tokenring: delete all remaining driver support
This represents the mass deletion of the of the tokenring support. It gets rid of: - the net/tr.c which the drivers depended on - the drivers/net component - the Kbuild infrastructure around it - any tokenring related CONFIG_ settings in any defconfigs - the tokenring headers in the include/linux dir - the firmware associated with the tokenring drivers. - any associated token ring documentation.

23COM PCI TOKEN LINK VELOCITY XL TOKEN RING CARDS README

4Release 0.9.0 - Release
5 Jul 17th 2000 Mike Phillips
6
7 1.2.0 - Final
8 Feb 17th 2002 Mike Phillips
9 Updated for submission to the 2.4.x kernel.
10
11Thanks:
12 Terry Murphy from 3Com for tech docs and support,
13 Adam D. Ligas for testing the driver.
14
15Note:
16 This driver will NOT work with the 3C339 Token Ring cards, you need
17to use the tms380 driver instead.
18
19Options:
20
21The driver accepts three options: ringspeed, pkt_buf_sz and message_level.
22
23These options can be specified differently for each card found.
24
25ringspeed: Has one of three settings 0 (default), 4 or 16. 0 will
26make the card autosense the ringspeed and join at the appropriate speed,
27this will be the default option for most people. 4 or 16 allow you to
28explicitly force the card to operate at a certain speed. The card will fail
29if you try to insert it at the wrong speed. (Although some hubs will allow
30this so be *very* careful). The main purpose for explicitly setting the ring
31speed is for when the card is first on the ring. In autosense mode, if the card
32cannot detect any active monitors on the ring it will open at the same speed as
33its last opening. This can be hazardous if this speed does not match the speed
34you want the ring to operate at.
35
36pkt_buf_sz: This is this initial receive buffer allocation size. This will
37default to 4096 if no value is entered. You may increase performance of the
38driver by setting this to a value larger than the network packet size, although
39the driver now re-sizes buffers based on MTU settings as well.
40
41message_level: Controls level of messages created by the driver. Defaults to 0:
42which only displays start-up and critical messages. Presently any non-zero
43value will display all soft messages as well. NB This does not turn
44debugging messages on, that must be done by modified the source code.
45
46Variable MTU size:
47
48The driver can handle a MTU size up to either 4500 or 18000 depending upon
49ring speed. The driver also changes the size of the receive buffers as part
50of the mtu re-sizing, so if you set mtu = 18000, you will need to be able
51to allocate 16 * (sk_buff with 18000 buffer size) call it 18500 bytes per ring
52position = 296,000 bytes of memory space, plus of course anything
53necessary for the tx sk_buff's. Remember this is per card, so if you are
54building routers, gateway's etc, you could start to use a lot of memory
55real fast.

9Thanks:
10Erik De Cock, Adrian Bridgett and Frank Fiene for their
11patience and testing.
12Donald Champion for the cardbus support
13Kyle Lucke for the dma api changes.
14Jonathon Bitner for hardware support.
15Everybody on linux-tr for their continued support.
16
17Options:
18
19The driver accepts four options: ringspeed, pkt_buf_sz,
20message_level and network_monitor.
21
22These options can be specified differently for each card found.
23
24ringspeed: Has one of three settings 0 (default), 4 or 16. 0 will
25make the card autosense the ringspeed and join at the appropriate speed,
26this will be the default option for most people. 4 or 16 allow you to
27explicitly force the card to operate at a certain speed. The card will fail
28if you try to insert it at the wrong speed. (Although some hubs will allow
29this so be *very* careful). The main purpose for explicitly setting the ring
30speed is for when the card is first on the ring. In autosense mode, if the card
31cannot detect any active monitors on the ring it will not open, so you must
32re-init the card at the appropriate speed. Unfortunately at present the only
33way of doing this is rmmod and insmod which is a bit tough if it is compiled
34in the kernel.
35
36pkt_buf_sz: This is this initial receive buffer allocation size. This will
37default to 4096 if no value is entered. You may increase performance of the
38driver by setting this to a value larger than the network packet size, although
39the driver now re-sizes buffers based on MTU settings as well.
40
41message_level: Controls level of messages created by the driver. Defaults to 0:
42which only displays start-up and critical messages. Presently any non-zero
43value will display all soft messages as well. NB This does not turn
44debugging messages on, that must be done by modified the source code.
45
46network_monitor: Any non-zero value will provide a quasi network monitoring
47mode. All unexpected MAC frames (beaconing etc.) will be received
48by the driver and the source and destination addresses printed.
49Also an entry will be added in /proc/net called olympic_tr%d, where tr%d
50is the registered device name, i.e tr0, tr1, etc. This displays low
51level information about the configuration of the ring and the adapter.
52This feature has been designed for network administrators to assist in
53the diagnosis of network / ring problems. (This used to OLYMPIC_NETWORK_MONITOR,
54but has now changed to allow each adapter to be configured differently and
55to alleviate the necessity to re-compile olympic to turn the option on).
56
57Multi-card:
58
59The driver will detect multiple cards and will work with shared interrupts,
60each card is assigned the next token ring device, i.e. tr0 , tr1, tr2. The
61driver should also happily reside in the system with other drivers. It has
62been tested with ibmtr.c running, and I personally have had one Olicom PCI
63card and two IBM olympic cards (all on the same interrupt), all running
64together.
65
66Variable MTU size:
67
68The driver can handle a MTU size up to either 4500 or 18000 depending upon
69ring speed. The driver also changes the size of the receive buffers as part
70of the mtu re-sizing, so if you set mtu = 18000, you will need to be able
71to allocate 16 * (sk_buff with 18000 buffer size) call it 18500 bytes per ring

