2 tristate "Generic IEEE 802.11 Networking Stack (mac80211)"
3 depends on EXPERIMENTAL
13 This option enables the hardware independent IEEE 802.11
16 menu "Rate control algorithm selection"
17 depends on MAC80211 != n
20 prompt "Default rate control algorithm"
21 default MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT_PID
23 This option selects the default rate control algorithm
24 mac80211 will use. Note that this default can still be
25 overriden through the ieee80211_default_rc_algo module
26 parameter if different algorithms are available.
28 config MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT_PID
29 bool "PID controller based rate control algorithm"
30 select MAC80211_RC_PID
32 Select the PID controller based rate control as the
33 default rate control algorithm. You should choose
34 this unless you know what you are doing.
36 config MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT_SIMPLE
37 bool "Simple rate control algorithm"
38 select MAC80211_RC_SIMPLE
40 Select the simple rate control as the default rate
41 control algorithm. Note that this is a non-responsive,
42 dumb algorithm. You should choose the PID rate control
45 config MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT_NONE
46 bool "No default algorithm"
49 Selecting this option will select no default algorithm
50 and allow you to not build any. Do not choose this
51 option unless you know your driver comes with another
55 comment "Selecting 'y' for an algorithm will"
56 comment "build the algorithm into mac80211."
58 config MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT
60 default "pid" if MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT_PID
61 default "simple" if MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT_SIMPLE
64 config MAC80211_RC_PID
65 tristate "PID controller based rate control algorithm"
67 This option enables a TX rate control algorithm for
68 mac80211 that uses a PID controller to select the TX
71 Say Y or M unless you're sure you want to use a
72 different rate control algorithm.
74 config MAC80211_RC_SIMPLE
75 tristate "Simple rate control algorithm (DEPRECATED)"
77 This option enables a very simple, non-responsive TX
78 rate control algorithm. This algorithm is deprecated
79 and will be removed from the kernel in the near future.
80 It has been replaced by the PID algorithm.
82 Say N unless you know what you are doing.
86 bool "Enable LED triggers"
87 depends on MAC80211 && LEDS_TRIGGERS
89 This option enables a few LED triggers for different
90 packet receive/transmit events.
92 config MAC80211_DEBUGFS
93 bool "Export mac80211 internals in DebugFS"
94 depends on MAC80211 && DEBUG_FS
96 Select this to see extensive information about
97 the internal state of mac80211 in debugfs.
99 Say N unless you know you need this.
101 config MAC80211_DEBUG
102 bool "Enable debugging output"
105 This option will enable debug tracing output for the
106 ieee80211 network stack.
108 If you are not trying to debug or develop the ieee80211
109 subsystem, you most likely want to say N here.
111 config MAC80211_HT_DEBUG
112 bool "Enable HT debugging output"
113 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG
115 This option enables 802.11n High Throughput features
116 debug tracing output.
118 If you are not trying to debug of develop the ieee80211
119 subsystem, you most likely want to say N here.
121 config MAC80211_VERBOSE_DEBUG
122 bool "Verbose debugging output"
123 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG
125 config MAC80211_LOWTX_FRAME_DUMP
126 bool "Debug frame dumping"
127 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG
129 Selecting this option will cause the stack to
130 print a message for each frame that is handed
131 to the lowlevel driver for transmission. This
132 message includes all MAC addresses and the
135 If unsure, say N and insert the debugging code
136 you require into the driver you are debugging.

154 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG
156 Say Y here to print out verbose powersave
