28 This driver uses the kernel's mac80211 subsystem.
29
Emmanuel Grumbachae7486a2014-07-07 09:25:42 +030030 In order to use this driver, you will need a firmware
Wey-Yi Guybe663ab2011-02-21 11:27:26 -080031 image for it. You can obtain the microcode from:
32
Emmanuel Grumbachae7486a2014-07-07 09:25:42 +030033 <http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/iwlwifi>.
Wey-Yi Guybe663ab2011-02-21 11:27:26 -080034
Emmanuel Grumbachae7486a2014-07-07 09:25:42 +030035 The firmware is typically installed in /lib/firmware. You can
Wey-Yi Guybe663ab2011-02-21 11:27:26 -080036 look in the hotplug script /etc/hotplug/firmware.agent to
37 determine which directory FIRMWARE_DIR is set to when the script
38 runs.
39
40 If you want to compile the driver as a module ( = code which can be
41 inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you want),
42 say M here and read <file:Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt>. The
Don Fry3c607d22011-09-30 11:40:20 -070043 module will be called iwlwifi.

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

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

114 This entry will only exist if this option is enabled.
115
116 To set a value, simply echo an 8-byte hex value to the same file:
117
Wey-Yi Guyadd6ff12011-10-10 07:27:07 -0700118 % echo 0x43fff > /sys/module/iwlwifi/parameters/debug

120 You can find the list of debug mask values in:
121 drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-debug.h

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

146 Say Y here to trace all commands, including TX frames and IO
147 accesses, sent to the device. If you say yes, iwlwifi will
148 register with the ftrace framework for event tracing and dump
149 all this information to the ringbuffer, you may need to
150 increase the ringbuffer size. See the ftrace documentation
151 for more information.
152
153 When tracing is not enabled, this option still has some
154 (though rather small) overhead.
155
156 If unsure, say Y so we can help you better when problems
157 occur.
