New manpages for various Ethernet drivers, that I didn't see manpages for.

Manpage police???  Looking kinda bored there aren't you?  Need something
to do?  :-)  I'm sure there's work here to be done.

Inspired by:	Joerg

2.2-R candidate after Mike gets thru with them.

DEC DC21x4x Ethernet device driver
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Cd "device de0"
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Nm
driver provides support for the Ethernet adapters based on the Digital
Equipment DC21x4x based self-contained Ethernet chips.
.Pp
It supports the DEC PCI DE435 card, DEC EISA DE425, DEC DE450, SMC 9332,
ZNYX ZX314, and others based on the 21040 and 21041 Ethernet controllers or
the 21140[A] Fast 100Base-T Ethernet controller.
.Pp
.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
.Bl -diag
.It "de%d: waking device from sleep/snooze mode"
The 21041 and 21140A chips support suppending the operation of the card.
.It "de%d: error: desired IRQ of %d does not match device's actual IRQ of %d"
The device probe detected that the board is configured for a different
interrupt than the one specified in the kernel configuration file.
.It "de%d: not configured; limit of %d reached or exceeded"
There is a limit of 32
.Nm
devices allowed in a single machine.
.It "de%d: not configured; 21040 pass 2.0 required (%d.%d found)"
.It "de%d: not configured; 21140 pass 1.1 required (%d.%d found)"
Certain revisions of the chipset are not supported by this driver.
.El
.Pp
.Sh CAVEATS
Since the 21040 is available on both EISA and PCI boards, one must be careful
in how defines the 21040 in the kernel config file.
.Pp
.Sh BUGS
Currently the driver does not support multicast.

EtherExpress ethernet device driver

.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Nm
driver provides support for the 16-bit Intel EtherExpress Ethernet
card based on the Intel i82586 chip.
.Pp
If the IRQ is autodetected if the kernel configuration file has "irq?" or
doesn't specify an IRQ at all.
.Pp
.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
.Bl -diag
.It "ix%d: WARNING: board is configured for IRQ %d, using %d"
The IRQ probed from the EEPROM does not match that specified in the kernel
configuration file. The IRQ specified in the kernel configuration file will
be used in this case.
.It "ix%d: invalid irq (%d)"
An invalid IRQ was specified. This is a fatal error.
.It "ix%d: ixstart: Packet length=%d > MTU=%d"
The length of the Ethernet packet read was larger than the maxium transfer
unit allowed. This message suggests an error in the driver. It probably
should be concidered fatal and the driver shut down. Currently this does
not happen though.
.It "ix%d: device timeout"
The device has stopped responding to the network, or there is a problem with
the network connection (cable). Make sure the network connection in use
is the same one the probe read from the EEPROM.
.El
.Pp
.Sh CAVEATS
The driver will use the IRQ specified in the kernel configuration file
if it does not match the board setting.
The type of network connector used (AUI, BNC, TPE) is probed from the EEPROM.
If this does not match the interface actually in use, timeout errors will
occur.

.Sh BUGS
Currently the driver does not support multicast.

There is a limit of the number of
.Nm
devices allowed in a single machine.
.It "le%d: lemac configuration error: expected IRQ 0x%x actual 0x%x"
The probed IRQ value did not match the value specified in the kernel
configuration file. Either the card should be changed, or a new kernel
should be built.
.It "le%d: lemac configuration error: expected iomem 0x%x actual 0x%x"
The probed iomem value did not match the value specified in the kernel
configuration file. Either the card should be changed, or a new kernel
should be built.
.It "le%d: reset: EEPROM checksum failed (0x%x)"
The
.Nm
driver depends on the information in the EEPROM being correct.
If this error occurs, please recofigure the card.
.It "le%d: fatal RXD error, attempting recovery"
.It "le%d: recovery failed -- board disabled"
A receive error occurred. The driver will attempt to recover from this
error. However it it cannot, the driver will shut the card down.
.It "le%d: lance: warning: excessive collisions: TDR%dns (%d-%dm)"
An overly high number of Ethernet collisions were detected. It may be the
case that the network is overly busy. Or this may suggest a problem with
the EtherWORKS card.

.El
.Pp
.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
.Bl -diag
.It "lnc%d: Framming error"
A framming error occured. This means a CRC error also occurred.
This caused the driver to drop the packet that contained the framming error.
.It "lnc%d: Receive CRC error
The received Ethernet frame failed the CRC checksum.
This caused the driver to drop the packet that failed the checksum.
.It "lnc%d: Packet dropped, no mbufs"
The driver ran out of mbuf's. This may suggest a resource problem.
.It "lnc%d: Couldn't allocate memory for NIC"
This is a fatal error. The driver will not attach to the card under this
circumstance.
.It "lnc%d: Memory allocated above 16Mb limit"
ISA and ESIA cards require bounce buffers for DMA transfers above 16mb.
The Am7990 and Am79C960 only have 24 address lines and so can only access
the lower 16Mb of physical memory. The
.Nm
driver assumes the memory it allocates is within the lower 16Mb range.
This is not a very valid assumption but there's nothing that can be done
about it yet. For shared memory NICs this isn't relevant.
.It "lnc%d: Device timeout -- Resetting"
The device has stopped responding to the network, or there is a problem with
the network connection (cable). Make sure the network connection in use
is the same one the card is configured for.
.It "lnc%d: Transmit late collision -- Net error?"
.It "lnc%d: Loss of carrier during transmit -- Net error?"
.It "lnc%d: Transmit of packet failed after 16 attempts -- TDR = %d"

.It "ze%d: shared memory corrupt - invalid packet length %d"
This error is sometimes seen on early revisions of the Ethernet driver chip
under high load -- the byte order of the length gets switched.

.Sh CAVEATS
This driver is only known to work with IBM Credit Card Adapter for Ethernet,
but could probably work with other PCMCIA cards also, if it were modified
to get the locations of the PCMCIA configuration option register (COR)
by parsing the configuration tuples, rather than by hard-coding in
the value expected by IBM's card.

.Sh BUGS
Currently the driver does not support multicast.
