  28           This driver uses the kernel's mac80211 subsystem.
  29
  30           In order to use this driver, you will need a firmware
  31           image for it. You can obtain the microcode from:
  32
  33                   <http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/iwlwifi>.
  34
  35           The firmware is typically installed in /lib/firmware. You can
  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
  43           module will be called iwlwifi.

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

  95           Say Y here to enable U-APSD by default. This may cause
  96           interoperability problems with some APs, manifesting in lower than

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

 131           Enable creation of debugfs files for the iwlwifi drivers. This
 132           is a low-impact option that allows getting insight into the

 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.
