# Packet configuration

config PACKET
tristate "Packet socket"
---help---
The Packet protocol is used by applications which communicate
directly with network devices without an intermediate network
protocol implemented in the kernel, e.g. tcpdump. If you want them
to work, choose Y.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will
be called af_packet.
If unsure, say Y.
config PACKET_MMAP
bool "Packet socket: mmapped IO"
depends on PACKET
help
If you say Y here, the Packet protocol driver will use an IO
mechanism that results in faster communication.
If unsure, say N.
