FWOHCI(4)		     Kernel Interfaces Manual		       FWOHCI(4)

NAME
     fwohci -- OHCI FireWire chipset device driver

SYNOPSIS
     To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following line in your
     kernel configuration file:

	   device firewire

     Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the
     following line in loader.conf(5):

	   firewire_load="YES"

     To disable physical access (see "BUGS" section for detail), put the
     following line in loader.conf(5):

	   hw.firewire.phydma_enable=0

HISTORY
     The fwohci device driver first appeared in FreeBSD 5.0.

AUTHORS
     The fwohci device driver was written by Katsushi  Kobayashi  and  Hidetoshi
     Shimokawa.

BUGS
     The  driver  allows  physical  access from any nodes on the bus by default.
     This means that any devices on the bus can read and modify any memory space
     which can be accessed by an IEEE 1394 OHCI chip.  It is allowed mostly  for
     sbp(4)  devices.	This should be changed to allow it only for specific de-
     vices.  Anyway, FireWire is a bus and not expected to be connected with un-
     trustable devices because a node can monitor all the traffic.
