30 config MAC80211_RC_PID
31 bool "PID controller based rate control algorithm" if EMBEDDED
34 This option enables a TX rate control algorithm for
35 mac80211 that uses a PID controller to select the TX
39 prompt "Default rate control algorithm"
40 default MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT_PID
42 This option selects the default rate control algorithm
43 mac80211 will use. Note that this default can still be
44 overriden through the ieee80211_default_rc_algo module
45 parameter if different algorithms are available.
47 config MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT_PID
48 bool "PID controller based rate control algorithm"
49 depends on MAC80211_RC_PID
51 Select the PID controller based rate control as the
52 default rate control algorithm. You should choose
53 this unless you know what you are doing.
57 config MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT

65 bool "Enable mac80211 mesh networking (pre-802.11s) support"
66 depends on MAC80211 && EXPERIMENTAL
68 This options enables support of Draft 802.11s mesh networking.
69 The implementation is based on Draft 1.08 of the Mesh Networking
70 amendment. For more information visit http://o11s.org/.
74 bool "Enable LED triggers"
79 This option enables a few LED triggers for different
80 packet receive/transmit events.

83 bool "Export mac80211 internals in DebugFS"
84 depends on MAC80211 && DEBUG_FS
86 Select this to see extensive information about
87 the internal state of mac80211 in debugfs.
89 Say N unless you know you need this.
91 menuconfig MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
92 bool "Select mac80211 debugging features"
95 This option collects various mac80211 debug settings.
97 config MAC80211_DEBUG_PACKET_ALIGNMENT
98 bool "Enable packet alignment debugging"
99 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
101 This option is recommended for driver authors and strongly
102 discouraged for everybody else, it will trigger a warning
103 when a driver hands mac80211 a buffer that is aligned in
104 a way that will cause problems with the IP stack on some
107 Say N unless you're writing a mac80211 based driver.
109 config MAC80211_NOINLINE
110 bool "Do not inline TX/RX handlers"
111 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
113 This option affects code generation in mac80211, when
114 selected some functions are marked "noinline" to allow
115 easier debugging of problems in the transmit and receive
118 This option increases code size a bit and inserts a lot
119 of function calls in the code, but is otherwise safe to
122 If unsure, say N unless you expect to be finding problems
125 config MAC80211_VERBOSE_DEBUG
126 bool "Verbose debugging output"
127 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
129 Selecting this option causes mac80211 to print out
130 many debugging messages. It should not be selected
131 on production systems as some of the messages are
132 remotely triggerable.
134 Do not select this option.
136 config MAC80211_HT_DEBUG
137 bool "Verbose HT debugging"
138 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
140 This option enables 802.11n High Throughput features
141 debug tracing output.

144 of the messages are remotely triggerable.
146 Do not select this option.
148 config MAC80211_TKIP_DEBUG
149 bool "Verbose TKIP debugging"
150 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
152 Selecting this option causes mac80211 to print out
153 very verbose TKIP debugging messages. It should not
154 be selected on production systems as those messages
155 are remotely triggerable.
157 Do not select this option.
159 config MAC80211_IBSS_DEBUG
160 bool "Verbose IBSS debugging"
161 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
163 Selecting this option causes mac80211 to print out
164 very verbose IBSS debugging messages. It should not
165 be selected on production systems as those messages
166 are remotely triggerable.
168 Do not select this option.
170 config MAC80211_VERBOSE_PS_DEBUG
171 bool "Verbose powersave mode debugging"
172 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
174 Selecting this option causes mac80211 to print out very
175 verbose power save mode debugging messages (when mac80211
176 is an AP and has power saving stations.)
177 It should not be selected on production systems as those
178 messages are remotely triggerable.

183 bool "Verbose mesh peer link debugging"
184 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
185 depends on MAC80211_MESH
187 Selecting this option causes mac80211 to print out very
188 verbose mesh peer link debugging messages (when mac80211
189 is taking part in a mesh network).

195 config MAC80211_LOWTX_FRAME_DUMP
196 bool "Debug frame dumping"
197 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
199 Selecting this option will cause the stack to
200 print a message for each frame that is handed
201 to the lowlevel driver for transmission. This
202 message includes all MAC addresses and the
205 If unsure, say N and insert the debugging code
206 you require into the driver you are debugging.

212 depends on MAC80211_DEBUGFS
214 Selecting this option causes mac80211 to keep additional
215 and very verbose statistics about TX and RX handler use
