NAME
fpa, fea, fta - Device Drivers for DEC FDDI Controllers
SYNOPSIS
fpa0 at pci?
fea0 at eisa?
fta0 at tc?
DESCRIPTION
The fpa, fea and fta device driver provides support for the DEC DEFPA PCI
FDDI Controller, the DEC DEFEA EISA FDDI Controller, and the DEC DEFTA
TurboChannel FDDI Controller, respectively. All variants of either con-
troller are supported including the DAS and SAS configurations.
DIAGNOSTICS
fea%d: error: desired IRQ of %d does not match device's actual IRQ
(%d) The device probe detected that the DEFEA board is configured for a
different interrupt than the one specified in the kernel configuration
file.
fea%d: error: memory not enabled! ECU reconfiguration required The de-
vice probe found that no device memory had been configured on the DEFEA.
The DEFEA can be configured with no device memory, this driver requires a
mininum of 1K device memory be setup. The ECU (EISA Configuration Utili-
ty) will need to be run to change the settings.
CAVEATS
Normally, the device driver will not enable the reception of SMT frames.
However if the IFF_LINK1 flag is set, the device driver will enable the
reception of SMT frames and pass them up to the Berkeley Packet Filter
for processing.
