With all the patches we have queued in the BKL removal tree, only a few dozen modules are left that actually rely on the BKL, and even there are lots of low-hanging fruit. We need to decide what to do about them, this patch illustrates one of the options: Every user of the BKL is marked as 'depends on BKL' in Kconfig, and the CONFIG_BKL becomes a user-visible option. If it gets disabled, no BKL using module can be built any more and the BKL code itself is compiled out. The one exception is file locking, which is practically always enabled and does a 'select BKL' instead. This effectively forces CONFIG_BKL to be enabled until we have solved the fs/lockd mess and can apply the patch that removes the BKL from fs/locks.c. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

AppleTalk is the protocol that Apple computers can use to communicate
|
|
on a network. If your Linux box is connected to such a network and you
|
|
wish to connect to it, say Y. You will need to use the netatalk package
|
|
so that your Linux box can act as a print and file server for Macs as
|
|
well as access AppleTalk printers. Check out
|
|
<http://www.zettabyte.net/netatalk/> on the WWW for details.
|
|
EtherTalk is the name used for AppleTalk over Ethernet and the
|
|
cheaper and slower LocalTalk is AppleTalk over a proprietary Apple
|
|
network using serial links. EtherTalk and LocalTalk are fully
|
|
supported by Linux.
|
|
|
|
General information about how to connect Linux, Windows machines and
|
|
Macs is on the WWW at <http://www.eats.com/linux_mac_win.html>. The
|
|
NET-3-HOWTO, available from
|
|
<http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>, contains valuable
|
|
information as well.

To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be
|
|
called appletalk. You almost certainly want to compile it as a
|
|
module so you can restart your AppleTalk stack without rebooting
|
|
your machine. I hear that the GNU boycott of Apple is over, so
|
|
even politically correct people are allowed to say Y here.

AppleTalk is the protocol that Apple computers can use to communicate

This allows you to use the AppleTalk PC card to connect to LocalTalk
|
|
networks. The card is also known as the Farallon PhoneNet PC card.
|
|
If you are in doubt, this card is the one with the 65C02 chip on it.

You also need version 1.3.3 or later of the netatalk package.

This driver is experimental, which means that it may not work.

This allows IP networking for users who only have AppleTalk
|
|
networking available. This feature is experimental. With this
|
|
driver, you can encapsulate IP inside AppleTalk (e.g. if your Linux
|
|
box is stuck on an AppleTalk only network) or decapsulate (e.g. if
|
|
you want your Linux box to act as an Internet gateway for a zoo of
|
|
AppleTalk connected Macs). Please see the file
|
|
<file:Documentation/networking/ipddp.txt> for more information.
|
|
|
|
If you say Y here, the AppleTalk-IP support will be compiled into
|
|
the kernel. In this case, you can either use encapsulation or
|
|
decapsulation, but not both. With the following two questions, you
|
|
decide which one you want.
|
|
|
|
To compile the AppleTalk-IP support as a module, choose M here: the
|
|
module will be called ipddp.
|
|
In this case, you will be able to use both encapsulation and
|
|
decapsulation simultaneously, by loading two copies of the module
|
|
and specifying different values for the module option ipddp_mode.
