    driver for Silan SC92031 netdev · bf345707
    Cesar Eduardo Barros authored
    This is a driver for the Silan SC92031/Rsltek 8139D NIC chip.
    
    This chip is found on at least one counterfeit Encore ENL832-TX-RENT NIC
    [1], which came with a mini-CD with the 2.4 driver.  A slightly older
    version of the driver was found at [2].  The main difference between them
    is that the newer one has a small bugfix in the RX path, a lot of
    gratuitous renaming of functions, all the printable strings changed to show
    as a "Rsltek 8139D" [sic], and a PCI ID of 8139 instead of 2031.  The
    driver on this patch is a rewrite of the vendor drivers (based mostly on
    the older one).
    
    Changes from the previous patch sent to netdev:
    - Use MMIO instead of PIO
    - Changed TX bounce buffers allocation
    - Use skb_copy_and_csum_dev
    - Several small bug fixes
    - Tested for more than just a few minutes each time

    [2] Look for SL_LINUX.ZIP (which is really a .tar.gz) at
        http://broadbandforum.in/dataone_Intex_LAN_cardlinux-t4207-s15.html
    [3] To compile on 2.6.17, simply add back the last argument to the
        interrupt handler in two places, and copy the boolean declarations
        from 2.6.19
