	---help---
	  This option selects the default rate control algorithm
	  mac80211 will use. Note that this default can still be
	  overriden through the ieee80211_default_rc_algo module
	  parameter if different algorithms are available.

	  Select the PID controller based rate control as the

	  this unless you know what you are doing.

config MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT_NONE
	bool "No default algorithm"
	depends on EMBEDDED
	help
	  Selecting this option will select no default algorithm
	  and allow you to not build any. Do not choose this
	  option unless you know your driver comes with another
	  suitable algorithm.

	---help---
	  This option enables a TX rate control algorithm for
	  mac80211 that uses a PID controller to select the TX
	  rate.

	  Say Y or M unless you're sure you want to use a
	  different rate control algorithm.

	bool "Enable mac80211 mesh networking (pre-802.11s) support"
	depends on MAC80211 && EXPERIMENTAL
	---help---
	 This options enables support of Draft 802.11s mesh networking.
	 The implementation is based on Draft 1.08 of the Mesh Networking
	 amendment. For more information visit http://o11s.org/.

	  Say N unless you know you need this.

config MAC80211_DEBUG_PACKET_ALIGNMENT
	bool "Enable packet alignment debugging"
	depends on MAC80211
	help
	  This option is recommended for driver authors and strongly
	  discouraged for everybody else, it will trigger a warning
	  when a driver hands mac80211 a buffer that is aligned in
	  a way that will cause problems with the IP stack on some
	  architectures.

	  Say N unless you're writing a mac80211 based driver.

config MAC80211_DEBUG
	bool "Enable debugging output"
	depends on MAC80211
	---help---
	  This option will enable debug tracing output for the
	  ieee80211 network stack.

	  If you are not trying to debug or develop the ieee80211
	  subsystem, you most likely want to say N here.

config MAC80211_HT_DEBUG
	bool "Enable HT debugging output"
	depends on MAC80211_DEBUG
	---help---
	  This option enables 802.11n High Throughput features
	  debug tracing output.

	  If you are not trying to debug of develop the ieee80211
	  subsystem, you most likely want to say N here.

config MAC80211_LOWTX_FRAME_DUMP
	bool "Debug frame dumping"
	depends on MAC80211_DEBUG
	---help---
	  Selecting this option will cause the stack to
	  print a message for each frame that is handed
	  to the lowlevel driver for transmission. This
	  message includes all MAC addresses and the
	  frame control field.

	  If unsure, say N and insert the debugging code
	  you require into the driver you are debugging.
