31.Sh NAME
32.Nm iee
33.Nd
34.Tn Intel
35.Tn i82596
3610MBit/s
37.Tn Ethernet
38interface
39.Sh SYNOPSIS
40.Ss ews4800mips
41.Cd iee* at sbdio?
42.Ss hp700
43.Cd iee* at gsc?
44.Sh DESCRIPTION
45The
46.Nm
47device provides access to the
48.Tn Intel
49.Tn i82596
5010MBit/s
51.Tn Ethernet
52interface.
53.Nm
54supports IEEE 802.1Q Virtual LANs.
55.Nm
56operates the
57.Tn i82596
58in 32-Bit Linear Mode, opposed to
59.Xr ie 4
60that drives the
61.Tn i82596
62only in
63.Tn i82586
64compatibility mode.
65.Sh HARDWARE
66.Ss ews4800mips
67The
68.Nm
69interface supports
70.Tn Intel
71.Tn i82596CA
72based on-board Ethernet on EWS4800/350.
73.Ss hp700
74The
75.Nm
76interface supports
77.Tn Intel
78.Tn i82596DX
79on ASP/ASP2 based machines and the
80.Tn i82596CA
81macrocell in LASI based machines.
82GSC expansion cards may work, but are not tested.
83Media selection on hp700 is done either manually via hardware
84jumper or automatically depending on machine model.
85.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
86.Bl -diag
87.It "iee%d: iee_intr: receive error %d, rfd_status=0x%.4x, rfd_count=0x%.4x."
88An error during frame reception occurred.
89The frame was dropped.
90.It "iee%d: iee_intr: can't allocate mbuf."
91.It "iee%d: iee_intr: can't alloc mbuf cluster."
92A frame was received, but dropped due to lack of memory.
93.It "iee%d: iee_intr: receive ring buffer overrun"
94Many frames where received under high load and the receive ring buffer
95was to small to store them all.
96Frame reception was restarted from scratch.
97Most likely there where frames lost.
98.It "iee%d: iee_intr: scb_status=0x%x scb_cmd=0x%x faild command %d: cb_status[%d]=0x%.4x cb_cmd[%d]=0x%.4x"
99A transmit or setup command was not executed successfully.
100.It "iee%d: iee_intr: crc_err=%d"
101Number of frames with a CRC error received.
102.It "iee%d: iee_intr: align_err=%d"
103Number of unaligned frames received.
104.It "iee%d: iee_intr: resource_err=%d"
105Number of good frames dropped because the receive ring buffer was full.
106.It "iee%d: iee_intr: overrun_err=%d"
107Number of frames lost because the system bus was not available for DMA.
108.It "iee%d: iee_intr: rcvcdt_err=%d"
109Number of collisions detected during frame reception.
110.It "iee%d: iee_intr: short_fr_err=%d"
111Number of frames received that where shorter then the minimum frame length.
112.It "iee%d: iee_start: failed to load DMA map"
113A
114.Xr mbuf 9
115chain with too many elements could not be setup for transmission.
116The
117.Xr mbuf 9
118chain will be merged into a single
119.Xr mbuf 9
120cluster and retransmitted.
121.It "iee%d: iee_start: can't allocate mbuf."
122.It "iee%d: iee_start: can't load TX DMA map."
123Said error occurred during merging the
124.Xr mbuf 9
125chain into a
126.Xr mbuf 9
127cluster.
128The frame was dropped.
129.It "iee%d: iee_init: can't create TX DMA map"
130.It "iee%d: iee_init: can't allocate mbuf"
131.It "iee%d: iee_init: can't allocate mbuf cluster"
132.It "iee%d: iee_init: can't create RX DMA map"
133.It "iee%d: iee_init: can't load RX DMA map"
134There was no memory free to allocate resources when the operator
135tried to bring the interface up.
136The interface will not come up.
137Try again later.
138.It "iee%d: iee_watchdog: transmit timeout %d"
139.It "iee%d: iee_watchdog: setup timeout %d"
140The hardware didn't respond to a transmit or setup command within five seconds.
141The interface will be reset and restarted.
142.It "iee%d: iee_gsc_cmd: timeout n=%d"
143Timeout at sending a channel attention command to the chip.
144.It "iee%d: iee_gsc_reset timeout bussy=0x%x"
145Timeout at resetting the chip.
146Possible errors during
147.Xr autoconf 4 .
148.It "iee%d: iee_gsc_attach: can't map I/O space"
149The driver failed to map the I/O ports of the chip.
150The device will not be attached.
151.It "iee%d: iee_gsc_attach: can't allocate %d bytes of DMA memory"
152.It "iee%d: iee_gsc_attach: can't map DMA memory"
153.It "iee%d: iee_gsc_attach: can't create DMA map"
154.It "iee%d: iee_gsc_attach: can't load DMA map"
155The driver failed to get the shared DMA memory for the chip.
156The device will not be attached.
