the Ethernet-HOWTO, available from
25	  <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
26
27	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. The module will
28	  be called de2104x.

30config TULIP
31	tristate "DECchip Tulip (dc2114x) PCI support"
32	depends on PCI
33	select CRC32
34	---help---
35	  This driver is developed for the SMC EtherPower series Ethernet
36	  cards and also works with cards based on the DECchip
37	  21140 (Tulip series) chips.  Some LinkSys PCI cards are
38	  of this type.  (If your card is NOT SMC EtherPower 10/100 PCI
39	  (smc9332dst), you can also try the driver for "Generic DECchip"
40	  cards, above.  However, most people with a network card of this type
41	  will say Y here.) Do read the Ethernet-HOWTO, available from
42	  <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
43
44	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. The module will
45	  be called tulip.
46
47config TULIP_MWI
48	bool "New bus configuration (EXPERIMENTAL)"
49	depends on TULIP && EXPERIMENTAL
50	help
51	  This configures your Tulip card specifically for the card and
52	  system cache line size type you are using.
53
54	  This is experimental code, not yet tested on many boards.
55
56	  If unsure, say N.
57
58config TULIP_MMIO
59	bool "Use PCI shared mem for NIC registers"
60	depends on TULIP
61	help
62	  Use PCI shared memory for the NIC registers, rather than going through
63	  the Tulip's PIO (programmed I/O ports).  Faster, but could produce
64	  obscure bugs if your mainboard has memory controller timing issues.
65	  If in doubt, say N.
66
67config TULIP_NAPI
68	bool "Use RX polling (NAPI)"
69	depends on TULIP
70	help
71	  NAPI is a new driver API designed to reduce CPU and interrupt load
72	  when the driver is receiving lots of packets from the card. It is
73	  still somewhat experimental and thus not yet enabled by default.
74
75	  If your estimated Rx load is 10kpps or more, or if the card will be
76	  deployed on potentially unfriendly networks (e.g. in a firewall),
77	  then say Y here.
78
79	  If in doubt, say N.
80
81config TULIP_NAPI_HW_MITIGATION
82	bool "Use Interrupt Mitigation"
83	depends on TULIP_NAPI
84	---help---
85	  Use HW to reduce RX interrupts. Not strictly necessary since NAPI
86	  reduces RX interrupts by itself. Interrupt mitigation reduces RX
87	  interrupts even at low levels of traffic at the cost of a small
88	  latency.
89
90	  If in doubt, say Y.
91
92config DE4X5
93	tristate "Generic DECchip & DIGITAL EtherWORKS PCI/EISA"
94	depends on PCI || EISA
95	select CRC32
96	---help---
97	  This is support for the DIGITAL series of PCI/EISA Ethernet cards.
98	  These include the DE425, DE434, DE435, DE450 and DE500 models.  If
99	  you have a network card of this type, say Y and read the
100	  Ethernet-HOWTO, available from
101	  <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. More specific
102	  information is contained in
103	  <file:Documentation/networking/de4x5.txt>.
104
105	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. The module will
106	  be called de4x5.
107
108config WINBOND_840
109	tristate "Winbond W89c840 Ethernet support"
110	depends on PCI
111	select CRC32
112	select MII
113	help
114	  This driver is for the Winbond W89c840 chip.  It also works with
115	  the TX9882 chip on the Compex RL100-ATX board.
116	  More specific information and updates are available from
117	  <http://www.scyld.com/network/drivers.html>.
118
119config DM9102
120	tristate "Davicom DM910x/DM980x support"
121	depends on PCI
122	select CRC32
123	---help---
124	  This driver is for DM9102(A)/DM9132/DM9801 compatible PCI cards from
125	  Davicom (<http://www.davicom.com.tw/>).  If you have such a network
126	  (Ethernet) card, say Y.  Some information is contained in the file
127	  <file:Documentation/networking/dmfe.txt>.
128
129	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. The module will
130	  be called dmfe.
131
132config ULI526X
133	tristate "ULi M526x controller support"
134	depends on PCI
135	select CRC32
136	---help---
137	  This driver is for ULi M5261/M5263 10/100M Ethernet Controller
138	  (<http://www.uli.com.tw/>).
139
140	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. The module will
141	  be called uli526x.
142
143config PCMCIA_XIRCOM
144	tristate "Xircom CardBus support"
145	depends on CARDBUS
146	---help---
147	  This driver is for the Digital "Tulip" Ethernet CardBus adapters.
148	  It should work with most DEC 21*4*-based chips/ethercards, as well
149	  as with work-alike chips from Lite-On (PNIC) and Macronix (MXIC) and
150	  ASIX.
151
152	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. The module will
153	  be called xircom_cb.  If unsure, say N.
