Overview
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).
