| 9 | HIgh Performance Parallel Interface (HIPPI) is a 800Mbit/sec and |
| 10 | 1600Mbit/sec dual-simplex switched or point-to-point network. HIPPI |
| 11 | can run over copper (25m) or fiber (300m on multi-mode or 10km on |
| 12 | single-mode). HIPPI networks are commonly used for clusters and to |
| 13 | connect to super computers. If you are connected to a HIPPI network |
| 14 | and have a HIPPI network card in your computer that you want to use |
| 15 | under Linux, say Y here (you must also remember to enable the driver |
| 16 | for your HIPPI card below). Most people will say N here. |

| 20 | config ROADRUNNER |
| 21 | tristate "Essential RoadRunner HIPPI PCI adapter support (EXPERIMENTAL)" |
| 22 | depends on PCI |
| 23 | ---help--- |
| 24 | Say Y here if this is your PCI HIPPI network card. |
| 25 | |
| 26 | To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module |
| 27 | will be called rrunner. If unsure, say N. |
| 28 | |
| 29 | config ROADRUNNER_LARGE_RINGS |
| 30 | bool "Use large TX/RX rings (EXPERIMENTAL)" |
| 31 | depends on ROADRUNNER |
| 32 | ---help--- |
| 33 | If you say Y here, the RoadRunner driver will preallocate up to 2 MB |
| 34 | of additional memory to allow for fastest operation, both for |
| 35 | transmitting and receiving. This memory cannot be used by any other |
| 36 | kernel code or by user space programs. Say Y here only if you have |
| 37 | the memory. |
