Raw Normal View History

You were knocked senseless by the Boomerang, spun around by the Cyclone, blown over by the Hurricane and had a house dropped on you by the Tornado. Now it's time to have your parade rained on by... the Typhoon! This commit adds driver support for 3Com 3cR990 10/100 ethernet adapters based on the Typhoon I and Typhoon II chipsets. This is actually a port of the OpenBSD driver with many hacks by me. No Virginia, there isn't any support for the hardware crypto yet. However there is support for TCP/IP checksum offload and VLANs. Special thanks go to Jason Wright, Aaron Campbell and Theo de Raadt for squeezing enough info out of 3Com to get this written, and for doing most of the hard work. Manual page is included. Compiled as a module and included in GENERIC.

.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Nm
interface provides access to the 10Mb/s and 100Mb/s Ethernet networks via the
.Tn 3Com
.Tn Typhoon/Sidewinder
chipset.
.Pp
Basic Ethernet functions are provided as well as support for
.Xr vlan 4
tag removal and insertion assistance, receive
.Xr ip 4 ,
.Xr tcp 4 ,
and
.Xr udp 4
checksum offloading,
and
transmit
.Xr ip 4
checksum offloading.
There is currently no support for
transmit
.Xr tcp 4
or
.Xr udp 4
checksum offloading,
.Xr tcp 4
segmentation, nor
.Xr ipsec 4
acceleration.
.Pp
Each of the host's network addresses
is specified at boot time with an
.Dv SIOCSIFADDR
.Xr ioctl 2 .
The
.Nm
interface employs the address resolution protocol described in
.Xr arp 4
to dynamically map between Internet and Ethernet addresses on the local
network.
.Pp
When a
.Nm
interface is brought up, by default, it will attempt to auto-negotiate the
mdoc(7) police: markup nits.
