··· 6 6 tristate "Unisys visorbus driver" 7 7 depends on UNISYSSPAR 8 8 ---help--- 9 - If you say Y here, you will enable the Unisys visorbus driver. 9 + The visorbus driver is a virtualized bus for the Unisys s-Par firmware. 10 + Virtualized devices allow Linux guests on a system to share disks and 11 + network cards that do not have SR-IOV support, and to be accessed using 12 + the partition desktop application. The visorbus driver is required to 13 + discover devices on an s-Par guest, and must be present for any other 14 + s-Par guest driver to function correctly.

··· 6 6 tristate "Unisys visorinput driver" 7 7 depends on UNISYSSPAR && UNISYS_VISORBUS && FB 8 8 ---help--- 9 - If you say Y here, you will enable the Unisys visorinput driver. 9 + The Unisys s-Par visorinput driver provides a virtualized system 10 + console (keyboard and mouse) that is accessible through the 11 + s-Par firmware's user interface. s-Par provides video using the EFI 12 + GOP protocol, so If this driver is not present, the Linux guest should 13 + still boot with visible output in the partition desktop, but keyboard 14 + and mouse interaction will not be available. 10 15
