menu "Character devices"
source "drivers/tty/Kconfig"
config DEVMEM
bool "Memory device driver"
default y
help
The memory driver provides two character devices, mem and kmem, which
provide access to the system's memory. The mem device is a view of
physical memory, and each byte in the device corresponds to the
matching physical address. The kmem device is the same as mem, but
the addresses correspond to the kernel's virtual address space rather
than physical memory. These devices are standard parts of a Linux
system and most users should say Y here. You might say N if very
security conscience or memory is tight.
config DEVKMEM
bool "/dev/kmem virtual device support"
default y
help
Say Y here if you want to support the /dev/kmem device. The
/dev/kmem device is rarely used, but can be used for certain
kind of kernel debugging operations.
When in doubt, say "N".
config SGI_SNSC
bool "SGI Altix system controller communication support"
depends on (IA64_SGI_SN2 || IA64_GENERIC)
help
If you have an SGI Altix and you want to enable system
controller communication from user space (you want this!),
say Y. Otherwise, say N.
config SGI_TIOCX
bool "SGI TIO CX driver support"
depends on (IA64_SGI_SN2 || IA64_GENERIC)
help
If you have an SGI Altix and you have fpga devices attached
to your TIO, say Y here, otherwise say N.
config SGI_MBCS
tristate "SGI FPGA Core Services driver support"
depends on SGI_TIOCX
help
If you have an SGI Altix with an attached SABrick
say Y or M here, otherwise say N.
source "drivers/tty/serial/Kconfig"
source "drivers/char/diag/Kconfig"
config TTY_PRINTK
tristate "TTY driver to output user messages via printk"
depends on EXPERT && TTY
default n
---help---
If you say Y here, the support for writing user messages (i.e.
console messages) via printk is available.
The feature is useful to inline user messages with kernel
messages.
In order to use this feature, you should output user messages
to /dev/ttyprintk or redirect console to this TTY.
If unsure, say N.
config BFIN_OTP
tristate "Blackfin On-Chip OTP Memory Support"
depends on BLACKFIN && (BF51x || BF52x || BF54x)
default y
help
If you say Y here, you will get support for a character device
interface into the One Time Programmable memory pages that are
stored on the Blackfin processor. This will not get you access
to the secure memory pages however. You will need to write your
own secure code and reader for that.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
will be called bfin-otp.
If unsure, it is safe to say Y.
config BFIN_OTP_WRITE_ENABLE
bool "Enable writing support of OTP pages"
depends on BFIN_OTP
default n
help
If you say Y here, you will enable support for writing of the
OTP pages. This is dangerous by nature as you can only program
the pages once, so only enable this option when you actually
need it so as to not inadvertently clobber data.
If unsure, say N.
config PRINTER
tristate "Parallel printer support"
depends on PARPORT
---help---
If you intend to attach a printer to the parallel port of your Linux
box (as opposed to using a serial printer; if the connector at the
printer has 9 or 25 holes ["female"], then it's serial), say Y.
Also read the Printing-HOWTO, available from
<http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
It is possible to share one parallel port among several devices
(e.g. printer and ZIP drive) and it is safe to compile the
corresponding drivers into the kernel.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here and read
<file:Documentation/parport.txt>. The module will be called lp.
If you have several parallel ports, you can specify which ports to
use with the "lp" kernel command line option. (Try "man bootparam"
or see the documentation of your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about
how to pass options to the kernel at boot time.) The syntax of the
"lp" command line option can be found in <file:drivers/char/lp.c>.
If you have more than 8 printers, you need to increase the LP_NO
macro in lp.c and the PARPORT_MAX macro in parport.h.
config LP_CONSOLE
bool "Support for console on line printer"
depends on PRINTER
---help---
If you want kernel messages to be printed out as they occur, you
can have a console on the printer. This option adds support for
doing that; to actually get it to happen you need to pass the
option "console=lp0" to the kernel at boot time.
If the printer is out of paper (or off, or unplugged, or too
busy..) the kernel will stall until the printer is ready again.
By defining CONSOLE_LP_STRICT to 0 (at your own risk) you
can make the kernel continue when this happens,
but it'll lose the kernel messages.
If unsure, say N.
config PPDEV
tristate "Support for user-space parallel port device drivers"
depends on PARPORT
---help---
Saying Y to this adds support for /dev/parport device nodes. This
is needed for programs that want portable access to the parallel
port, for instance deviceid (which displays Plug-and-Play device
IDs).
This is the parallel port equivalent of SCSI generic support (sg).
It is safe to say N to this -- it is not needed for normal printing
or parallel port CD-ROM/disk support.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
module will be called ppdev.
