Subject: [9fans] fs kernel ether driver update
Date: Wed, 1 Mar 2006 00:25:31 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <f121a1be35a4266ec8b20b5892c8e2df@collyer.net> (raw)
I just put up a second file server for testing. This one has a
built-in SiS ethernet and I was able to exercise it; it seems to be
fine with the current driver. (I did have to change the boot programs
to recognise the SiS interface, and those changes have been submitted
as a patch, and still require one to specify ea= in plan9.ini for SiS
interfaces.)
I've also exercised an i82557 with a new driver. It seems to be fine,
so I've copied that driver to
/n/sources/plan9/sys/src/fs/pc/ether82557.c. Like ether83815.c,
ether8139.c, etherdp83820.c, and etherigbe.c, this new 82557 driver
will work unmodified in cpu kernels that have /sys/src/9/pc/compat.h.
There are more driver updates coming as I get the chance to verify
that the new drivers work correctly.
