If you have FireWire hardware and want to use it, say Y here. This is the core support only, you will also need to select a driver for your IEEE 1394 adapter. If you want to compile this as a module ( = code which can be inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you want), say M here and read Documentation/modules.txt. The module will be called ieee1394.o. And now, the most definitive: the drivers/ieee1394/ directory :-) So yes, it's there, but how well userspace supports it I don't know.
