NAME

     fpa, fea — device drivers for DEC FDDI controllers

SYNOPSIS

     device fpa
     device fea

     FreeBSD only:
     device fddi

DESCRIPTION

     The fpa and fea device drivers provide support for the DEC DEFPA PCI FDDI Controller and the DEC DEFEA EISA
     FDDI Controller, respectively.  All variants of either controller are supported including the DAS and SAS
     configurations.

DIAGNOSTICS

     fea%d: error: desired IRQ of %d does not match device's actual IRQ (%d)  The device probe detected that the
     DEFEA board is configured for a different interrupt than the one specified in the kernel configuration
     file.

     fea%d: error: memory not enabled! ECU reconfiguration required  The device probe found that no device
     memory had been configured on the DEFEA.  Although the DEFEA can be configured with no device memory, this
     driver requires a minimum of 1K device memory to be set up.  The ECU (EISA Configuration Utility) will need
     to be run to change the settings.

AUTHORS

     The fpa and fea device drivers and this manual page were written by Matt Thomas.

CAVEATS

     Normally, the device driver will not enable the reception of SMT frames.  However if the IFF_LINK1 flag is
     set, the device driver will enable the reception of SMT frames and pass them up to the Berkeley Packet
     Filter for processing.
