tristate "ATA/ATAPI/MFM/RLL support"
depends on BLOCK
depends on HAS_IOMEM
---help---
If you say Y here, your kernel will be able to manage low cost mass
storage units such as ATA/(E)IDE and ATAPI units. The most common
cases are IDE hard drives and ATAPI CD-ROM drives.
If your system is pure SCSI and doesn't use these interfaces, you
can say N here.
Integrated Disk Electronics (IDE aka ATA-1) is a connecting standard
for mass storage units such as hard disks. It was designed by
Western Digital and Compaq Computer in 1984. It was then named
ST506. Quite a number of disks use the IDE interface.
AT Attachment (ATA) is the superset of the IDE specifications.
ST506 was also called ATA-1.
Fast-IDE is ATA-2 (also named Fast ATA), Enhanced IDE (EIDE) is
ATA-3. It provides support for larger disks (up to 8.4GB by means of
the LBA standard), more disks (4 instead of 2) and for other mass
storage units such as tapes and cdrom. UDMA/33 (aka UltraDMA/33) is
ATA-4 and provides faster (and more CPU friendly) transfer modes
than previous PIO (Programmed processor Input/Output) from previous
ATA/IDE standards by means of fast DMA controllers.
ATA Packet Interface (ATAPI) is a protocol used by EIDE tape and
CD-ROM drives, similar in many respects to the SCSI protocol.
SMART IDE (Self Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology) was
designed in order to prevent data corruption and disk crash by
detecting pre hardware failure conditions (heat, access time, and
the like...). Disks built since June 1995 may follow this standard.
The kernel itself doesn't manage this; however there are quite a
number of user programs such as smart that can query the status of
SMART parameters from disk drives.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
module will be called ide.
For further information, please read <file:Documentation/ide.txt>.
If unsure, say Y.
if IDE
config IDE_MAX_HWIFS
int "Max IDE interfaces"
depends on ALPHA || SUPERH || IA64 || EMBEDDED
range 1 10
default 4
help
This is the maximum number of IDE hardware interfaces that will
be supported by the driver. Make sure it is at least as high as
the number of IDE interfaces in your system.
config BLK_DEV_IDE
tristate "Enhanced IDE/MFM/RLL disk/cdrom/tape/floppy support"
---help---
If you say Y here, you will use the full-featured IDE driver to
control up to ten ATA/IDE interfaces, each being able to serve a
"master" and a "slave" device, for a total of up to twenty ATA/IDE
disk/cdrom/tape/floppy drives.
Useful information about large (>540 MB) IDE disks, multiple
interfaces, what to do if ATA/IDE devices are not automatically
detected, sound card ATA/IDE ports, module support, and other
topics, is contained in <file:Documentation/ide.txt>. For detailed
information about hard drives, consult the Disk-HOWTO and the
Multi-Disk-HOWTO, available from
<http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
To fine-tune ATA/IDE drive/interface parameters for improved
performance, look for the hdparm package at
<ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/hardware/>.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here and read
<file:Documentation/ide.txt>. The module will be called ide-mod.
Do not compile this driver as a module if your root file system (the
one containing the directory /) is located on an IDE device.
If you have one or more IDE drives, say Y or M here. If your system
has no IDE drives, or if memory requirements are really tight, you
could say N here, and select the "Old hard disk driver" below
instead to save about 13 KB of memory in the kernel.

comment "Please see Documentation/ide.txt for help/info on IDE drives"
config BLK_DEV_IDE_SATA
bool "Support for SATA (deprecated; conflicts with libata SATA driver)"
default n
---help---
There are two drivers for Serial ATA controllers.
The main driver, "libata", uses the SCSI subsystem
and supports most modern SATA controllers. In order to use it
you may take a look at "Serial ATA (prod) and Parallel ATA
(experimental) drivers".
The IDE driver (which you are currently configuring) supports
a few first-generation SATA controllers.
In order to eliminate conflicts between the two subsystems,
this config option enables the IDE driver's SATA support.
Normally this is disabled, as it is preferred that libata
supports SATA controllers, and this (IDE) driver supports
PATA controllers.
If unsure, say N.
config BLK_DEV_HD_IDE
bool "Use old disk-only driver on primary interface"
depends on (X86 || SH_MPC1211)
---help---
There are two drivers for MFM/RLL/IDE disks. Most people use just
the new enhanced driver by itself. This option however installs the
old hard disk driver to control the primary IDE/disk interface in
the system, leaving the new enhanced IDE driver to take care of only
the 2nd/3rd/4th IDE interfaces. Doing this will prevent you from
having an IDE/ATAPI CD-ROM or tape drive connected to the primary
IDE interface. Choosing this option may be useful for older systems
which have MFM/RLL/ESDI controller+drives at the primary port
address (0x1f0), along with IDE drives at the secondary/3rd/4th port
addresses.
Normally, just say N here; you will then use the new driver for all
4 interfaces.
config BLK_DEV_IDEDISK

