33	---help---
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.

97config MAC80211_DEBUG_PACKET_ALIGNMENT
98	bool "Enable packet alignment debugging"
99	depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
100	---help---
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
105	  architectures.
106
107	  Say N unless you're writing a mac80211 based driver.

109config MAC80211_NOINLINE
110	bool "Do not inline TX/RX handlers"
111	depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
112	---help---
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
116	  paths.
117
118	  This option increases code size a bit and inserts a lot
119	  of function calls in the code, but is otherwise safe to
120	  enable.
121
122	  If unsure, say N unless you expect to be finding problems
123	  in mac80211.

126	bool "Verbose debugging output"
127	depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
128	---help---
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.
133
134	  Do not select this option.

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.)
