Help text

This driver is a developer testing tool that can be used to test IEEE 802.11 networking stack (mac80211) functionality. This is not needed for normal wireless LAN usage and is only for testing. See Documentation/networking/mac80211_hwsim for more information on how to use this tool.

To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called mac80211_hwsim. If unsure, say N.
