+config CFG80211
+        tristate "Improved wireless configuration API"
+
+config NL80211
+	bool "nl80211 new netlink interface support"
+	depends on 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_OLD_REGULATORY
+	bool "Old wireless static regulatory definitions"
+	default y
+	---help---
+	  This option enables the old static regulatory information
+	  and uses it within the new framework. This is available
+	  temporarily as an option to help prevent immediate issues
+	  due to the switch to the new regulatory framework which
+	  does require a new userspace application which has the
+	  database of regulatory information (CRDA) and another for
+	  setting regulatory domains (iw).
+
+	  For more information see:
+
+	  http://wireless.kernel.org/en/developers/Regulatory/CRDA
+	  http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Documentation/iw
+
+	  It is important to note though that if you *do* have CRDA present
+	  and if this option is enabled CRDA *will* be called to update the
+	  regulatory domain (for US and JP only). Support for letting the user
+	  set the regulatory domain through iw is also supported. This option
+	  mainly exists to leave around for a kernel release some old static
+	  regulatory domains that were defined and to keep around the old
+	  ieee80211_regdom module parameter. This is being phased out and you
+	  should stop using them ASAP.
+
+	  Say Y unless you have installed a new userspace application.
+	  Also say Y if have one currently depending on the ieee80211_regdom
+	  module parameter and cannot port it to use the new userspace
+	  interfaces.
+
+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.
+
+config WIRELESS_EXT_SYSFS
+	bool "Wireless extensions sysfs files"
+	default y
+	depends on WIRELESS_EXT && SYSFS
+	help
+	  This option enables the deprecated wireless statistics
+	  files in /sys/class/net/*/wireless/. The same information
+	  is available via the ioctls as well.
+
+	  Say Y if you have programs using it, like old versions of
+	  hal.
