28	  This driver uses the kernel's mac80211 subsystem.
29
30	  In order to use this driver, you will need a firmware
31	  image for it. You can obtain the microcode from:
32
33	          <http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/iwlwifi>.
34
35	  The firmware is typically installed in /lib/firmware. You can
36	  look in the hotplug script /etc/hotplug/firmware.agent to
37	  determine which directory FIRMWARE_DIR is set to when the script
38	  runs.
39
40	  If you want to compile the driver as a module ( = code which can be
41	  inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you want),
42	  say M here and read <file:Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt>.  The
43	  module will be called iwlwifi.

82	bool "Enable broadcast filtering"
83	depends on IWLMVM
84	help
85	  Say Y here to enable default bcast filtering configuration.
86
87	  Enabling broadcast filtering will drop any incoming wireless
88	  broadcast frames, except some very specific predefined
89	  patterns (e.g. incoming arp requests).
90
91	  If unsure, don't enable this option, as some programs might
92	  expect incoming broadcasts for their normal operations.

97       help
98         Say Y here to enable runtime power management for PCIe
99         devices.  If enabled, the device will go into low power mode
100         when idle for a short period of time, allowing for improved
101         power saving during runtime. Note that this feature requires
102         a tight integration with the platform. It is not recommended
103         to enable this feature without proper validation with the
104         specific target platform.
105
106	 If unsure, say N.

110config IWLWIFI_DEBUG
111	bool "Enable full debugging output in the iwlwifi driver"
112	---help---
113	  This option will enable debug tracing output for the iwlwifi drivers
114
115	  This will result in the kernel module being ~100k larger.  You can
116	  control which debug output is sent to the kernel log by setting the
117	  value in
118
119		/sys/module/iwlwifi/parameters/debug
120
121	  This entry will only exist if this option is enabled.
122
123	  To set a value, simply echo an 8-byte hex value to the same file:
124
125		  % echo 0x43fff > /sys/module/iwlwifi/parameters/debug
126
127	  You can find the list of debug mask values in:
128		  drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-debug.h
129
130	  If this is your first time using this driver, you should say Y here
131	  as the debug information can assist others in helping you resolve
132	  any problems you may encounter.
133
134config IWLWIFI_DEBUGFS
135        bool "iwlwifi debugfs support"
136        depends on MAC80211_DEBUGFS
137        ---help---
138	  Enable creation of debugfs files for the iwlwifi drivers. This
139	  is a low-impact option that allows getting insight into the
140	  driver's state at runtime.
141
142config IWLWIFI_DEVICE_TRACING
143	bool "iwlwifi device access tracing"
144	depends on EVENT_TRACING
145	default y
146	help
147	  Say Y here to trace all commands, including TX frames and IO
148	  accesses, sent to the device. If you say yes, iwlwifi will
149	  register with the ftrace framework for event tracing and dump
150	  all this information to the ringbuffer, you may need to
151	  increase the ringbuffer size. See the ftrace documentation
152	  for more information.
153
154	  When tracing is not enabled, this option still has some
155	  (though rather small) overhead.
156
157	  If unsure, say Y so we can help you better when problems
158	  occur.
