This patch refactors the wireless Kconfig all over and already introduces net/wireless/Kconfig with just the WEXT bit for now, the cfg80211 patch will add to that as well.

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.
|
|
|
|
Say N (if you can) unless you know you need wireless
|
|
extensions for external modules.
|

|
config NET_WIRELESS_RTNETLINK
|
|
bool "Wireless Extension API over RtNetlink"
|
|
depends on WIRELESS_EXT
|
|
---help---
|
|
Support the Wireless Extension API over the RtNetlink socket
|
|
in addition to the traditional ioctl interface (selected above).

|
For now, few tools use this facility, but it might grow in the
|
|
future. The only downside is that it adds 4.5 kB to your kernel.
