+config NET_TULIP
+ bool "\"Tulip\" family network device support"

+ This selects the "Tulip" family of EISA/PCI network cards.
+
+config DE2104X
+ tristate "Early DECchip Tulip (dc2104x) PCI support (EXPERIMENTAL)"
+ depends on NET_TULIP && PCI && EXPERIMENTAL
+ select CRC32
+ ---help---
+ This driver is developed for the SMC EtherPower series Ethernet
+ cards and also works with cards based on the DECchip
+ 21040 (Tulip series) chips. Some LinkSys PCI cards are
+ of this type. (If your card is NOT SMC EtherPower 10/100 PCI
+ (smc9332dst), you can also try the driver for "Generic DECchip"
+ cards, below. However, most people with a network card of this type
+ will say Y here.) Do read the Ethernet-HOWTO, available from
+ <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
+
+ To compile this driver as a module, choose M here and read
+ <file:Documentation/networking/net-modules.txt>. The module will

+ tristate "DECchip Tulip (dc2114x) PCI support"

+ select CRC32
+ ---help---
+ This driver is developed for the SMC EtherPower series Ethernet
+ cards and also works with cards based on the DECchip
+ 21140 (Tulip series) chips. Some LinkSys PCI cards are
+ of this type. (If your card is NOT SMC EtherPower 10/100 PCI

+
+config TULIP_MWI
+ bool "New bus configuration (EXPERIMENTAL)"
+ depends on TULIP && EXPERIMENTAL
+ help
+ This configures your Tulip card specifically for the card and
+ system cache line size type you are using.
+
+ This is experimental code, not yet tested on many boards.
+
+ If unsure, say N.
+
+config TULIP_MMIO
+ bool "Use PCI shared mem for NIC registers"
+ depends on TULIP
+ help
+ Use PCI shared memory for the NIC registers, rather than going through
+ the Tulip's PIO (programmed I/O ports). Faster, but could produce
+ obscure bugs if your mainboard has memory controller timing issues.
+ If in doubt, say N.
+
+config TULIP_NAPI
+ bool "Use NAPI RX polling "
+ depends on TULIP
+ help
+ NAPI is a new driver API designed to reduce CPU and interrupt load
+ when the driver is receiving lots of packets from the card. It is
+ still somewhat experimental and thus not yet enabled by default.
+
+ If your estimated Rx load is 10kpps or more, or if the card will be
+ deployed on potentially unfriendly networks (e.g. in a firewall),
+ then say Y here.
+
+ See <file:Documentation/networking/NAPI_HOWTO.txt> for more
+ information.
+
+ If in doubt, say N.
+
+config TULIP_NAPI_HW_MITIGATION
+ bool "Use Interrupt Mitigation "
+ depends on TULIP_NAPI
+ ---help---
+ Use HW to reduce RX interrupts. Not strict necessary since NAPI reduces
+ RX interrupts but itself. Although this reduces RX interrupts even at
+ low levels traffic at the cost of a small latency.
+
+ If in doubt, say Y.
+
+config DE4X5
+ tristate "Generic DECchip & DIGITAL EtherWORKS PCI/EISA"
+ depends on NET_TULIP && (PCI || EISA)
+ select CRC32
+ ---help---
+ This is support for the DIGITAL series of PCI/EISA Ethernet cards.
+ These include the DE425, DE434, DE435, DE450 and DE500 models. If
+ you have a network card of this type, say Y and read the
+ Ethernet-HOWTO, available from
+ <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. More specific
+ information is contained in
+ <file:Documentation/networking/de4x5.txt>.
+
+ To compile this driver as a module, choose M here and read
+ <file:Documentation/networking/net-modules.txt>. The module will
+ be called de4x5.
+
+config WINBOND_840
+ tristate "Winbond W89c840 Ethernet support"
+ depends on NET_TULIP && PCI
+ select CRC32
+ select MII
+ help
+ This driver is for the Winbond W89c840 chip. It also works with
+ the TX9882 chip on the Compex RL100-ATX board.
+ More specific information and updates are available from
+ <http://www.scyld.com/network/drivers.html>.
+
+config DM9102
+ tristate "Davicom DM910x/DM980x support"
+ depends on NET_TULIP && PCI
+ select CRC32
+ ---help---
+ This driver is for DM9102(A)/DM9132/DM9801 compatible PCI cards from
+ Davicom (<http://www.davicom.com.tw/>). If you have such a network
+ (Ethernet) card, say Y. Some information is contained in the file
+ <file:Documentation/networking/dmfe.txt>.
+
+ To compile this driver as a module, choose M here and read
+ <file:Documentation/networking/net-modules.txt>. The module will
+ be called dmfe.
+
+config PCMCIA_XIRCOM
+ tristate "Xircom CardBus support (new driver)"
+ depends on NET_TULIP && CARDBUS
+ ---help---
+ This driver is for the Digital "Tulip" Ethernet CardBus adapters.
+ It should work with most DEC 21*4*-based chips/ethercards, as well
+ as with work-alike chips from Lite-On (PNIC) and Macronix (MXIC) and
+ ASIX.
+
+ To compile this driver as a module, choose M here and read
+ <file:Documentation/networking/net-modules.txt>. The module will
