 config ZFTAPE
 	tristate "Zftape, the VFS interface"
 	depends on FTAPE
 	---help---
 	  Normally, you want to say Y or M. DON'T say N here or you
 	  WON'T BE ABLE TO USE YOUR FLOPPY TAPE DRIVE.

 	  The ftape module itself no longer contains the routines necessary
 	  to interface with the kernel VFS layer (i.e. to actually write data
 	  to and read data from the tape drive).  Instead the file system
 	  interface (i.e. the hardware independent part of the driver) has
 	  been moved to a separate module.

 	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
 	  module will be called zftape.

 	  Regardless of whether you say Y or M here, an additional runtime
 	  loadable module called `zft-compressor' which contains code to
 	  support user transparent on-the-fly compression based on Ross
 	  William's lzrw3 algorithm will be produced.  If you have enabled the
 	  kernel module loader (i.e. have said Y to "Kernel module loader
 	  support", above) then `zft-compressor' will be loaded
 	  automatically by zftape when needed.

 	  Despite its name, zftape does NOT use compression by default.  The
 	  file <file:Documentation/ftape.txt> contains a short description of
 	  the most important changes in the file system interface compared to
 	  previous versions of ftape.  The ftape home page
 	  <http://www.instmath.rwth-aachen.de/~heine/ftape/> contains
 	  further information.

 	  IMPORTANT NOTE: zftape can read archives created by previous
 	  versions of ftape and provide file mark support (i.e. fast skipping
 	  between tape archives) but previous version of ftape will lack file
 	  mark support when reading archives produced by zftape.

 config ZFT_DFLT_BLK_SZ
 	int "Default block size"
 	depends on ZFTAPE
 	default "10240"
 	---help---
 	  If unsure leave this at its default value, i.e. 10240. Note that
 	  you specify only the default block size here. The block size can be
 	  changed at run time using the MTSETBLK tape operation with the
 	  MTIOCTOP ioctl (i.e. with "mt -f /dev/qft0 setblk #BLKSZ" from the
 	  shell command line).

 	  The probably most striking difference between zftape and previous
 	  versions of ftape is the fact that all data must be written or read
 	  in multiples of a fixed block size. The block size defaults to
 	  10240 which is what GNU tar uses. The values for the block size
 	  should be either 1 or multiples of 1024 up to a maximum value of
 	  63488 (i.e. 62 K). If you specify `1' then zftape's builtin
 	  compression will be disabled.

 	  Reasonable values are `10240' (GNU tar's default block size),
 	  `5120' (afio's default block size), `32768' (default block size some
 	  backup programs assume for SCSI tape drives) or `1' (no restriction
 	  on block size, but disables builtin compression).

 	help
 	  Please leave this at `3' unless you REALLY know what you are doing.
 	  It is not necessary to change this value. Values below 3 make the
 	  proper use of ftape impossible, values greater than 3 are a waste of
 	  memory. You can change the amount of DMA memory used by ftape at
 	  runtime with "mt -f /dev/qft0 setdrvbuffer #NUMBUFFERS". Each buffer
 	  wastes 32 KB of memory. Please note that this memory cannot be
 	  swapped out.

 config FT_PROC_FS
 	bool "Enable procfs status report (+2kb)"
 	depends on FTAPE && PROC_FS
 	---help---
 	  Optional. Saying Y will result in creation of a directory
 	  `/proc/ftape' under the /proc file system. The files can be viewed
 	  with your favorite pager (i.e. use "more /proc/ftape/history" or
 	  "less /proc/ftape/history" or simply "cat /proc/ftape/history"). The
 	  file will contain some status information about the inserted
 	  cartridge, the kernel driver, your tape drive, the floppy disk
 	  controller and the error history for the most recent use of the
 	  kernel driver. Saying Y will enlarge the size of the ftape driver
 	  by approximately 2 KB.

 	  WARNING: When compiling ftape as a module (i.e. saying M to "Floppy
 	  tape drive") it is dangerous to use ftape's /proc file system
 	  interface. Accessing `/proc/ftape' while the module is unloaded will
 	  result in a kernel Oops. This cannot be fixed from inside ftape.

 	prompt "Debugging output"
 	depends on FTAPE

 config FT_NORMAL_DEBUG
 	bool "Normal"
 	---help---
 	  This option controls the amount of debugging output the ftape driver
 	  is ABLE to produce; it does not increase or diminish the debugging
 	  level itself. If unsure, leave this at its default setting,
 	  i.e. choose "Normal".

