30.Sh NAME
31.Nm fxp
32.Nd Intel EtherExpress PRO/100 10/100 Ethernet device
33.Sh SYNOPSIS
34.Cd "fxp* at pci?"
35.Cd "fxp* at cardbus?"
36.Cd "icsphy* at mii?"
37.Cd "inphy* at mii?"
38.Cd "iophy* at mii?"
39.Cd "nsphy* at mii?"
40.Sh DESCRIPTION
41The
42.Nm
43device driver supports the Intel EtherExpress 100 family of Ethernet cards
44based on various revisions of the i82557, i82558, i82559, i82559S,
45i82550, i82551, and i82562 chipsets.
46These come in several different varieties, including dual-port cards, and
47as built-in Ethernet solutions on certain motherboards.
48This includes, among others, the following models:
49.Pp
50.Bl -item -offset indent -compact
51.It
52Intel EtherExpress PRO/100 PCI
53.It
54Intel EtherExpress PRO/100B PCI
55.It
56Intel EtherExpress PRO/100+ PCI
57.It
58Intel EtherExpress PRO/100 Dual-Port PCI
59.It
60Intel PRO/100 CardBus II PC Card
61.It
62Intel PRO/100 VE
63.It
64Intel PRO/100 VM
65.It
66Intel PRO/100 M
67.It
68Intel PRO/100 S
69.El
70.Pp
71This list is not exhaustive.
72In particular, the
73.Nm
74driver should support any card by any manufacturer which is based on one of the
75aforementioned chipsets.
76.Pp
77The following media types and options (as given to
78.Xr ifconfig 8 )
79are supported:
80.Bl -tag -width xxx -offset indent
81.It Cm media No autoselect
82Enable autoselection of the media type and options (default).
83.It Cm media No 100baseTX Cm mediaopt No full-duplex
84Set 100Mbps (Fast Ethernet) operation and force full-duplex mode.
85.It Cm media No 100baseTX Cm mediaopt No half-duplex
86Set 100Mbps (Fast Ethernet) operation and force half-duplex mode.
87.It Cm media No 10baseT Cm mediaopt No full-duplex
88Set 10Mbps operation and force full-duplex.
89.It Cm media No 10baseT Cm mediaopt No half-duplex
90Set 10Mbps operation and force half-duplex.
91.El
92.Pp
93If no media options are present, the
94.Nm
95driver places the card into autoselect mode.
96.Sh FILES
97Some devices are able to do interrupt coalescing but it requires firmware
98updating.
99The following firmware files are potentially loaded on demand when an
100interface is brought up:
101.Pp
102.Bl -tag -width Ds -offset indent -compact
103.It Pa /etc/firmware/fxp-d101a
104.It Pa /etc/firmware/fxp-d101b0
105.It Pa /etc/firmware/fxp-d101ma
106.It Pa /etc/firmware/fxp-d101s
107.It Pa /etc/firmware/fxp-d102
108.It Pa /etc/firmware/fxp-d102c
109.It Pa /etc/firmware/fxp-d102e
110.El
111.Pp
112If a file is missing, the driver attempts to operate anyway.
113.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
114.Bl -diag
115.It "fxp%d: couldn't map memory"
116A fatal initialization error has occurred.
117.It "fxp%d: couldn't map interrupt"
118A fatal initialization error has occurred.
119.It "fxp%d: Failed to malloc memory"
120There are not enough mbufs available for allocation.
121.It "fxp%d: device timeout"
122The device has stopped responding to the network, or there is a problem with
123the network connection (cable).
124.It "fxp%d: error %d, could not read firmware %s"
125The device is able to do interrupt coalescing but required firmware file
126is missing.
