NAME
hme —
Sun Microelectronics STP2002-STQ
Ethernet interfaces device driver
SYNOPSIS
hme* at pci? dev ? function ?
hme* at sbus? slot ? offset ?
DESCRIPTION
The
hme driver supports Sun Microelectronics STP2002-STQ Fast
Ethernet interfaces.
HARDWARE
The
hme driver supports the on-board Ethernet interfaces of
many Sun UltraSPARC workstation and server models.
Cards supported by the
hme driver include:
- Sun PCI SunSwift Adapter
(“SUNW,hme”)
- Sun SBus SunSwift Adapter
(“hme” and “SUNW,hme”)
- Sun PCI Sun100BaseT Adapter
2.0 (“SUNW,hme”)
- Sun SBus Sun100BaseT 2.0
(“SUNW,hme”)
- Sun PCI Quad FastEthernet
Controller (“SUNW,qfe”)
- Sun SBus Quad FastEthernet
Controller (“SUNW,qfe”)
The STP2002 family supports hardware checksumming to assist in computing IPv4
TCP/UDP checksums. The
hme driver supports this feature of
the chip. See
ifconfig(8) for
information on how to enable this feature.

HISTORY
The
hme driver first appeared in
NetBSD
1.5.
AUTHORS
The
hme driver was written by

Kranenburg ⟨pk@NetBSD.org⟩.
BUGS
Connecting a MII transceiver on those cards that support it will cause the RJ45
connector to be detected as PHY instance 1, instead of the default instance
0.
