+ tristate "QLogic HTX HCA support"
+ depends on 64BIT && NET && HT_IRQ
+ ---help---
+ This is a driver for the deprecated QLogic Hyper-Transport
+ IB host channel adapter (model QHT7140),
+ including InfiniBand verbs support. This driver allows these
+ devices to be used with both kernel upper level protocols such
+ as IP-over-InfiniBand as well as with userspace applications
+ (in conjunction with InfiniBand userspace access).
+ For QLogic PCIe QLE based cards, use the QIB driver instead.
+
+ If you have this hardware you will need to boot with PAT disabled
+ on your x86-64 systems, use the nopat kernel parameter.
+
+ Note that this driver will soon be removed entirely from the kernel.
