NAME
pci - introduction to machine-independent PCI bus support and drivers
SYNOPSIS
pci* at mainbus? bus ?
pci* at pchb? bus ?
pci* at ppb? bus ?
Other pci attachments are machine-dependent and depend on the bus topolo-
gy and PCI bus interface of your system. See intro(4) for your system
for details.
INTRODUCTION
NetBSD includes a machine-independent PCI bus subsystem and several ma-
chine-independent PCI device drivers.
Your system may support additional PCI devices. Drivers for PCI devices
not listed here are machine-dependent. Consult your system's intro(4)
for additional information.
SUPPORTED DEVICES
NetBSD includes machine-independent PCI drivers, sorted by device type
and driver name:
SCSI interfaces
ahc Adaptec 29xx, 39xx, and other AIC-7xxx-based SCSI inter-
faces.
bha Buslogic BT-9xx SCSI interfaces.
dpt DPT SmartCache/SmartRAID III and IV SCSI interfaces.
isp QLogic ISP-1020, ISP-1040, and ISP-2100 SCSI and
FibreChannel interfaces.
ncr Symbios Logic/NCR 53c8xx-family SCSI interfaces.
siop Symbios Logic/NCR 53c8xx-family SCSI interfaces.
Network interfaces
de DEC DC21x4x (Tulip) based Ethernet interfaces, including
the DE435, DE450, and DE500, and Znyx, SMC, Co-
gent/Adaptec, and Asante single- and multi-port Ethernet
interfaces. Multi-port interfaces are typically config-
ured as a PCI-PCI bridge with multiple de instances on the
PCI bus on the other side of the bridge.
en Midway-based Efficent Networks Inc. and Adaptec ATM inter-
faces.
ep 3Com 3c590, 3c595, 3c900, and 3c905 Ethernet interfaces.
ex 3Com 3c900, 3c905, and 3c980 Ethernet interfaces.
fpa DEC DEFPA FDDI interfaces.
fxp Intel EtherExpress PRO 10+/100B Ethernet interfaces.
le PCNet-PCI Ethernet interfaces.
ne NE2000-compatible Ethernet interfaces.
ntwoc SDL Communications N2pci and WAN/ic 400 synchronous serial
interfaces.
rtk RealTek 8129/8139 based Ethernet interfaces.
tl Texas Instruments ThunderLAN-based Ethernet interfaces.
Serial interfaces
cy Cyclades Cyclom-4Y, -8Y, and -16Y asynchronous serial com-
munications device interface.
Audio devices
auvia VIA VT82C686A integrated AC'97 sound device.
