| Select to build the driver supporting the: |
| |
| Intel Wireless WiFi Link Next-Gen AGN |
| |
| This option enables support for use with the following hardware: |
| Intel Wireless WiFi Link 6250AGN Adapter |
| Intel 6000 Series Wi-Fi Adapters (6200AGN and 6300AGN) |
| Intel WiFi Link 1000BGN |
| Intel Wireless WiFi 5150AGN |
| Intel Wireless WiFi 5100AGN, 5300AGN, and 5350AGN |
| Intel 6005 Series Wi-Fi Adapters |
| Intel 6030 Series Wi-Fi Adapters |
| Intel Wireless WiFi Link 6150BGN 2 Adapter |
| Intel 100 Series Wi-Fi Adapters (100BGN and 130BGN) |
| Intel 2000 Series Wi-Fi Adapters |
| |
| |
| This driver uses the kernel's mac80211 subsystem. |
| |
| In order to use this driver, you will need a microcode (uCode) |
| image for it. You can obtain the microcode from: |
| |
| <http://intellinuxwireless.org/>. |
| |
| The microcode is typically installed in /lib/firmware. You can |
| look in the hotplug script /etc/hotplug/firmware.agent to |
| determine which directory FIRMWARE_DIR is set to when the script |
| runs. |
| |
| If you want to compile the driver as a module ( = code which can be |
| inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you want), |
| say M here and read <file:Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt>. The |
| module will be called iwlwifi. |

| config IWLWIFI_DEBUG |
| bool "Enable full debugging output in the iwlwifi driver" |
| depends on IWLWIFI |
| ---help--- |
| This option will enable debug tracing output for the iwlwifi drivers |
| |
| This will result in the kernel module being ~100k larger. You can |
| control which debug output is sent to the kernel log by setting the |
| value in |
| |
| /sys/module/iwlwifi/parameters/debug |
| |
| This entry will only exist if this option is enabled. |
| |
| To set a value, simply echo an 8-byte hex value to the same file: |
| |
| % echo 0x43fff > /sys/module/iwlwifi/parameters/debug |
| |
| You can find the list of debug mask values in: |
| drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-debug.h |
| |
| If this is your first time using this driver, you should say Y here |
| as the debug information can assist others in helping you resolve |
| any problems you may encounter. |

| config IWLWIFI_DEBUGFS |
| bool "iwlwifi debugfs support" |
| depends on IWLWIFI && MAC80211_DEBUGFS |
| ---help--- |
| Enable creation of debugfs files for the iwlwifi drivers. This |
| is a low-impact option that allows getting insight into the |
| driver's state at runtime. |
| |
| config IWLWIFI_DEBUG_EXPERIMENTAL_UCODE |
| bool "Experimental uCode support" |
| depends on IWLWIFI && IWLWIFI_DEBUG |
| ---help--- |
| Enable use of experimental ucode for testing and debugging. |
| |
| config IWLWIFI_DEVICE_TRACING |
| bool "iwlwifi device access tracing" |
| depends on IWLWIFI |
| depends on EVENT_TRACING |
| help |
| Say Y here to trace all commands, including TX frames and IO |
| accesses, sent to the device. If you say yes, iwlwifi will |
| register with the ftrace framework for event tracing and dump |
| all this information to the ringbuffer, you may need to |
| increase the ringbuffer size. See the ftrace documentation |
| for more information. |
| |
| When tracing is not enabled, this option still has some |
| (though rather small) overhead. |
| |
| If unsure, say Y so we can help you better when problems |
| occur. |

| help |
| This option enables the svtool support for iwlwifi device through |
| NL80211_TESTMODE. svtool is a software validation tool that runs in |
| the user space and interacts with the device in the kernel space |
| through the generic netlink message via NL80211_TESTMODE channel. |
