  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

  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
  42           module will be called iwlwifi.

  48         bool "Enable full debugging output in the iwlwifi driver"
  49         depends on 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
  56
  57                 /sys/module/iwlwifi/parameters/debug
  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
  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.

  72 config IWLWIFI_DEBUGFS

  75         ---help---
  76           Enable creation of debugfs files for the iwlwifi drivers. This
  77           is a low-impact option that allows getting insight into the
  78           driver's state at runtime.

  80 config IWLWIFI_DEBUG_EXPERIMENTAL_UCODE
  81         bool "Experimental uCode support"
  82         depends on IWLWIFI && IWLWIFI_DEBUG
  83         ---help---
  84           Enable use of experimental ucode for testing and debugging.

  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.

 110           This option enables the testmode support for iwlwifi device through
 111           NL80211_TESTMODE. This provide the capabilities of enable user space
 112           validation applications to interacts with the device through the

 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.

 135           This option enables experimental MFP (802.11W) support
 136           even if the microcode doesn't advertise it.
 137
 138           Say Y only if you want to experiment with MFP.
