Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!

tristate "Zftape, the VFS interface"
|
|
depends on FTAPE
|
|
---help---
|
|
Normally, you want to say Y or M. DON'T say N here or you
|
|
WON'T BE ABLE TO USE YOUR FLOPPY TAPE DRIVE.
|
|
|
|
The ftape module itself no longer contains the routines necessary
|
|
to interface with the kernel VFS layer (i.e. to actually write data
|
|
to and read data from the tape drive). Instead the file system
|
|
interface (i.e. the hardware independent part of the driver) has
|
|
been moved to a separate module.
|
|
|
|
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
|
|
module will be called zftape.
|
|
|
|
Regardless of whether you say Y or M here, an additional runtime
|
|
loadable module called `zft-compressor' which contains code to
|
|
support user transparent on-the-fly compression based on Ross
|
|
William's lzrw3 algorithm will be produced. If you have enabled the
|
|
kernel module loader (i.e. have said Y to "Kernel module loader
|
|
support", above) then `zft-compressor' will be loaded
|
|
automatically by zftape when needed.
|
|
|
|
Despite its name, zftape does NOT use compression by default. The
|
|
file <file:Documentation/ftape.txt> contains a short description of
|
|
the most important changes in the file system interface compared to
|
|
previous versions of ftape. The ftape home page
|
|
<http://www.instmath.rwth-aachen.de/~heine/ftape/> contains
|
|
further information.
|
|
|
|
IMPORTANT NOTE: zftape can read archives created by previous
|
|
versions of ftape and provide file mark support (i.e. fast skipping
|
|
between tape archives) but previous version of ftape will lack file
|
|
mark support when reading archives produced by zftape.

config ZFT_DFLT_BLK_SZ
|
|
int "Default block size"
|

depends on ZFTAPE
|
|
default "10240"
|
|
---help---
|
|
If unsure leave this at its default value, i.e. 10240. Note that
|
|
you specify only the default block size here. The block size can be
|
|
changed at run time using the MTSETBLK tape operation with the
|
|
MTIOCTOP ioctl (i.e. with "mt -f /dev/qft0 setblk #BLKSZ" from the
|
|
shell command line).
|
|
|
|
The probably most striking difference between zftape and previous
|
|
versions of ftape is the fact that all data must be written or read
|
|
in multiples of a fixed block size. The block size defaults to
|
|
10240 which is what GNU tar uses. The values for the block size
|
|
should be either 1 or multiples of 1024 up to a maximum value of
|
|
63488 (i.e. 62 K). If you specify `1' then zftape's builtin
|
|
compression will be disabled.
|
|
|
|
Reasonable values are `10240' (GNU tar's default block size),
|
|
`5120' (afio's default block size), `32768' (default block size some
|
|
backup programs assume for SCSI tape drives) or `1' (no restriction
|
|
on block size, but disables builtin compression).

help
|

Please leave this at `3' unless you REALLY know what you are doing.
|
|
It is not necessary to change this value. Values below 3 make the
|
|
proper use of ftape impossible, values greater than 3 are a waste of
|
|
memory. You can change the amount of DMA memory used by ftape at
|
|
runtime with "mt -f /dev/qft0 setdrvbuffer #NUMBUFFERS". Each buffer
|
|
wastes 32 KB of memory. Please note that this memory cannot be
|
|
swapped out.

Optional. Saying Y will result in creation of a directory
|
|
`/proc/ftape' under the /proc file system. The files can be viewed
|
|
with your favorite pager (i.e. use "more /proc/ftape/history" or
|
|
"less /proc/ftape/history" or simply "cat /proc/ftape/history"). The
|
|
file will contain some status information about the inserted
|
|
cartridge, the kernel driver, your tape drive, the floppy disk
|
|
controller and the error history for the most recent use of the
|
|
kernel driver. Saying Y will enlarge the size of the ftape driver
|
|
by approximately 2 KB.
|
|
|
|
WARNING: When compiling ftape as a module (i.e. saying M to "Floppy
|
|
tape drive") it is dangerous to use ftape's /proc file system
|
|
interface. Accessing `/proc/ftape' while the module is unloaded will
|
|
result in a kernel Oops. This cannot be fixed from inside ftape.

This option controls the amount of debugging output the ftape driver

is ABLE to produce; it does not increase or diminish the debugging
|
|
level itself. If unsure, leave this at its default setting,
|
|
i.e. choose "Normal".
|
|
|
|
Ftape can print lots of debugging messages to the system console
|
|
resp. kernel log files. Reducing the amount of possible debugging
|
|
output reduces the size of the kernel module by some KB, so it might
|
|
be a good idea to use "None" for emergency boot floppies.
|
|
|
|
If you want to save memory then the following strategy is
|
|
recommended: leave this option at its default setting "Normal" until
|
|
you know that the driver works as expected, afterwards reconfigure
|
|
the kernel, this time specifying "Reduced" or "None" and recompile
|
|
and install the kernel as usual. Note that choosing "Excessive"
|
|
debugging output does not increase the amount of debugging output
|
|
printed to the console but only makes it possible to produce
|
|
"Excessive" debugging output.

Only change this setting if you have a special controller. If you
|
|
didn't plug any add-on card into your computer system but just
|
|
plugged the floppy tape cable into the already existing floppy drive
|
|
controller then you don't want to change the default setting,
|
|
i.e. choose "Standard".
|
|
|
|
Choose "MACH-2" if you have a Mountain Mach-2 controller.
|
|
Choose "FC-10/FC-20" if you have a Colorado FC-10 or FC-20
|
|
controller.
|
|
Choose "Alt/82078" if you have another controller that is located at
|
|
an IO base address different from the standard floppy drive
|
|
controller's base address of `0x3f0', or uses an IRQ (interrupt)
|
|
channel different from `6', or a DMA channel different from
|
|
`2'. This is necessary for any controller card that is based on
|
|
Intel's 82078 FDC such as Seagate's, Exabyte's and Iomega's "high
|
|
speed" controllers.
|
|
|
|
If you choose something other than "Standard" then please make
|
|
sure that the settings for the IO base address and the IRQ and DMA
|
|
channel in the configuration menus below are correct. Use the manual
|
|
of your tape drive to determine the correct settings!
|
|
|
|
If you are already successfully using your tape drive with another
|
|
operating system then you definitely should use the same settings
|
|
for the IO base, the IRQ and DMA channel that have proven to work
|
|
with that other OS.
|
|
|
|
Note that this menu lets you specify only the default setting for

the hardware setup. The hardware configuration can be changed at