If unsure, say N.
source "drivers/tty/hvc/Kconfig"
config VIRTIO_CONSOLE
tristate "Virtio console"
depends on VIRTIO && TTY
select HVC_DRIVER
help
Virtio console for use with lguest and other hypervisors.
Also serves as a general-purpose serial device for data
transfer between the guest and host. Character devices at
/dev/vportNpn will be created when corresponding ports are
found, where N is the device number and n is the port number
within that device. If specified by the host, a sysfs
attribute called 'name' will be populated with a name for
the port which can be used by udev scripts to create a
symlink to the device.
config IBM_BSR
tristate "IBM POWER Barrier Synchronization Register support"
depends on PPC_PSERIES
help
This devices exposes a hardware mechanism for fast synchronization
of threads across a large system which avoids bouncing a cacheline
between several cores on a system
source "drivers/char/ipmi/Kconfig"
config DS1620
tristate "NetWinder thermometer support"
depends on ARCH_NETWINDER
help
Say Y here to include support for the thermal management hardware
found in the NetWinder. This driver allows the user to control the
temperature set points and to read the current temperature.
It is also possible to say M here to build it as a module (ds1620)
It is recommended to be used on a NetWinder, but it is not a
necessity.
config NWBUTTON
tristate "NetWinder Button"
depends on ARCH_NETWINDER
---help---
If you say Y here and create a character device node /dev/nwbutton
with major and minor numbers 10 and 158 ("man mknod"), then every
time the orange button is pressed a number of times, the number of
times the button was pressed will be written to that device.
This is most useful for applications, as yet unwritten, which
perform actions based on how many times the button is pressed in a
row.
Do not hold the button down for too long, as the driver does not
alter the behaviour of the hardware reset circuitry attached to the
button; it will still execute a hard reset if the button is held
down for longer than approximately five seconds.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
module will be called nwbutton.
Most people will answer Y to this question and "Reboot Using Button"
below to be able to initiate a system shutdown from the button.
config NWBUTTON_REBOOT
bool "Reboot Using Button"
depends on NWBUTTON
help
If you say Y here, then you will be able to initiate a system
shutdown and reboot by pressing the orange button a number of times.
The number of presses to initiate the shutdown is two by default,
but this can be altered by modifying the value of NUM_PRESSES_REBOOT
in nwbutton.h and recompiling the driver or, if you compile the
driver as a module, you can specify the number of presses at load
time with "insmod button reboot_count=<something>".
config NWFLASH
tristate "NetWinder flash support"
depends on ARCH_NETWINDER
---help---
If you say Y here and create a character device /dev/flash with
major 10 and minor 160 you can manipulate the flash ROM containing
the NetWinder firmware. Be careful as accidentally overwriting the
flash contents can render your computer unbootable. On no account
allow random users access to this device. :-)
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
module will be called nwflash.
If you're not sure, say N.
source "drivers/char/hw_random/Kconfig"
config NVRAM
tristate "/dev/nvram support"
depends on ATARI || X86 || (ARM && RTC_DRV_CMOS) || GENERIC_NVRAM
---help---
If you say Y here and create a character special file /dev/nvram
with major number 10 and minor number 144 using mknod ("man mknod"),
you get read and write access to the extra bytes of non-volatile
memory in the real time clock (RTC), which is contained in every PC
and most Ataris. The actual number of bytes varies, depending on the
nvram in the system, but is usually 114 (128-14 for the RTC).
This memory is conventionally called "CMOS RAM" on PCs and "NVRAM"
on Ataris. /dev/nvram may be used to view settings there, or to
change them (with some utility). It could also be used to frequently
save a few bits of very important data that may not be lost over
power-off and for which writing to disk is too insecure. Note
however that most NVRAM space in a PC belongs to the BIOS and you
should NEVER idly tamper with it. See Ralf Brown's interrupt list
for a guide to the use of CMOS bytes by your BIOS.
On Atari machines, /dev/nvram is always configured and does not need
to be selected.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
module will be called nvram.

If you say Y here and create a character special file /dev/rtc with
major number 10 and minor number 135 using mknod ("man mknod"), you
will get access to the real time clock (or hardware clock) built
into your computer.
Every PC has such a clock built in. It can be used to generate
signals from as low as 1Hz up to 8192Hz, and can also be used
as a 24 hour alarm. It reports status information via the file
/proc/driver/rtc and its behaviour is set by various ioctls on
/dev/rtc.
If you run Linux on a multiprocessor machine and said Y to
"Symmetric Multi Processing" above, you should say Y here to read
and set the RTC in an SMP compatible fashion.
If you think you have a use for such a device (such as periodic data
sampling), then say Y here, and read <file:Documentation/rtc.txt>
for details.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
module will be called rtc.
