hardware OS4   hardware OS4 : onboard Ethernet driver for the AmigaOne X1000
   posted by kas1e on 26-Mar-2026 20:48:36 (28 reads)
@All

Since beginning owners of AmigaONE x1000 have no ability to use onboard ethernet driver due to different issues preventing of making it.

With this opensource version i hope to cover this gap; download it from os4depot while it hot !

https://os4depot.net/share/driver/network/pa6t_eth.lha

Driver features:

- 1 Gbps full duplex
- Used combo of DMA, MAC (OS4's ReadConfigLong/WriteConfigLong) and IOB (direct ECAM access) onboard devices.
- Interrupts with batch processing up to 64 packets per wakeup (currently only RX path is interrupt driven). IRQ handler itself also uses direct ECAM access to DMA because of IRQ context.
- All errata based workarounds found in Linux version (errata 5971, PKTHDRCNT reset, etc.)
- Current transfer speed (local network download): ~27 MB/s which is ~22% of 1 Gbps wire speed.

The source code available on github there:

Have fun !