If you have a CD-ROM drive using the ATAPI protocol, say Y. ATAPI is
a newer protocol used by IDE CD-ROM and TAPE drives, similar to the
SCSI protocol. Most new CD-ROM drives use ATAPI, including the
NEC-260, Mitsumi FX400, Sony 55E, and just about all non-SCSI
double(2X) or better speed drives.
If you say Y here, the CD-ROM drive will be identified at boot time
along with other IDE devices, as "hdb" or "hdc", or something
similar (check the boot messages with dmesg). If this is your only
CD-ROM drive, you can say N to all other CD-ROM options, but be sure
to say Y or M to "ISO 9660 CD-ROM file system support".
Note that older versions of LILO (LInux LOader) cannot properly deal

If you have an IDE tape drive using the ATAPI protocol, say Y.
ATAPI is a newer protocol used by IDE tape and CD-ROM drives,
similar to the SCSI protocol. If you have an SCSI tape drive
however, you can say N here.
You should also say Y if you have an OnStream DI-30 tape drive; this

config BLK_DEV_IDESCSI
tristate "SCSI emulation support"
depends on SCSI
---help---
WARNING: ide-scsi is no longer needed for cd writing applications!
The 2.6 kernel supports direct writing to ide-cd, which eliminates
the need for ide-scsi + the entire scsi stack just for writing a
cd. The new method is more efficient in every way.
This will provide SCSI host adapter emulation for IDE ATAPI devices,
and will allow you to use a SCSI device driver instead of a native
ATAPI driver.
This is useful if you have an ATAPI device for which no native
driver has been written (for example, an ATAPI PD-CD drive);
you can then use this emulation together with an appropriate SCSI
device driver. In order to do this, say Y here and to "SCSI support"
and "SCSI generic support", below. You must then provide the kernel
command line "hdx=ide-scsi" (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) for devices if you want the
native EIDE sub-drivers to skip over the native support, so that
this SCSI emulation can be used instead.
Note that this option does NOT allow you to attach SCSI devices to a
box that doesn't have a SCSI host adapter installed.
If both this SCSI emulation and native ATAPI support are compiled
into the kernel, the native support will be used.

The CMD-Technologies CMD640 IDE chip is used on many common 486 and

"SiS" chipset. Unfortunately, it has a number of rather nasty
design flaws that can cause severe data corruption under many common
conditions. Say Y here to include code which tries to automatically
detect and correct the problems under Linux. This option also
enables access to the secondary IDE ports in some CMD640 based

This driver will work automatically in PCI based systems (most new

(VLB) instead of PCI, you must also supply a kernel boot parameter
to enable the CMD640 bugfix/support: "ide0=cmd640_vlb". (Try "man
bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot loader about how to
pass options to the kernel.)

Normally, IDE controllers built into the motherboard (on-board

cards (off-board controllers) are relegated to ide2 and ide3.
Answering Y here will allow you to reverse the situation, with
off-board controllers on ide0/1 and on-board controllers on ide2/3.
This can improve the usability of some boot managers such as lilo
when booting from a drive on an off-board controller.
If you say Y here, and you actually want to reverse the device scan
order as explained above, you also need to issue the kernel command
line option "ide=reverse". (Try "man bootparam" or see the
documentation of your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to

both the `A1200 style' and `A4000 style' of the Gayle IDE interface,
This includes builtin IDE interfaces on some Amiga models (A600,
A1200, A4000, and A4000T), and IDE interfaces on the Zorro expansion
bus (M-Tech E-Matrix 530 expansion card).
Say Y if you have an Amiga with a Gayle IDE interface and want to use
IDE devices (hard disks, CD-ROM drives, etc.) that are connected to
it.
Note that you also have to enable Zorro bus support if you want to
use Gayle IDE interfaces on the Zorro expansion bus.
config BLK_DEV_IDEDOUBLER
bool "Amiga IDE Doubler support (EXPERIMENTAL)"
depends on BLK_DEV_GAYLE && EXPERIMENTAL
---help---
This driver provides support for the so-called `IDE doublers' (made
by various manufacturers, e.g. Eyetech) that can be connected to the
builtin IDE interface of some Amiga models. Using such an IDE
doubler, you can connect up to four instead of two IDE devices on
the Amiga's builtin IDE interface.
Note that the normal Amiga Gayle IDE driver may not work correctly
if you have an IDE doubler and don't enable this driver!
Say Y if you have an IDE doubler. The driver is enabled at kernel
runtime using the "ide=doubler" kernel boot parameter.

