+ bool "MTRR (Memory Type Range Register) support"
+ ---help---
+ On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
+ the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
+ processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
+ a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
+ allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
+ before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
+ of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
+ /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
+ MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
+
+ This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
+ control registers on other processors can be easily supported
+ as well.
+
+ Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
+ set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
+ can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
+
+ Just say Y here, all x86-64 machines support MTRRs.
+
+ See <file:Documentation/mtrr.txt> for more information.
+
+config SMP
+ bool "Symmetric multi-processing support"
+ ---help---
+ This enables support for systems with more than one CPU. If you have
+ a system with only one CPU, like most personal computers, say N. If
+ you have a system with more than one CPU, say Y.
+
+ If you say N here, the kernel will run on single and multiprocessor
+ machines, but will use only one CPU of a multiprocessor machine. If
+ you say Y here, the kernel will run on many, but not all,
+ singleprocessor machines. On a singleprocessor machine, the kernel
+ will run faster if you say N here.
+
+ If you don't know what to do here, say N.
+
+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.
+
+ Say Y here if you are feeling brave and building a kernel for a
+ desktop, embedded or real-time system. Say N if you are unsure.
+
+config PREEMPT_BKL

+config K8_NUMA
+ bool "K8 NUMA support"
+ select NUMA
+ depends on SMP
+ help
+ Enable NUMA (Non Unified Memory Architecture) support for
+ AMD Opteron Multiprocessor systems. The kernel will try to allocate
+ memory used by a CPU on the local memory controller of the CPU
+ and add some more NUMA awareness to the kernel.
+ This code is recommended on all multiprocessor Opteron systems
+ and normally doesn't hurt on others.
+
+config NUMA_EMU
+ bool "NUMA emulation support"
+ select NUMA

+ into virtual nodes when booted with "numa=fake=N", where N is the

+
+ This is purely to save memory - each supported CPU requires

+
+config HPET_TIMER
+ bool
+ default y
+ help
+ Use the IA-PC HPET (High Precision Event Timer) to manage
+ time in preference to the PIT and RTC, if a HPET is
+ present. The HPET provides a stable time base on SMP
+ systems, unlike the TSC, but it is more expensive to access,
+ as it is off-chip. You can find the HPET spec at

+ properly with 32-bit PCI devices that do not support DAC (Double Address
+ Cycle). The IOMMU can be turned off at runtime with the iommu=off parameter.
+ Normally the kernel will take the right choice by itself.

+
+config SECCOMP
+ bool "Enable seccomp to safely compute untrusted bytecode"
+ depends on PROC_FS
+ default y
+ help
+ This kernel feature is useful for number crunching applications
+ that may need to compute untrusted bytecode during their
+ execution. By using pipes or other transports made available to
+ the process as file descriptors supporting the read/write
+ syscalls, it's possible to isolate those applications in
+ their own address space using seccomp. Once seccomp is
+ enabled via /proc/<pid>/seccomp, it cannot be disabled
+ and the task is only allowed to execute a few safe syscalls
+ defined by each seccomp mode.
+
+ If unsure, say Y. Only embedded should say N here.
