I210 CS Driver Source Code for VxWorks

[Siddh4nt]

Hi,

I hope everyone is great!

I'd like to know about I210 CS Ethernet Adapter Compatibility with VxWorks.

Where can I obtain the source code of the driver and what necessary changes are required to implement (if any) in the driver in order to make it compatible with VxWorks OS.

If there are any other points which could be helpful, kindly share with me, it would be a great help.

Since it is for the first time I am going to use VxWork, I am trying to learn about its driver implementation process, so any kind of hint/suggestions would be highly appreciated.

Thanks & Regards

Hello Siddhant, Thank you for waiting on our update and we apologize for the delay. Please be informed that VxWorks is not included in the list of operating system for I210-CS, you can check this link for reference. https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/88741/intel-ethernet-controller-i210-cs.html If VxWorks is similar to Linux, you can look into the igb driver of I210 available in the sourceforge link below.

Hi Crisstellec,

Thanks for asking me.

We're still working on it. VxWorks Kernel I think is slightly different than Linux Kernel and its API and process for driver implementation is also different. This is my initial study, still am figuring out.

Could you tell me what degree of customization we can do with the drivers (If we want to remove the Linux OS system) for the I210 CS adapter.

Is there any No OS driver which I can integrate with any RTOS? I tried to search this but in the No OS driver section I found the driver which is implemented for Linux.

Please take a look on this, share some useful contents. It would be great help and support.

Thanking you.

Regards,

Siddhant.

Hi Crissellec,

Good Day!

I'd like to know is there any document describing the API/Routines of Driver provided by Intel, It would be useful to understand the driver and its function if possibly I get such documents.

Just let me know if such documents are available, and guide me how I can obtain the same.

Looking forward.

Warm Regards,

Hello Siddhant, Thank you for the patience. Please be informed that the NDA is applicable for the Windows driver source code and it might not be useful to you since your request is for Vxworks driver or no-OS driver which we don't have either of those. With this, we would suggest to contact VxWorks support for the required drivers. You might want to visit the link below as there was another customer that was able to modify the Vxworks driver to work with the I210 https://forums.intel.com/s/question/0D50P00004905xDSAQ/i210-driver-for-vxworks-551 Looking forward to your response.
