28 This driver uses the kernel's mac80211 subsystem.
29
ae7486a2 30 In order to use this driver, you will need a firmware
be663ab6
WYG
31 image for it. You can obtain the microcode from:
32
ae7486a2 33 <http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/iwlwifi>.
be663ab6 34
ae7486a2 35 The firmware is typically installed in /lib/firmware. You can
be663ab6
WYG
36 look in the hotplug script /etc/hotplug/firmware.agent to
37 determine which directory FIRMWARE_DIR is set to when the script
38 runs.
39
40 If you want to compile the driver as a module ( = code which can be
41 inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you want),
42 say M here and read <file:Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt>. The
3c607d27 43 module will be called iwlwifi.

82 help
83 Say Y here to enable default bcast filtering configuration.
84
85 Enabling broadcast filtering will drop any incoming wireless
86 broadcast frames, except some very specific predefined
87 patterns (e.g. incoming arp requests).
88
89 If unsure, don't enable this option, as some programs might
90 expect incoming broadcasts for their normal operations.

96 Say Y here to enable U-APSD by default. This may cause
97 interoperability problems with some APs, manifesting in lower than
98 expected throughput due to those APs not enabling aggregation

TW
106 ---help---
107 This option will enable debug tracing output for the iwlwifi drivers
108
109 This will result in the kernel module being ~100k larger. You can
110 control which debug output is sent to the kernel log by setting the
111 value in
112
add6ff1a 113 /sys/module/iwlwifi/parameters/debug
4fc22b21
TW
114
115 This entry will only exist if this option is enabled.
116
117 To set a value, simply echo an 8-byte hex value to the same file:
118
add6ff1a 119 % echo 0x43fff > /sys/module/iwlwifi/parameters/debug
4fc22b21
TW
120
121 You can find the list of debug mask values in:
122 drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-debug.h
123
124 If this is your first time using this driver, you should say Y here
125 as the debug information can assist others in helping you resolve
126 any problems you may encounter.

JB
144 depends on EVENT_TRACING
145 help
146 Say Y here to trace all commands, including TX frames and IO
147 accesses, sent to the device. If you say yes, iwlwifi will
148 register with the ftrace framework for event tracing and dump
149 all this information to the ringbuffer, you may need to
150 increase the ringbuffer size. See the ftrace documentation
151 for more information.
152
153 When tracing is not enabled, this option still has some
154 (though rather small) overhead.
155
156 If unsure, say Y so we can help you better when problems
157 occur.
