Introduction
============
This file describes the Linux driver for the Broadcom BCM4400 series
10/100 Mbps Ethernet Network Controllers.
Limitations
===========
The current version of the driver has been tested on Red Hat 7.1, 7.2,
7.3, and 8.0 beta Linux distributions for i386 systems, and other similar
Linux distributions using 2.4.x kernels. The driver has been tested up to
kernel version 2.4.18.
Packaging
=========
The driver is released in two packaging formats: source RPM and compressed tar
formats. The file names for the two packages are bcm4400-<version>.src.rpm and
bcm4400-<version>.tar.gz respectively. Identical source files to build the
driver are included in both packages.
Installing Source RPM Package
=============================
1. Install the source RPM package:
rpm -ivh bcm4400-<version>.src.rpm
If installing the driver on SuSE Linux, refer to the Notes section below
before continuing.
2. CD to the RPM path and build the binary driver for your kernel:
cd /usr/src/{redhat,OpenLinux,turbo,packages,rpm ..}
rpm -bb SPECS/bcm4400.spec
or
rpmbuild -bb SPECS/bcm4400.spec (for RPM version 4.x.x)
Note that the RPM path is different for different Linux distributions.
3. Install the newly built package (driver and man page):
rpm -ivh RPMS/i386/bcm4400-<version>.i386.rpm
The driver will be installed in the following path:
2.2.x kernels:
/lib/modules/<kernel_version>/net/bcm4400.o
2.4.x kernels:
/lib/modules/<kernel_version>/kernel/drivers/net/bcm4400.o
4. Load the driver:
insmod bcm4400
5. To configure network protocol and address, refer to various Linux
documentations.
Building Driver From TAR File
=============================
1. Create a directory and extract the files:
tar xvzf bcm4400-<version>.tar.gz
If installing the driver on SuSE Linux, refer to the Notes section below
before continuing.
2. Build the driver bcm4400.o as a loadable module for the running kernel:
cd src
make
3. Test the driver by loading it:
insmod bcm4400.o
4. Install the driver and man page:
make install
See RPM instructions above for the location of the installed driver.
5. To configure network protocol and address, refer to various Linux
documentations.
Notes
=====
Note 1: If compiling the driver under SuSE Linux kernel and errors are
reported, follow the general guidelines below to rebuild the kernel
source tree:
cd /usr/src/linux-<kernel_version>.SuSE
cp /boot/vmlinuz.config .config
cp /boot/vmlinuz.version.h include/linux/version.h
cp /boot/vmlinuz.autoconf.h include/linux/autoconf.h
make oldconfig
make dep
where <kernel_version> is the actual kernel version used in the SuSE
distribution. Example: /usr/src/linux-2.4.4.SuSE
Unloading and Removing Driver
=============================
To unload the driver, use ifconfig to bring down all eth# interfaces opened
by the driver, then do the following:
rmmod bcm4400
If the driver was installed using rpm, do the following to remove it:
rpm -e bcm4400
If the driver was installed using make install from the tar file, the driver
bcm4400.o has to be manually deleted from the system. Refer to the section
"Building Driver From TAR File" for the location of the installed driver.
Module Parameters
=================
Optional parameters for the driver can be supplied as command line arguments
to the insmod command. Typically, these parameters are set in the file
/etc/modules.conf (see the man page for modules.conf). These parameters take
the form
<parameter>=value[,value,...]
where the multiple values for the same parameter are for multiple NICs
installed in the system.
Note that default or other meaningful values will be used when invalid values
are selected. Some combinations of parameter values may conflict and lead to
failures. The driver cannot detect all such conflicting combinations.
All the parameters are listed below.
line_speed
Selects the line speed of the link. This parameter is used together with
full_duplex and auto_speed to select the speed and duplexity of the link
and the setting of autonegotiation.
The valid values are:
0 Autonegotiate for highest speed supported by link partner (default)
10 10 Mbps
100 100 Mbps
If line_speed is set to 10, 100, or 1000, the NIC will autonegotiate for
the selected speed (and selected duplexity) if auto_speed is set to 1.
If auto_speed is set to 0, the selected speed and duplexity will be
set without autonegotiation. Note that 1000 Mbps must be negotiated for
copper twisted pair links.
auto_speed
Enables or disables autonegotiation. The valid values are:
0 Autonegotiation disabled
1 Autonegotiation enabled (default)
Note that this parameter is ignored and assumed 1 if line_speed is set
to 0.
full_duplex
Selects the duplexity of the link. This paramter is used together with
line_speed to select the speed and duplexity of the link. Note that this
parameter is ignored if line_speed is 0.
The valid values are:
0 half duplex
1 full duplex (default)
rx_flow_control
Enables or disables receiving flow control (pause) frames. This parameter
is used together with auto_flow_control. The valid values are:
0 pause receive disabled (default)
1 pause receive enabled if auto_flow_control is set to 0, or
pause receive advertised if auto_flow_control is set to 1
tx_flow_control
Enables or disables transmitting flow control (pause) frames. This parameter
is used together with auto_flow_control. The valid values are:
0 pause transmit disabled (default)
1 pause transmit enabled if auto_flow_control is set to 0, or
pause transmit advertised if auto_flow_control is set to 1
auto_flow_control
Enables or disables autonegotiation of flow control. This parameter is used
together with rx_flow_control and tx_flow_control to determine the
advertised flow control capability. The valid values are:
0 flow control autonegotiation disabled (default)
1 flow control autonegotiation enabled with capability specified in
rx_flow_control and tx_flow_control (only valid if line_speed is
set to 0 or auto_speed is set to 1)
tx_pkt_desc_cnt
Configures the number of transmit descriptors. Default is 64. The
valid range is from 1 to 511.
rx_pkt_desc_cnt
Configures the number of receive descriptors. Default is 64. The
valid range is from 1 to 511.
Driver Messages
===============
The following are the most common sample messages that may be logged in the file
/var/log/messages. Use dmesg -n <level> to control the level at which messages
will appear on the console. Most systems are set to level 6 by default.
