26	  This driver uses the kernel's mac80211 subsystem.
27
28	  In order to use this driver, you will need a firmware
29	  image for it. You can obtain the microcode from:
30
31	          <http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/iwlwifi>.
32
33	  The firmware is typically installed in /lib/firmware. You can
34	  look in the hotplug script /etc/hotplug/firmware.agent to
35	  determine which directory FIRMWARE_DIR is set to when the script
36	  runs.
37
38	  If you want to compile the driver as a module ( = code which can be
39	  inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you want),
40	  say M here and read <file:Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt>.  The
41	  module will be called iwlwifi.

76	bool "Enable broadcast filtering"
77	depends on IWLMVM
78	help
79	  Say Y here to enable default bcast filtering configuration.
80
81	  Enabling broadcast filtering will drop any incoming wireless
82	  broadcast frames, except some very specific predefined
83	  patterns (e.g. incoming arp requests).
84
85	  If unsure, don't enable this option, as some programs might
86	  expect incoming broadcasts for their normal operations.
87
88config IWLWIFI_UAPSD
89	bool "enable U-APSD by default"
90	depends on IWLMVM
91	help
92	  Say Y here to enable U-APSD by default. This may cause
93	  interoperability problems with some APs, manifesting in lower than
94	  expected throughput due to those APs not enabling aggregation
95
96	  If unsure, say N.

100config IWLWIFI_DEBUG
101	bool "Enable full debugging output in the iwlwifi driver"
102	---help---
103	  This option will enable debug tracing output for the iwlwifi drivers
104
105	  This will result in the kernel module being ~100k larger.  You can
106	  control which debug output is sent to the kernel log by setting the
107	  value in
108
109		/sys/module/iwlwifi/parameters/debug
110
111	  This entry will only exist if this option is enabled.
112
113	  To set a value, simply echo an 8-byte hex value to the same file:
114
115		  % echo 0x43fff > /sys/module/iwlwifi/parameters/debug
116
117	  You can find the list of debug mask values in:
118		  drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-debug.h
119
120	  If this is your first time using this driver, you should say Y here
121	  as the debug information can assist others in helping you resolve
122	  any problems you may encounter.
123
124config IWLWIFI_DEBUGFS
125        bool "iwlwifi debugfs support"
126        depends on MAC80211_DEBUGFS
127        ---help---
128	  Enable creation of debugfs files for the iwlwifi drivers. This
129	  is a low-impact option that allows getting insight into the
130	  driver's state at runtime.
131
132config IWLWIFI_DEBUG_EXPERIMENTAL_UCODE
133        bool "Experimental uCode support"
134        depends on IWLWIFI_DEBUG
135        ---help---
136	  Enable use of experimental ucode for testing and debugging.

138config IWLWIFI_DEVICE_TRACING
139	bool "iwlwifi device access tracing"
140	depends on EVENT_TRACING
141	help
142	  Say Y here to trace all commands, including TX frames and IO
143	  accesses, sent to the device. If you say yes, iwlwifi will
144	  register with the ftrace framework for event tracing and dump
145	  all this information to the ringbuffer, you may need to
146	  increase the ringbuffer size. See the ftrace documentation
147	  for more information.
148
149	  When tracing is not enabled, this option still has some
150	  (though rather small) overhead.
151
152	  If unsure, say Y so we can help you better when problems
153	  occur.
