config CFG80211
tristate "Improved wireless configuration API"
config NL80211
bool "nl80211 new netlink interface support"
depends on CFG80211
default y
---help---
This option turns on the new netlink interface
(nl80211) support in cfg80211.
If =n, drivers using mac80211 will be configured via
wireless extension support provided by that subsystem.
If unsure, say Y.
config WIRELESS_EXT
bool "Wireless extensions"
default n
---help---
This option enables the legacy wireless extensions
(wireless network interface configuration via ioctls.)
Wireless extensions will be replaced by cfg80211 and
will be required only by legacy drivers that implement
wireless extension handlers. This option does not
affect the wireless-extension backward compatibility
code in cfg80211.
Say N (if you can) unless you know you need wireless
extensions for external modules.
config WIRELESS_EXT_SYSFS
bool "Wireless extensions sysfs files"
default y
depends on WIRELESS_EXT && 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 Y if you have programs using it (we don't know of any).
