5config NET_TULIP
6	bool "DEC - Tulip devices"
7	depends on (PCI || EISA || CARDBUS)
8	---help---
9	  This selects the "Tulip" family of EISA/PCI network cards.
10
11if NET_TULIP

13config DE2104X
14	tristate "Early DECchip Tulip (dc2104x) PCI support"
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.) 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.
29
30config DE2104X_DSL
31	int "Descriptor Skip Length in 32 bit longwords"
32	depends on DE2104X
33	range 0 31
34	default 0
35	---help---
36	  Setting this value allows to align ring buffer descriptors into their
37	  own cache lines. Value of 4 corresponds to the typical 32 byte line
38	  (the descriptor is 16 bytes). This is necessary on systems that lack
39	  cache coherence, an example is PowerMac 5500. Otherwise 0 is safe.
40	  Default is 0, and range is 0 to 31.
41
42config TULIP
43	tristate "DECchip Tulip (dc2114x) PCI support"
44	depends on PCI
45	select CRC32
46	---help---
47	  This driver is developed for the SMC EtherPower series Ethernet
48	  cards and also works with cards based on the DECchip
49	  21140 (Tulip series) chips.  Some LinkSys PCI cards are
50	  of this type.  (If your card is NOT SMC EtherPower 10/100 PCI
51	  (smc9332dst), you can also try the driver for "Generic DECchip"
52	  cards, above.  However, most people with a network card of this type
53	  will say Y here.) Do read the Ethernet-HOWTO, available from
54	  <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
55
56	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. The module will
57	  be called tulip.
58
59config TULIP_MWI
60	bool "New bus configuration"
61	depends on TULIP
62	---help---
63	  This configures your Tulip card specifically for the card and
64	  system cache line size type you are using.
65
66	  This is experimental code, not yet tested on many boards.
67
68	  If unsure, say N.
69
70config TULIP_MMIO
71	bool "Use PCI shared mem for NIC registers"
72	depends on TULIP
73	---help---
74	  Use PCI shared memory for the NIC registers, rather than going through
75	  the Tulip's PIO (programmed I/O ports).  Faster, but could produce
76	  obscure bugs if your mainboard has memory controller timing issues.
77	  If in doubt, say N.
78
79config TULIP_NAPI
80	bool "Use RX polling (NAPI)"
81	depends on TULIP
82	---help---
83	  NAPI is a new driver API designed to reduce CPU and interrupt load
84	  when the driver is receiving lots of packets from the card. It is
85	  still somewhat experimental and thus not yet enabled by default.
86
87	  If your estimated Rx load is 10kpps or more, or if the card will be
88	  deployed on potentially unfriendly networks (e.g. in a firewall),
89	  then say Y here.
90
91	  If in doubt, say N.
92
93config TULIP_NAPI_HW_MITIGATION
94	bool "Use Interrupt Mitigation"
95	depends on TULIP_NAPI
96	---help---
97	  Use HW to reduce RX interrupts. Not strictly necessary since NAPI
98	  reduces RX interrupts by itself. Interrupt mitigation reduces RX
99	  interrupts even at low levels of traffic at the cost of a small
100	  latency.
101
102	  If in doubt, say Y.
103
104config TULIP_DM910X
105	def_bool y
106	depends on TULIP && SPARC
107
108config DE4X5
109	tristate "Generic DECchip & DIGITAL EtherWORKS PCI/EISA"
110	depends on (PCI || EISA)
111	depends on VIRT_TO_BUS || ALPHA || PPC || SPARC
112	select CRC32
113	---help---
114	  This is support for the DIGITAL series of PCI/EISA Ethernet cards.
115	  These include the DE425, DE434, DE435, DE450 and DE500 models.  If
116	  you have a network card of this type, say Y and read the
117	  Ethernet-HOWTO, available from
118	  <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. More specific
119	  information is contained in
120	  <file:Documentation/networking/de4x5.txt>.
121
122	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. The module will
123	  be called de4x5.
124
125config WINBOND_840
126	tristate "Winbond W89c840 Ethernet support"
127	depends on PCI
128	select CRC32
129	select NET_CORE
130	select MII
131	---help---
132	  This driver is for the Winbond W89c840 chip.  It also works with
133	  the TX9882 chip on the Compex RL100-ATX board.
134	  More specific information and updates are available from
135	  <http://www.scyld.com/network/drivers.html>.
136
137config DM9102
138	tristate "Davicom DM910x/DM980x support"
139	depends on PCI
140	select CRC32
141	---help---
142	  This driver is for DM9102(A)/DM9132/DM9801 compatible PCI cards from
143	  Davicom (<http://www.davicom.com.tw/>).  If you have such a network
144	  (Ethernet) card, say Y.  Some information is contained in the file
145	  <file:Documentation/networking/dmfe.txt>.
146
147	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. The module will
148	  be called dmfe.
149
150config ULI526X
151	tristate "ULi M526x controller support"
152	depends on PCI
153	select CRC32
154	---help---
155	  This driver is for ULi M5261/M5263 10/100M Ethernet Controller
156	  (<http://www.nvidia.com/page/uli_drivers.html>).
157
158	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. The module will
159	  be called uli526x.
160
161config PCMCIA_XIRCOM
162	tristate "Xircom CardBus support"
163	depends on CARDBUS
164	---help---
165	  This driver is for the Digital "Tulip" Ethernet CardBus adapters.
166	  It should work with most DEC 21*4*-based chips/ethercards, as well
167	  as with work-alike chips from Lite-On (PNIC) and Macronix (MXIC) and
168	  ASIX.
169
170	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. The module will
171	  be called xircom_cb.  If unsure, say N.
