CONFIG_HIPPI: HIPPI driver support

General informations

The Linux kernel configuration item CONFIG_HIPPI has multiple definitions:

HIPPI driver support found in drivers/net/hippi/Kconfig

The configuration item CONFIG_HIPPI:

• prompt: HIPPI driver support
• type: bool
• depends on: CONFIG_INET && CONFIG_PCI
• defined in drivers/net/hippi/Kconfig
• found in Linux kernels: 3.9–3.19, 4.0–4.20, 5.0–5.19, 6.0–6.13, 6.14-rc+HEAD

HIgh Performance Parallel Interface (HIPPI) is a 800Mbit/sec and 1600Mbit/sec dual-simplex switched or point-to-point network. HIPPI can run over copper (25m) or fiber (300m on multi-mode or 10km on single-mode). HIPPI networks are commonly used for clusters and to connect to super computers. If you are connected to a HIPPI network and have a HIPPI network card in your computer that you want to use under Linux, say Y here (you must also remember to enable the driver for your HIPPI card below). Most people will say N here.

HIPPI driver support (EXPERIMENTAL) found in drivers/net/hippi/Kconfig

The configuration item CONFIG_HIPPI:

• prompt: HIPPI driver support (EXPERIMENTAL)
• type: bool
• depends on: CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL && CONFIG_INET && CONFIG_PCI
• defined in drivers/net/hippi/Kconfig
• found in Linux kernels: 3.2–3.8
