18 This driver is developed for the SMC EtherPower series Ethernet
19 cards and also works with cards based on the DECchip
20 21040 (Tulip series) chips. Some LinkSys PCI cards are
21 of this type. (If your card is NOT SMC EtherPower 10/100 PCI
22 (smc9332dst), you can also try the driver for "Generic DECchip"
23 cards, below. However, most people with a network card of this type
24 will say Y here.) Do read the Ethernet-HOWTO, available from

36 Setting this value allows to align ring buffer descriptors into their
37 own cache lines. Value of 4 corresponds to the typical 32 byte line
38 (the descriptor is 16 bytes). This is necessary on systems that lack
39 cache coherence, an example is PowerMac 5500. Otherwise 0 is safe.

74 Use PCI shared memory for the NIC registers, rather than going through
75 the Tulip's PIO (programmed I/O ports). Faster, but could produce
76 obscure bugs if your mainboard has memory controller timing issues.

82 help
83 NAPI is a new driver API designed to reduce CPU and interrupt load
84 when the driver is receiving lots of packets from the card. It is
85 still somewhat experimental and thus not yet enabled by default.
86
87 If your estimated Rx load is 10kpps or more, or if the card will be
88 deployed on potentially unfriendly networks (e.g. in a firewall),
89 then say Y here.

Randy Dunlapbf45abe2007-10-18 17:16:20 -070097 Use HW to reduce RX interrupts. Not strictly necessary since NAPI
98 reduces RX interrupts by itself. Interrupt mitigation reduces RX
99 interrupts even at low levels of traffic at the cost of a small
100 latency.
