Almost all wireless tools have transitioned to or at least added compatibility with nl80211 so there's no real need for CONFIG_CFG80211_WEXT any more. Mark it for removal, and also change the default to not be enabled. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

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

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

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).

You can enable this if you want to debug regulatory changes.
|

For more information on cfg80211 regulatory refer to the wireless
|
|
wiki:

|
|
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.

|
|
---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.
