This driver uses the kernel's mac80211 subsystem.
In order to use this driver, you will need a firmware
image for it. You can obtain the microcode from:
<http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/iwlwifi>.
The firmware is typically installed in /lib/firmware. You can
look in the hotplug script /etc/hotplug/firmware.agent to
determine which directory FIRMWARE_DIR is set to when the script
runs.
If you want to compile the driver as a module ( = code which can be
inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you want),
say M here and read <file:Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt>. The
module will be called iwlwifi.
if IWLWIFI
config IWLWIFI_LEDS

depends on LEDS_CLASS=y || LEDS_CLASS=IWLWIFI

This is the driver that supports the DVM firmware. The list
of the devices that use this firmware is available here:

This is the driver that supports the MVM firmware. The list
of the devices that use this firmware is available here:
https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/drivers/iwlwifi#firmware
# don't call it _MODULE -- will confuse Kconfig/fixdep/...

comment "WARNING: iwlwifi is useless without IWLDVM or IWLMVM"
depends on IWLDVM=n && IWLMVM=n
config IWLWIFI_BCAST_FILTERING
bool "Enable broadcast filtering"
depends on IWLMVM
help
Say Y here to enable default bcast filtering configuration.
Enabling broadcast filtering will drop any incoming wireless
broadcast frames, except some very specific predefined
patterns (e.g. incoming arp requests).
If unsure, don't enable this option, as some programs might
expect incoming broadcasts for their normal operations.
config IWLWIFI_UAPSD
bool "enable U-APSD by default"
depends on IWLMVM
help
Say Y here to enable U-APSD by default. This may cause
interoperability problems with some APs, manifesting in lower than
expected throughput due to those APs not enabling aggregation
If unsure, say N.
menu "Debugging Options"
config IWLWIFI_DEBUG
bool "Enable full debugging output in the iwlwifi driver"
---help---
This option will enable debug tracing output for the iwlwifi drivers
This will result in the kernel module being ~100k larger. You can
control which debug output is sent to the kernel log by setting the
value in
/sys/module/iwlwifi/parameters/debug
This entry will only exist if this option is enabled.
To set a value, simply echo an 8-byte hex value to the same file:
% echo 0x43fff > /sys/module/iwlwifi/parameters/debug
You can find the list of debug mask values in:
drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-debug.h
If this is your first time using this driver, you should say Y here
as the debug information can assist others in helping you resolve
any problems you may encounter.
config IWLWIFI_DEBUGFS
bool "iwlwifi debugfs support"
depends on MAC80211_DEBUGFS
---help---
Enable creation of debugfs files for the iwlwifi drivers. This
is a low-impact option that allows getting insight into the
driver's state at runtime.
config IWLWIFI_DEBUG_EXPERIMENTAL_UCODE
bool "Experimental uCode support"
depends on IWLWIFI_DEBUG
---help---
Enable use of experimental ucode for testing and debugging.
config IWLWIFI_DEVICE_TRACING
bool "iwlwifi device access tracing"
depends on EVENT_TRACING
default y
help
Say Y here to trace all commands, including TX frames and IO
accesses, sent to the device. If you say yes, iwlwifi will
register with the ftrace framework for event tracing and dump
all this information to the ringbuffer, you may need to
increase the ringbuffer size. See the ftrace documentation
for more information.
When tracing is not enabled, this option still has some
(though rather small) overhead.
If unsure, say Y so we can help you better when problems
occur.
