-This is the network interface controller portion of the libchip library.
-This directory contains the source code for reusable TCP/IP network driver
-support code. Each driver has its own configuration table and its
-chip specific attach routine must be called by a board specific
-attach routine. The board specific chip routine passes the chip
-configuration and network configuration to the resuable device driver.
-
-The reusable chip drivers do not directly access the controller.
-They access the registers on the controller via a set of
-functions which are provided by the BSP. These functions set and get
-general registers and data buffers.

-This SONIC driver does not make any attempt to support the SONIC chip
-in any of the following modes:
-
- + 16-bit
- + little endian
-
-It does not attempt to handle SONIC's older than Revision C. There is
-a bug in chips before that revision that must be handled in the driver.
-
-The configuration table should be discussed here but if you look in the
-include file for the sonic, it is reasonably obvious. :)
-
-The performance impact of transforming this driver into libchip format
-was minimal.
-
-The powerpc/dmv177 BSP uses this driver and can serve as an example
-configuration table.
