/* 3c501.c: A 3Com 3c501 ethernet driver for linux. */ /* Written 1992,1993,1994 Donald Becker Copyright 1993 United States Government as represented by the Director, National Security Agency. This software may be used and distributed according to the terms of the GNU Public License, incorporated herein by reference. This is a device driver for the 3Com Etherlink 3c501. Do not purchase this card, even as a joke. It's performance is horrible, and it breaks in many ways. The author may be reached as becker@CESDIS.gsfc.nasa.gov, or C/O Center of Excellence in Space Data and Information Sciences Code 930.5, Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt MD 20771 Fixed (again!) the missing interrupt locking on TX/RX shifting. Alan Cox Removed calls to init_etherdev since they are no longer needed, and cleaned up modularization just a bit. The driver still allows only the default address for cards when loaded as a module, but that's really less braindead than anyone using a 3c501 board. :) 19950208 (invid@msen.com) Added traps for interrupts hitting the window as we clear and TX load the board. Now getting 150K/second FTP with a 3c501 card. Still playing with a TX-TX optimisation to see if we can touch 180-200K/second as seems theoretically maximum. 19950402 Alan Cox Some notes on this thing if you have to hack it. [Alan] 1] Some documentation is available from 3Com. Due to the boards age standard responses when you ask for this will range from 'be serious' to 'give it to a museum'. The documentation is incomplete and mostly of historical interest anyway. 2] The basic system is a single buffer which can be used to receive or transmit a packet. A third command mode exists when you are setting things up. 3] If it's transmitting it's not receiving and vice versa. In fact the time to get the board back into useful state after an operation is quite large. 4] The driver works by keeping the board in receive mode waiting for a packet to arrive. When one arrives it is copied out of the buffer and delivered to the kernel. The card is reloaded and off we go. 5] When transmitting dev->tbusy is set and the card is reset (from receive mode) [possibly losing a packet just received] to command mode. A packet is loaded and transmit mode triggered. The interrupt handler runs different code for transmit interrupts and can handle returning to receive mode or retransmissions (yes you have to help out with those too). Problems: There are a wide variety of undocumented error returns from the card and you basically have to kick the board and pray if they turn up. Most only occur under extreme load or if you do something the board doesn't like (eg touching a register at the wrong time). The driver is less efficient than it could be. It switches through receive mode even if more transmits are queued. If this worries you buy a real ethernet card. The combination of slow receive restart and no real multicast filter makes the board unusable with a kernel compiled for IP multicasting in a real multicast environment. That's down to the board, but even with no multicast programs running a multicast IP kernel is in group 224.0.0.1 and you will therefore be listening to all multicasts. One nv conference running over that ethernet and you can give up. */ static const char *version = "3c501.c: 9/23/94 Donald Becker (becker@cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov).\n"; /* * Braindamage remaining: * The 3c501 board. */ #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include /* for CONFIG_IP_MULTICAST */ #include #include #include #include #include #include #define BLOCKOUT_2 /* A zero-terminated list of I/O addresses to be probed.
