+config NL80211
+ bool "nl80211 new netlink interface support"
+ depends CFG80211
+ default y
+ ---help---
+ This option turns on the new netlink interface
+ (nl80211) support in cfg80211.
+
+ If =n, drivers using mac80211 will be configured via
+ wireless extension support provided by that subsystem.
+
+ If unsure, say Y.
+
+config WIRELESS_EXT
+ bool "Wireless extensions"
+ default n
+ ---help---
+ This option enables the legacy wireless extensions
+ (wireless network interface configuration via ioctls.)
+
+ Wireless extensions will be replaced by cfg80211 and
+ will be required only by legacy drivers that implement
+ wireless extension handlers. This option does not
+ affect the wireless-extension backward compatibility
+ code in cfg80211.
+
+ Say N (if you can) unless you know you need wireless
+ extensions for external modules.
