	depends on MAC80211
	help
	  Select this option to enable 802.11 mesh operation in mac80211
	  drivers that support it.  802.11 mesh connects multiple stations
	  over (possibly multi-hop) wireless links to form a single logical
	  LAN.

	  Say N unless you know you need this.

config MAC80211_MESSAGE_TRACING
	bool "Trace all mac80211 debug messages"
	depends on MAC80211
	help
	  Select this option to have mac80211 register the
	  mac80211_msg trace subsystem with tracepoints to
	  collect all debugging messages, independent of
	  printing them into the kernel log.

	  The overhead in this option is that all the messages
	  need to be present in the binary and formatted at
	  runtime for tracing.

menuconfig MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
	bool "Select mac80211 debugging features"
	depends on MAC80211
	help
	  This option collects various mac80211 debug settings.

config MAC80211_NOINLINE

	depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
	help
	  This option affects code generation in mac80211, when
	  selected some functions are marked "noinline" to allow
	  easier debugging of problems in the transmit and receive
	  paths.

	  This option increases code size a bit and inserts a lot
	  of function calls in the code, but is otherwise safe to
	  enable.

	  If unsure, say N unless you expect to be finding problems
	  in mac80211.

config MAC80211_VERBOSE_DEBUG
	bool "Verbose debugging output"
	depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
	help
	  Selecting this option causes mac80211 to print out
	  many debugging messages. It should not be selected
	  on production systems as some of the messages are
	  remotely triggerable.

	  Do not select this option.

config MAC80211_MLME_DEBUG
	bool "Verbose managed MLME output"
	depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
	help
	  Selecting this option causes mac80211 to print out
	  debugging messages for the managed-mode MLME. It
	  should not be selected on production systems as some
	  of the messages are remotely triggerable.

	  Do not select this option.

config MAC80211_STA_DEBUG
	bool "Verbose station debugging"
	depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
	help
	  Selecting this option causes mac80211 to print out
	  debugging messages for station addition/removal.

	  Do not select this option.

config MAC80211_HT_DEBUG
	bool "Verbose HT debugging"
	depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
	help
	  This option enables 802.11n High Throughput features
	  debug tracing output.

	  It should not be selected on production systems as some
	  of the messages are remotely triggerable.

	  Do not select this option.

config MAC80211_OCB_DEBUG
	bool "Verbose OCB debugging"
	depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
	help
	  Selecting this option causes mac80211 to print out
	  very verbose OCB debugging messages. It should not
	  be selected on production systems as those messages
	  are remotely triggerable.

	  Do not select this option.

	bool "Verbose IBSS debugging"
	depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU

	  Selecting this option causes mac80211 to print out

	  be selected on production systems as those messages
	  are remotely triggerable.

	  Do not select this option.

config MAC80211_PS_DEBUG
	bool "Verbose powersave mode debugging"
	depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
	help
	  Selecting this option causes mac80211 to print out very
	  verbose power save mode debugging messages (when mac80211
	  is an AP and has power saving stations.)
	  It should not be selected on production systems as those
	  messages are remotely triggerable.

	  Do not select this option.

config MAC80211_MPL_DEBUG
	bool "Verbose mesh peer link debugging"
	depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU

	  is taking part in a mesh network).
	  It should not be selected on production systems as those
	  messages are remotely triggerable.

	  Do not select this option.

config MAC80211_MPATH_DEBUG

	  Selecting this option causes mac80211 to print out very
	  verbose mesh routing (HWMP) debugging messages (when mac80211
	  is taking part in a mesh network).
	  It should not be selected on production systems as those
	  messages are remotely triggerable.

	  Do not select this option.

config MAC80211_MESH_SYNC_DEBUG
	bool "Verbose mesh synchronization debugging"
	depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU

	  Selecting this option causes mac80211 to print out very verbose mesh
	  synchronization debugging messages (when mac80211 is taking part in a
	  mesh network).

	  Do not select this option.

config MAC80211_MESH_CSA_DEBUG

	depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
	depends on MAC80211_MESH
	help
	  Selecting this option causes mac80211 to print out very verbose mesh
	  channel switch debugging messages (when mac80211 is taking part in a

	  Selecting this option causes mac80211 to print out very
	  verbose TDLS selection debugging messages (when mac80211
	  is a TDLS STA).
	  It should not be selected on production systems as those
	  messages are remotely triggerable.

	  Do not select this option.

config MAC80211_DEBUG_COUNTERS
	bool "Extra statistics for TX/RX debugging"
	depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
	depends on MAC80211_DEBUGFS
	help
	  Selecting this option causes mac80211 to keep additional
	  and very verbose statistics about TX and RX handler use
	  as well as a few selected dot11 counters. These will be
	  exposed in debugfs.

	  Note that some of the counters are not concurrency safe
	  and may thus not always be accurate.

	  If unsure, say N.

config MAC80211_STA_HASH_MAX_SIZE
	int "Station hash table maximum size" if MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
	default 0
	help
	  Setting this option to a low value (e.g. 4) allows testing the
	  hash table with collisions relatively deterministically (just
	  connect more stations than the number selected here.)

	  If unsure, leave the default of 0.
