31.Sh NAME
32.Nm vte
33.Nd Vortex86 RDC R6040 Fast Ethernet driver
34.Sh SYNOPSIS
35.Cd "vte* at pci? dev ? function ?"
36.Pp
37Configuration of PHYs is necessary.
38See
39.Xr rdcphy 4 .
40.Sh DESCRIPTION
41The
42.Nm
43device driver provides support for RDC R6040 Fast Ethernet controller
44which is commonly found on Vortex86 System On a Chip (SoC).
45.Pp
46The RDC R6040 has integrated 10/100 PHY for 10/100Mbps support in full
47or half-duplex.
48The controller supports interrupt moderation mechanism, a 64-bit multicast
49hash filter, VLAN over-size frame and four station addresses.
50The
51.Nm
52device driver uses three station addresses out of four as perfect
53multicast filter.
54.Sh SYSCTL VARIABLES
55The following variables are available
56.Bl -tag -width "xxxxxx"
57.It Va hw.vte.vte<x>.int_rxct
58Maximum number of packets to fire RX completion interrupt.
59The accepted range is 0 (disable interrupt moderation) to 15, the default is 0.
60.It Va hw.vte.vte<x>.int_txct
61Maximum number of packets to fire TX completion interrupt.
62The accepted range is 0 (disable interrupt moderation) to 15, the default is 0.
