一、配置菜單

Device Drivers

[*] Network device support ?--->

網絡設備驅動、網卡驅動

< > ? ? Bonding driver support ?

功能：多網卡綁定

具體操作為：將多個以太網通道綁定為一個,也就是兩塊網卡具有相同的IP地址并且聚合成一個邏輯鏈路工作,可以用來實現負載均衡或硬件冗余

< > ? ? Dummy net driver support

功能：啞接口網絡

使用環境：使用SLIP或PPP傳輸協議(如ADSL用戶)的需要它

具體操作：設置一個虛擬網絡。虛擬網絡(dummy network)就像網絡中的/dev/null。任何發送給虛擬網絡的數據都會永久消失，因為它會發往/dev/null。IP地址沒有設置。用戶可以定義他們的網絡相當于/dev/null）

< > ? ? EQL (serial line load balancing) support

功能：串行線路的負載均衡

具體操作：如果有兩個MODEM和兩條電話線而且用SLIP或PPP協議,該選項可以讓您同時使用這兩個MODEM以達到雙倍速度(在網絡的另一端也要有同樣的設備)

< > ? ? Generic Media Independent Interface device support?

功能：通用媒體獨立接口設備支持

背景介紹：MII是一種用于最高速度為100Mbit/s以太網的接口。以太網線纜用于連接到PHY ceiver，是一種以太網收發器

< > ? ? Ethernet team driver support (EXPERIMENTAL) ?--->

功能：team網卡組支持

背景介紹：通過虛擬接口組織許多以太網設備

< > ? ? MAC-VLAN support (EXPERIMENTAL)?

功能：允許用戶在特定的MAC地址和某個接口上映射數據包

具體操作：基于MAC地址的VLAN，一種根據報文的源MAC地址來確定untagged報文所屬VLAN的劃分方法

< > ? ? Network console logging support

網絡遠程命令支持，遠程登錄用

注意：內核發送給網絡的消息可任意通過這個特性記錄下來。除非記錄網絡信息對你很重要時才啟用它。禁用這個特性會增強性能。

< > ? ? Universal TUN/TAP device driver support

TUN/TAP可以為用戶空間提供包的接收和發送服務,比如可以用來虛擬一張網卡或點對點通道

使用環境：如果用戶空間程序希望使用TAP設備

< > ? ? Virtual ethernet pair device

本地以太網隧道

5端口10/100M以太網交換機芯片KS8995MA

< > ? PPP (point-to-point protocol) support

點對點協議,PPP已經基本取代SLIP了,ADSL撥號上網方式

< > ? SLIP (serial line) support

一個在串行線上(例如電話線)傳輸IP數據報的TCP/IP協議.

驅動支持SLIP和CSLIP。SLIP(Serial Line Internet Protocol)是一種用于調制解調器和串口的因特網驅動。PPP現在用來代替SLIP。CSLIP是壓縮的SLIP。

source "drivers/net/ethernet/Kconfig"

driver/net/ethernet/Kconfig

menuconfig ETHERNET
bool "Ethernet driver support"
depends on NET
default y
---help---
This section contains all the Ethernet device drivers.

if ETHERNET

source "drivers/net/ethernet/hieth-gmac/Kconfig"

endif?

drivers/net/ethernet/hieth-gmac/Kconfig

menuconfig HIETH_GMAC
tristate "hieth gmac family network device support"
depends on ARCH_HI3516A
default y
help
This selects the hieth gmac family network device. The gigabit
switch fabric (GSF) receives and transmits data over two Ethernet
ports at 10/100/1000 Mbit/s in full-duplex or half-duplex mode.
The Ethernet port exchanges data with the CPU port, and supports
the energy efficient Ethernet (EEE) and wake on LAN (WoL) functions.
