The CS8900-based ISA Ethernet Adapters from Cirrus Logic follow

IEEE 802.3 standards and support half or full-duplex operation in ISA bus

computers on 10 Mbps Ethernet networks. The adapters are designed for operation

in 16-bit ISA or EISA bus expansion slots and are available in
|

10BaseT-only or 3-media configurations (10BaseT, 10Base2, and AUI for 10Base-5
|
||||
or fiber networks).
|
||||
|
||||
CS8920-based adapters are similar to the CS8900-based adapter with additional
|
||||
features for Plug and Play (PnP) support and Wakeup Frame recognition. As
|

such, the configuration procedures differ somewhat between the two types of

adapters. Refer to the "Adapter Configuration" section for details on

|

3. Loading the Driver as a Module
|
||||
=================================
|
||||
|
||||
If the driver is compiled as a loadable module, you can load the driver module
|
||||
with the 'modprobe' command. Many of the adapter's configuration parameters can
|
||||
be specified as command-line arguments to the load command. This facility
|
||||
provides a means to override the EEPROM's settings or for interface
|
||||
with the 'modprobe' command. Many of the adapter's configuration parameters can
|

be specified as command-line arguments to the load command. This facility
|
||||

|
||||

Example:

||||
Example::
|
||||
|
||||
insmod cs89x0.o io=0x200 irq=0xA media=aui
|
||||
|
||||
This example loads the module and configures the adapter to use an IO port base
|
||||
address of 200h, interrupt 10, and use the AUI media connection. The following
|

configuration options are available on the command line:

**Notes:**

b) The "io" parameter must be specified on the command-line.

|

c) The driver's hardware probe routine is designed to avoid
|
||||
writing to I/O space until it knows that there is a cs89x0
|
||||
card at the written addresses. This could cause problems
|
||||
with device probing. To avoid this behaviour, add one
|
||||
to the `io=' module parameter. This doesn't actually change
|
||||
to the ``io=`` module parameter. This doesn't actually change
|
||||
the I/O address, but it is a flag to tell the driver
|
||||
to partially initialise the hardware before trying to
|
||||
identify the card. This could be dangerous if you are
|
||||
not sure that there is a cs89x0 card at the provided address.

||||

||||
For example, to scan for an adapter located at IO base 0x300,

specify an IO address of 0x301.

|
||||
The cs89x0 driver can be compiled directly into the kernel or compiled into
|
||||
a loadable device driver module.
|
||||
|
||||
Just use the standard way to configure the driver and compile the Kernel.
|
||||
|
||||
4.1 COMPILING THE DRIVER AS A LOADABLE MODULE
|
||||
|
||||
To compile the driver into a loadable module, use the following command
|
||||
(single command line, without quotes):
|
||||
|
||||
"gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux/include -I/usr/src/linux/net/inet -Wall
|
||||
-Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -DMODULE -DCONFIG_MODVERSIONS
|
||||
-c cs89x0.c"
|
||||
|
||||
4.2 COMPILING THE DRIVER TO SUPPORT MEMORY MODE
|
||||
|
||||
Support for memory mode was not carried over into the 2.3 series kernels.
|
||||
|
||||
4.3 COMPILING THE DRIVER TO SUPPORT Rx DMA
|
||||
4.1. Compiling the Driver to Support Rx DMA
|
||||
-------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
The compile-time optionality for DMA was removed in the 2.3 kernel
|
||||
series. DMA support is now unconditionally part of the driver. It is
|
||||
enabled by the 'use_dma=1' module option.

test the functionality of the adapter with the hardware configuration you have
|

5.2.2 DIAGNOSTIC NETWORK TEST
|
||||
5.2.2. Diagnostic Network Test
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
The Diagnostic Network Test verifies a working network connection by
|
||||
transferring data between two CS8900/20 adapters installed in different PCs
|
||||
on the same network. (Note: the diagnostic network test should not be run
|
||||
between two nodes across a router.)
|

