+config CAN_SOFTING
+ tristate "Softing Gmbh CAN generic support"
+ depends on CAN_DEV && HAS_IOMEM
+ ---help---
+ Support for CAN cards from Softing Gmbh & some cards
+ from Vector Gmbh.
+ Softing Gmbh CAN cards come with 1 or 2 physical busses.
+ Those cards typically use Dual Port RAM to communicate
+ with the host CPU. The interface is then identical for PCI
+ and PCMCIA cards. This driver operates on a platform device,
+ which has been created by softing_cs or softing_pci driver.
+ Warning:
+ The API of the card does not allow fine control per bus, but
+ controls the 2 busses on the card together.
+ As such, some actions (start/stop/busoff recovery) on 1 bus
+ must bring down the other bus too temporarily.

+ ---help---
+ Support for PCMCIA cards from Softing Gmbh & some cards
+ from Vector Gmbh.
+ You need firmware for these, which you can get at
+ http://developer.berlios.de/projects/socketcan/
+ This version of the driver is written against
+ firmware version 4.6 (softing-fw-4.6-binaries.tar.gz)
+ In order to use the card as CAN device, you need the Softing generic
+ support too.
