10 Select to build the driver supporting the:
11
12 Intel Wireless WiFi Link Next-Gen AGN
13
14 This option enables support for use with the following hardware:
15 Intel Wireless WiFi Link 6250AGN Adapter
16 Intel 6000 Series Wi-Fi Adapters (6200AGN and 6300AGN)
17 Intel WiFi Link 1000BGN
18 Intel Wireless WiFi 5150AGN
19 Intel Wireless WiFi 5100AGN, 5300AGN, and 5350AGN
20 Intel 6005 Series Wi-Fi Adapters
21 Intel 6030 Series Wi-Fi Adapters
22 Intel Wireless WiFi Link 6150BGN 2 Adapter
23 Intel 100 Series Wi-Fi Adapters (100BGN and 130BGN)
24 Intel 2000 Series Wi-Fi Adapters

27 This driver uses the kernel's mac80211 subsystem.
28
29 In order to use this driver, you will need a microcode (uCode)
30 image for it. You can obtain the microcode from:
31
32 <http://intellinuxwireless.org/>.
33
34 The microcode is typically installed in /lib/firmware. You can
35 look in the hotplug script /etc/hotplug/firmware.agent to
36 determine which directory FIRMWARE_DIR is set to when the script
37 runs.
38
39 If you want to compile the driver as a module ( = code which can be
40 inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you want),
41 say M here and read <file:Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt>. The
3c607d27 42 module will be called iwlwifi.

50 ---help---
51 This option will enable debug tracing output for the iwlwifi drivers
52
53 This will result in the kernel module being ~100k larger. You can
54 control which debug output is sent to the kernel log by setting the
55 value in

58
59 This entry will only exist if this option is enabled.
60
61 To set a value, simply echo an 8-byte hex value to the same file:
62
add6ff1a 63 % echo 0x43fff > /sys/module/iwlwifi/parameters/debug

64
65 You can find the list of debug mask values in:
66 drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-debug.h
67
68 If this is your first time using this driver, you should say Y here
69 as the debug information can assist others in helping you resolve
70 any problems you may encounter.

89 depends on EVENT_TRACING
90 help
91 Say Y here to trace all commands, including TX frames and IO
92 accesses, sent to the device. If you say yes, iwlwifi will
93 register with the ftrace framework for event tracing and dump
94 all this information to the ringbuffer, you may need to
95 increase the ringbuffer size. See the ftrace documentation
96 for more information.
97
98 When tracing is not enabled, this option still has some
99 (though rather small) overhead.
100
101 If unsure, say Y so we can help you better when problems
102 occur.

116 bool "iwlwifi experimental P2P support"
117 depends on IWLWIFI
118 help
119 This option enables experimental P2P support for some devices
120 based on microcode support. Since P2P support is still under
121 development, this option may even enable it for some devices
122 now that turn out to not support it in the future due to
123 microcode restrictions.
124
125 To determine if your microcode supports the experimental P2P
126 offered by this option, check if the driver advertises AP
127 support when it is loaded.
128
129 Say Y only if you want to experiment with P2P.
