17 config MAC80211_DEFAULT_PS
18 bool "enable powersave by default"
22 This option enables powersave mode by default.
24 If this causes your applications to misbehave you should fix your
25 applications instead -- they need to register their network
26 latency requirement, see Documentation/power/pm_qos_interface.txt.

44 bool "Minstrel" if EMBEDDED
47 This option enables the 'minstrel' TX rate control algorithm
50 prompt "Default rate control algorithm"
51 default MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT_MINSTREL
53 This option selects the default rate control algorithm
54 mac80211 will use. Note that this default can still be
55 overridden through the ieee80211_default_rc_algo module
56 parameter if different algorithms are available.
58 config MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT_PID
59 bool "PID controller based rate control algorithm"
60 depends on MAC80211_RC_PID
62 Select the PID controller based rate control as the
63 default rate control algorithm. You should choose
64 this unless you know what you are doing.
66 config MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT_MINSTREL
68 depends on MAC80211_RC_MINSTREL
70 Select Minstrel as the default rate control algorithm.
75 config MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT

84 bool "Enable mac80211 mesh networking (pre-802.11s) support"
85 depends on MAC80211 && EXPERIMENTAL
88 This options enables support of Draft 802.11s mesh networking.
89 The implementation is based on Draft 1.08 of the Mesh Networking
90 amendment. For more information visit http://o11s.org/.
94 bool "Enable LED triggers"
99 This option enables a few LED triggers for different
100 packet receive/transmit events.
102 config MAC80211_DEBUGFS
103 bool "Export mac80211 internals in DebugFS"
104 depends on MAC80211 && DEBUG_FS
106 Select this to see extensive information about
107 the internal state of mac80211 in debugfs.
109 Say N unless you know you need this.
111 menuconfig MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
112 bool "Select mac80211 debugging features"
115 This option collects various mac80211 debug settings.
117 config MAC80211_DEBUG_PACKET_ALIGNMENT
118 bool "Enable packet alignment debugging"
119 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
121 This option is recommended for driver authors and strongly
122 discouraged for everybody else, it will trigger a warning
123 when a driver hands mac80211 a buffer that is aligned in
124 a way that will cause problems with the IP stack on some
127 Say N unless you're writing a mac80211 based driver.
129 config MAC80211_NOINLINE
130 bool "Do not inline TX/RX handlers"
131 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
133 This option affects code generation in mac80211, when
134 selected some functions are marked "noinline" to allow
135 easier debugging of problems in the transmit and receive
138 This option increases code size a bit and inserts a lot
139 of function calls in the code, but is otherwise safe to
142 If unsure, say N unless you expect to be finding problems
145 config MAC80211_VERBOSE_DEBUG
146 bool "Verbose debugging output"
147 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
149 Selecting this option causes mac80211 to print out
150 many debugging messages. It should not be selected
151 on production systems as some of the messages are
152 remotely triggerable.
154 Do not select this option.
156 config MAC80211_HT_DEBUG
157 bool "Verbose HT debugging"
158 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
160 This option enables 802.11n High Throughput features
161 debug tracing output.
163 It should not be selected on production systems as some
164 of the messages are remotely triggerable.
166 Do not select this option.
168 config MAC80211_TKIP_DEBUG
169 bool "Verbose TKIP debugging"
170 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
172 Selecting this option causes mac80211 to print out
173 very verbose TKIP debugging messages. It should not
174 be selected on production systems as those messages
175 are remotely triggerable.
177 Do not select this option.
179 config MAC80211_IBSS_DEBUG
180 bool "Verbose IBSS debugging"
181 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
183 Selecting this option causes mac80211 to print out
184 very verbose IBSS debugging messages. It should not
185 be selected on production systems as those messages
186 are remotely triggerable.
188 Do not select this option.
190 config MAC80211_VERBOSE_PS_DEBUG
191 bool "Verbose powersave mode debugging"
192 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
194 Selecting this option causes mac80211 to print out very
195 verbose power save mode debugging messages (when mac80211
196 is an AP and has power saving stations.)
197 It should not be selected on production systems as those
198 messages are remotely triggerable.
200 Do not select this option.
202 config MAC80211_VERBOSE_MPL_DEBUG
203 bool "Verbose mesh peer link debugging"
204 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
205 depends on MAC80211_MESH
207 Selecting this option causes mac80211 to print out very
208 verbose mesh peer link debugging messages (when mac80211
209 is taking part in a mesh network).
210 It should not be selected on production systems as those
211 messages are remotely triggerable.
213 Do not select this option.
215 config MAC80211_DEBUG_COUNTERS
216 bool "Extra statistics for TX/RX debugging"
217 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
218 depends on MAC80211_DEBUGFS
220 Selecting this option causes mac80211 to keep additional
221 and very verbose statistics about TX and RX handler use
222 and show them in debugfs.
