30	  This driver uses the kernel's mac80211 subsystem.
31
32	  In order to use this driver, you will need a firmware
33	  image for it. You can obtain the microcode from:
34
35	          <https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/iwlwifi>.
36
37	  The firmware is typically installed in /lib/firmware. You can
38	  look in the hotplug script /etc/hotplug/firmware.agent to
39	  determine which directory FIRMWARE_DIR is set to when the script
40	  runs.
41
42	  If you want to compile the driver as a module ( = code which can be
43	  inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you want),
44	  say M here and read <file:Documentation/kbuild/modules.rst>.  The
45	  module will be called iwlwifi.

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

138config IWLWIFI_DEVICE_TRACING

141	default y
142	help
143	  Say Y here to trace all commands, including TX frames and IO
144	  accesses, sent to the device. If you say yes, iwlwifi will
145	  register with the ftrace framework for event tracing and dump
146	  all this information to the ringbuffer, you may need to
147	  increase the ringbuffer size. See the ftrace documentation
148	  for more information.
149
150	  When tracing is not enabled, this option still has some
151	  (though rather small) overhead.
152
153	  If unsure, say Y so we can help you better when problems
154	  occur.

166	  Enables the iwlmei kernel module.
167
168	  CSME stands for Converged Security and Management Engine. It is a CPU
169	  on the chipset and runs a dedicated firmware. AMT (Active Management
170	  Technology) is one of the applications that run on that CPU. AMT
171	  allows to control the platform remotely.
172
173	  This kernel module allows to communicate with the Intel Management
174	  Engine over Wifi. This is supported starting from Tiger Lake
175	  platforms and has been tested on 9260 devices only.
176	  If AMT is configured not to use the wireless device, this module is
177	  harmless (and useless).
178	  Enabling this option on a platform that has a different device and
179	  has Wireless enabled on AMT can prevent WiFi from working correctly.
