.Dd June 30, 2006 .Dt KSE 4 .Os .Sh NAME .Nm kse .Nd Micrel 8842/8841 PCI Ethernet controller driver .Sh SYNOPSIS .Cd "kse* at pci? dev ? function ?" .Sh DESCRIPTION The .Nm driver supports Ethernet interfaces based on the Micrel 8842/8841 PCI Ethernet chips. .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr arp 4 , .Xr ifmedia 4 , .Xr netintro 4 , .Xr pci 4 , .Xr ifconfig 8 .Sh BUGS 8842 has 2 Ethernet ports which behave as a managed switch to bridge each other. 8842 works like T-shape connector of Ethernet data flow in which the Ethernet controller sits at the leg of T. Frames can flow between the two of ports while traffic destinated to 8842 reachs to the EMAC. The .Nm driver is not aware of the second port existence and treats 8842 as if it was a single port 8841. The second port PHY is always auto select. PDF document is unclear and inconsistent about Rx DMA alignment restriction is removed or not. __STRICT_ALIGNMENT case is not written. Advanced features like flow volume bound, VLAN tag insertion/removal, and detailed MIB counters are not implemented and remain uncontrollable by .Nm driver. .Sh AUTHORS The .Nm driver was written by .An Tohru Nishimura .
