51	  parameter if different algorithms are available.

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

113	---help---
114	  Select this option to have mac80211 register the
115	  mac80211_msg trace subsystem with tracepoints to
116	  collect all debugging messages, independent of
117	  printing them into the kernel log.
118
119	  The overhead in this option is that all the messages
120	  need to be present in the binary and formatted at
121	  runtime for tracing.

132	---help---
133	  This option affects code generation in mac80211, when
134	  selected some functions are marked "noinline" to allow
135	  easier debugging of problems in the transmit and receive
136	  paths.
137
138	  This option increases code size a bit and inserts a lot
139	  of function calls in the code, but is otherwise safe to
140	  enable.

143	  in mac80211.

147	depends on MAC80211_DEBUG_MENU
148	---help---
149	  Selecting this option causes mac80211 to print out
150	  many debugging messages. It should not be selected
151	  on production systems as some of the messages are
152	  remotely triggerable.
