config IEEE1394
tristate "IEEE 1394 (FireWire) support"
depends on PCI || BROKEN
help
IEEE 1394 describes a high performance serial bus, which is also
known as FireWire(tm) or i.Link(tm) and is used for connecting all
sorts of devices (most notably digital video cameras) to your
computer.
If you have FireWire hardware and want to use it, say Y here. This
is the core support only, you will also need to select a driver for
your IEEE 1394 adapter.
To compile this driver as a module, say M here: the
module will be called ieee1394.
comment "Subsystem Options"
depends on IEEE1394
config IEEE1394_VERBOSEDEBUG
bool "Excessive debugging output"
depends on IEEE1394
help
If you say Y here, you will get very verbose debugging logs from
the subsystem which includes a dump of the header of every sent
and received packet. This can amount to a high amount of data
collected in a very short time which is usually also saved to
disk by the system logging daemons.
Say Y if you really want or need the debugging output, everyone
else says N.

comment "Texas Instruments PCILynx requires I2C"
depends on IEEE1394 && I2C=n
config IEEE1394_PCILYNX
tristate "Texas Instruments PCILynx support"
depends on PCI && IEEE1394 && I2C
select I2C_ALGOBIT
help
Say Y here if you have an IEEE-1394 controller with the Texas
Instruments PCILynx chip. Note: this driver is written for revision
2 of this chip and may not work with revision 0.
To compile this driver as a module, say M here: the
module will be called pcilynx.
Only some old and now very rare PCI and CardBus cards and
PowerMacs G3 B&W contain the PCILynx controller. Therefore
almost everybody can say N here.
config IEEE1394_OHCI1394
tristate "OHCI-1394 support"
depends on PCI && IEEE1394
help
Enable this driver if you have an IEEE 1394 controller based on the
OHCI-1394 specification. The current driver is only tested with OHCI
chipsets made by Texas Instruments and NEC. Most third-party vendors
use one of these chipsets. It should work with any OHCI-1394
compliant card, however.
To compile this driver as a module, say M here: the
module will be called ohci1394.
comment "Protocols"
depends on IEEE1394
config IEEE1394_VIDEO1394
tristate "OHCI-1394 Video support"
depends on IEEE1394 && IEEE1394_OHCI1394
help
This option enables video device usage for OHCI-1394 cards. Enable
this option only if you have an IEEE 1394 video device connected to
an OHCI-1394 card.
comment "SBP-2 support (for storage devices) requires SCSI"
depends on IEEE1394 && SCSI=n
config IEEE1394_SBP2
tristate "SBP-2 support (Harddisks etc.)"
depends on IEEE1394 && SCSI
help
This option enables you to use SBP-2 devices connected to an IEEE
1394 bus. SBP-2 devices include storage devices like harddisks and
DVD drives, also some other FireWire devices like scanners.
You should also enable support for disks, CD-ROMs, etc. in the SCSI
configuration section.
config IEEE1394_SBP2_PHYS_DMA
bool "Enable replacement for physical DMA in SBP2"
depends on IEEE1394 && IEEE1394_SBP2 && EXPERIMENTAL && (X86_32 || PPC_32)
help
This builds sbp2 for use with non-OHCI host adapters which do not
support physical DMA or for when ohci1394 is run with phys_dma=0.
Physical DMA is data movement without assistance of the drivers'
interrupt handlers. This option includes the interrupt handlers
that are required in absence of this hardware feature.
This option is buggy and currently broken on some architectures.
If unsure, say N.
config IEEE1394_ETH1394_ROM_ENTRY
depends on IEEE1394
bool
default n
config IEEE1394_ETH1394
tristate "IP over 1394"
depends on IEEE1394 && EXPERIMENTAL && INET
select IEEE1394_ETH1394_ROM_ENTRY
help
This driver implements a functional majority of RFC 2734: IPv4 over
1394. It will provide IP connectivity with implementations of RFC
2734 found on other operating systems. It will not communicate with
older versions of this driver found in stock kernels prior to 2.6.3.
This driver is still considered experimental. It does not yet support
MCAP, therefore multicast support is significantly limited.
The module is called eth1394 although it does not emulate Ethernet.
config IEEE1394_DV1394
tristate "OHCI-DV I/O support (deprecated)"
depends on IEEE1394 && IEEE1394_OHCI1394
help
The dv1394 driver is unsupported and may be removed from Linux in a
future release. Its functionality is now provided by raw1394 together
with libraries such as libiec61883.
config IEEE1394_RAWIO
tristate "Raw IEEE1394 I/O support"
depends on IEEE1394
help
This option adds support for the raw1394 device file which enables
direct communication of user programs with the IEEE 1394 bus and thus
with the attached peripherals. Almost all application programs which
access FireWire require this option.
To compile this driver as a module, say M here: the module will be
called raw1394.
