10 This option will enable debug tracing output for the iwlwifi drivers
11
12 This will result in the kernel module being ~100k larger. You can
13 control which debug output is sent to the kernel log by setting the
14 value in
15
16 /sys/class/net/wlan0/device/debug_level
17
18 This entry will only exist if this option is enabled.
19
20 To set a value, simply echo an 8-byte hex value to the same file:
21
22 % echo 0x43fff > /sys/class/net/wlan0/device/debug_level
23
24 You can find the list of debug mask values in:
25 drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-debug.h
26
27 If this is your first time using this driver, you should say Y here
28 as the debug information can assist others in helping you resolve
29 any problems you may encounter.

35 Enable creation of debugfs files for the iwlwifi drivers. This
36 is a low-impact option that allows getting insight into the
37 driver's state at runtime.

39config IWLWIFI_DEVICE_TRACING
40 bool "iwlwifi device access tracing"
41 depends on IWLWIFI
42 depends on EVENT_TRACING
43 help
44 Say Y here to trace all commands, including TX frames and IO
45 accesses, sent to the device. If you say yes, iwlwifi will
46 register with the ftrace framework for event tracing and dump
47 all this information to the ringbuffer, you may need to
48 increase the ringbuffer size. See the ftrace documentation
49 for more information.
50
51 When tracing is not enabled, this option still has some
52 (though rather small) overhead.
53
54 If unsure, say Y so we can help you better when problems
55 occur.

67 In order to use this driver, you will need a microcode (uCode)
68 image for it. You can obtain the microcode from:
b481de9c 69
c8b0e6e1 70 <http://intellinuxwireless.org/>.

72 The microcode is typically installed in /lib/firmware. You can
73 look in the hotplug script /etc/hotplug/firmware.agent to
74 determine which directory FIRMWARE_DIR is set to when the script
75 runs.
b481de9c 76
c8b0e6e1 77 If you want to compile the driver as a module ( = code which can be
7c44b6e9 78 inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you want),
c8b0e6e1 79 say M here and read <file:Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt>. The
4737f097 80 module will be called iwlagn.
