Drivers
|
||||
-------
|
||||
|
||||
The OHCI-1394 drivers in drivers/firewire and drivers/ieee1394 initialize
|
||||
the OHCI-1394 controllers to a working state and can be used to enable
|
||||
physical DMA. By default you only have to load the driver, and physical
|
||||
DMA access will be granted to all remote nodes, but it can be turned off
|
||||
when using the ohci1394 driver.
|
||||
The ohci1394 driver in drivers/ieee1394 initializes the OHCI-1394 controllers
|
||||
to a working state and enables physical DMA by default for all remote nodes.
|
||||
This can be turned off by ohci1394's module parameter phys_dma=0.
|
||||
|
||||
Because these drivers depend on the PCI enumeration to be completed, an
|
||||
initialization routine which can runs pretty early (long before console_init(),
|
||||
The alternative firewire-ohci driver in drivers/firewire uses filtered physical
|
||||
DMA, hence is not yet suitable for remote debugging.
|
||||
|
||||
Because ohci1394 depends on the PCI enumeration to be completed, an
|
||||
initialization routine which runs pretty early (long before console_init()
|
||||
which makes the printk buffer appear on the console can be called) was written.

To activate it, enable CONFIG_PROVIDE_OHCI1394_DMA_INIT (Kernel hacking menu:
