10 Say Y here if you want to build support for the IrTTY line
11 discipline. To compile it as a module, choose M here: the module
12 will be called irtty-sir. IrTTY makes it possible to use Linux's
13 own serial driver for all IrDA ports that are 16550 compatible.
14 Most IrDA chips are 16550 compatible so you should probably say Y
15 to this option. Using IrTTY will however limit the speed of the
16 connection to 115200 bps (IrDA SIR mode).

23 bool "Serial dongle support"
26 Say Y here if you have an infrared device that connects to your
27 computer's serial port. These devices are called dongles. Then say Y
28 or M to the driver for your particular dongle below.
30 Note that the answer to this question won't directly affect the
31 kernel: saying N will just cause the configurator to skip all
32 the questions about serial dongles.

149 DS-620 IrDA-USB bridge device driver.
151 This USB bridge does not conform to the IrDA-USB device class
152 specification, and therefore needs its own specific driver. This

161 tristate "IrPORT (IrDA serial driver)"
162 depends on IRDA && BROKEN_ON_SMP
164 Say Y here if you want to build support for the IrPORT IrDA device
165 driver. To compile it as a module, choose M here: the module will be
166 called irport. IrPORT can be used instead of IrTTY and sometimes
167 this can be better. One example is if your IrDA port does not
168 have echo-canceling, which will work OK with IrPORT since this
169 driver is working in half-duplex mode only. You don't need to use
170 irattach with IrPORT, but you just insert it the same way as FIR
171 drivers (insmod irport io=0x3e8 irq=11). Notice that IrPORT is a
172 SIR device driver which means that speed is limited to 115200 bps.
