menuconfig ETH_NATIVE_POSIX
bool "Native Posix Ethernet driver"
depends on ARCH_POSIX
help
Enable native posix ethernet driver. Note, this driver is run inside
a process in your host system.
if ETH_NATIVE_POSIX
config ETH_NATIVE_POSIX_INTERFACE_COUNT
int "Number of network interfaces created"
default NET_GPTP_NUM_PORTS if NET_GPTP
default PTP_NUM_PORTS if PTP
default 1
range 1 32
help
By default only one network interface is created. It is possible
to create multiple interfaces in certain use cases. For example if
multiple ports are defined in gPTP or PTP, then multiple network interfaces
must be created here.
config ETH_NATIVE_POSIX_DRV_NAME
string "Ethernet driver name"
default "zeth"
help
This option sets the driver name and name of the network interface
in your host system. If there are multiple network interfaces defined,
then this value is used as a prefix and the interface names will be
zeth0, zeth1, etc.
config ETH_NATIVE_POSIX_DEV_NAME
string "Host ethernet TUN/TAP device name"
default "/dev/net/tun"
help
This option sets the TUN/TAP device name in your host system.
config ETH_NATIVE_POSIX_PTP_CLOCK
bool "PTP clock driver support"
default y if NET_GPTP || PTP
select PTP_CLOCK
depends on NET_GPTP || PTP
help
Enable PTP clock support.
config ETH_NATIVE_POSIX_RANDOM_MAC
bool "Random MAC address"
depends on ENTROPY_GENERATOR
default y
help
Generate a random MAC address dynamically.
config ETH_NATIVE_POSIX_VLAN_TAG_STRIP
bool "Strip VLAN tag from Rx frames"
depends on NET_VLAN
help
Native posix ethernet driver will strip of VLAN tag from
Rx Ethernet frames and sets tag information in net packet
metadata.
config ETH_NATIVE_POSIX_MAC_ADDR
string "MAC address for the interface"
default ""
depends on !ETH_NATIVE_POSIX_RANDOM_MAC
help
Specify a MAC address for the ethernet interface in the form of
six hex 8-bit chars separated by colons (e.g.:
aa:33:cc:22:e2:c0). The default is an empty string, which
means the code will make 00:00:5E:00:53:XX, where XX will be
random.
config ETH_NATIVE_POSIX_RX_TIMEOUT
int "Ethernet RX timeout"
default 1 if NET_GPTP
default 50
range 1 100
help
Native posix ethernet driver repeatedly checks for new data.
Specify how long the thread sleeps between these checks if no new data
available.
