NAME
fpa,

DEC FDDI interface driver
SYNOPSIS
fpa* at pci? dev ? function ?
fea* at eisa? slot ?
alpha and pmax
fta* at tc? slot ? offset ?
DESCRIPTION
Cards supported by the
fpa,
fea and
fta device driver are:
-
-
- DEFPA
- DEC PCI FDDI Controller
-
-
- DEFEA
- DEC EISA FDDI Controller
-
-
- DEFTA
- DEC TURBOchannel FDDI Controller
respectively. All variants of either controller 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 device 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 minimum of 1K device memory be set up. The
ECU (EISA Configuration Utility) will need to be run to change the
settings.

BUGS
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.
