Firewire (IEEE 1394) driver Interface Guide

Introduction and Overview
|
|
=========================
|
|
|
|
The Linux FireWire subsystem adds some interfaces into the Linux system to
|
|
use/maintain+any resource on IEEE 1394 bus.
|
|
|
|
The main purpose of these interfaces is to access address space on each node
|
|
on IEEE 1394 bus by ISO/IEC 13213 (IEEE 1212) procedure, and to control
|
|
isochronous resources on the bus by IEEE 1394 procedure.
|
|
|
|
Two types of interfaces are added, according to consumers of the interface. A
|
|
set of userspace interfaces is available via `firewire character devices`. A set
|
|
of kernel interfaces is available via exported symbols in `firewire-core` module.
