-Winbond W89C840F fast ethernet device driver
-.Sh SYNOPSIS
-.Cd "device wb0"
-.Sh DESCRIPTION
-The
-.Nm
-driver provides support for PCI ethernet adapters and embedded
-controllers based on the Winbond W89C840F fast ethernet controller
-chip. This includes the Trendware TE100-PCIE and various other cheap
-boards. The 840F should not be confused with the 940F, which is
-an NE2000 clone and only supports 10Mbps speeds.
-.Pp
-The Winbond controller uses bus master DMA and is designed to be
-a DEC 'tulip' workalike. It differs from the standard DEC design
-in several ways: the control and status registers are spaced 4
-bytes apart instead of 8, and the receive filter is programmed through
-registers rather than by downloading a special setup frame via
-the transmit DMA engine. Using an external PHY, the Winbond chip
-supports both 10 and 100Mbps speeds in either full or half duplex.
-.Pp
-The
-.Nm
-driver supports the following media types:
-.Pp
-.Bl -tag -width xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
-.It autoselect
-Enable autoselection of the media type and options. This is only
-supported if the PHY chip attached to the Winbond controller
-supports NWAY autonegotiation. The user can manually override
-the autoselected mode by adding media options to the
-.Pa /etc/rc.conf
-fine.
-.It 10baseT/UTP
-Set 10Mbps operation. The
-.Ar mediaopt
-option can also be used to select either
-.Ar full-duplex
-or
-.Ar half-duplex modes.
-.It 100baseTX
-Set 100Mbps (fast ethernet) operation. The
-.Ar mediaopt
-option can also be used to select either
-.Ar full-duplex
-or
-.Ar half-duplex
-modes.
-.El
-.Pp
-The
-.Nm
-driver supports the following media options:
-.Pp
-.Bl -tag -width xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
-.It full-duplex
-Force full duplex operation
-.It half-duplex
-Force half duplex operation.
-.El
-.Pp
-Note that the 100baseTX media type is only available if supported
-by the adapter.
-For more information on configuring this device, see
-.Xr ifconfig 8 .
-.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
-.Bl -diag
-.It "wb%d: couldn't map memory"
-A fatal initialization error has occurred.
-.It "wb%d: couldn't map interrupt"
-A fatal initialization error has occurred.
-.It "wb%d: watchdog timeout"
-The device has stopped responding to the network, or there is a problem with
-the network connection (cable).
-.It "wb%d: no memory for rx list"
-The driver failed to allocate an mbuf for the receiver ring.
-.It "wb%d: no memory for tx list"
-The driver failed to allocate an mbuf for the transmitter ring when
-allocating a pad buffer or collapsing an mbuf chain into a cluster.
-.It "wb%d: chip is in D3 power state -- setting to D0"
-This message applies only to adapters which support power
-management. Some operating systems place the controller in low power
-mode when shutting down, and some PCI BIOSes fail to bring the chip
-out of this state before configuring it. The controller loses all of
-its PCI configuration in the D3 state, so if the BIOS does not set
-it back to full power mode in time, it won't be able to configure it
-correctly. The driver tries to detect this condition and bring
-the adapter back to the D0 (full power) state, but this may not be
-enough to return the driver to a fully operational condition. If
-you see this message at boot time and the driver fails to attach
-the device as a network interface, you will have to perform second
-warm boot to have the device properly configured.
-.Pp
-Note that this condition only occurs when warm booting from another
-operating system. If you power down your system prior to booting
-.Fx ,
-the card should be configured correctly.

-.Sh HISTORY
-The
-.Nm
-device driver first appeared in
-.Fx 3.0 .
-.Sh AUTHOR
-The
-.Nm
-driver was written by
-.An Bill Paul Aq wpaul@ctr.columbia.edu .
-.Sh BUGS
-The Winbond chip seems to behave strangely in some cases when the
-link partner switches modes. If for example both sides are set to
-10Mbps half-duplex, and the other end is changed to 100Mbps
-full-duplex, the Winbond's receiver suddenly starts writing trash
-all over the RX descriptors. The
-.Nm
-driver handles this by forcing a reset of both the controller
-chip and attached PHY. This is drastic, but it appears to be the
-only way to recover properly from this condition.
