12 Intel Wireless WiFi Link Next-Gen AGN

14 This option enables support for use with the following hardware:
15 Intel Wireless WiFi Link 6250AGN Adapter
16 Intel 6000 Series Wi-Fi Adapters (6200AGN and 6300AGN)
17 Intel WiFi Link 1000BGN
18 Intel Wireless WiFi 5150AGN

21 Intel 6030 Series Wi-Fi Adapters
22 Intel Wireless WiFi Link 6150BGN 2 Adapter
23 Intel 100 Series Wi-Fi Adapters (100BGN and 130BGN)
24 Intel 2000 Series Wi-Fi Adapters

27 This driver uses the kernel's mac80211 subsystem.
28
29 In order to use this driver, you will need a microcode (uCode)
30 image for it. You can obtain the microcode from:
31
32 <http://intellinuxwireless.org/>.
33
34 The microcode is typically installed in /lib/firmware. You can
35 look in the hotplug script /etc/hotplug/firmware.agent to
36 determine which directory FIRMWARE_DIR is set to when the script
37 runs.
38
39 If you want to compile the driver as a module ( = code which can be
40 inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you want),
41 say M here and read <file:Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt>. The
Don Fry3c607d22011-09-30 11:40:20 -070042 module will be called iwlwifi.

77 This option will enable debug tracing output for the iwlwifi drivers
78
79 This will result in the kernel module being ~100k larger. You can
80 control which debug output is sent to the kernel log by setting the
81 value in

85 This entry will only exist if this option is enabled.
86
87 To set a value, simply echo an 8-byte hex value to the same file:
88

91 You can find the list of debug mask values in:
92 drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-debug.h
93
94 If this is your first time using this driver, you should say Y here
95 as the debug information can assist others in helping you resolve
96 any problems you may encounter.

117 Say Y here to trace all commands, including TX frames and IO
118 accesses, sent to the device. If you say yes, iwlwifi will
119 register with the ftrace framework for event tracing and dump
120 all this information to the ringbuffer, you may need to
121 increase the ringbuffer size. See the ftrace documentation
122 for more information.
123
124 When tracing is not enabled, this option still has some
125 (though rather small) overhead.
126
127 If unsure, say Y so we can help you better when problems
128 occur.

136 This option enables experimental P2P support for some devices
137 based on microcode support. Since P2P support is still under
138 development, this option may even enable it for some devices
139 now that turn out to not support it in the future due to
140 microcode restrictions.

Wey-Yi Guyef213d62012-03-09 09:22:53 -0800142 To determine if your microcode supports the experimental P2P
143 offered by this option, check if the driver advertises AP
144 support when it is loaded.
