VGE(4) BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual VGE(4)
NAME
vge — VIA Networking Technologies Velocity Gigabit Ethernet adapter
driver
SYNOPSIS
To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your
kernel configuration file:
device miibus
device vge
Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the
following line in loader.conf(5):
if_vge_load="YES"
DESCRIPTION
The vge driver provides support for various NICs and embedded Ethernet
interfaces based on the VIA Technologies VT6120, VT6122, VT6130 and
VT6132 Velocity Family Gigabit Ethernet controller chips.
The VT6120/VT6122 is a 33/66MHz 64-bit PCI device which combines a tri-
speed MAC with an integrated 10/100/1000 copper PHY. (Some older cards
use an external PHY.) The VT6130/VT6132 is the PCI express version of
Velocity family. The MAC supports TCP/IP hardware checksums (IPv4 only),
TCP large send, VLAN tag insertion and stripping, as well as VLAN filter‐
ing, a 64-entry CAM filter and a 64-entry VLAN filter, 64-bit multicast
hash filter, 4 separate transmit DMA queues, flow control and jumbo
frames (not on VT6130/VT6132) up to 16K in size. The Velocity family
controllers have a 16K receive FIFO and 48K transmit FIFO.
The vge driver takes advantage of the controller's checksum offload and
VLAN tagging features, as well as the jumbo frame (except VT6130/VT6132)
and CAM filter support. The CAM filter is used for multicast address
filtering to provide 64 perfect multicast address filter support. If it
is necessary for the interface to join more than 64 multicast groups, the
driver will switch over to using the hash filter.
The jumbo frame support can be enabled by setting the interface MTU to
any value larger than the default of 1500 bytes, up to a maximum of 9000
bytes. Jumbo frames are disabled on the VT6130/VT6132 controllers
because the TX MAC will hang when trying to send a frame that is larger
than 4K. The receive and transmit checksum offload support can be tog‐
gled on and off using the ifconfig(8) utility.
The vge driver supports the following media types:
autoselect Enable autoselection of the media type and options. The
user can manually override the autoselected mode by adding
media options to rc.conf(5).
10baseT/UTP Set 10Mbps operation. The ifconfig(8) mediaopt option can
also be used to select either full-duplex or half-duplex
modes.
100baseTX Set 100Mbps (Fast Ethernet) operation. The ifconfig(8)
mediaopt option can also be used to select either
full-duplex or half-duplex modes.
1000baseTX Set 1000baseTX operation over twisted pair. The ifconfig(8)
mediaopt option can also be used to select either
full-duplex or half-duplex modes.
The vge driver supports the following media options:
full-duplex Force full duplex operation.
half-duplex Force half duplex operation.
For more information on configuring this device, see ifconfig(8).
HARDWARE
The vge driver supports VIA Networking VT6120, VT6122, VT6130 and VT6132
based Gigabit Ethernet adapters including:
· VIA Networking LAN-on-motherboard Gigabit Ethernet
· ZyXEL GN650-T 64-bit PCI Gigabit Ethernet NIC (ZX1701)
· ZyXEL GN670-T 32-bit PCI Gigabit Ethernet NIC (ZX1702)
LOADER TUNABLES
Tunables can be set at the loader(8) prompt before booting the kernel or
stored in loader.conf(5).
hw.vge.msi_disable
This tunable disables MSI support on the Ethernet hardware. The
default value is 0.
SYSCTL VARIABLES
The following variables are available as both sysctl(8) variables and
loader(8) tunables:
dev.vge.%d.int_holdoff
Maximum number of time to delay interrupts. The valid range is 0
to 5100 in units of 1us, the default is 150 (150us). The resolu‐
tion of timer is about 20us so finer tuning than 20us wouldn't be
available. The interface should be brought down and up again
before a change takes effect.
dev.vge.%d.rx_coal_pkt
Maximum number of packets to fire Rx completion interrupt. The
valid range is 1 to 255, the default is 64.
dev.vge.%d.tx_coal_pkt
Maximum number of packets to fire Tx completion interrupt. The
valid range is 1 to 255, the default is 128.
DIAGNOSTICS
vge%d: couldn't map memory A fatal initialization error has occurred.
vge%d: couldn't map ports A fatal initialization error has occurred.
vge%d: couldn't map interrupt A fatal initialization error has occurred.
vge%d: failed to enable memory mapping! The driver failed to initialize
PCI shared memory mapping. This might happen if the card is not in a
bus-master slot.
vge%d: watchdog timeout The device has stopped responding to the net‐
work, or there is a problem with the network connection (cable).
