DESCRIPTION
baycomusb
is a user mode driver for the Baycom EPP modem family. It currently
supports the conventional EPP modem (using the IDT 72xxx FIFO's)
and the FPGA (Xilinx XCS10) variant. The driver automatically
initializes the FPGA modem depending on the requested mode.
In order to keep the resident memory footprint small (approx
20kBytes plus standard system shared libraries like libc),
the initialization code is contained in a shared library called
baycomfpga_init.so.
This driver is able to automatically attach itself to the
kernel network stack as a network interface (usually called
ax0). To do this it requires the Linux Kernel MKISS driver
(enable CONFIG_MKISS).
