comment "Intel MIC Bus Driver"
config INTEL_MIC_BUS
tristate "Intel MIC Bus Driver"
depends on 64BIT && PCI && X86 && X86_DEV_DMA_OPS
help
This option is selected by any driver which registers a
device or driver on the MIC Bus, such as CONFIG_INTEL_MIC_HOST,
CONFIG_INTEL_MIC_CARD, CONFIG_INTEL_MIC_X100_DMA etc.
If you are building a host/card kernel with an Intel MIC device
then say M (recommended) or Y, else say N. If unsure say N.
More information about the Intel MIC family as well as the Linux
OS and tools for MIC to use with this driver are available from

Intel MIC Host Driver Changes for Virtio Devices. This patch introduces the host "Virtio over PCIe" interface for Intel MIC. It allows creating user space backends on the host and instantiating virtio devices for them on the Intel MIC card. It uses the existing VRINGH infrastructure in the kernel to access virtio rings from the host. A character device per MIC is exposed with IOCTL, mmap and poll callbacks. This allows the user space backend to: (a) add/remove a virtio device via a device page. (b) map (R/O) virtio rings and device page to user space. (c) poll for availability of data. (d) copy a descriptor or entire descriptor chain to/from the card. (e) modify virtio configuration. (f) handle virtio device reset. The buffers are copied over using CPU copies for this initial patch and host initiated MIC DMA support is planned for future patches. The avail and desc virtio rings are in host memory and the used ring is in card memory to maximize writes across PCIe for performance.

select VHOST_RING
help
This enables Host Driver support for the Intel Many Integrated
Core (MIC) family of PCIe form factor coprocessor devices that
run a 64 bit Linux OS. The driver manages card OS state and
enables communication between host and card. Intel MIC X100
devices are currently supported.
If you are building a host kernel with an Intel MIC device then
say M (recommended) or Y, else say N. If unsure say N.

select VIRTIO
help
This enables card driver support for the Intel Many Integrated
Core (MIC) device family. The card driver communicates shutdown/
crash events to the host and allows registration/configuration of
virtio devices. Intel MIC X100 devices are currently supported.
If you are building a card kernel for an Intel MIC device then
say M (recommended) or Y, else say N. If unsure say N.
