86 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
87 ---help---
88 This option is recommended for driver authors and strongly
89 discouraged for everybody else, it will trigger a warning
90 when a driver hands mac80211 a buffer that is aligned in
91 a way that will cause problems with the IP stack on some
92 architectures.
93
94 Say N unless you're writing a mac80211 based driver.

98 depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
99 ---help---
100 This option affects code generation in mac80211, when
101 selected some functions are marked "noinline" to allow
102 easier debugging of problems in the transmit and receive
103 paths.
104
105 This option increases code size a bit and inserts a lot
106 of function calls in the code, but is otherwise safe to
107 enable.
108
109 If unsure, say N unless you expect to be finding problems
110 in mac80211.

186 Selecting this option will cause the stack to
187 print a message for each frame that is handed
188 to the lowlevel driver for transmission. This
189 message includes all MAC addresses and the
190 frame control field.
