+ 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.
