69 This options enables support of Draft 802.11s mesh networking.
70 The implementation is based on Draft 2.08 of the Mesh Networking
71 amendment. However, no compliance with that draft is claimed or even
72 possible, as drafts leave a number of identifiers to be defined after
73 ratification. For more information visit http://o11s.org/.

103 This option affects code generation in mac80211, when
104 selected some functions are marked "noinline" to allow
105 easier debugging of problems in the transmit and receive
106 paths.
107
108 This option increases code size a bit and inserts a lot
109 of function calls in the code, but is otherwise safe to
110 enable.
