35.Cd "device cs" 36.Pp 37In 38.Pa /boot/device.hints : 39.Cd hint.cs.0.at="isa" 40.Cd hint.cs.0.port="0x300" 41.Cd hint.cs.0.irq="10" 42.Cd hint.cs.0.maddr="0xd000" |
43.Sh DESCRIPTION 44The 45.Nm 46driver provides support for ISA ethernet adapters based on the 47.Tn Crystal Semiconductor CS8900 48and 49.Tn CS8920 50NICs. These devices are used on the 51.Tn IBM EtherJet ISA 52adapters and in many embedded applications where the high integration, small 53size and low cost of the CS89x0 family compensate for their drawbacks. 54.Pp 55The 56.Nm |
57driver will obtain configuration parameters either from 58.Pa /boot/device.hints 59or from the card. 60At least the I/O port number must be specified. 61Other parameters specified in 62.Pa /boot/device.hints 63will be used if present; 64the card may be soft-configured so these may be any valid |
65value. Adapters based on the CS8920 normally offer PnP configuration and the driver 66will detect the 67.Tn IBM EtherJet 68and the 69.Tn CSC6040 70adapters automatically. 71.Pp 72Note that the CS8900 is limited to 4 IRQ values; these are normally implemented --- 51 unchanged lines hidden --- |
