The atse device driver provides support
for the Altera Triple-Speed Ethernet MegaCore.
The current version of the atse driver
supports the Ethernet MegaCore as described in version 11.1 of Altera's
documentation when the device is configured with internal FIFOs.
The default MAC address for each atse
interface is derived from a value stored in cfi(4) flash.
The value is managed by the atsectl(8) utility.
Only a single MAC address may be stored in flash. If the address begins with the Altera prefix 00:07:ed and ends in 00 then up to 16 addresses will be derived from it by adding the unit number of the interface to the stored address. For other prefixes, the address will be assigned to atse0 and random addresses will be used for other interfaces. If the stored address is invalid, for example all zero's, multicast, or the default address shipped on all DE4 boards (00:07:ed:ff:ed:15) then a random address is generated when the device is attached.

Triple-Speed Ethernet MegaCore Function User Guide, Altera Corporation, November 2011.
The atse device driver first appeared in
FreeBSD 10.0.
The atse device driver and this manual
page were developed by SRI International and the University of Cambridge
Computer Laboratory under DARPA/AFRL contract (FA8750-10-C-0237)
(“CTSRD”), as part of the DARPA CRASH research programme. This
device driver was written by Bjoern A. Zeeb.
The atse driver only supports a single
configuration of the MegaCore as installed on the Terasic Technologies
Altera DE4 Development and Education Board.
Only gigabit Ethernet speeds are currently supported.
