copyrights to the inf parser files. Add a -n flag to ndiscvt to allow the user to override the default device name of NDIS devices. Instead of "ndis0, ndis1, etc..." you can have "foo0, foo1, etc..." This allows you to have more than one kind of NDIS device in the kernel at the same time. Convert from printf() to device_printf() in if_ndis.c, kern_ndis.c and subr_ndis.c. Create UMA zones for ndis_packet and ndis_buffer structs allocated on transmit. The zones are created and destroyed in the modevent handler in kern_ndis.c. printf() and UMA changes submitted by green@freebsd.org

.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm ndiscvt
|
|
.Nd Convert Windows(r) NDIS drivers for use with FreeBSD
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Nm
|
|
.Op Fl i Ar <inffile>
|
|
.Fl s Ar <sysfile>
|
|
.Op Fl n Ar devname
|
|
.Op Fl o Ar <outfile>
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility transforms a Windows(r) NDIS driver into a data file which
|
|
is used to build an
|
|
.Xr ndis 4
|
|
compatibility driver module. Windows(r) drivers consist of two main
|
|
parts: a .SYS file, which contains the actual driver executable code,
|
|
and a .INF file, which provides the Windows(r) installer with device
|
|
identifier information and a list of driver-specific registry keys.
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility can convert these files into a header file that is compiled
|
|
into
|
|
.Pa if_ndis.c
|
|
to create an object code module that can be linked into
|
|
the
|
|
.Fx
|
|
kernel.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The .INF file is typically required since only it contains device
|
|
identification data such as PCI vendor and device IDs or PCMCIA
|
|
indentifier strings. The .INF file may be optionally omitted however,
|
|
in which case the
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility will only perform the conversion of the .SYS file. This is
|
|
useful for debugging purposes only.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Sh OPTIONS
|
|
The options are as follows:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width indent
|
|
.It Op Fl i Ar <inffile>
|
|
Open and parse the specified .INF file when performing conversion.
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility will parse this file and emit a device identification
|
|
structure and registry key configuration structures which will be
|
|
used by the
|
|
.Xr ndis 4
|
|
driver and
|
|
.Xr ndisapi 9
|
|
kernel subsystem.
|
|
If this is omitted,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
will emit a dummy configuration structure only.
|
|
.It Fl s Ar <sysfile>
|
|
Open and parse the specified .SYS file. This file must contain
|
|
a Windows(r) driver image. The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility will perform some manipulation of the sections within the
|
|
executable file to make runtime linking within the kernel a little
|
|
easier and then convert the image into a data array.
|
|
.It Op Fl n Ar devname
|
|
Specify an alternate name for the network device/interface which will
|
|
be created when the driver is instantiated. If you need to load more
|
|
than one NDIS driver into your system (i.e. if you have two different
|
|
network cards in your system which require NDIS driver support), each
|
|
module you create must have a unique name. Device can not be larger
|
|
than IFNAMSIZ. If no name is specified, the driver will use the
|
|
default a default name (``ndis'').
|
|
.It Op Fl o Ar <outfile>
|
|
Specify the output file in which to place the resulting data. This
|
|
can be any file pathname. If
|
|
.Ar <outfile>
|
|
is a single dash, the data will be written to the standard output.
|
|
The
|
|
.Pa if_ndis.c
|
|
module expects to find the driver data in a file called
|
|
.Pa ndis_driver_data.h ,
|
|
so it is recommended that this name be used.
