2config MKISS
3	tristate "Serial port KISS driver"
4	depends on AX25 && TTY
5	select CRC16
6	help
7	  KISS is a protocol used for the exchange of data between a computer
8	  and a Terminal Node Controller (a small embedded system commonly
9	  used for networking over AX.25 amateur radio connections; it
10	  connects the computer's serial port with the radio's microphone
11	  input and speaker output).
12
13	  Although KISS is less advanced than the 6pack protocol, it has
14	  the advantage that it is already supported by most modern TNCs
15	  without the need for a firmware upgrade.
16
17	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
18	  will be called mkiss.
19
20config 6PACK
21	tristate "Serial port 6PACK driver"
22	depends on AX25 && TTY
23	help
24	  6pack is a transmission protocol for the data exchange between your
25	  PC and your TNC (the Terminal Node Controller acts as a kind of
26	  modem connecting your computer's serial port to your radio's
27	  microphone input and speaker output). This protocol can be used as
28	  an alternative to KISS for networking over AX.25 amateur radio
29	  connections, but it has some extended functionality.
30
31	  Note that this driver is still experimental and might cause
32	  problems. For details about the features and the usage of the
33	  driver, read <file:Documentation/networking/6pack.rst>.
34
35	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
36	  will be called 6pack.

38config BPQETHER
39	tristate "BPQ Ethernet driver"
40	depends on AX25
41	help
42	  AX.25 is the protocol used for computer communication over amateur
43	  radio. If you say Y here, you will be able to send and receive AX.25
44	  traffic over Ethernet (also called "BPQ AX.25"), which could be
45	  useful if some other computer on your local network has a direct
46	  amateur radio connection.
47
48config DMASCC
49	tristate "High-speed (DMA) SCC driver for AX.25"
50	depends on ISA && AX25 && BROKEN_ON_SMP && ISA_DMA_API
51	help
52	  This is a driver for high-speed SCC boards, i.e. those supporting
53	  DMA on one port. You usually use those boards to connect your
54	  computer to an amateur radio modem (such as the WA4DSY 56kbps
55	  modem), in order to send and receive AX.25 packet radio network
56	  traffic.
57
58	  Currently, this driver supports Ottawa PI/PI2, Paccomm/Gracilis
59	  PackeTwin, and S5SCC/DMA boards. They are detected automatically.
60	  If you have one of these cards, say Y here and read the AX25-HOWTO,
61	  available from <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
62
63	  This driver can operate multiple boards simultaneously. If you
64	  compile it as a module (by saying M instead of Y), it will be called
65	  dmascc. If you don't pass any parameter to the driver, all
66	  possible I/O addresses are probed. This could irritate other devices
67	  that are currently not in use. You may specify the list of addresses
68	  to be probed by "dmascc.io=addr1,addr2,..." (when compiled into the
69	  kernel image) or "io=addr1,addr2,..." (when loaded as a module). The
70	  network interfaces will be called dmascc0 and dmascc1 for the board
71	  detected first, dmascc2 and dmascc3 for the second one, and so on.
72
73	  Before you configure each interface with ifconfig, you MUST set
74	  certain parameters, such as channel access timing, clock mode, and
75	  DMA channel. This is accomplished with a small utility program,
76	  dmascc_cfg, available at
77	  <http://www.linux-ax25.org/wiki/Ax25-tools>. Please be sure to
78	  get at least version 1.27 of dmascc_cfg, as older versions will not
79	  work with the current driver.

81config SCC
82	tristate "Z8530 SCC driver"
83	depends on ISA && AX25 && ISA_DMA_API
84	help
85	  These cards are used to connect your Linux box to an amateur radio
86	  in order to communicate with other computers. If you want to use
87	  this, read
88	  <file:Documentation/networking/device_drivers/hamradio/z8530drv.rst>
89	  and the AX25-HOWTO, available from
90	  <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. Also make sure to say Y
91	  to "Amateur Radio AX.25 Level 2" support.
92
93	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
94	  will be called scc.
95
96config SCC_DELAY
97	bool "additional delay for PA0HZP OptoSCC compatible boards"
98	depends on SCC
99	help
100	  Say Y here if you experience problems with the SCC driver not
101	  working properly; please read
102	  <file:Documentation/networking/device_drivers/hamradio/z8530drv.rst>
103	  for details.
104
105	  If unsure, say N.
106
107config SCC_TRXECHO
108	bool "support for TRX that feedback the tx signal to rx"
109	depends on SCC
110	help
111	  Some transmitters feed the transmitted signal back to the receive
112	  line.  Say Y here to foil this by explicitly disabling the receiver
113	  during data transmission.
114
115	  If in doubt, say Y.

120	select CRC_CCITT
121	help
122	  This is one of two drivers for Baycom style simple amateur radio
123	  modems that connect to a serial interface. The driver supports the
124	  ser12 design in full-duplex mode. In addition, it allows the
125	  baudrate to be set between 300 and 4800 baud (however not all modems
126	  support all baudrates). This is the preferred driver. The next
127	  driver, "BAYCOM ser12 half-duplex driver for AX.25" is the old
128	  driver and still provided in case this driver does not work with
129	  your serial interface chip. To configure the driver, use the sethdlc
130	  utility available in the standard ax25 utilities package. For
131	  information on the modems, see <http://www.baycom.de/> and
