eCos操作系统源码

# Target definition file fragment for ethernet devices.
#
# The target-side can instantiate up to four ethernet devices,
# eth0 to eth3. Each instance requires an entry in the
# target definition file specifying what underlying Linux
# kernel facility should be used to implement the I/O. This
# can take the following forms:
#
# 1) an existing ethernet device, e.g.
#        eth0 real eth1
#    thus mapping the eCos device eth0 on to the Linux device eth1.
#    The latter network interface must not currently be in use
#    by Linux. Traffic will flow to and from the real ethernet, and
#    communication is possible with any machine on the LAN.
#    
# 2) the Linux kernel's tap facility.
#        eth0 ethertap
#    This will result in a Linux ethernet interface such as
#    tap3 appearing. The interface can be configured like any
#    other network device, for example by using the ifconfig
#    command or by creating a configuration file
#    /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-tap3
#    The result is a virtual ethernet segment visible only
#    to the Linux host and eCos. Bridge software inside the
#    Linux host can be used to connect eCos to a larger network.
#
#    Optionally a specific tap device can be configured,
#        eth0 ethertap tap3
#    By default the code will pick up the next free tap device,
#    usually tap0. If the Linux interface should come up automatically
#    then this can be achieved with an ifcfg-tap?? configuration
#    file. Explicitly specifying the tap device can avoid some
#    confusion.
#
#    Both the eCos and the Linux network interface need a unique
#    MAC address. There is no real ethernet hardware involved to
#    supply these addresses, so they have to be invented. The
#    Linux kernel will automatically invent one for its interface.
#    By default a random MAC address will also be generated for
#    the eCos interface, but to make the system more deterministic
#    it is possible to specify the MAC address to be used. This
#    facility is only available in conjunction with an explicit
#    tap device, e.g.:
#        eth0 ethertap tap3 00:01:02:03:04:05
#    The MAC address should be in the usual format: six 2-digit
#    hexadecimal numbers separated by colons. It is the user's
#    responsibility to make sure that the address specified
#    does not match any other real or invented address visible
#    on the local network.
#
# It is possible that bursts of ethernet traffic occur, causing
# packets to arrive faster than they can be forwarded to and
# processed by eCos. It is desirable that some number of packets
# be buffered, matching the behaviour of many ethernet devices
# with built-in fifos. However the number of these packets should
# be restricted: if eCos stops accepting ethernet packets or
# cannot handle the data quickly enough, then it is possible that
# an unlimited number of packets could accumulate in the I/O
# auxiliary until all available memory and swap space is exhausted.
# By default up to 16 packets will be buffered per device, but
# this can be changes with the max_buffer option.
#
# The ethernet emulation code can perform logging and limited
# analysis of each ethernet packet. For example if a particular
# packet is an IPv4 ICMP request then details of the request
# will be logged to the main text window. The appearance of the
# various filters can be controlled here, using the usual
# options such as -foreground, -background, and -hide.
#
# This logging of each ethernet frame can be somewhat time-consuming
# and, for a long run, require a lot of memory. Logging can be
# disabled by default if desired, and a button on the toolbar allows
# this setting to be toggled.
#
# Ethernet packets can be up to 1514 bytes, so showing entire packets
# on a single line can mean very wide lines. In practice the interesting
# data is usually at the start, so the output can be truncated to a
# maximum number of bytes. The data is displayed in hex so each byte
# requires two columns, and some spacing will be added as well to
# improve legibility.
