29 | This driver uses the kernel's mac80211 subsystem. | |
30 | ||
31 | In order to use this driver, you will need a microcode (uCode) | |
32 | image for it. You can obtain the microcode from: | |
33 | ||
34 | <http://intellinuxwireless.org/>. | |
35 | ||
36 | The microcode is typically installed in /lib/firmware. You can | |
37 | look in the hotplug script /etc/hotplug/firmware.agent to | |
38 | determine which directory FIRMWARE_DIR is set to when the script | |
39 | runs. | |
40 | ||
41 | If you want to compile the driver as a module ( = code which can be | |
42 | inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you want), | |
43 | say M here and read <file:Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt>. The | |
3c607d27 | 44 | module will be called iwlwifi. |

77 | ---help--- |
78 | This option will enable debug tracing output for the iwlwifi drivers | |
79 | ||
80 | This will result in the kernel module being ~100k larger. You can | |
81 | control which debug output is sent to the kernel log by setting the | |
82 | value in | |
83 | ||
add6ff1a | 84 | /sys/module/iwlwifi/parameters/debug |
4fc22b21 TW |
85 | |
86 | This entry will only exist if this option is enabled. | |
87 | ||
88 | To set a value, simply echo an 8-byte hex value to the same file: | |
89 | ||
add6ff1a | 90 | % echo 0x43fff > /sys/module/iwlwifi/parameters/debug |
4fc22b21 TW |
91 | |
92 | You can find the list of debug mask values in: | |
93 | drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-debug.h | |
94 | ||
95 | If this is your first time using this driver, you should say Y here | |
96 | as the debug information can assist others in helping you resolve | |
97 | any problems you may encounter. | |

117 | help | |
118 | Say Y here to trace all commands, including TX frames and IO | |
119 | accesses, sent to the device. If you say yes, iwlwifi will | |
120 | register with the ftrace framework for event tracing and dump | |
121 | all this information to the ringbuffer, you may need to | |
122 | increase the ringbuffer size. See the ftrace documentation | |
123 | for more information. | |
124 | ||
125 | When tracing is not enabled, this option still has some | |
126 | (though rather small) overhead. | |
127 | ||
128 | If unsure, say Y so we can help you better when problems | |
129 | occur. | |
