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 module will be
22 This is the "JUJU" FireWire stack, an alternative implementation
23 designed for robustness and simplicity. You can build either this
24 stack, or the classic stack (the ieee1394 driver, ohci1394 etc.)
28 tristate "Support for OHCI FireWire host controllers"
31 Enable this driver if you have a FireWire controller based
32 on the OHCI specification. For all practical purposes, this
33 is the only chipset in use, so say Y here.
35 To compile this driver as a module, say M here: The module will be
38 If you also build ohci1394 of the classic IEEE 1394 driver stack,
39 blacklist either ohci1394 or fw-ohci to let hotplug load the desired
43 tristate "Support for storage devices (SBP-2 protocol driver)"
46 This option enables you to use SBP-2 devices connected to a
47 FireWire bus. SBP-2 devices include storage devices like
48 harddisks and DVD drives, also some other FireWire devices
51 To compile this driver as a module, say M here: The module will be
54 You should also enable support for disks, CD-ROMs, etc. in the SCSI
55 configuration section.
57 If you also build sbp2 of the classic IEEE 1394 driver stack,
58 blacklist either sbp2 or fw-sbp2 to let hotplug load the desired
