DESCRIPTION
The atse device driver provides support for the Altera Triple-Speed
Ethernet MegaCore.
HARDWARE
The current version of the atse driver supports the Ethernet MegaCore as
described in version 11.1 of Altera's documentation when the device is
configured with internal FIFOs.
MAC SELECTION
The default MAC address for each atse interface is derived from a value
stored in cfi(4) flash. The value is managed by the atsectl(8) utility.
Only a single MAC address may be stored in flash. If the address begins
with the Altera prefix 00:07:ed and ends in 00 then up to 16 addresses
will be derived from it by adding the unit number of the interface to the
stored address. For other prefixes, the address will be assigned to
atse0 and random addresses will be used for other interfaces. If the
stored address is invalid, for example all zero's, multicast, or the
default address shipped on all DE4 boards (00:07:ed:ff:ed:15) then a
random address is generated when the device is attached.
