   7           b43 is a driver for the Broadcom 43xx series wireless devices.
   8
   9           Check "lspci" for something like
  10           "Broadcom Corporation BCM43XX 802.11 Wireless LAN Controller"
  11           to determine whether you own such a device.
  12
  13           This driver supports the new BCM43xx IEEE 802.11G devices, but not
  14           the old IEEE 802.11B devices. Old devices are supported by
  15           the b43legacy driver.
  16           Note that this has nothing to do with the standard that your AccessPoint
  17           supports (A, B, G or a combination).
  18           IEEE 802.11G devices can talk to IEEE 802.11B AccessPoints.
  19
  20           It is safe to include both b43 and b43legacy as the underlying glue
  21           layer will automatically load the correct version for your device.
  22
  23           This driver uses V4 firmware, which must be installed separately using
  24           b43-fwcutter.
  25
  26           This driver can be built as a module (recommended) that will be called "b43".
  27           If unsure, say M.

  49           Broadcom 43xx PCMCIA device support.
  50
  51           Support for 16bit PCMCIA devices.
  52           Please note that most PC-CARD devices are _NOT_ 16bit PCMCIA
  53           devices, but 32bit CardBUS devices. CardBUS devices are supported
  54           out of the box by b43.
  55
  56           With this config option you can drive b43 cards in
  57           CompactFlash formfactor in a PCMCIA adaptor.
  58           CF b43 cards can sometimes be found in handheld PCs.
  59
  60           It's safe to select Y here, even if you don't have a B43 PCMCIA device.
  61
  62           If unsure, say N.

  84         depends on B43 && EXPERIMENTAL
  85         default y
  86         ---help---
  87           Support for the LP-PHY.
  88           The LP-PHY is a low-power PHY built into some notebooks
  89           and embedded devices. It supports 802.11a/g
  90           (802.11a support is optional, and currently disabled).

 110           Broadcom 43xx debugging.
 111
 112           This adds additional runtime sanity checks and statistics to the driver.
 113           These checks and statistics might me expensive and hurt runtime performance
 114           of your system.
 115           This also adds the b43 debugfs interface.
 116
 117           Do not enable this, unless you are debugging the driver.
 118
 119           Say N, if you are a distributor or user building a release kernel
 120           for production use.
 121           Only say Y, if you are debugging a problem in the b43 driver sourcecode.
 122
 123 config B43_FORCE_PIO
 124         bool "Force usage of PIO instead of DMA"
 125         depends on B43 && B43_DEBUG
 126         ---help---
 127           This will disable DMA and always enable PIO instead.
 128
 129           Say N!
 130           This is only for debugging the PIO engine code. You do
 131           _NOT_ want to enable this.
