15 menu "Rate control algorithm selection"
16 depends on MAC80211 != n
19 prompt "Default rate control algorithm"
20 default MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT_PID
22 This option selects the default rate control algorithm
23 mac80211 will use. Note that this default can still be
24 overriden through the ieee80211_default_rc_algo module
25 parameter if different algorithms are available.
27 config MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT_PID
28 bool "PID controller based rate control algorithm"
29 select MAC80211_RC_PID
31 Select the PID controller based rate control as the
32 default rate control algorithm. You should choose
33 this unless you know what you are doing.
35 config MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT_SIMPLE
36 bool "Simple rate control algorithm"
37 select MAC80211_RC_SIMPLE
39 Select the simple rate control as the default rate
40 control algorithm. Note that this is a non-responsive,
41 dumb algorithm. You should choose the PID rate control
44 config MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT_NONE
45 bool "No default algorithm"
48 Selecting this option will select no default algorithm
49 and allow you to not build any. Do not choose this
50 option unless you know your driver comes with another
54 comment "Selecting 'y' for an algorithm will"
55 comment "build the algorithm into mac80211."
57 config MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT
59 default "pid" if MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT_PID
60 default "simple" if MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT_SIMPLE
63 config MAC80211_RC_PID
64 tristate "PID controller based rate control algorithm"
66 This option enables a TX rate control algorithm for
67 mac80211 that uses a PID controller to select the TX
70 Say Y or M unless you're sure you want to use a
71 different rate control algorithm.
73 config MAC80211_RC_SIMPLE
74 tristate "Simple rate control algorithm (DEPRECATED)"
76 This option enables a very simple, non-responsive TX
77 rate control algorithm. This algorithm is deprecated
78 and will be removed from the kernel in the near future.
79 It has been replaced by the PID algorithm.
81 Say N unless you know what you are doing.
85 bool "Enable LED triggers"
86 depends on MAC80211 && LEDS_TRIGGERS
88 This option enables a few LED triggers for different
89 packet receive/transmit events.
91 config MAC80211_DEBUGFS
92 bool "Export mac80211 internals in DebugFS"
93 depends on MAC80211 && DEBUG_FS
95 Select this to see extensive information about
96 the internal state of mac80211 in debugfs.
98 Say N unless you know you need this.
100 config MAC80211_DEBUG_PACKET_ALIGNMENT
101 bool "Enable packet alignment debugging"
104 This option is recommended for driver authors and strongly
105 discouraged for everybody else, it will trigger a warning
106 when a driver hands mac80211 a buffer that is aligned in
107 a way that will cause problems with the IP stack on some
110 Say N unless you're writing a mac80211 based driver.
112 config MAC80211_DEBUG
113 bool "Enable debugging output"
116 This option will enable debug tracing output for the
117 ieee80211 network stack.
119 If you are not trying to debug or develop the ieee80211
120 subsystem, you most likely want to say N here.
122 config MAC80211_HT_DEBUG
123 bool "Enable HT debugging output"
124 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG
126 This option enables 802.11n High Throughput features
127 debug tracing output.
129 If you are not trying to debug of develop the ieee80211
130 subsystem, you most likely want to say N here.
132 config MAC80211_VERBOSE_DEBUG
133 bool "Verbose debugging output"
134 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG
136 config MAC80211_LOWTX_FRAME_DUMP
137 bool "Debug frame dumping"
138 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG
140 Selecting this option will cause the stack to
141 print a message for each frame that is handed
142 to the lowlevel driver for transmission. This
143 message includes all MAC addresses and the
146 If unsure, say N and insert the debugging code
147 you require into the driver you are debugging.

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