NAME
en -- device driver for Midway-based ATM interfaces SYNOPSIS
To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your kernel configuration file: device en device atm device utopia Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in loader.conf(5): if_en_load="YES" DESCRIPTION
The en device driver supports Midway-based ATM interfaces including the Efficient Networks, Inc. ENI-155 and Adaptec ANA-59x0. Midway is an AAL5 SAR (Segmentation and Reassembly) chip. For configuring the card for IP see natmip(4). The following sysctls are recognized by the driver additionally to those handled by utopia(4): hw.atm.enX.istats Contains an array of uint32_t with internal driver statistics. hw.atm.enX.debug This is a bit map of debugging options. This variable is only available when the driver is compiled with debugging support. The driver supports the media options sdh, noscramb and unassigned (see utopia(4)). DIAGNOSTICS
en0 <Efficient Networks ENI-155p> rev 0 int a irq 5 on pci0:16 en0: ATM midway v0, board IDs 6.0, Utopia (pipelined), 512KB on-board RAM en0: maximum DMA burst length = 64 bytes en0: 7 32KB receive buffers, 8 32KB transmit buffers allocated CAVEATS
The driver extensively uses DMA on PCI. The first generation PCI chipsets do not work or exhibit poor performance. SEE ALSO

NAME
fatm -- device driver for Fore PCA200E ATM interfaces SYNOPSIS
device fatm device utopia device atm options NATM DESCRIPTION
The fatm device driver supports the FORE (now Marconi) PCA200E ATM interface cards. The driver interfaces with the natm(4) framework, netgraph(4) and HARP. It provides only PVC services. Signalling, ATMARP, ILMI and other higher layer protocols are implemented using netgraph(4) or HARP. For configuring the card for IP see natmip(4). The following sysctls are recognized by the driver additionally to those handled by utopia(4): hw.atm.fatmN.stats Returns a device specific statistic list of uint32_t statistic counters. hw.atm.fatmN.istats Returns a list of uint32_t with internal driver statistics. hw.atm.fatmN.retry_tx If this is set packets are stuffed back into the interface's send queue when the cards transmit queue is found to be full. They are transmitted later. If this is not set the packets are dropped. It may be useful to set this if only UBR traffic is sent. hw.atm.fatmN.debug (Only if debugging enabled.) These are debugging flags. See src/sys/dev/fatm/if_fatmvar.h for the possible flags. The driver supports the media options sdh, noscramb and unassigned (see utopia(4)). DIAGNOSTICS
fatm0: <FORE PCA200E> mem 0xd5800000-0xd59fffff irq 9 at device 9.0 on pci0 SEE ALSO

Harti Brandt <harti@FreeBSD.org> BUGS
These cards can CBR shape a single VCC only. It is currently possible to request more than one CBR connection. In this case all the timing will be wrong. See hatm(4) for a better card. BSD May 15, 2003 BSD
