CONFIG_BLUEZ
   Bluetooth is low-cost, low-power, short-range wireless technology.
   It was designed as a replacement for cables and other short-range
   technologies like IrDA. Bluetooth operates in personal area range
   that typically extends up to 10 meters.
   More information about Bluetooth can be found at http://www.bluetooth.com

   Linux Bluetooth subsystem consist of several layers:
                 HCI Core (device and connection manager, scheduler)
                 HCI Device drivers (interface to the hardware)
                 L2CAP Module (L2CAP protocol)

   Say Y here to enable Linux Bluetooth support and to build HCI Core
   layer.

   To use Linux Bluetooth subsystem, you will need several user-space utilities
   like hciconfig and hcid. These utilities and updates to Bluetooth kernel
   modules are provided in the BlueZ package.
   For more information, see http://bluez.sf.net.

   If you want to compile HCI Core as module (hci.o) say M here.

   Not sure ? say N.

CONFIG_BLUEZ_L2CAP
   L2CAP (Logical Link Control and Adaptation Protocol) provides connection
   oriented and connection-less data transport. L2CAP support is required for
   most Bluetooth applications.

   Say Y here to compile L2CAP support into the kernel or say M to compile it
   as module (l2cap.o).

   Not sure ? say M.

CONFIG_BLUEZ_HCIUART
   Bluetooth HCI UART driver.
   This driver is required if you want to use Bluetooth devices with serial
   port interface.

   Say Y here to compile support for Bluetooth UART devices into the kernel
   or say M to compile it as module (hci_uart.o).

   Not sure ? say M.

CONFIG_BLUEZ_HCIUSB
   Bluetooth HCI USB driver.
   This driver is required if you want to use Bluetooth devices with USB
   interface.

   Say Y here to compile support for Bluetooth USB devices into the kernel
   or say M to compile it as module (hci_usb.o).

   Not sure ? say M.

CONFIG_BLUEZ_HCIEMU
   Bluetooth Virtual HCI device driver.
   This driver is required if you want to use HCI Emulation software.

   Say Y here to compile support for Virtual HCI devices into the kernel or
   say M to compile it as module (hci_usb.o).

   Not sure ? say M.

Thanks
