An early Christmas present: add driver support for a whole bunch of
PCI fast ethernet adapters, plus man pages. if_pn.c: Netgear FA310TX model D1, LinkSys LNE100TX, Matrox FastNIC 10/100, various other PNIC devices if_mx.c: NDC Communications SOHOware SFA100 (Macronix 98713A), various other boards based on the Macronix 98713, 98713A, 98715, 98715A and 98725 chips if_vr.c: D-Link DFE530-TX, other boards based on the VIA Rhine and Rhine II chips (note: the D-Link and certain other cards that actually use a Rhine II chip still return the PCI device ID of the Rhine I. I don't know why, and it doesn't really matter since the driver treats both chips the same anyway.) if_wb.c: Trendware TE100-PCIE and various other cards based on the Winbond W89C840F chip (the Trendware card is identical to the sample boards Winbond sent me, so who knows how many clones there are running around) All drivers include support for ifmedia, BPF and hardware multicast filtering. Also updated GENERIC, LINT, RELNOTES.TXT, userconfig and sysinstall device list. I also have a driver for the ASIX AX88140A in the works.
