+The ohci1394 driver in drivers/ieee1394 initializes the OHCI-1394 controllers
+to a working state and enables physical DMA by default for all remote nodes.
+This can be turned off by ohci1394's module parameter phys_dma=0.
+
+The alternative firewire-ohci driver in drivers/firewire uses filtered physical
+DMA, hence is not yet suitable for remote debugging.

+Because ohci1394 depends on the PCI enumeration to be completed, an

 which makes the printk buffer appear on the console can be called) was written.
