2 tristate "Improved wireless configuration API"
5 bool "Wireless extensions"
8 This option enables the legacy wireless extensions
9 (wireless network interface configuration via ioctls.)
11 Wireless extensions will be replaced by cfg80211 and

18 config NET_WIRELESS_RTNETLINK
19 bool "Wireless Extension API over RtNetlink"

22 Support the Wireless Extension API over the RtNetlink socket
23 in addition to the traditional ioctl interface (selected above).
