22 mac80211 that uses a PID controller to select the TX
25 config MAC80211_RC_MINSTREL
26 bool "Minstrel" if EMBEDDED
29 This option enables the 'minstrel' TX rate control algorithm
32 prompt "Default rate control algorithm"
33 default MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT_MINSTREL
35 This option selects the default rate control algorithm
36 mac80211 will use. Note that this default can still be
37 overridden through the ieee80211_default_rc_algo module
38 parameter if different algorithms are available.
40 config MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT_PID
41 bool "PID controller based rate control algorithm"
42 depends on MAC80211_RC_PID
44 Select the PID controller based rate control as the
45 default rate control algorithm. You should choose
46 this unless you know what you are doing.
48 config MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT_MINSTREL
50 depends on MAC80211_RC_MINSTREL
52 Select Minstrel as the default rate control algorithm.
57 config MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT

66 bool "Enable mac80211 mesh networking (pre-802.11s) support"
67 depends on MAC80211 && EXPERIMENTAL
69 This options enables support of Draft 802.11s mesh networking.
70 The implementation is based on Draft 2.08 of the Mesh Networking
71 amendment. However, no compliance with that draft is claimed or even
72 possible, as drafts leave a number of identifiers to be defined after
73 ratification. For more information visit http://o11s.org/.
76 bool "Enable LED triggers"
81 This option enables a few LED triggers for different
82 packet receive/transmit events.
84 config MAC80211_DEBUGFS

91 Say N unless you know you need this.
93 menuconfig MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
94 bool "Select mac80211 debugging features"
97 This option collects various mac80211 debug settings.
99 config MAC80211_DEBUG_PACKET_ALIGNMENT
100 bool "Enable packet alignment debugging"
101 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
103 This option is recommended for driver authors and strongly
104 discouraged for everybody else, it will trigger a warning
105 when a driver hands mac80211 a buffer that is aligned in
106 a way that will cause problems with the IP stack on some
109 Say N unless you're writing a mac80211 based driver.
111 config MAC80211_NOINLINE
112 bool "Do not inline TX/RX handlers"
113 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
115 This option affects code generation in mac80211, when
116 selected some functions are marked "noinline" to allow
117 easier debugging of problems in the transmit and receive
120 This option increases code size a bit and inserts a lot
121 of function calls in the code, but is otherwise safe to
124 If unsure, say N unless you expect to be finding problems
127 config MAC80211_VERBOSE_DEBUG
128 bool "Verbose debugging output"
129 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
131 Selecting this option causes mac80211 to print out
132 many debugging messages. It should not be selected
133 on production systems as some of the messages are
134 remotely triggerable.
136 Do not select this option.
138 config MAC80211_HT_DEBUG
139 bool "Verbose HT debugging"
140 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
142 This option enables 802.11n High Throughput features

146 of the messages are remotely triggerable.
148 Do not select this option.
150 config MAC80211_TKIP_DEBUG
151 bool "Verbose TKIP debugging"
152 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
154 Selecting this option causes mac80211 to print out
155 very verbose TKIP debugging messages. It should not
156 be selected on production systems as those messages
157 are remotely triggerable.
159 Do not select this option.
161 config MAC80211_IBSS_DEBUG
162 bool "Verbose IBSS debugging"
163 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
165 Selecting this option causes mac80211 to print out
166 very verbose IBSS debugging messages. It should not
167 be selected on production systems as those messages
168 are remotely triggerable.
170 Do not select this option.
172 config MAC80211_VERBOSE_PS_DEBUG
173 bool "Verbose powersave mode debugging"
174 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU

224 depends on EVENT_TRACING
226 Say Y here to make mac80211 register with the ftrace
227 framework for the driver API -- you can see which
228 driver methods it is calling then by looking at the
