27 menu "Rate control algorithm selection"
28 depends on MAC80211 != n
31 prompt "Default rate control algorithm"
32 default MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT_PID
34 This option selects the default rate control algorithm
35 mac80211 will use. Note that this default can still be
36 overriden through the ieee80211_default_rc_algo module
37 parameter if different algorithms are available.
39 config MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT_PID
40 bool "PID controller based rate control algorithm"
41 select MAC80211_RC_PID
43 Select the PID controller based rate control as the
44 default rate control algorithm. You should choose
45 this unless you know what you are doing.
47 config MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT_NONE
48 bool "No default algorithm"
51 Selecting this option will select no default algorithm
52 and allow you to not build any. Do not choose this
53 option unless you know your driver comes with another
57 comment "Selecting 'y' for an algorithm will"
58 comment "build the algorithm into mac80211."

62 default "pid" if MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT_PID
65 config MAC80211_RC_PID
66 tristate "PID controller based rate control algorithm"
68 This option enables a TX rate control algorithm for
69 mac80211 that uses a PID controller to select the TX
72 Say Y or M unless you're sure you want to use a
73 different rate control algorithm.
78 bool "Enable mac80211 mesh networking (pre-802.11s) support"
79 depends on MAC80211 && EXPERIMENTAL
81 This options enables support of Draft 802.11s mesh networking.
82 The implementation is based on Draft 1.08 of the Mesh Networking
83 amendment. For more information visit http://o11s.org/.
87 bool "Enable LED triggers"
92 This option enables a few LED triggers for different
93 packet receive/transmit events.
95 config MAC80211_DEBUGFS
96 bool "Export mac80211 internals in DebugFS"
97 depends on MAC80211 && DEBUG_FS
99 Select this to see extensive information about
100 the internal state of mac80211 in debugfs.
102 Say N unless you know you need this.
104 config MAC80211_DEBUG_PACKET_ALIGNMENT
105 bool "Enable packet alignment debugging"
108 This option is recommended for driver authors and strongly
109 discouraged for everybody else, it will trigger a warning
110 when a driver hands mac80211 a buffer that is aligned in
111 a way that will cause problems with the IP stack on some
114 Say N unless you're writing a mac80211 based driver.
116 config MAC80211_DEBUG
117 bool "Enable debugging output"
120 This option will enable debug tracing output for the
121 ieee80211 network stack.
123 If you are not trying to debug or develop the ieee80211
124 subsystem, you most likely want to say N here.
126 config MAC80211_HT_DEBUG
127 bool "Enable HT debugging output"
128 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG
130 This option enables 802.11n High Throughput features
131 debug tracing output.
133 If you are not trying to debug of develop the ieee80211
134 subsystem, you most likely want to say N here.
136 config MAC80211_VERBOSE_DEBUG
137 bool "Verbose debugging output"
138 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG
140 config MAC80211_LOWTX_FRAME_DUMP
141 bool "Debug frame dumping"
142 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG
144 Selecting this option will cause the stack to
145 print a message for each frame that is handed
146 to the lowlevel driver for transmission. This
147 message includes all MAC addresses and the
150 If unsure, say N and insert the debugging code
151 you require into the driver you are debugging.

163 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG
165 Say Y here if you intend to debug the IBSS code.
167 config MAC80211_VERBOSE_PS_DEBUG
168 bool "Verbose powersave mode debugging"
169 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG
171 Say Y here to print out verbose powersave

175 bool "Verbose mesh peer link debugging"
176 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG && MAC80211_MESH
