# SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0-only # # 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. 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 the file <file:drivers/net/ethernet/realtek/atp.c> 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" depends on PCI select CRC32 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 here. 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 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 here. 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 8169/8168/8101/8125 ethernet support" depends on PCI select FW_LOADER select CRC32 select PHYLIB select REALTEK_PHY help Say Y here if you have a Realtek Ethernet adapter belonging to the following families: RTL8169 Gigabit Ethernet RTL8168 Gigabit Ethernet RTL8101 Fast Ethernet RTL8125 2.5GBit Ethernet To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called r8169.
