13 tristate "Dummy ATM driver"
15 Dummy ATM driver. Useful for proxy signalling, testing,
16 and development. If unsure, say N.
19 tristate "ATM over TCP"
22 ATM over TCP driver. Useful mainly for development and for
23 experiments. If unsure, say N.
26 tristate "Efficient Networks Speedstream 3010"
29 Supports ATM cards based on the Efficient Networks "Lanai"
30 chipset such as the Speedstream 3010 and the ENI-25p. The
31 Speedstream 3060 is currently not supported since we don't
32 have the code to drive the on-board Alcatel DSL chipset (yet).
35 tristate "Efficient Networks ENI155P"
38 Driver for the Efficient Networks ENI155p series and SMC ATM
39 Power155 155 Mbps ATM adapters. Both, the versions with 512KB and
40 2MB on-board RAM (Efficient calls them "C" and "S", respectively),
41 and the FPGA and the ASIC Tonga versions of the board are supported.
42 The driver works with MMF (-MF or ...F) and UTP-5 (-U5 or ...D)
45 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will
49 bool "Enable extended debugging"
52 Extended debugging records various events and displays that list
53 when an inconsistency is detected. This mechanism is faster than
54 generally using printks, but still has some impact on performance.
55 Note that extended debugging may create certain race conditions
56 itself. Enable this ONLY if you suspect problems with the driver.
58 config ATM_ENI_TUNE_BURST
59 bool "Fine-tune burst settings"
62 In order to obtain good throughput, the ENI NIC can transfer
63 multiple words of data per PCI bus access cycle. Such a multi-word
64 transfer is called a burst.
66 The default settings for the burst sizes are suitable for most PCI
67 chipsets. However, in some cases, large bursts may overrun buffers
68 in the PCI chipset and cause data corruption. In such cases, large
69 bursts must be disabled and only (slower) small bursts can be used.
70 The burst sizes can be set independently in the send (TX) and
71 receive (RX) direction.
73 Note that enabling many different burst sizes in the same direction
74 may increase the cost of setting up a transfer such that the
75 resulting throughput is lower than when using only the largest
78 Also, sometimes larger bursts lead to lower throughput, e.g. on an
79 Intel 440FX board, a drop from 135 Mbps to 103 Mbps was observed
80 when going from 8W to 16W bursts.
82 config ATM_ENI_BURST_TX_16W
83 bool "Enable 16W TX bursts (discouraged)"
84 depends on ATM_ENI_TUNE_BURST

90 bool "Enable 8W TX bursts (recommended)"
91 depends on ATM_ENI_TUNE_BURST
93 Burst eight words at once in the send direction. This is the default
96 config ATM_ENI_BURST_TX_4W
97 bool "Enable 4W TX bursts (optional)"
98 depends on ATM_ENI_TUNE_BURST
100 Burst four words at once in the send direction. You may want to try
101 this if you have disabled 8W bursts. Enabling 4W if 8W is also set
102 may or may not improve throughput.
104 config ATM_ENI_BURST_TX_2W
105 bool "Enable 2W TX bursts (optional)"
106 depends on ATM_ENI_TUNE_BURST
108 Burst two words at once in the send direction. You may want to try
109 this if you have disabled 4W and 8W bursts. Enabling 2W if 4W or 8W
110 are also set may or may not improve throughput.
112 config ATM_ENI_BURST_RX_16W
113 bool "Enable 16W RX bursts (discouraged)"
114 depends on ATM_ENI_TUNE_BURST

120 bool "Enable 8W RX bursts (discouraged)"
121 depends on ATM_ENI_TUNE_BURST
123 Burst eight words at once in the receive direction. This may work

128 bool "Enable 4W RX bursts (recommended)"
129 depends on ATM_ENI_TUNE_BURST
131 Burst four words at once in the receive direction. This is the

136 bool "Enable 2W RX bursts (optional)"
137 depends on ATM_ENI_TUNE_BURST
139 Burst two words at once in the receive direction. You may want to
140 try this if you have disabled 4W and 8W bursts. Enabling 2W if 4W or
141 8W are also set may or may not improve throughput.

145 depends on PCI && VIRT_TO_BUS
147 Driver for the Fujitsu FireStream 155 (MB86697) and
148 FireStream 50 (MB86695) ATM PCI chips.

163 config ATM_ZATM_DEBUG
164 bool "Enable extended debugging"
167 Extended debugging records various events and displays that list
168 when an inconsistency is detected. This mechanism is faster than
169 generally using printks, but still has some impact on performance.
170 Note that extended debugging may create certain race conditions
171 itself. Enable this ONLY if you suspect problems with the driver.
174 tristate "IDT 77201 (NICStAR) (ForeRunnerLE)"
175 depends on PCI && !64BIT && VIRT_TO_BUS
177 The NICStAR chipset family is used in a large number of ATM NICs for
178 25 and for 155 Mbps, including IDT cards and the Fore ForeRunnerLE
179 series. Say Y if you have one of those.

