To compile parallel port support as a module, choose M here:34 the module will be called parport.35 If you have more than one parallel port and want to specify which36 port and IRQ to be used by this driver at module load time, take a37 look at <file:Documentation/admin-guide/parport.rst>.38 39 If unsure, say Y.40 41if PARPORT42 43config PARPORT_PC44 tristate "PC-style hardware"45 depends on ARCH_MIGHT_HAVE_PC_PARPORT || PCI46 depends on HAS_IOPORT47 help48 You should say Y here if you have a PC-style parallel port. All49 IBM PC compatible computers and some Alphas have PC-style50 parallel ports. PA-RISC owners should only say Y here if they51 have a SuperIO parallel port.52 53 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the54 module will be called parport_pc.55 56 If unsure, say Y.57 58config PARPORT_SERIAL59 tristate "Multi-IO cards (parallel and serial)"60 depends on SERIAL_8250_PCI && PARPORT_PC && PCI61 help62 This adds support for multi-IO PCI cards that have parallel and63 serial ports. You should say Y or M here. If you say M, the module64 will be called parport_serial.65 66config PARPORT_PC_FIFO67 bool "Use FIFO/DMA if available"68 depends on PARPORT_PC69 help70 Many parallel port chipsets provide hardware that can speed up71 printing. Say Y here if you want to take advantage of that.72 73 As well as actually having a FIFO, or DMA capability, the kernel74 will need to know which IRQ the parallel port has. By default,75 parallel port interrupts will not be used, and so neither will the76 FIFO. See <file:Documentation/admin-guide/parport.rst> to find out how to77 specify which IRQ/DMA to use.78 79config PARPORT_PC_SUPERIO80 bool "SuperIO chipset support"81 depends on ARCH_MIGHT_HAVE_PC_PARPORT && PARPORT_PC && !PARISC82 help83 Saying Y here enables some probes for Super-IO chipsets in order to84 find out things like base addresses, IRQ lines and DMA channels. It85 is safe to say N.86 87config PARPORT_PC_PCMCIA88 tristate "Support for PCMCIA management for PC-style ports"89 depends on PCMCIA && PARPORT_PC90 help91 Say Y here if you need PCMCIA support for your PC-style parallel92 ports.

This code is also available as a module (say M),101 called parport_ip32. If in doubt, saying N is the safe plan.102 103config PARPORT_AMIGA104 tristate "Amiga builtin port"105 depends on AMIGA106 select PARPORT_NOT_PC107 help108 Say Y here if you need support for the parallel port hardware on109 Amiga machines.

Note that many of the newer Ultras142 actually have pc style hardware instead.143 144config PARPORT_1284145 bool "IEEE 1284 transfer modes"146 help147 If you have a printer that supports status readback or device ID, or148 want to use a device that uses enhanced parallel port transfer modes149 such as EPP and ECP, say Y here to enable advanced IEEE 1284150 transfer modes. Also say Y if you want device ID information to151 appear in /proc/sys/dev/parport/*/autoprobe*. It is safe to say N.152 153config PARPORT_NOT_PC154 bool155 156endif # PARPORT157
