# Realtek device configuration

config NET_VENDOR_REALTEK
bool "Realtek devices"
default y
depends on PCI || (PARPORT && X86)
---help---
If you have a network (Ethernet) card belonging to this class, say Y
and read the Ethernet-HOWTO, available from
<http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
Note that the answer to this question doesn't directly affect the
kernel: saying N will just cause the configurator to skip all
the questions about Realtek devices. If you say Y, you will be asked for
your specific card in the following questions.
if NET_VENDOR_REALTEK
config ATP
tristate "AT-LAN-TEC/RealTek pocket adapter support"
depends on PARPORT && X86
select CRC32
---help---
This is a network (Ethernet) device which attaches to your parallel
port. Read <file:drivers/net/atp.c> as well as the Ethernet-HOWTO,
available from <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, if you
want to use this. If you intend to use this driver, you should have
said N to the "Parallel printer support", because the two drivers
don't like each other.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
will be called atp.
config 8139CP
tristate "RealTek RTL-8139 C+ PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter support (EXPERIMENTAL)"
depends on PCI && EXPERIMENTAL
select CRC32
select NET_CORE
select MII
---help---
This is a driver for the Fast Ethernet PCI network cards based on
the RTL8139C+ chips. If you have one of those, say Y and read
the Ethernet-HOWTO, available from
<http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
will be called 8139cp. This is recommended.
config 8139TOO
tristate "RealTek RTL-8129/8130/8139 PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter support"
depends on PCI
select CRC32
select NET_CORE
select MII
---help---
This is a driver for the Fast Ethernet PCI network cards based on
the RTL 8129/8130/8139 chips. If you have one of those, say Y and
read the Ethernet-HOWTO <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
will be called 8139too. This is recommended.
config 8139TOO_PIO
bool "Use PIO instead of MMIO"
default y
depends on 8139TOO
---help---
This instructs the driver to use programmed I/O ports (PIO) instead
of PCI shared memory (MMIO). This can possibly solve some problems
in case your mainboard has memory consistency issues. If unsure,
say N.
config 8139TOO_TUNE_TWISTER
bool "Support for uncommon RTL-8139 rev. K (automatic channel equalization)"
depends on 8139TOO
---help---
This implements a function which might come in handy in case you
are using low quality on long cabling. It is required for RealTek
RTL-8139 revision K boards, and totally unused otherwise. It tries
to match the transceiver to the cable characteristics. This is
experimental since hardly documented by the manufacturer.
If unsure, say Y.
config 8139TOO_8129
bool "Support for older RTL-8129/8130 boards"
depends on 8139TOO
---help---
This enables support for the older and uncommon RTL-8129 and
RTL-8130 chips, which support MII via an external transceiver,
instead of an internal one. Disabling this option will save some
memory by making the code size smaller. If unsure, say Y.
config 8139_OLD_RX_RESET
bool "Use older RX-reset method"
depends on 8139TOO
---help---
The 8139too driver was recently updated to contain a more rapid
reset sequence, in the face of severe receive errors. This "new"
RX-reset method should be adequate for all boards. But if you
experience problems, you can enable this option to restore the
old RX-reset behavior. If unsure, say N.
config R8169
tristate "Realtek 8169 gigabit ethernet support"
depends on PCI
select FW_LOADER
select CRC32
select NET_CORE
select MII
---help---
Say Y here if you have a Realtek 8169 PCI Gigabit Ethernet adapter.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
will be called r8169. This is recommended.
