Lubomir Rintel recently pointed out a dead link for o11s.org, and repointed it to a still live, but also stale website. As far as I know, no one is updating the content at open80211s.org. Since this Kconfig text was originally written, though, the 802.11s mesh drafts were approved and ultimately rolled into 802.11 proper. Meanwhile, the implementation has converged on the final standard, so we can lose all of the text here and provide something that's a little more helpful and accurate.

Select this option to enable 802.11 mesh operation in mac80211

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.
