The new stack is now recommended over the old one if used for industrial video (IIDC/DCAM) or for storage devices (SBP-2) due to better performance, improved compatibility, added features, and security. It should also be functionally on par with and is more secure than the old ieee1394 stack in the use case of consumer video devices. IP-over-1394 support for the new stack is currently emerging, and a backend of the firedtv DVB driver to the new stack should be available soon. The one remaining area where the old stack is still required are audio devices, as the new stack is not yet able to support the FFADO FireWire audio framework.

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 ieee1394.

help
|
|
Enable this driver if you have an IEEE 1394 controller based on the
|
|
OHCI-1394 specification. The current driver is only tested with OHCI
|
|
chipsets made by Texas Instruments and NEC. Most third-party vendors
|
|
use one of these chipsets. It should work with any OHCI-1394
|
|
compliant card, however.
|
|
|
|
To compile this driver as a module, say M here: the
|
|
module will be called ohci1394.
|
|
|
|
NOTE:
|
|
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.

Say Y here if you have an IEEE-1394 controller with the Texas
|
|
Instruments PCILynx chip. Note: this driver is written for revision
|
|
2 of this chip and may not work with revision 0.
|
|
|

To compile this driver as a module, say M here: the
|
|
module will be called pcilynx.
|
|
|
|
Only some old and now very rare PCI and CardBus cards and
|
|
PowerMacs G3 B&W contain the PCILynx controller. Therefore
|
|
almost everybody can say N here.

This option enables you to use SBP-2 devices connected to an IEEE

|
1394 bus. SBP-2 devices include storage devices like harddisks and
|
|
DVD drives, also some other FireWire devices like scanners.
|

You should also enable support for disks, CD-ROMs, etc. in the SCSI

configuration section.

help
|
|
This builds sbp2 for use with non-OHCI host adapters which do not
|
|
support physical DMA or for when ohci1394 is run with phys_dma=0.
|
|
Physical DMA is data movement without assistance of the drivers'
|
|
interrupt handlers. This option includes the interrupt handlers
|
|
that are required in absence of this hardware feature.
|
|
|
|
This option is buggy and currently broken on some architectures.
|
|
If unsure, say N.

This driver implements a functional majority of RFC 2734: IPv4 over
|
|
1394. It will provide IP connectivity with implementations of RFC
|
|
2734 found on other operating systems. It will not communicate with
|
|
older versions of this driver found in stock kernels prior to 2.6.3.
|
|
This driver is still considered experimental. It does not yet support
|
|
MCAP, therefore multicast support is significantly limited.

The module is called eth1394 although it does not emulate Ethernet.

If you say Y here, you will get very verbose debugging logs from the
|
|
ieee1394 drivers, including sent and received packet headers. This
|
|
will quickly result in large amounts of data sent to the system log.
|
|

Say Y if you really need the debugging output. Everyone else says N.
