6 The Intelligent Input/Output (I2O) architecture allows hardware
7 drivers to be split into two parts: an operating system specific
8 module called the OSM and an hardware specific module called the
9 HDM. The OSM can talk to a whole range of HDM's, and ideally the
10 HDM's are not OS dependent. This allows for the same HDM driver to
11 be used under different operating systems if the relevant OSM is in
12 place. In order for this to work, you need to have an I2O interface
13 adapter card in your computer. This card contains a special I/O
14 processor (IOP), thus allowing high speeds since the CPU does not
15 have to deal with I/O.

17 If you say Y here, you will get a choice of interface adapter
18 drivers and OSM's with the following questions.

20 To compile this support as a module, choose M here: the
21 modules will be called i2o_core.
22
23 If unsure, say N.

31 Only say N here if you have a I2O controller from SUN. The SUN
32 firmware doesn't support LCT notification on changes. If this option
33 is enabled on such a controller the driver will hang up in a endless
34 loop. On all other controllers say Y.

42 Say Y for support of raidutils for Adaptec I2O controllers. You also
43 have to say Y to "I2O Configuration support", "I2O SCSI OSM" below

Linus Torvalds1da177e2005-04-16 15:20:36 -070058 Say Y for support of the configuration interface for the I2O adapters.
59 If you have a RAID controller from Adaptec and you want to use the
60 raidutils to manage your RAID array, you have to say Y here.

78 Include support for the I2O Bus Adapter OSM. The Bus Adapter OSM
79 provides access to the busses on the I2O controller. The main purpose
80 is to rescan the bus to find new devices.

Linus Torvalds1da177e2005-04-16 15:20:36 -070089 Include support for the I2O Block OSM. The Block OSM presents disk
90 and other structured block devices to the operating system. If you
91 are using an RAID controller, you could access the array only by
92 the Block OSM driver. But it is possible to access the single disks
93 by the SCSI OSM driver, for example to monitor the disks.

Linus Torvalds1da177e2005-04-16 15:20:36 -0700102 Allows direct SCSI access to SCSI devices on a SCSI or FibreChannel
103 I2O controller. You can use both the SCSI and Block OSM together if
104 you wish. To access a RAID array, you must use the Block OSM driver.
