8 config ARCNET
9 tristate "ARCnet support"
10 ---help---
11 If you have a network card of this type, say Y and check out the
12 (arguably) beautiful poetry in
13 <file:Documentation/networking/arcnet.txt>.
14
15 You need both this driver, and the driver for the particular ARCnet
16 chipset of your card. If you don't know, then it's probably a
17 COM90xx type card, so say Y (or M) to "ARCnet COM90xx chipset
18 support" below.
19
20 You might also want to have a look at the Ethernet-HOWTO, available
21 from <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>(even though ARCnet
22 is not really Ethernet).
23
24 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here and read
25 <file:Documentation/networking/net-modules.txt>. The module will
26 be called arcnet.
27
28 config ARCNET_1201
29 tristate "Enable standard ARCNet packet format (RFC 1201)"
30 depends on ARCNET
31 help
32 This allows you to use RFC1201 with your ARCnet card via the virtual
33 arc0 device. You need to say Y here to communicate with
34 industry-standard RFC1201 implementations, like the arcether.com
35 packet driver or most DOS/Windows ODI drivers. Please read the
36 ARCnet documentation in <file:Documentation/networking/arcnet.txt>
37 for more information about using arc0.
38
39 config ARCNET_1051
40 tristate "Enable old ARCNet packet format (RFC 1051)"
41 depends on ARCNET
42 ---help---
43 This allows you to use RFC1051 with your ARCnet card via the virtual
44 arc0s device. You only need arc0s if you want to talk to ARCnet
45 software complying with the "old" standard, specifically, the DOS
46 arcnet.com packet driver, Amigas running AmiTCP, and some variants
47 of NetBSD. You do not need to say Y here to communicate with
48 industry-standard RFC1201 implementations, like the arcether.com
49 packet driver or most DOS/Windows ODI drivers. RFC1201 is included
50 automatically as the arc0 device. Please read the ARCnet
51 documentation in <file:Documentation/networking/arcnet.txt> for more
52 information about using arc0e and arc0s.
53
54 config ARCNET_RAW
55 tristate "Enable raw mode packet interface"
56 depends on ARCNET
57 help
58 ARCnet "raw mode" packet encapsulation, no soft headers. Unlikely
59 to work unless talking to a copy of the same Linux arcnet driver,
60 but perhaps marginally faster in that case.
61
62 config ARCNET_CAP
63 tristate "Enable CAP mode packet interface"
64 depends on ARCNET
65 help
66 ARCnet "cap mode" packet encapsulation. Used to get the hardware
67 acknowledge back to userspace. After the initial protocol byte every
68 packet is stuffed with an extra 4 byte "cookie" which doesn't
69 actually appear on the network. After transmit the driver will send
70 back a packet with protocol byte 0 containing the status of the
71 transmission:
72 0=no hardware acknowledge
73 1=excessive nak
74 2=transmission accepted by the receiver hardware
75
76 Received packets are also stuffed with the extra 4 bytes but it will
77 be random data.
78
79 Cap only listens to protocol 1-8.
80
81 config ARCNET_COM90xx
82 tristate "ARCnet COM90xx (normal) chipset driver"
83 depends on ARCNET
84 help
85 This is the chipset driver for the standard COM90xx cards. If you
86 have always used the old ARCnet driver without knowing what type of
87 card you had, this is probably the one for you.
88
89 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here and read
90 <file:Documentation/networking/net-modules.txt>. The module will
91 be called com90xx.
92
93 config ARCNET_COM90xxIO
94 tristate "ARCnet COM90xx (IO mapped) chipset driver"
95 depends on ARCNET
96 ---help---
97 This is the chipset driver for the COM90xx cards, using them in
98 IO-mapped mode instead of memory-mapped mode. This is slower than
99 the normal driver. Only use it if your card doesn't support shared
100 memory.
101
102 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here and read
103 <file:Documentation/networking/net-modules.txt>. The module will
104 be called com90io.
105
106 config ARCNET_RIM_I
107 tristate "ARCnet COM90xx (RIM I) chipset driver"
108 depends on ARCNET
109 ---help---
110 This is yet another chipset driver for the COM90xx cards, but this
111 time only using memory-mapped mode, and no IO ports at all. This
112 driver is completely untested, so if you have one of these cards,
113 please mail <dwmw2@infradead.org>, especially if it works!
114
115 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here and read
116 <file:Documentation/networking/net-modules.txt>. The module will
117 be called arc-rimi.
118
119 config ARCNET_COM20020
120 tristate "ARCnet COM20020 chipset driver"
121 depends on ARCNET
122 help
123 This is the driver for the new COM20020 chipset. It supports such
124 things as promiscuous mode, so packet sniffing is possible, and
125 extra diagnostic information.
126
127 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here and read
128 <file:Documentation/networking/net-modules.txt>. The module will
129 be called com20020.
