29 This driver uses the kernel's mac80211 subsystem.
30
31 In order to use this driver, you will need a microcode (uCode)
32 image for it. You can obtain the microcode from:
33
34 <http://intellinuxwireless.org/>.
35
36 The microcode is typically installed in /lib/firmware. You can
37 look in the hotplug script /etc/hotplug/firmware.agent to
38 determine which directory FIRMWARE_DIR is set to when the script
39 runs.
40
41 If you want to compile the driver as a module ( = code which can be
42 inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you want),
43 say M here and read <file:Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt>. The
Don Fry3c607d22011-09-30 11:40:20 -070044 module will be called iwlwifi.

78 This option will enable debug tracing output for the iwlwifi drivers
79
80 This will result in the kernel module being ~100k larger. You can
81 control which debug output is sent to the kernel log by setting the
82 value in
83
Wey-Yi Guyadd6ff12011-10-10 07:27:07 -070084 /sys/module/iwlwifi/parameters/debug
Tomas Winkler4fc22b22008-07-21 18:54:42 +030085
86 This entry will only exist if this option is enabled.
87
88 To set a value, simply echo an 8-byte hex value to the same file:
89
Wey-Yi Guyadd6ff12011-10-10 07:27:07 -070090 % echo 0x43fff > /sys/module/iwlwifi/parameters/debug
Tomas Winkler4fc22b22008-07-21 18:54:42 +030091
92 You can find the list of debug mask values in:
93 drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-debug.h
94
95 If this is your first time using this driver, you should say Y here
96 as the debug information can assist others in helping you resolve
97 any problems you may encounter.

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