Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!

10 | Say Y here if you want to build support for the IrDA (TM) protocols. | ||
11 | The Infrared Data Associations (tm) specifies standards for wireless | ||
12 | infrared communication and is supported by most laptops and PDA's. | ||
13 | |||
14 | To use Linux support for the IrDA (tm) protocols, you will also need | ||
15 | some user-space utilities like irattach. For more information, see | ||
16 | the file <file:Documentation/networking/irda.txt>. You also want to | ||
17 | read the IR-HOWTO, available at | ||
18 | <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. | ||
19 | |||
20 | If you want to exchange bits of data (vCal, vCard) with a PDA, you | ||
21 | will need to install some OBEX application, such as OpenObex : | ||
22 | <http://sourceforge.net/projects/openobex/> | ||
23 | |||
24 | To compile this support as a module, choose M here: the module will | ||
25 | be called irda. | ||

40 | Say Y here to support the connectionless Ultra IRDA protocol. | ||
41 | Ultra allows to exchange data over IrDA with really simple devices | ||
42 | (watch, beacon) without the overhead of the IrDA protocol (no handshaking, | ||
43 | no management frames, simple fixed header). | ||
44 | Ultra is available as a special socket : socket(AF_IRDA, SOCK_DGRAM, 1); | ||

51 | depends on IRDA | ||
52 | help | ||
53 | Say Y here if you want IrLMP to cache the last LSAP used. This | ||
54 | makes sense since most frames will be sent/received on the same | ||
55 | connection. Enabling this option will save a hash-lookup per frame. | ||
56 | |||
57 | If unsure, say Y. | ||
58 | |||
59 | config IRDA_FAST_RR | ||
60 | bool "Fast RRs (low latency)" | ||
61 | depends on IRDA | ||
62 | ---help--- | ||
63 | Say Y here is you want IrLAP to send fast RR (Receive Ready) frames | ||
64 | when acting as a primary station. | ||
65 | Disabling this option will make latency over IrDA very bad. Enabling | ||
66 | this option will make the IrDA stack send more packet than strictly | ||
67 | necessary, thus reduce your battery life (but not that much). | ||
68 | |||
69 | Fast RR will make IrLAP send out a RR frame immediately when | ||
70 | receiving a frame if its own transmit queue is currently empty. This | ||
71 | will give a lot of speed improvement when receiving much data since | ||
72 | the secondary station will not have to wait the max. turn around | ||
73 | time (usually 500ms) before it is allowed to transmit the next time. | ||
74 | If the transmit queue of the secondary is also empty, the primary will | ||
75 | start backing-off before sending another RR frame, waiting longer | ||
76 | each time until the back-off reaches the max. turn around time. | ||
77 | This back-off increase in controlled via | ||
78 | /proc/sys/net/irda/fast_poll_increase | ||
79 | |||
80 | If unsure, say Y. | ||

82 | config IRDA_DEBUG | ||
83 | bool "Debug information" | ||
84 | depends on IRDA | ||
85 | help | ||
86 | Say Y here if you want the IrDA subsystem to write debug information | ||
87 | to your syslog. You can change the debug level in | ||
88 | /proc/sys/net/irda/debug . | ||
89 | When this option is enabled, the IrDA also perform many extra internal | ||
90 | verifications which will usually prevent the kernel to crash in case of | ||
91 | bugs. | ||
92 | |||
93 | If unsure, say Y (since it makes it easier to find the bugs). | ||
