- b43 is a driver for the Broadcom 43xx series wireless devices.
- Check "lspci" for something like
- "Broadcom Corporation BCM43XX 802.11 Wireless LAN Controller"
- to determine whether you own such a device.
- This driver supports the new BCM43xx IEEE 802.11G devices, but not
- the old IEEE 802.11B devices. Old devices are supported by
- the b43legacy driver.
- Note that this has nothing to do with the standard that your AccessPoint
- supports (A, B, G or a combination).
- IEEE 802.11G devices can talk to IEEE 802.11B AccessPoints.
- It is safe to include both b43 and b43legacy as the underlying glue
- layer will automatically load the correct version for your device.
- This driver uses V4 firmware, which must be installed separately using
- b43-fwcutter.
- This driver can be built as a module (recommended) that will be called "b43".
- If unsure, say M.

- Broadcom 43xx PCMCIA device support.
- Support for 16bit PCMCIA devices.
- Please note that most PC-CARD devices are _NOT_ 16bit PCMCIA
- devices, but 32bit CardBUS devices. CardBUS devices are supported
- out of the box by b43.
- With this config option you can drive b43 cards in
- CompactFlash formfactor in a PCMCIA adaptor.
- CF b43 cards can sometimes be found in handheld PCs.
- It's safe to select Y here, even if you don't have a B43 PCMCIA device.
- If unsure, say N.

- With this config option you can drive Soft-MAC b43 cards with a
- Secure Digital I/O interface.
- This includes the WLAN daughter card found on the Nintendo Wii
- video game console.
- Note that this does not support Broadcom 43xx Full-MAC devices.
- It's safe to select Y here, even if you don't have a B43 SDIO device.
- If unsure, say N.

- # if we can do DMA.

- config B43_PHY_N
- bool "Support for 802.11n (N-PHY) devices (EXPERIMENTAL)"
- depends on B43 && EXPERIMENTAL
- ---help---
- Support for the N-PHY.
- This enables support for devices with N-PHY.
- Say N if you expect high stability and performance. Saying Y will not
- affect other devices support and may provide support for basic needs.
- config B43_PHY_LP
- bool "Support for low-power (LP-PHY) devices"
- depends on B43
- default y
- ---help---
- Support for the LP-PHY.
- The LP-PHY is a low-power PHY built into some notebooks
- and embedded devices. It supports 802.11a/b/g
- (802.11a support is optional, and currently disabled).
- config B43_PHY_HT
- bool "Support for HT-PHY (high throughput) devices (EXPERIMENTAL)"
- depends on B43 && EXPERIMENTAL
- ---help---
- Support for the HT-PHY.
- Enables support for BCM4331 and possibly other chipsets with that PHY.
- config B43_PHY_LCN
- bool "Support for LCN-PHY devices (BROKEN)"
- depends on B43 && BROKEN
- ---help---
- Support for the LCN-PHY.
- Say N, this is BROKEN and crashes driver.
- # This config option automatically enables b43 LEDS support,
- # if it's possible.
- config B43_LEDS

- default y
- config B43_DEBUG
- bool "Broadcom 43xx debugging"
- depends on B43
- ---help---
- Broadcom 43xx debugging.
- This adds additional runtime sanity checks and statistics to the driver.
- These checks and statistics might me expensive and hurt runtime performance
- of your system.
- This also adds the b43 debugfs interface.
- Do not enable this, unless you are debugging the driver.
- Say N, if you are a distributor or user building a release kernel
- for production use.
- Only say Y, if you are debugging a problem in the b43 driver sourcecode.
