0009 This is an alternative driver for various Realtek RTL8XXX
0010 parts written to utilize the Linux mac80211 stack.
0011 The driver is known to work with a number of RTL8723AU,
0012 RL8188CU, RTL8188RU, RTL8191CU, and RTL8192CU devices
0013
0014 This driver is under development and has a limited feature
0015 set. In particular it does not yet support 40MHz channels
0016 and power management. However it should have a smaller
0017 memory footprint than the vendor drivers and benefits
0018 from the in kernel mac80211 stack.
0019
0020 It can coexist with drivers from drivers/staging/rtl8723au,
0021 drivers/staging/rtl8192u, and drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi,
0022 but you will need to control which module you wish to load.
0023
0024 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will
0025 be called r8xxxu. If unsure, say N.
