| 33 | Include both, Direct Memory Access (DMA) and Programmed I/O (PIO) |
| 34 | data transfer modes. |
| 35 | The actually used mode is selectable through the module |
| 36 | parameter "pio". If the module parameter is pio=0, DMA is used. |
| 37 | Otherwise PIO is used. DMA is default. |

| 56 | Also note that not all devices of the 43xx series support PIO. |
| 57 | The 4306 (Apple Airport Extreme and others) supports PIO, while |
| 58 | the 4318 is known to _not_ support PIO. |

Michael Buesch | 77db31e | 2006-02-12 16:47:44 +0100 | [diff] [blame] | 60 | Only use PIO, if DMA does not work for you. |
