-config PREEMPT
- bool "Preemptible Kernel"
- ---help---
- This option reduces the latency of the kernel when reacting to
- real-time or interactive events by allowing a low priority process to
- be preempted even if it is in kernel mode executing a system call.
- This allows applications to run more reliably even when the system is
- under load. On contrary it may also break your drivers and add
- priority inheritance problems to your system. Don't select it if
- you rely on a stable system or have slightly obscure hardware.
- It's also not very well tested on x86-64 currently.
- You have been warned.
