---help---
This option enables the hardware independent IEEE 802.11
networking stack.

prompt "Default rate control algorithm"
default MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT_PID
---help---
This option selects the default rate control algorithm
mac80211 will use. Note that this default can still be
overriden through the ieee80211_default_rc_algo module
parameter if different algorithms are available.
config MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT_PID
bool "PID controller based rate control algorithm"
select MAC80211_RC_PID
---help---
Select the PID controller based rate control as the
default rate control algorithm. You should choose
this unless you know what you are doing.
config MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT_SIMPLE
bool "Simple rate control algorithm"
select MAC80211_RC_SIMPLE
---help---
Select the simple rate control as the default rate
control algorithm. Note that this is a non-responsive,
dumb algorithm. You should choose the PID rate control
instead.
config MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT_NONE
bool "No default algorithm"
depends on EMBEDDED
help
Selecting this option will select no default algorithm
and allow you to not build any. Do not choose this
option unless you know your driver comes with another
suitable algorithm.

config MAC80211_RC_PID
tristate "PID controller based rate control algorithm"
---help---
This option enables a TX rate control algorithm for
mac80211 that uses a PID controller to select the TX
rate.
Say Y or M unless you're sure you want to use a
different rate control algorithm.
config MAC80211_RC_SIMPLE
tristate "Simple rate control algorithm (DEPRECATED)"
---help---
This option enables a very simple, non-responsive TX
rate control algorithm. This algorithm is deprecated
and will be removed from the kernel in the near future.
It has been replaced by the PID algorithm.
Say N unless you know what you are doing.

config MAC80211_LEDS
bool "Enable LED triggers"
depends on MAC80211 && LEDS_TRIGGERS
---help---
This option enables a few LED triggers for different
packet receive/transmit events.
config MAC80211_DEBUGFS
bool "Export mac80211 internals in DebugFS"
depends on MAC80211 && DEBUG_FS
---help---
Select this to see extensive information about
the internal state of mac80211 in debugfs.
Say N unless you know you need this.
config MAC80211_DEBUG_PACKET_ALIGNMENT
bool "Enable packet alignment debugging"
depends on MAC80211
help
This option is recommended for driver authors and strongly
discouraged for everybody else, it will trigger a warning
when a driver hands mac80211 a buffer that is aligned in
a way that will cause problems with the IP stack on some
architectures.
Say N unless you're writing a mac80211 based driver.
config MAC80211_DEBUG
bool "Enable debugging output"
depends on MAC80211
---help---
This option will enable debug tracing output for the
ieee80211 network stack.
If you are not trying to debug or develop the ieee80211
subsystem, you most likely want to say N here.
config MAC80211_HT_DEBUG
bool "Enable HT debugging output"
depends on MAC80211_DEBUG
---help---
This option enables 802.11n High Throughput features
debug tracing output.
If you are not trying to debug of develop the ieee80211
subsystem, you most likely want to say N here.
config MAC80211_VERBOSE_DEBUG
bool "Verbose debugging output"
depends on MAC80211_DEBUG
config MAC80211_LOWTX_FRAME_DUMP
bool "Debug frame dumping"
depends on MAC80211_DEBUG
---help---
Selecting this option will cause the stack to
print a message for each frame that is handed
to the lowlevel driver for transmission. This
message includes all MAC addresses and the
frame control field.
If unsure, say N and insert the debugging code
you require into the driver you are debugging.
config TKIP_DEBUG
bool "TKIP debugging"
depends on MAC80211_DEBUG
config MAC80211_DEBUG_COUNTERS
bool "Extra statistics for TX/RX debugging"
depends on MAC80211_DEBUG
config MAC80211_IBSS_DEBUG
bool "Support for IBSS testing"
depends on MAC80211_DEBUG
---help---
Say Y here if you intend to debug the IBSS code.
config MAC80211_VERBOSE_PS_DEBUG
bool "Verbose powersave mode debugging"
depends on MAC80211_DEBUG
---help---
Say Y here to print out verbose powersave
mode debug messages.
