3Com Vortex device driver
=========================

Andrew Morton

30 April 2000


This document describes the usage and errata of the 3Com "Vortex" device
driver for Linux, 3c59x.c.

The driver was written by Donald Becker <becker@scyld.com>

Don is no longer the prime maintainer of this version of the driver.
Please report problems to one or more of:

- Andrew Morton
- Netdev mailing list <netdev@vger.kernel.org>
- Linux kernel mailing list <linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org>

Please note the 'Reporting and Diagnosing Problems' section at the end
of this file.

Implementation Notes

This generated page is the file-by-file coverage layer; curated subsystem chapters should link here when they synthesize a multi-file control flow.
Core OS pages should be promoted from atlas-only to deep-reviewed when they explain data structures, invariants, locking, lifecycle, and C implementation snippets.
Driver-family pages are intentionally pattern-oriented unless they are part of the selected PCIe/NVMe representative device path.
