39 If you choose to build a module, it'll be called ath9k.

42 bool "Atheros ath9k PCI/PCIe bus support"
43 default y
44 depends on ATH9K && PCI
45 ---help---
46 This option enables the PCI bus support in ath9k.

84 ---help---
85 Say N. This should only be enabled on systems undergoing
86 certification testing and evaluation in a controlled environment.
87 Enabling this will only enable TX99 support, all other modes of
88 operation will be disabled.
89
90 TX99 support enables Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) testing.
91 SAR is the unit of measurement for the amount of radio frequency(RF)
92 absorbed by the body when using a wireless device. The RF exposure
93 limits used are expressed in the terms of SAR, which is a measure
94 of the electric and magnetic field strength and power density for
95 transmitters operating at frequencies from 300 kHz to 100 GHz.
96 Regulatory bodies around the world require that wireless device
97 be evaluated to meet the RF exposure limits set forth in the
98 governmental SAR regulations.

100 config ATH9K_DFS_CERTIFIED
101 bool "Atheros DFS support for certified platforms"
102 depends on ATH9K && CFG80211_CERTIFICATION_ONUS
103 default n
104 ---help---
105 This option enables DFS support for initiating radiation on
106 ath9k. There is no way to dynamically detect if a card was DFS
107 certified and as such this is left as a build time option. This
108 option should only be enabled by system integrators that can
109 guarantee that all the platforms that their kernel will run on
110 have obtained appropriate regulatory body certification for a
111 respective Atheros card by using ath9k on the target shipping
112 platforms.
113
114 This is currently only a placeholder for future DFS support,
115 as DFS support requires more components that still need to be
116 developed. At this point enabling this option won't do anything
117 except increase code size.

141 help
142 Say Y to have ath9k poll the RF-Kill GPIO every couple of
143 seconds. Turn off to save power, but enable it if you have
144 a platform that can toggle the RF-Kill GPIO.
145
146 config ATH9K_CHANNEL_CONTEXT
147 bool "Channel Context support"

151 This option enables channel context support in ath9k, which is needed
152 for multi-channel concurrency. Enable this if P2P PowerSave support
153 is required.

164 help
165 This separate driver provides a loader in order to support the
166 AR500X to AR92XX-generation of ath9k PCI(e) WiFi chips, which have
167 their initialization data (which contains the real PCI Device ID
168 that ath9k will need) stored together with the calibration data out
169 of reach for the ath9k chip.
170
171 These devices are usually various network appliances, routers or
172 access Points and such.
