  24        ---help---
  25          This option enables a TX rate control algorithm for
  26          mac80211 that uses a PID controller to select the TX
  27          rate.

  41          This option selects the default rate control algorithm
  42          mac80211 will use. Note that this default can still be
  43          overridden through the ieee80211_default_rc_algo module
  44          parameter if different algorithms are available.

  77        ---help---
  78         This options enables support of Draft 802.11s mesh networking.
  79         The implementation is based on Draft 2.08 of the Mesh Networking
  80         amendment.  However, no compliance with that draft is claimed or even
  81         possible, as drafts leave a number of identifiers to be defined after
  82         ratification.  For more information visit http://o11s.org/.

 114          easier debugging of problems in the transmit and receive
 115          paths.
 116
 117          This option increases code size a bit and inserts a lot
 118          of function calls in the code, but is otherwise safe to
 119          enable.