185 bool "Use suni PHY driver (155Mbps)"
186 depends on ATM_NICSTAR
188 Support for the S-UNI and compatible PHYsical layer chips. These are
189 found in most 155Mbps NICStAR based ATM cards, namely in the
190 ForeRunner LE155 cards. This driver provides detection of cable~
191 removal and reinsertion and provides some statistics. This driver
192 doesn't have removal capability when compiled as a module, so if you
193 need that capability don't include S-UNI support (it's not needed to

197 bool "Use IDT77015 PHY driver (25Mbps)"
198 depends on ATM_NICSTAR
200 Support for the PHYsical layer chip in ForeRunner LE25 cards. In
201 addition to cable removal/reinsertion detection, this driver allows
202 you to control the loopback mode of the chip via a dedicated IOCTL.
203 This driver is required for proper handling of temporary carrier
204 loss, so if you have a 25Mbps NICStAR based ATM card you must say Y.

215 config ATM_IDT77252_DEBUG
216 bool "Enable debugging messages"
217 depends on ATM_IDT77252
219 Somewhat useful debugging messages are available. The choice of
220 messages is controlled by a bitmap. This may be specified as a
221 module argument. See the file <file:drivers/atm/idt77252.h> for
222 the meanings of the bits in the mask.
224 When active, these messages can have a significant impact on the
225 speed of the driver, and the size of your syslog files! When
226 inactive, they will have only a modest impact on performance.
228 config ATM_IDT77252_RCV_ALL
229 bool "Receive ALL cells in raw queue"
230 depends on ATM_IDT77252
232 Enable receiving of all cells on the ATM link, that do not match
233 an open connection in the raw cell queue of the driver. Useful
234 for debugging or special applications only, so the safe answer is N.

251 bool "Enable debugging messages"
252 depends on ATM_AMBASSADOR
254 Somewhat useful debugging messages are available. The choice of
255 messages is controlled by a bitmap. This may be specified as a
256 module argument (kernel command line argument as well?), changed
257 dynamically using an ioctl (not yet) or changed by sending the
258 string "Dxxxx" to VCI 1023 (where x is a hex digit). See the file

324 tristate "FORE Systems 200E-series"
325 depends on PCI || SBUS
327 This is a driver for the FORE Systems 200E-series ATM adapter
328 cards. It simultaneously supports PCA-200E and SBA-200E models
329 on PCI and SBUS hosts. Say Y (or M to compile as a module
330 named fore_200e) here if you have one of these ATM adapters.
332 Note that the driver will actually be compiled only if you
333 additionally enable the support for PCA-200E and/or SBA-200E

346 bool "Use default PCA-200E firmware (normally enabled)"
347 depends on ATM_FORE200E_PCA
349 Use the default PCA-200E firmware data shipped with the driver.
351 Normal users do not have to deal with the firmware stuff, so
352 they should say Y here.

355 string "Pathname of user-supplied binary firmware"
356 depends on ATM_FORE200E_PCA && !ATM_FORE200E_PCA_DEFAULT_FW
359 This defines the pathname of an alternative PCA-200E binary
360 firmware image supplied by the user. This pathname may be
361 absolute or relative to the drivers/atm directory.
363 The driver comes with an adequate firmware image, so normal users do
364 not have to supply an alternative one. They just say Y to "Use
365 default PCA-200E firmware" instead.

368 bool "SBA-200E support"
369 depends on ATM_FORE200E_MAYBE && SBUS

375 depends on ATM_FORE200E_SBA
377 Use the default SBA-200E firmware data shipped with the driver.

383 string "Pathname of user-supplied binary firmware"
384 depends on ATM_FORE200E_SBA && !ATM_FORE200E_SBA_DEFAULT_FW
387 This defines the pathname of an alternative SBA-200E binary
388 firmware image supplied by the user. This pathname may be
389 absolute or relative to the drivers/atm directory.
391 The driver comes with an adequate firmware image, so normal users do
392 not have to supply an alternative one. They just say Y to "Use
393 default SBA-200E firmware", above.

396 bool "Defer interrupt work to a tasklet"
397 depends on (PCI || SBUS) && (ATM_FORE200E_PCA || ATM_FORE200E_SBA)
400 This defers work to be done by the interrupt handler to a
401 tasklet instead of handling everything at interrupt time. This
402 may improve the responsive of the host.
404 config ATM_FORE200E_TX_RETRY
405 int "Maximum number of tx retries"
406 depends on (PCI || SBUS) && (ATM_FORE200E_PCA || ATM_FORE200E_SBA)
409 Specifies the number of times the driver attempts to transmit
410 a message before giving up, if the transmit queue of the ATM card
411 is transiently saturated.
413 Saturation of the transmit queue may occur only under extreme
414 conditions, e.g. when a fast host continuously submits very small
415 frames (<64 bytes) or raw AAL0 cells (48 bytes) to the ATM adapter.
417 Note that under common conditions, it is unlikely that you encounter
418 a saturation of the transmit queue, so the retry mechanism never
