| ---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. |
