NAME

     xge -- Neterion Xframe-I Ten Gigabit Ethernet driver

SYNOPSIS

     xge* at pci? dev ? function ?

DESCRIPTION

     The xge device driver supports the Neterion Xframe-I LR Ethernet adapter, which uses a single mode fiber (1310nm) interface.

     The Xframe supports IPv4/TCP/UDP checksumming in hardware, as well as TCP Segmentation Offloading (TSO) and hardware VLAN handling.  The
     driver currently does not support the hardware VLAN feature.  See ifconfig(8) for information on how to enable TSO and hardware checksum cal-
     culation.

DIAGNOSTICS

     xge%s: failed configuring endian, %llx != %llx!  The Xframe could not be turned into the correct endian operation.  This is most likely a
     hardware error.

     xge%d: failed allocating txmem.
     xge%d: failed allocating rxmem.  The computer has run out of kernel memory.

     xge%d: adapter not quiescent, aborting
     xge%d: ADAPTER_STATUS missing bits %s  The Xframe could not be turned into a usable state.  Most likely an Xframe hardware error.

     xge%d: cannot create TX DMA maps
     xge%d: cannot create RX DMA maps  This error is either a kernel error or that the kernel has run out of available memory.

     xge%d: bad compiler struct alignment, %d != %d  The compiler did not align the structure correctly.  This is a compiler problem.

HISTORY

     The xge driver first appeared in NetBSD 3.0.

AUTHORS

     The xge driver was written by Anders Magnusson <ragge@ludd.luth.se>.

BUGS

     There should be an XGMII framework for the driver to use.
