tristate "FireWire driver stack"
This is the new-generation IEEE 1394 (FireWire) driver stack
a.k.a. Juju, a new implementation designed for robustness and
simplicity.
See http://ieee1394.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Juju_Migration
for information about migration from the older Linux 1394 stack
to the new driver stack.
To compile this driver as a module, say M here: the module will be
called firewire-core.
This module functionally replaces ieee1394, raw1394, and video1394.
To access it from application programs, you generally need at least
libraw1394 v2. IIDC/DCAM applications need libdc1394 v2.
No libraries are required to access storage devices through the
firewire-sbp2 driver.
NOTE:
FireWire audio devices currently require the old drivers (ieee1394,
ohci1394, raw1394).
depends on PCI && FIREWIRE
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.
If you want to install firewire-ohci and ohci1394 together, you
should configure them only as modules and blacklist the driver(s)
which you don't want to have auto-loaded. Add either
blacklist firewire-ohci
or
blacklist ohci1394
blacklist video1394
blacklist dv1394
to /etc/modprobe.conf or /etc/modprobe.d/* and update modprobe.conf
depending on your distribution.

default y
tristate "Storage devices (SBP-2 protocol)"
depends on FIREWIRE && SCSI
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.
tristate "IP networking over 1394 (EXPERIMENTAL)"
depends on FIREWIRE && INET && EXPERIMENTAL
help
This enables IPv4 over IEEE 1394, providing IP connectivity with
other implementations of RFC 2734 as found on several operating
systems. Multicast support is currently limited.
NOTE, this driver is not stable yet!
To compile this driver as a module, say M here: The module will be
called firewire-net. It replaces eth1394 of the classic IEEE 1394
stack.
