Text File for the SMC TokenCard TokenRing Linux driver (smctr.c).
|
|
By Jay Schulist <jschlst@samba.org>
|
|
|
|
The Linux SMC Token Ring driver works with the SMC TokenCard Elite (8115T)
|
|
ISA and SMC TokenCard Elite/A (8115T/A) MCA adapters.
|
|
|
|
Latest information on this driver can be obtained on the Linux-SNA WWW site.
|
|
Please point your browser to: http://www.linux-sna.org
|
|
|
|
This driver is rather simple to use. Select Y to Token Ring adapter support
|
|
in the kernel configuration. A choice for SMC Token Ring adapters will
|
|
appear. This drives supports all SMC ISA/MCA adapters. Choose this
|
|
option. I personally recommend compiling the driver as a module (M), but if you
|
|
you would like to compile it statically answer Y instead.
|
|
|
|
This driver supports multiple adapters without the need to load multiple copies
|
|
of the driver. You should be able to load up to 7 adapters without any kernel
|
|
modifications, if you are in need of more please contact the maintainer of this
|
|
driver.
|
|
|
|
Load the driver either by lilo/loadlin or as a module. When a module using the
|
|
following command will suffice for most:
|
|
|
|
# modprobe smctr
|
|
smctr.c: v1.00 12/6/99 by jschlst@samba.org
|
|
tr0: SMC TokenCard 8115T at Io 0x300, Irq 10, Rom 0xd8000, Ram 0xcc000.
|
|
|
|
Now just setup the device via ifconfig and set and routes you may have. After
|
|
this you are ready to start sending some tokens.
|
|
|
|
Errata:
|
|
1). For anyone wondering where to pick up the SMC adapters please browse
|
|
to http://www.smc.com
|
|
|
|
2). If you are the first/only Token Ring Client on a Token Ring LAN, please
|
|
specify the ringspeed with the ringspeed=[4/16] module option. If no
|
|
ringspeed is specified the driver will attempt to autodetect the ring
|
|
speed and/or if the adapter is the first/only station on the ring take
|
|
the appropriate actions.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: Default ring speed is 16MB UTP.
|
|
|
|
3). PnP support for this adapter sucks. I recommend hard setting the
|
|
IO/MEM/IRQ by the jumpers on the adapter. If this is not possible
|
|
load the module with the following io=[ioaddr] mem=[mem_addr]
|
|
irq=[irq_num].
|
|
|
|
The following IRQ, IO, and MEM settings are supported.
|
|
|
|
IO ports:
|
|
0x200, 0x220, 0x240, 0x260, 0x280, 0x2A0, 0x2C0, 0x2E0, 0x300,
|
|
0x320, 0x340, 0x360, 0x380.
|
|
|
|
IRQs:
|
|
2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15
|
|
|
|
Memory addresses:
|
|
0xA0000, 0xA4000, 0xA8000, 0xAC000, 0xB0000, 0xB4000,
|
|
0xB8000, 0xBC000, 0xC0000, 0xC4000, 0xC8000, 0xCC000,
