+ ---help---
+ cfg80211 is the Linux wireless LAN (802.11) configuration API.
+ Enable this if you have a wireless device.
+
+ For more information refer to documentation on the wireless wiki:
+
+ http://wireless.kernel.org/en/developers/Documentation/cfg80211
+
+ When built as a module it will be called cfg80211.
+
+config NL80211_TESTMODE
+ bool "nl80211 testmode command"
+ depends on CFG80211
+ help
+ The nl80211 testmode command helps implementing things like
+ factory calibration or validation tools for wireless chips.
+
+ Select this option ONLY for kernels that are specifically
+ built for such purposes.
+
+ Debugging tools that are supposed to end up in the hands of
+ users should better be implemented with debugfs.
+
+ Say N.
+
+config CFG80211_DEVELOPER_WARNINGS
+ bool "enable developer warnings"
+ depends on CFG80211
+ default n
+ help
+ This option enables some additional warnings that help
+ cfg80211 developers and driver developers, but that can
+ trigger due to races with userspace.
+
+ For example, when a driver reports that it was disconnected
+ from the AP, but the user disconnects manually at the same
+ time, the warning might trigger spuriously due to races.
+
+ Say Y only if you are developing cfg80211 or a driver based
+ on it (or mac80211).
+
+
+config CFG80211_REG_DEBUG
+ bool "cfg80211 regulatory debugging"
+ depends on CFG80211
+ default n
+ ---help---
+ You can enable this if you want to debug regulatory changes.
+ For more information on cfg80211 regulatory refer to the wireless
+ wiki:
+
+ http://wireless.kernel.org/en/developers/Regulatory
+
+ If unsure, say N.
+
+config CFG80211_DEFAULT_PS
+ bool "enable powersave by default"
+ depends on CFG80211
+ default y
+ help
+ This option enables powersave mode by default.
+
+ If this causes your applications to misbehave you should fix your
+ applications instead -- they need to register their network
+ latency requirement, see Documentation/power/pm_qos_interface.txt.
+
+config CFG80211_DEBUGFS
+ bool "cfg80211 DebugFS entries"
+ depends on CFG80211
+ depends on DEBUG_FS
+ ---help---
+ You can enable this if you want to debugfs entries for cfg80211.
+
+ If unsure, say N.
+
+config CFG80211_INTERNAL_REGDB
+ bool "use statically compiled regulatory rules database" if EXPERT
+ default n
+ depends on CFG80211
+ ---help---
+ This option generates an internal data structure representing
+ the wireless regulatory rules described in net/wireless/db.txt
+ and includes code to query that database. This is an alternative
+ to using CRDA for defining regulatory rules for the kernel.
+
+ For details see:
+
+ http://wireless.kernel.org/en/developers/Regulatory
+
+ Most distributions have a CRDA package. So if unsure, say N.
+
+config CFG80211_WEXT
+ bool "cfg80211 wireless extensions compatibility"
+ depends on CFG80211
+ select WEXT_CORE
+ default y
+ help
+ Enable this option if you need old userspace for wireless
+ extensions with cfg80211-based drivers.
+
+config WIRELESS_EXT_SYSFS
+ bool "Wireless extensions sysfs files"
+ depends on WEXT_CORE && SYSFS
+ help
+ This option enables the deprecated wireless statistics
+ files in /sys/class/net/*/wireless/. The same information
+ is available via the ioctls as well.
+
+ Say N. If you know you have ancient tools requiring it,
+ like very old versions of hal (prior to 0.5.12 release),
+ say Y and update the tools as soon as possible as this
+ option will be removed soon.
+
+config LIB80211
+ tristate "Common routines for IEEE802.11 drivers"
+ default n
+ help
+ This options enables a library of common routines used
+ by IEEE802.11 wireless LAN drivers.
+
+ Drivers should select this themselves if needed. Say Y if
+ you want this built into your kernel.

+ cfg80211 stack doesn't allow to connect if you are already
+ connected. This option allows to make a connection in this case.
+
+ Select this option ONLY for wlan drivers that are specifically
+ built for such purposes.