1Text File for the SMC TokenCard TokenRing Linux driver (smctr.c).
2 By Jay Schulist <jschlst@samba.org>
3
4The Linux SMC Token Ring driver works with the SMC TokenCard Elite (8115T)
5ISA and SMC TokenCard Elite/A (8115T/A) MCA adapters.
6
7Latest information on this driver can be obtained on the Linux-SNA WWW site.
8Please point your browser to: http://www.linux-sna.org
9
10This driver is rather simple to use. Select Y to Token Ring adapter support
11in the kernel configuration. A choice for SMC Token Ring adapters will
12appear. This drives supports all SMC ISA/MCA adapters. Choose this
13option. I personally recommend compiling the driver as a module (M), but if you
14you would like to compile it statically answer Y instead.
15
16This driver supports multiple adapters without the need to load multiple copies
17of the driver. You should be able to load up to 7 adapters without any kernel
18modifications, if you are in need of more please contact the maintainer of this
19driver.
20
21Load the driver either by lilo/loadlin or as a module. When a module using the
22following command will suffice for most:
23
24# modprobe smctr
25smctr.c: v1.00 12/6/99 by jschlst@samba.org
26tr0: SMC TokenCard 8115T at Io 0x300, Irq 10, Rom 0xd8000, Ram 0xcc000.
27
28Now just setup the device via ifconfig and set and routes you may have. After
29this you are ready to start sending some tokens.
30
31Errata:
321). For anyone wondering where to pick up the SMC adapters please browse
33 to http://www.smc.com
34
352). If you are the first/only Token Ring Client on a Token Ring LAN, please
36 specify the ringspeed with the ringspeed=[4/16] module option. If no
37 ringspeed is specified the driver will attempt to autodetect the ring
38 speed and/or if the adapter is the first/only station on the ring take
39 the appropriate actions.
40
41 NOTE: Default ring speed is 16MB UTP.
42
433). PnP support for this adapter sucks. I recommend hard setting the
44 IO/MEM/IRQ by the jumpers on the adapter. If this is not possible
45 load the module with the following io=[ioaddr] mem=[mem_addr]
46 irq=[irq_num].
47
48 The following IRQ, IO, and MEM settings are supported.
49
50 IO ports:
51 0x200, 0x220, 0x240, 0x260, 0x280, 0x2A0, 0x2C0, 0x2E0, 0x300,
52 0x320, 0x340, 0x360, 0x380.
53
54 IRQs:
55 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15
56
57 Memory addresses:

1Text file for the Linux SysKonnect Token Ring ISA/PCI Adapter Driver.
2 Text file by: Jay Schulist <jschlst@samba.org>
3
4The Linux SysKonnect Token Ring driver works with the SysKonnect TR4/16(+) ISA,
5SysKonnect TR4/16(+) PCI, SysKonnect TR4/16 PCI, and older revisions of the
6SK NET TR4/16 ISA card.
7
8Latest information on this driver can be obtained on the Linux-SNA WWW site.
9Please point your browser to:
10http://www.linux-sna.org
11
12Many thanks to Christoph Goos for his excellent work on this driver and
13SysKonnect for donating the adapters to Linux-SNA for the testing and
14maintenance of this device driver.
15
16Important information to be noted:
171. Adapters can be slow to open (~20 secs) and close (~5 secs), please be
18 patient.
192. This driver works very well when autoprobing for adapters. Why even
20 think about those nasty io/int/dma settings of modprobe when the driver
21 will do it all for you!
22
23This driver is rather simple to use. Select Y to Token Ring adapter support
24in the kernel configuration. A choice for SysKonnect Token Ring adapters will
25appear. This drives supports all SysKonnect ISA and PCI adapters. Choose this
26option. I personally recommend compiling the driver as a module (M), but if you
27you would like to compile it statically answer Y instead.

30of the driver. You should be able to load up to 7 adapters without any kernel
31modifications, if you are in need of more please contact the maintainer of this
32driver.
33
34Load the driver either by lilo/loadlin or as a module. When a module using the
35following command will suffice for most:
36
37# modprobe sktr
38
39This will produce output similar to the following: (Output is user specific)
40
41sktr.c: v1.01 08/29/97 by Christoph Goos
42tr0: SK NET TR 4/16 PCI found at 0x6100, using IRQ 17.
43tr1: SK NET TR 4/16 PCI found at 0x6200, using IRQ 16.
44tr2: SK NET TR 4/16 ISA found at 0xa20, using IRQ 10 and DMA 5.
45
46Now just setup the device via ifconfig and set and routes you may have. After
47this you are ready to start sending some tokens.
