  18           This driver is developed for the SMC EtherPower series Ethernet
  19           cards and also works with cards based on the DECchip
  20           21040 (Tulip series) chips.  Some LinkSys PCI cards are
  21           of this type.  (If your card is NOT SMC EtherPower 10/100 PCI
  22           (smc9332dst), you can also try the driver for "Generic DECchip"
  23           cards, below.  However, most people with a network card of this type
  24           will say Y here.) Do read the Ethernet-HOWTO, available from

  53           This configures your Tulip card specifically for the card and
  54           system cache line size type you are using.
  55
  56           This is experimental code, not yet tested on many boards.

  64           Use PCI shared memory for the NIC registers, rather than going through
  65           the Tulip's PIO (programmed I/O ports).  Faster, but could produce
  66           obscure bugs if your mainboard has memory controller timing issues.
  67           If in doubt, say N.

  73           NAPI is a new driver API designed to reduce CPU and interrupt load
  74           when the driver is receiving lots of packets from the card. It is
  75           still somewhat experimental and thus not yet enabled by default.
  76
  77           If your estimated Rx load is 10kpps or more, or if the card will be
  78           deployed on potentially unfriendly networks (e.g. in a firewall),
  79           then say Y here.

  81           See <file:Documentation/networking/NAPI_HOWTO.txt> for more
  82           information.

  88         depends on TULIP_NAPI
  89         ---help---
  90           Use HW to reduce RX interrupts. Not strict necessary since NAPI reduces
  91           RX interrupts but itself. Although this reduces RX interrupts even at
  92           low levels traffic at the cost of a small latency.
  93
