 config IPW2100
 	tristate "Intel PRO/Wireless 2100 Network Connection"
 	depends on PCI && CFG80211

 	  A driver for the Intel PRO/Wireless 2100 Network
 	  Connection 802.11b wireless network adapter.

 	  See <file:Documentation/networking/device_drivers/wifi/intel/ipw2100.rst>
 	  for information on the capabilities currently enabled in this driver
 	  and for tips for debugging issues and problems.

 	  In order to use this driver, you will need a firmware image for it.
 	  You can obtain the firmware from
 	  <http://ipw2100.sf.net/>.  Once you have the firmware image, you
 	  will need to place it in /lib/firmware.

 	  You will also very likely need the Wireless Tools in order to
 	  configure your card:

 	  <https://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Jean_Tourrilhes/Linux/Tools.html>.

 	  It is recommended that you compile this driver as a module (M)
 	  rather than built-in (Y). This driver requires firmware at device
 	  initialization time, and when built-in this typically happens
 	  before the filesystem is accessible (hence firmware will be
 	  unavailable and initialization will fail). If you do choose to build
 	  this driver into your kernel image, you can avoid this problem by
 	  including the firmware and a firmware loader in an initramfs.

 config IPW2100_MONITOR
 	bool "Enable promiscuous mode"
 	depends on IPW2100
 	help
 	  Enables promiscuous/monitor mode support for the ipw2100 driver.
 	  With this feature compiled into the driver, you can switch to
 	  promiscuous mode via the Wireless Tool's Monitor mode.  While in this
 	  mode, no packets can be sent.

 config IPW2100_DEBUG
 	bool "Enable full debugging output in IPW2100 module."
 	depends on IPW2100
 	help
 	  This option will enable debug tracing output for the IPW2100.

 	  This will result in the kernel module being ~60k larger.  You can
 	  control which debug output is sent to the kernel log by setting the
 	  value in

 	  /sys/bus/pci/drivers/ipw2100/debug_level

 	  This entry will only exist if this option is enabled.

 	  If you are not trying to debug or develop the IPW2100 driver, you
 	  most likely want to say N here.

 config IPW2200_PROMISCUOUS

 	depends on IPW2200_MONITOR
 	select IPW2200_RADIOTAP
 	help
 	  Enables the creation of a second interface prefixed 'rtap'.
 	  This second interface will provide every received in radiotap
 	  format.

 	  This is useful for performing wireless network analysis while
 	  maintaining an active association.

 	  Example usage:

 	    % modprobe ipw2200 rtap_iface=1
 	    % ifconfig rtap0 up
 	    % tethereal -i rtap0

 	  If you do not specify 'rtap_iface=1' as a module parameter then
 	  the rtap interface will not be created and you will need to turn
 	  it on via sysfs:

 	    % echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/ipw2200/*/rtap_iface

 config IPW2200_QOS

 	depends on IPW2200

 config IPW2200_DEBUG
 	bool "Enable full debugging output in IPW2200 module."
 	depends on IPW2200
 	help
 	  This option will enable low level debug tracing output for IPW2200.

 	  Note, normal debug code is already compiled in. This low level
 	  debug option enables debug on hot paths (e.g Tx, Rx, ISR) and
 	  will result in the kernel module being ~70 larger.  Most users
 	  will typically not need this high verbosity debug information.

 	  If you are not sure, say N here.

 	networking stack.  This component is deprecated in favor of the
 	mac80211 component.

 config LIBIPW_DEBUG
 	bool "Full debugging output for the LIBIPW component"
 	depends on LIBIPW
 	help
 	  This option will enable debug tracing output for the
 	  libipw component.

 	  This will result in the kernel module being ~70k larger.  You
 	  can control which debug output is sent to the kernel log by
 	  setting the value in

 	  /proc/net/ieee80211/debug_level

 	  For example:

 	  % echo 0x00000FFO > /proc/net/ieee80211/debug_level

 	  For a list of values you can assign to debug_level, you
 	  can look at the bit mask values in ieee80211.h

 	  If you are not trying to debug or develop the libipw
 	  component, you most likely want to say N here.
