10 IEEE 1394 describes a high performance serial bus, which is also
11 known as FireWire(tm) or i.Link(tm) and is used for connecting all
12 sorts of devices (most notably digital video cameras) to your
15 If you have FireWire hardware and want to use it, say Y here. This
16 is the core support only, you will also need to select a driver for
17 your IEEE 1394 adapter.
19 To compile this driver as a module, say M here: the
20 module will be called ieee1394.
22 config IEEE1394_OHCI1394
23 tristate "OHCI-1394 controllers"
24 depends on PCI && IEEE1394
26 Enable this driver if you have an IEEE 1394 controller based on the
27 OHCI-1394 specification. The current driver is only tested with OHCI
28 chipsets made by Texas Instruments and NEC. Most third-party vendors
29 use one of these chipsets. It should work with any OHCI-1394
30 compliant card, however.
32 To compile this driver as a module, say M here: the
33 module will be called ohci1394.
36 If you want to install firewire-ohci and ohci1394 together, you
37 should configure them only as modules and blacklist the driver(s)
38 which you don't want to have auto-loaded. Add either
40 blacklist firewire-ohci
46 to /etc/modprobe.conf or /etc/modprobe.d/* and update modprobe.conf
47 depending on your distribution.

50 depends on IEEE1394 && I2C=n
52 config IEEE1394_PCILYNX
53 tristate "PCILynx controller"
54 depends on PCI && IEEE1394 && I2C
57 Say Y here if you have an IEEE-1394 controller with the Texas
58 Instruments PCILynx chip. Note: this driver is written for revision
59 2 of this chip and may not work with revision 0.
61 To compile this driver as a module, say M here: the
62 module will be called pcilynx.
64 Only some old and now very rare PCI and CardBus cards and
65 PowerMacs G3 B&W contain the PCILynx controller. Therefore
66 almost everybody can say N here.
68 comment "SBP-2 support (for storage devices) requires SCSI"
69 depends on IEEE1394 && SCSI=n
72 tristate "Storage devices (SBP-2 protocol)"
73 depends on IEEE1394 && SCSI
75 This option enables you to use SBP-2 devices connected to an IEEE
76 1394 bus. SBP-2 devices include storage devices like harddisks and
77 DVD drives, also some other FireWire devices like scanners.
79 You should also enable support for disks, CD-ROMs, etc. in the SCSI
80 configuration section.
82 config IEEE1394_SBP2_PHYS_DMA
83 bool "Enable replacement for physical DMA in SBP2"
84 depends on IEEE1394_SBP2 && VIRT_TO_BUS && EXPERIMENTAL
86 This builds sbp2 for use with non-OHCI host adapters which do not
87 support physical DMA or for when ohci1394 is run with phys_dma=0.
88 Physical DMA is data movement without assistance of the drivers'
89 interrupt handlers. This option includes the interrupt handlers
90 that are required in absence of this hardware feature.
92 This option is buggy and currently broken on some architectures.
95 config IEEE1394_ETH1394_ROM_ENTRY

101 tristate "IP networking over 1394 (experimental)"
102 depends on IEEE1394 && EXPERIMENTAL && INET
103 select IEEE1394_ETH1394_ROM_ENTRY
105 This driver implements a functional majority of RFC 2734: IPv4 over
106 1394. It will provide IP connectivity with implementations of RFC
107 2734 found on other operating systems. It will not communicate with
108 older versions of this driver found in stock kernels prior to 2.6.3.
109 This driver is still considered experimental. It does not yet support
110 MCAP, therefore multicast support is significantly limited.
112 The module is called eth1394 although it does not emulate Ethernet.
114 config IEEE1394_RAWIO
115 tristate "raw1394 userspace interface"
118 This option adds support for the raw1394 device file which enables
119 direct communication of user programs with IEEE 1394 devices
120 (isochronous and asynchronous). Almost all application programs
121 which access FireWire require this option.
123 To compile this driver as a module, say M here: the module will be
126 config IEEE1394_VIDEO1394
127 tristate "video1394 userspace interface"
128 depends on IEEE1394 && IEEE1394_OHCI1394
130 This option adds support for the video1394 device files which enable
131 isochronous communication of user programs with IEEE 1394 devices,
132 especially video capture or export. This interface is used by all
133 libdc1394 based programs and by several other programs, in addition to
134 the raw1394 interface. It is generally not required for DV capture.
136 To compile this driver as a module, say M here: the module will be
139 config IEEE1394_DV1394
140 tristate "dv1394 userspace interface (deprecated)"
141 depends on IEEE1394 && IEEE1394_OHCI1394
143 The dv1394 driver is unsupported and may be removed from Linux in a
144 future release. Its functionality is now provided by raw1394 together
145 with libraries such as libiec61883.
147 config IEEE1394_VERBOSEDEBUG
148 bool "Excessive debugging output"
151 If you say Y here, you will get very verbose debugging logs from the
152 ieee1394 drivers, including sent and received packet headers. This
153 will quickly result in large amounts of data sent to the system log.
155 Say Y if you really need the debugging output. Everyone else says N.