The Diagnostic Network Test verifies a working network connection by

||||
transferring data between two CS8900/20 adapters installed in different PCs
|
||||
on the same network. (Note: the diagnostic network test should not be run
|
||||
between two nodes across a router.)
|
||||
|
||||
This test requires that each of the two PCs have a CS8900/20-based adapter
|
||||
installed and have the CS8900/20 Setup Utility running. The first PC is
|
||||
configured as a Responder and the other PC is configured as an Initiator.
|
||||
Once the Initiator is started, it sends data frames to the Responder which
|
||||
installed and have the CS8900/20 Setup Utility running. The first PC is
|
||||
configured as a Responder and the other PC is configured as an Initiator.
|
||||
Once the Initiator is started, it sends data frames to the Responder which
|
||||
returns the frames to the Initiator.
|
||||
|
||||
The total number of frames received and transmitted are displayed on the
|
||||
Initiator's display, along with a count of the number of frames received and
|
||||
transmitted OK or in error. The test can be terminated anytime by the user at

|
||||
either PC.
|
||||
|
||||
To setup the Diagnostic Network Test:
|
||||
|
||||
1.) Select a PC with a CS8900/20-based adapter and a known working network
|
||||
connection to act as the Responder. Run the CS8900/20 Setup Utility
|
||||
and select 'Diagnostics -> Network Test -> Responder' from the main
|
||||
menu. Hit ENTER to start the Responder.
|
||||
1. Select a PC with a CS8900/20-based adapter and a known working network
|
||||
connection to act as the Responder. Run the CS8900/20 Setup Utility
|
||||
and select 'Diagnostics -> Network Test -> Responder' from the main
|
||||
menu. Hit ENTER to start the Responder.
|
||||
|
||||
2.) Return to the PC with the CS8900/20-based adapter you want to test and
|
||||
start the CS8900/20 Setup Utility.

Hit ENTER to start the test.
|
||||
|
||||
3.) From the main menu, Select 'Diagnostic -> Network Test -> Initiator'.
|

Hit ENTER to start the test.
|
||||
|

You may stop the test on the Initiator at any time while allowing the Responder
|
||||
to continue running. In this manner, you can move to additional PCs and test
|
||||
them by starting the Initiator on another PC without having to stop/start the
|
||||
to continue running. In this manner, you can move to additional PCs and test

5.4 RESOLVING I/O CONFLICTS
|

5.4. Resolving I/O Conflicts
|

An IO conflict occurs when two or more adapter use the same ISA resource (IO
|
||||
address, memory address or IRQ). You can usually detect an IO conflict in one
|
||||
An IO conflict occurs when two or more adapter use the same ISA resource (IO
|
||||
address, memory address or IRQ). You can usually detect an IO conflict in one
|
||||
of four ways after installing and or configuring the CS8900/20-based adapter:
|
||||
|
||||
1.) The system does not boot properly (or at all).
|
||||
1. The system does not boot properly (or at all).

2.) The driver cannot communicate with the adapter, reporting an "Adapter

not found" error message.
|
||||
2. The driver cannot communicate with the adapter, reporting an "Adapter

|

3.) You cannot connect to the network or the driver will not load.
|
||||
3. You cannot connect to the network or the driver will not load.
|
||||
|
||||
4.) If you have configured the adapter to run in memory mode but the driver
|
||||
reports it is using IO mode when loading, this is an indication of a
|
||||
memory address conflict.
|
||||
4. If you have configured the adapter to run in memory mode but the driver
|
||||
reports it is using IO mode when loading, this is an indication of a
|
||||
memory address conflict.
|
||||
|
||||
If an IO conflict occurs, run the CS8900/20 Setup Utility and perform a
|
||||
diagnostic self-test. Normally, the ISA resource in conflict will fail the
|
||||
self-test. If so, reconfigure the adapter selecting another choice for the
|
||||
resource in conflict. Run the diagnostics again to check for further IO

|

|

In some cases, such as when the PC will not boot, it may be necessary to remove
|

the adapter and reconfigure it by installing it in another PC to run the

CS8900/20 Setup Utility. Once reinstalled in the target system, run the
