5config PACKET
6 tristate "Packet socket"
7 ---help---
8 The Packet protocol is used by applications which communicate
9 directly with network devices without an intermediate network
10 protocol implemented in the kernel, e.g. tcpdump. If you want them
11 to work, choose Y.
12
13 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will
14 be called af_packet.
15
16 If unsure, say Y.
17
18config PACKET_MMAP
19 bool "Packet socket: mmapped IO"
20 depends on PACKET
21 help
22 If you say Y here, the Packet protocol driver will use an IO
23 mechanism that results in faster communication.
24
25 If unsure, say N.
