| 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 | |
| 18 | config 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. |
