26 This driver uses the kernel's mac80211 subsystem.
27
Emmanuel Grumbachae7486a2014-07-07 09:25:42 +030028 In order to use this driver, you will need a firmware
Wey-Yi Guybe663ab2011-02-21 11:27:26 -080029 image for it. You can obtain the microcode from:
30
Emmanuel Grumbachae7486a2014-07-07 09:25:42 +030031 <http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/iwlwifi>.
Wey-Yi Guybe663ab2011-02-21 11:27:26 -080032
Emmanuel Grumbachae7486a2014-07-07 09:25:42 +030033 The firmware is typically installed in /lib/firmware. You can
Wey-Yi Guybe663ab2011-02-21 11:27:26 -080034 look in the hotplug script /etc/hotplug/firmware.agent to
35 determine which directory FIRMWARE_DIR is set to when the script
36 runs.
37
38 If you want to compile the driver as a module ( = code which can be
39 inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you want),
40 say M here and read <file:Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt>. The
Don Fry3c607d22011-09-30 11:40:20 -070041 module will be called iwlwifi.

82 Enabling broadcast filtering will drop any incoming wireless
83 broadcast frames, except some very specific predefined
84 patterns (e.g. incoming arp requests).
85
86 If unsure, don't enable this option, as some programs might
87 expect incoming broadcasts for their normal operations.

104 This option will enable debug tracing output for the iwlwifi drivers
105
106 This will result in the kernel module being ~100k larger. You can
107 control which debug output is sent to the kernel log by setting the
108 value in

112 This entry will only exist if this option is enabled.
113
114 To set a value, simply echo an 8-byte hex value to the same file:
115

121 If this is your first time using this driver, you should say Y here
122 as the debug information can assist others in helping you resolve

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.
