11 IEEE 1394 describes a high performance serial bus, which is also
12 known as FireWire(tm) or i.Link(tm) and is used for connecting all
13 sorts of devices (most notably digital video cameras) to your
16 If you have FireWire hardware and want to use it, say Y here. This
17 is the core support only, you will also need to select a driver for
18 your IEEE 1394 adapter.
20 To compile this driver as a module, say M here: the module will be
23 This is the "JUJU" FireWire stack, an alternative implementation
24 designed for robustness and simplicity. You can build either this
25 stack, or the classic stack (the ieee1394 driver, ohci1394 etc.)
29 tristate "Support for OHCI FireWire host controllers"
30 depends on PCI && FIREWIRE
32 Enable this driver if you have a FireWire controller based
33 on the OHCI specification. For all practical purposes, this
34 is the only chipset in use, so say Y here.
36 To compile this driver as a module, say M here: The module will be
39 If you also build ohci1394 of the classic IEEE 1394 driver stack,
40 blacklist either ohci1394 or firewire-ohci to let hotplug load the
44 tristate "Support for storage devices (SBP-2 protocol driver)"
45 depends on FIREWIRE && SCSI
47 This option enables you to use SBP-2 devices connected to a
48 FireWire bus. SBP-2 devices include storage devices like
49 harddisks and DVD drives, also some other FireWire devices
52 To compile this driver as a module, say M here: The module will be
55 You should also enable support for disks, CD-ROMs, etc. in the SCSI
56 configuration section.
58 If you also build sbp2 of the classic IEEE 1394 driver stack,
59 blacklist either sbp2 or firewire-sbp2 to let hotplug load the
