In linux kernel since version 2.6.12
KISS is a protocol used for the exchange of data between a computer
and a Terminal Node Controller (a small embedded system commonly
used for networking over AX.25 amateur radio connections; it
connects the computer's serial port with the radio's microphone
input and speaker output).
Although KISS is less advanced than the 6pack protocol, it has
the advantage that it is already supported by most modern TNCs
without the need for a firmware upgrade.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
will be called mkiss.