 	  Ftape can print lots of debugging messages to the system console
 	  resp. kernel log files. Reducing the amount of possible debugging
 	  output reduces the size of the kernel module by some KB, so it might
 	  be a good idea to use "None" for emergency boot floppies.

 	  If you want to save memory then the following strategy is
 	  recommended: leave this option at its default setting "Normal" until
 	  you know that the driver works as expected, afterwards reconfigure
 	  the kernel, this time specifying "Reduced" or "None" and recompile
 	  and install the kernel as usual. Note that choosing "Excessive"
 	  debugging output does not increase the amount of debugging output
 	  printed to the console but only makes it possible to produce
 	  "Excessive" debugging output.

 	  Please read <file:Documentation/ftape.txt> for a short description
 	  how to control the amount of debugging output.

 	  Only change this setting if you have a special controller. If you
 	  didn't plug any add-on card into your computer system but just
 	  plugged the floppy tape cable into the already existing floppy drive
 	  controller then you don't want to change the default setting,
 	  i.e. choose "Standard".

 	  Choose "MACH-2" if you have a Mountain Mach-2 controller.
 	  Choose "FC-10/FC-20" if you have a Colorado FC-10 or FC-20
 	  controller.
 	  Choose "Alt/82078" if you have another controller that is located at
 	  an IO base address different from the standard floppy drive
 	  controller's base address of `0x3f0', or uses an IRQ (interrupt)
 	  channel different from `6', or a DMA channel different from
 	  `2'. This is necessary for any controller card that is based on
 	  Intel's 82078 FDC such as Seagate's, Exabyte's and Iomega's "high
 	  speed" controllers.

 	  If you choose something other than "Standard" then please make
 	  sure that the settings for the IO base address and the IRQ and DMA
 	  channel in the configuration menus below are correct. Use the manual
 	  of your tape drive to determine the correct settings!

 	  If you are already successfully using your tape drive with another
 	  operating system then you definitely should use the same settings
 	  for the IO base, the IRQ and DMA channel that have proven to work
 	  with that other OS.

 	  Note that this menu lets you specify only the default setting for

 	  Set the FIFO threshold of the FDC. If this is higher the DMA
 	  controller may serve the FDC after a higher latency time. If this is
 	  lower, fewer DMA transfers occur leading to less bus contention.
 	  You may try to tune this if ftape annoys you with "reduced data
 	  rate because of excessive overrun errors" messages. However, this
 	  doesn't seem to have too much effect.

	Note that this menu lets you specify only the default setting for
	the DMA channel. The hardware configuration can be changed at boot
	time (when ftape is compiled into the kernel, i.e. if you said Y to
	"Floppy tape drive") or module load time (i.e. if you said M to
	"Floppy tape drive").

	Please read also the file <file:Documentation/ftape.txt> which
	contains a short description of the parameters that can be set at
	boot or load time.

	config FT_FDC_THR
	int "Default FIFO threshold (EXPERIMENTAL)"
	depends on FTAPE && EXPERIMENTAL
	default "8"
	help
	Set the FIFO threshold of the FDC. If this is higher the DMA
	controller may serve the FDC after a higher latency time. If this is
	lower, fewer DMA transfers occur leading to less bus contention.
	You may try to tune this if ftape annoys you with "reduced data
	rate because of excessive overrun errors" messages. However, this
	doesn't seem to have too much effect.

	If unsure, don't touch the initial value, i.e. leave it at "8".

	config FT_FDC_MAX_RATE
	int "Maximal data rate to use (EXPERIMENTAL)"
	depends on FTAPE && EXPERIMENTAL
	default "2000"
	---help---
	With some motherboard/FDC combinations ftape will not be able to
	run your FDC/tape drive combination at the highest available
	speed. If this is the case you'll encounter "reduced data rate
	because of excessive overrun errors" messages and lots of retries
	before ftape finally decides to reduce the data rate.

	In this case it might be desirable to tell ftape beforehand that
	it need not try to run the tape drive at the highest available
	speed. If unsure, leave this disabled, i.e. leave it at 2000
	bits/sec.

	config FT_ALPHA_CLOCK
	int "CPU clock frequency of your DEC Alpha" if ALPHA
	depends on FTAPE
	default "0"
	help
	On some DEC Alpha machines the CPU clock frequency cannot be
	determined automatically, so you need to specify it here ONLY if
	running a DEC Alpha, otherwise this setting has no effect.
