Alas that won't work so good, because nobody reads help texts. I thought about adding some crude multiple choice selection (build the old stack, build the new stack, build both stacks). It's possible, but it would introduce awkward dummy config variables. Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>

This is the "Juju" FireWire stack, a new alternative implementation
|
|
designed for robustness and simplicity. You can build either this
|
|
stack, or the classic stack (the ieee1394 driver, ohci1394 etc.)
|
|
or both.
|
|
|
|
To compile this driver as a module, say M here: the module will be
|
|
called firewire-core. It functionally replaces ieee1394, raw1394,
|
|
and video1394.
|
|
|
|
NOTE:
|
|
|
|
You should only build ONE of the stacks, unless you REALLY know what
|
|
you are doing. If you install both, you should configure them only as
|
|
modules rather than link them statically, and you should blacklist one
|
|
of the concurrent low-level drivers in /etc/modprobe.conf. Add either
|
|
|
|
blacklist firewire-ohci
|
|
or
|
|
blacklist ohci1394
|
|
|
|
there depending on which driver you DON'T want to have auto-loaded.
|
|
You can optionally do the same with the other IEEE 1394/ FireWire
|
|
drivers.
|
|
|
|
If you have an old modprobe which doesn't implement the blacklist
|
|
directive, use either
|
|
|
|
install firewire-ohci /bin/true
|
|
or
|
|
install ohci1394 /bin/true
|
|
|
|
and so on, depending on which modules you DON't want to have
|
|
auto-loaded.

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 firewire-ohci. It replaces ohci1394 of the classic IEEE 1394
|
|
stack.
|
|
|
|
NOTE:
|
|
|
|
If you also build ohci1394 of the classic stack, blacklist either
|
|
ohci1394 or firewire-ohci to let hotplug load only the desired driver.

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 firewire-sbp2. It replaces sbp2 of the classic IEEE 1394
|
|
stack.
|
|
|
|
You should also enable support for disks, CD-ROMs, etc. in the SCSI
|
|
configuration section.
|
|
|
|
NOTE:
|
|
|
|
If you also build sbp2 of the classic stack, blacklist either sbp2
|
|
or firewire-sbp2 to let hotplug load only the desired driver.
