* Microchip Technology, 24C01A/02A/04A Data Sheet
* available in PDF format from www.microchip.com
*
* Change History
*
* Tigran Aivazian <tigran@sco.com>: TLan_PciProbe() now uses
* new PCI BIOS interface.
* Alan Cox <alan@lxorguk.ukuu.org.uk>:
* Fixed the out of memory
* handling.
*
* Torben Mathiasen <torben.mathiasen@compaq.com> New Maintainer!
*
* v1.1 Dec 20, 1999 - Removed linux version checking
* Patch from Tigran Aivazian.
* - v1.1 includes Alan's SMP updates.
* - We still have problems on SMP though,
* but I'm looking into that.
*
* v1.2 Jan 02, 2000 - Hopefully fixed the SMP deadlock.
* - Removed dependency of HZ being 100.
* - We now allow higher priority timers to
* overwrite timers like TLAN_TIMER_ACTIVITY
* Patch from John Cagle <john.cagle@compaq.com>.
* - Fixed a few compiler warnings.
*
* v1.3 Feb 04, 2000 - Fixed the remaining HZ issues.
* - Removed call to pci_present().
* - Removed SA_INTERRUPT flag from irq handler.
* - Added __init and __initdata to reduce resisdent
* code size.
* - Driver now uses module_init/module_exit.
* - Rewrote init_module and tlan_probe to
* share a lot more code. We now use tlan_probe
* with builtin and module driver.
* - Driver ported to new net API.
* - tlan.txt has been reworked to reflect current
* driver (almost)
* - Other minor stuff
*
* v1.4 Feb 10, 2000 - Updated with more changes required after Dave's
* network cleanup in 2.3.43pre7 (Tigran & myself)
* - Minor stuff.
*
* v1.5 March 22, 2000 - Fixed another timer bug that would hang the
* driver if no cable/link were present.
* - Cosmetic changes.
* - TODO: Port completely to new PCI/DMA API
* Auto-Neg fallback.
*
* v1.6 April 04, 2000 - Fixed driver support for kernel-parameters.
* Haven't tested it though, as the kernel support
* is currently broken (2.3.99p4p3).
* - Updated tlan.txt accordingly.
* - Adjusted minimum/maximum frame length.
* - There is now a TLAN website up at
* http://hp.sourceforge.net/
*
* v1.7 April 07, 2000 - Started to implement custom ioctls. Driver now
* reports PHY information when used with Donald
* Beckers userspace MII diagnostics utility.
*
* v1.8 April 23, 2000 - Fixed support for forced speed/duplex settings.
* - Added link information to Auto-Neg and forced
* modes. When NIC operates with auto-neg the driver
* will report Link speed & duplex modes as well as
* link partner abilities. When forced link is used,
* the driver will report status of the established
* link.
* Please read tlan.txt for additional information.
* - Removed call to check_region(), and used
* return value of request_region() instead.
*
* v1.8a May 28, 2000 - Minor updates.
*
* v1.9 July 25, 2000 - Fixed a few remaining Full-Duplex issues.
* - Updated with timer fixes from Andrew Morton.
* - Fixed module race in TLan_Open.
* - Added routine to monitor PHY status.
* - Added activity led support for Proliant devices.
*
* v1.10 Aug 30, 2000 - Added support for EISA based tlan controllers
* like the Compaq NetFlex3/E.
* - Rewrote tlan_probe to better handle multiple
* bus probes. Probing and device setup is now
* done through TLan_Probe and TLan_init_one. Actual
* hardware probe is done with kernel API and
* TLan_EisaProbe.
* - Adjusted debug information for probing.
* - Fixed bug that would cause general debug
* information to be printed after driver removal.
* - Added transmit timeout handling.
* - Fixed OOM return values in tlan_probe.
* - Fixed possible mem leak in tlan_exit
* (now tlan_remove_one).
* - Fixed timer bug in TLan_phyMonitor.
* - This driver version is alpha quality, please
* send me any bug issues you may encounter.
*
* v1.11 Aug 31, 2000 - Do not try to register irq 0 if no irq line was
* set for EISA cards.
* - Added support for NetFlex3/E with nibble-rate
* 10Base-T PHY. This is untestet as I haven't got
* one of these cards.
* - Fixed timer being added twice.
* - Disabled PhyMonitoring by default as this is
* work in progress. Define MONITOR to enable it.
* - Now we don't display link info with PHYs that
* doesn't support it (level1).
* - Incresed tx_timeout beacuse of auto-neg.
* - Adjusted timers for forced speeds.
*
* v1.12 Oct 12, 2000 - Minor fixes (memleak, init, etc.)
*
* v1.13 Nov 28, 2000 - Stop flooding console with auto-neg issues
* when link can't be established.
* - Added the bbuf option as a kernel parameter.
* - Fixed ioaddr probe bug.
* - Fixed stupid deadlock with MII interrupts.
* - Added support for speed/duplex selection with
* multiple nics.
* - Added partly fix for TX Channel lockup with
* TLAN v1.0 silicon. This needs to be investigated
* further.
*
* v1.14 Dec 16, 2000 - Added support for servicing multiple frames per.
* interrupt. Thanks goes to
* Adam Keys <adam@ti.com>
* Denis Beaudoin <dbeaudoin@ti.com>
* for providing the patch.
* - Fixed auto-neg output when using multiple
* adapters.
* - Converted to use new taskq interface.
*
* v1.14a Jan 6, 2001 - Minor adjustments (spinlocks, etc.)
*
* Samuel Chessman <chessman@tux.org> New Maintainer!
*
* v1.15 Apr 4, 2002 - Correct operation when aui=1 to be
* 10T half duplex no loopback
* Thanks to Gunnar Eikman
*
* Sakari Ailus <sakari.ailus@iki.fi>:
*
* v1.15a Dec 15 2008 - Remove bbuf support, it doesn't work anyway.
* v1.16 Jan 6 2011 - Make checkpatch.pl happy.
