  10 config PARPORT
  11         tristate "Parallel port support"
  12         ---help---
  13           If you want to use devices connected to your machine's parallel port
  14           (the connector at the computer with 25 holes), e.g. printer, ZIP
  15           drive, PLIP link (Parallel Line Internet Protocol is mainly used to
  16           create a mini network by connecting the parallel ports of two local
  17           machines) etc., then you need to say Y here; please read
  18           <file:Documentation/parport.txt> and
  19           <file:drivers/parport/BUGS-parport>.
  20
  21           For extensive information about drivers for many devices attaching
  22           to the parallel port see <http://www.torque.net/linux-pp.html> on
  23           the WWW.
  24
  25           It is possible to share a single parallel port among several devices
  26           and it is safe to compile all the corresponding drivers into the
  27           kernel. To compile parallel port support as a module, choose M here:
  28           the module will be called parport.
  29           If you have more than one parallel port and want to specify which
  30           port and IRQ to be used by this driver at module load time, take a
  31           look at <file:Documentation/parport.txt>.
  32
  33           If unsure, say Y.
  34
  35 config PARPORT_PC
  36         tristate "PC-style hardware"
  37         depends on PARPORT && (!SPARC64 || PCI) && !SPARC32 && !M32R && !FRV
  38         ---help---
  39           You should say Y here if you have a PC-style parallel port. All
  40           IBM PC compatible computers and some Alphas have PC-style
  41           parallel ports.  PA-RISC owners should only say Y here if they
  42           have a SuperIO parallel port.
  43
  44           To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
  45           module will be called parport_pc.
  46
  47           If unsure, say Y.
  48
  49 config PARPORT_SERIAL
  50         tristate "Multi-IO cards (parallel and serial)"
  51         depends on SERIAL_8250_PCI && PARPORT_PC && PCI
  52         help
  53           This adds support for multi-IO PCI cards that have parallel and
  54           serial ports.  You should say Y or M here.  If you say M, the module
  55           will be called parport_serial.
  56
  57 config PARPORT_PC_FIFO
  58         bool "Use FIFO/DMA if available (EXPERIMENTAL)"
  59         depends on PARPORT_PC && EXPERIMENTAL
  60         help
  61           Many parallel port chipsets provide hardware that can speed up
  62           printing. Say Y here if you want to take advantage of that.
  63
  64           As well as actually having a FIFO, or DMA capability, the kernel
  65           will need to know which IRQ the parallel port has.  By default,
  66           parallel port interrupts will not be used, and so neither will the
  67           FIFO.  See <file:Documentation/parport.txt> to find out how to
  68           specify which IRQ/DMA to use.
  69
  70 config PARPORT_PC_SUPERIO
  71         bool "SuperIO chipset support (EXPERIMENTAL)"
  72         depends on PARPORT_PC && EXPERIMENTAL
  73         help
  74           Saying Y here enables some probes for Super-IO chipsets in order to
  75           find out things like base addresses, IRQ lines and DMA channels.  It
  76           is safe to say N.
  77
  78 config PARPORT_PC_PCMCIA
  79         tristate "Support for PCMCIA management for PC-style ports"
  80         depends on PCMCIA && PARPORT_PC
  81         help
  82           Say Y here if you need PCMCIA support for your PC-style parallel
  83           ports. If unsure, say N.
  84
  85 config PARPORT_IP32
  86         tristate "SGI IP32 builtin port (EXPERIMENTAL)"
  87         depends on SGI_IP32 && PARPORT && EXPERIMENTAL
  88         select PARPORT_NOT_PC
  89         help
  90           Say Y here if you need support for the parallel port on
  91           SGI O2 machines. This code is also available as a module (say M),
  92           called parport_ip32.  If in doubt, saying N is the safe plan.
  93
  94 config PARPORT_AMIGA
  95         tristate "Amiga builtin port"
  96         depends on AMIGA && PARPORT
  97         select PARPORT_NOT_PC
  98         help
  99           Say Y here if you need support for the parallel port hardware on
 100           Amiga machines. This code is also available as a module (say M),
 101           called parport_amiga. If in doubt, saying N is the safe plan.
 102
 103 config PARPORT_MFC3
 104         tristate "Multiface III parallel port"
 105         depends on ZORRO && PARPORT
 106         select PARPORT_NOT_PC
 107         help
 108           Say Y here if you need parallel port support for the MFC3 card.
 109           This code is also available as a module (say M), called
 110           parport_mfc3. If in doubt, saying N is the safe plan.
 111
 112 config PARPORT_ATARI
 113         tristate "Atari hardware"
 114         depends on ATARI && PARPORT
 115         select PARPORT_NOT_PC
 116         help
 117           Say Y here if you need support for the parallel port hardware on
 118           Atari machines. This code is also available as a module (say M),
 119           called parport_atari. If in doubt, saying N is the safe plan.
 120
 121 config PARPORT_GSC
 122         tristate
 123         default GSC
 124         depends on PARPORT
 125         select PARPORT_NOT_PC
 126
 127 config PARPORT_SUNBPP
 128         tristate "Sparc hardware (EXPERIMENTAL)"
 129         depends on SBUS && PARPORT && EXPERIMENTAL
 130         select PARPORT_NOT_PC
 131         help
 132           This driver provides support for the bidirectional parallel port
 133           found on many Sun machines. Note that many of the newer Ultras
 134           actually have pc style hardware instead.
 135
 136 config PARPORT_AX88796
 137         tristate "AX88796 Parallel Port"
 138         depends on PARPORT
 139         select PARPORT_NOT_PC
 140         help
 141           Say Y here if you need support for the parallel port hardware on
 142           the AX88796 network controller chip. This code is also available
 143           as a module (say M), called parport_ax88796.
 144
 145           The driver is not dependant on the AX88796 network driver, and
 146           should not interfere with the networking functions of the chip.
 147
 148 config PARPORT_1284
 149         bool "IEEE 1284 transfer modes"
 150         depends on PARPORT
 151         help
 152           If you have a printer that supports status readback or device ID, or
 153           want to use a device that uses enhanced parallel port transfer modes
 154           such as EPP and ECP, say Y here to enable advanced IEEE 1284
 155           transfer modes. Also say Y if you want device ID information to
 156           appear in /proc/sys/dev/parport/*/autoprobe*. It is safe to say N.
