29.Dt JME 4
30.Os
31.Sh NAME
32.Nm jme
33.Nd JMicron Gigabit/Fast Ethernet driver
34.Sh SYNOPSIS
35To compile this driver into the kernel,
36place the following lines in your
37kernel configuration file:
38.Bd -ragged -offset indent
39.Cd "device miibus"
40.Cd "device jme"
41.Ed
42.Pp
43Alternatively, to load the driver as a
44module at boot time, place the following line in
45.Xr loader.conf 5 :
46.Bd -literal -offset indent
47if_jme_load="YES"
48.Ed
49.Sh DESCRIPTION
50The
51.Nm
52device driver provides support for JMicron JMC250 PCI Express
53Gigabit Ethernet controllers and JMicron JMC260 PCI Express Fast
54Ethernet controllers.
55.Pp
56All LOMs supported by the
57.Nm
58driver have TCP/UDP/IP checksum offload for both transmit and receive,
59.\" TCP segmentation offload (TSO),
60hardware VLAN tag stripping/insertion features,
61.\" Wake On Lan (WOL)
62an interrupt coalescing/moderation mechanism as well as
63a 64-bit multicast hash filter.
64.Pp
65The JMC250 also supports Jumbo Frames (up to 9216 bytes), which can be
66configured via the interface MTU setting.
67Selecting an MTU larger than 1500 bytes with the
68.Xr ifconfig 8
69utility configures the adapter to receive and transmit Jumbo Frames.
70.Pp
71The
72.Nm
73driver supports the following media types:
74.Bl -tag -width ".Cm 10baseT/UTP"
75.It Cm autoselect
76Enable autoselection of the media type and options.
77The user can manually override
78the autoselected mode by adding media options to
79.Xr rc.conf 5 .
80.It Cm 10baseT/UTP
81Set 10Mbps operation.
82.It Cm 100baseTX
83Set 100Mbps (Fast Ethernet) operation.
84.It Cm 1000baseT
85Set 1000baseT operation over twisted pair.
86.El
87.Pp
88The
89.Nm
90driver supports the following media options:
91.Bl -tag -width ".Cm full-duplex"
92.It Cm full-duplex
93Force full duplex operation.
94.It Cm half-duplex
95Force half duplex operation.
96.El
97.Pp
98For more information on configuring this device, see
99.Xr ifconfig 8 .
100The
101.Nm
102driver supports
103.Xr polling 4 .
104.Ss MIB Variables
105A number of per-interface variables are implemented in the
106.Va hw.jme Ns Em X
107branch of the
108.Xr sysctl 3
109MIB.
110.Bl -tag -width "rx_ring_count"
111.It Va tx_coal_to
112Maximum amount of time to delay for TX completion interrupt in
113units of 1us.
114The accepted range is 1 to 65535, the default is 65535 (65535us).
115.It Va tx_coal_pkt
116Maximum number of packets to fire TX completion interrupt.
117The accepted range is 0 to 255, the default is 64.
118Packet count based TX interrupt coalescing could be disabled
119by setting this variable to 0.
120.It Va rx_coal_to
121Maximum amount of time to delay for RX completion interrupt in
122units of 1us.
123The accepted range is 1 to 65535, the default is 100 (100us).
124.It Va rx_coal_pkt
125Maximum number of packets to fire RX completion interrupt.
126The accepted range is 0 to 255, the default is 64.
127Packet count based RX interrupt coalescing could be disabled
128by setting this variable to 0.
129.It Va rx_desc_count
130Number of RX descriptors per-ring (read-only).
131Use tunable hw.jme.rx_desc_count to configure it.
132.It Va tx_desc_count
133Number of TX descriptors (read-only).
134Use tunable hw.jme.tx_desc_count to configure it.
135.It Va rx_ring_count
136Number of RX rings (read-only).
137Use tunable hw.jme.rx_ring_count to configure it.
138.It Va rx_ring_inuse
139Number of RX rings being used (read-only).