select IDE_GENERIC
help
This is the IDE driver for the IDE interfaces on the Buddha,
Catweasel and X-Surf expansion boards. It supports up to two interfaces
on the Buddha, three on the Catweasel and two on the X-Surf.
Say Y if you have a Buddha or Catweasel expansion board and want to
use IDE devices (hard disks, CD-ROM drives, etc.) that are connected
to one of its IDE interfaces.

This is the IDE driver for the builtin IDE interface on the Atari
Falcon. Say Y if you have a Falcon and want to use IDE devices (hard
disks, CD-ROM drives, etc.) that are connected to the builtin IDE
interface.
config BLK_DEV_MAC_IDE
bool "Macintosh Quadra/Powerbook IDE interface support"
depends on MAC
select IDE_GENERIC
help
This is the IDE driver for the builtin IDE interface on some m68k
Macintosh models. It supports both the `Quadra style' (used in
Quadra/ Centris 630 and Performa 588 models) and `Powerbook style'
(used in the Powerbook 150 and 190 models) IDE interface.
Say Y if you have such an Macintosh model and want to use IDE
devices (hard disks, CD-ROM drives, etc.) that are connected to the
builtin IDE interface.

Enable the on-board IDE controller in the Q40/Q60. This should
normally be on; disable it only if you are running a custom hard
drive subsystem through an expansion card.

---help---
Select how the IDE devices are connected to the MPC8xx system:
8xx_PCCARD uses the 8xx internal PCMCIA interface in combination
with a PC Card (e.g. ARGOSY portable Hard Disk Adapter),
ATA PC Card HDDs or ATA PC Flash Cards (example: TQM8xxL
systems)
8xx_DIRECT is used for directly connected IDE devices using the 8xx
internal PCMCIA interface (example: IVMS8 systems)
EXT_DIRECT is used for IDE devices directly connected to the 8xx
bus using some glue logic, but _not_ the 8xx internal
PCMCIA interface (example: IDIF860 systems)

bool "Other IDE chipset support"
depends on ISA
---help---
Say Y here if you want to include enhanced support for various IDE
interface chipsets used on motherboards and add-on cards. You can
then pick your particular IDE chip from among the following options.
This enhanced support may be necessary for Linux to be able to
access the 3rd/4th drives in some systems. It may also enable
setting of higher speed I/O rates to improve system performance with
these chipsets. Most of these also require special kernel boot
parameters to actually turn on the support at runtime; you can find
a list of these in the file <file:Documentation/ide.txt>.
People with SCSI-only systems can say N here.

config BLK_DEV_4DRIVES
bool "Generic 4 drives/port support"
help
Certain older chipsets, including the Tekram 690CD, use a single set
of I/O ports at 0x1f0 to control up to four drives, instead of the
customary two drives per port. Support for this can be enabled at
runtime using the "ide0=four" kernel boot parameter if you say Y
here.

There are unclear terms in ATA-4 and ATA-5 standards how certain
hardware (an 80c ribbon) should be detected. Different interpretations
of the standards have been released in hardware. This causes problems:
for example, a host with Ultra Mode 4 (or higher) will not run
in that mode with an 80c ribbon.
If you are experiencing compatibility or performance problems, you
MAY try to answer Y here. However, it does not necessarily solve
any of your problems, it could even cause more of them.
It is normally safe to answer Y; however, the default is N.

config BLK_DEV_HD_ONLY
bool "Old hard disk (MFM/RLL/IDE) driver"
depends on BLK_DEV_IDE=n
help
There are two drivers for MFM/RLL/IDE hard disks. Most people use
the newer enhanced driver, but this old one is still around for two
reasons. Some older systems have strange timing problems and seem to
work only with the old driver (which itself does not work with some
newer systems). The other reason is that the old driver is smaller,
since it lacks the enhanced functionality of the new one. This makes
it a good choice for systems with very tight memory restrictions, or
for systems with only older MFM/RLL/ESDI drives. Choosing the old
driver can save 13 KB or so of kernel memory.
If you are unsure, then just choose the Enhanced IDE/MFM/RLL driver
instead of this one. For more detailed information, read the
Disk-HOWTO, available from
<http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
