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.

NAME

     fwohci -- OHCI FireWire chipset device driver

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"

     To disable physical access (see BUGS section for detail), put the following line in loader.conf(5):

	   hw.firewire.phydma_enable=0

HISTORY

     The fwohci device driver first appeared in FreeBSD 5.0.

AUTHORS

     The fwohci device driver was written by Katsushi Kobayashi and Hidetoshi Shimokawa.

BUGS

     The driver allows physical access from any nodes on the bus by default.  This means that any devices on the bus can read and modify any mem-
     ory space which can be accessed by an IEEE 1394 OHCI chip.  It is allowed mostly for sbp(4) devices.  This should be changed to allow it only
     for specific devices.  Anyway, FireWire is a bus and not expected to be connected with un-trustable devices because a node can monitor all
     the traffic.
