9 | This option turns on the new netlink interface |
| 10 | (nl80211) support in cfg80211. | |

12 | If =n, drivers using mac80211 will be configured via |
| 13 | wireless extension support provided by that subsystem. | |
| 55682965 | 14 | |
| d6084cb6 | 15 | If unsure, say Y. |

| 20 | ---help--- | |
| 21 | This option enables the legacy wireless extensions | |
| 22 | (wireless network interface configuration via ioctls.) | |
| 23 | ||
| 24 | Wireless extensions will be replaced by cfg80211 and | |
| 25 | will be required only by legacy drivers that implement | |
| 55682965 JB |
26 | wireless extension handlers. This option does not |
| 27 | affect the wireless-extension backward compatibility | |
| 28 | code in cfg80211. | |

| 30 | Say N (if you can) unless you know you need wireless | |
| 31 | extensions for external modules. |
