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.

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.

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.

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

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.

To compile this driver as a module, say M here:  The module will be
called firewire-net.

Nosy is an IEEE 1394 packet sniffer that is used for protocol
analysis and in development of IEEE 1394 drivers, applications,
or firmwares.

This driver lets you use a Texas Instruments PCILynx 1394 to PCI
link layer controller TSB12LV21/A/B as a low-budget bus analyzer.
PCILynx is a nowadays very rare IEEE 1394 controller which is
not OHCI 1394 compliant.

The following cards are known to be based on PCILynx or PCILynx-2:
IOI IOI-1394TT (PCI card), Unibrain Fireboard 400 PCI Lynx-2
(PCI card), Newer Technology FireWire 2 Go (CardBus card),
Apple Power Mac G3 blue & white and G4 with PCI graphics
(onboard controller).

To compile this driver as a module, say M here:  The module will be
called nosy.  Source code of a userspace interface to nosy, called
nosy-dump, can be found in tools/firewire/ of the kernel sources.

If unsure, say N.
