comment "An alternative FireWire stack is available with EXPERIMENTAL=y"
depends on EXPERIMENTAL=n
config FW
tristate "IEEE 1394 (FireWire) support (JUJU alternative stack, experimental)"
depends on EXPERIMENTAL
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 fw-core.
This is the "JUJU" FireWire stack, an alternative implementation
designed for robustness and simplicity. You can build either this
stack, or the classic stack (the ieee1394 driver, ohci1394 etc.)
or both.
config FW_OHCI
tristate "Support for OHCI FireWire host controllers"
depends on PCI && FW
help
Enable this driver if you have a FireWire controller based
on the OHCI specification. For all practical purposes, this
is the only chipset in use, so say Y here.
To compile this driver as a module, say M here: The module will be
called fw-ohci.
If you also build ohci1394 of the classic IEEE 1394 driver stack,
blacklist either ohci1394 or fw-ohci to let hotplug load the desired
driver.
config FW_SBP2
tristate "Support for storage devices (SBP-2 protocol driver)"
depends on FW && SCSI
help
This option enables you to use SBP-2 devices connected to a
FireWire bus. SBP-2 devices include storage devices like
harddisks and DVD drives, also some other FireWire devices
like scanners.
To compile this driver as a module, say M here: The module will be
called fw-sbp2.
You should also enable support for disks, CD-ROMs, etc. in the SCSI
configuration section.
If you also build sbp2 of the classic IEEE 1394 driver stack,
blacklist either sbp2 or fw-sbp2 to let hotplug load the desired
driver.
