IEEE1394IF(4)						   BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual 					     IEEE1394IF(4)

NAME

     ieee1394if -- IEEE1394 High-performance Serial Bus

SYNOPSIS

     ieee1394if* at fwohci?

DESCRIPTION

     NetBSD provides machine-independent bus support and raw drivers for IEEE1394 interfaces.

     The ieee1394if driver consists of two layers: the controller and the bus layer.  The controller attaches to a physical bus (like pci(4)).
     The ieee1394if bus attaches to the controller.  Additional drivers can be attached to the bus.

     Up to 63 devices, including the host itself, can be attached to a IEEE1394 bus.  The root node is dynamically assigned with a PHY device
     function.	Also, the other IEEE1394 bus specific parameters, e.g., node ID, cycle master, isochronous resource manager and bus manager, are
     dynamically assigned, after bus reset is initiated.  On the ieee1394if bus, every device is identified by an EUI 64 address.

FILES

     /dev/fw0.0
     /dev/fwmem0.0

SEE ALSO

     fwip(4), fwohci(4), pci(4), sbp(4), fwctl(8), sysctl(8)

HISTORY

     The ieee1394if driver first appeared in FreeBSD 5.0, as firewire.	It was added to NetBSD 4.0 under its present name.

AUTHORS

     The ieee1394if driver was written by Katsushi Kobayashi and Hidetoshi Shimokawa for the FreeBSD project.  It was added to NetBSD 4.0 by
     KIYOHARA Takashi.

BUGS

     See fwohci(4) for security notes.

FIREWIRE(4)						   BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual 					       FIREWIRE(4)

NAME

     firewire -- IEEE1394 High-performance Serial Bus

SYNOPSIS

     To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following line in your kernel configuration file:

	   device firewire

     Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in loader.conf(5):

	   firewire_load="YES"

DESCRIPTION

     FreeBSD provides machine-independent bus support and raw drivers for firewire interfaces.

     The firewire driver consists of two layers: the controller and the bus layer.  The controller attaches to a physical bus (like pci(4)).  The
     firewire bus attaches to the controller.  Additional drivers can be attached to the bus.

     Up to 63 devices, including the host itself, can be attached to a firewire bus.  The root node is dynamically assigned with a PHY device
     function.	Also, the other firewire bus specific parameters, e.g., node ID, cycle master, isochronous resource manager and bus manager, are
     dynamically assigned, after bus reset is initiated.  On the firewire bus, every device is identified by an EUI 64 address.
