38# SMP OPTIONS:
39#
40# The apic device enables the use of the I/O APIC for interrupt delivery.
41# The apic device can be used in both UP and SMP kernels, but is required
42# for SMP kernels.  Thus, the apic device is not strictly an SMP option,
43# but it is a prerequisite for SMP.
44#
45# Notes:
46#
47# HTT CPUs should only be used if they are enabled in the BIOS.  For
48# the ACPI case, ACPI only correctly tells us about any HTT CPUs if
49# they are enabled.  However, most HTT systems do not list HTT CPUs
50# in the MP Table if they are enabled, thus we guess at the HTT CPUs
51# for the MP Table case.  However, we shouldn't try to guess and use
52# these CPUs if HTT is disabled.  Thus, HTT guessing is only enabled
53# for the MP Table if the user explicitly asks for it via the
54# MPTABLE_FORCE_HTT option.  Do NOT use this option if you have HTT
55# disabled in your BIOS.
56#
57# IPI_PREEMPTION instructs the kernel to preempt threads running on other

84# deleting the specification for CPUs you don't need to use may make
85# parts of the system run faster.

89cpu		I686_CPU		# aka Pentium Pro(tm)

91#
92# Options for CPU features.
93#
94# CPU_ATHLON_SSE_HACK tries to enable SSE instructions when the BIOS has
95# forgotten to enable them.
96#
97# CPU_BLUELIGHTNING_3X enables triple-clock mode on IBM Blue Lightning
98# CPU if CPU supports it.  The default is double-clock mode on
99# BlueLightning CPU box.
100#
101# CPU_BLUELIGHTNING_FPU_OP_CACHE enables FPU operand cache on IBM
102# BlueLightning CPU.  It works only with Cyrix FPU, and this option
103# should not be used with Intel FPU.
104#
105# CPU_BTB_EN enables branch target buffer on Cyrix 5x86 (NOTE 1).
106#
107# CPU_CYRIX_NO_LOCK enables weak locking for the entire address space
108# of Cyrix 6x86 and 6x86MX CPUs by setting the NO_LOCK bit of CCR1.
109# Otherwise, the NO_LOCK bit of CCR1 is cleared.  (NOTE 3)
110#
111# CPU_DIRECT_MAPPED_CACHE sets L1 cache of Cyrix 486DLC CPU in direct
112# mapped mode.  Default is 2-way set associative mode.
113#
114# CPU_DISABLE_5X86_LSSER disables load store serialize (i.e., enables
115# reorder).  This option should not be used if you use memory mapped
116# I/O device(s).
117#
118# CPU_ELAN enables support for AMDs ElanSC520 CPU.
119#    CPU_ELAN_PPS enables precision timestamp code.
120#    CPU_ELAN_XTAL sets the clock crystal frequency in Hz.
121#
122# CPU_ENABLE_LONGRUN enables support for Transmeta Crusoe LongRun
123# technology which allows to restrict power consumption of the CPU by
124# using group of hw.crusoe.* sysctls.
125#
126# CPU_FASTER_5X86_FPU enables faster FPU exception handler.
127#
128# CPU_GEODE is for the SC1100 Geode embedded processor.  This option
129# is necessary because the i8254 timecounter is toast.
130#
131# CPU_I486_ON_386 enables CPU cache on i486 based CPU upgrade products
132# for i386 machines.
133#
134# CPU_IORT defines I/O clock delay time (NOTE 1).  Default values of
135# I/O clock delay time on Cyrix 5x86 and 6x86 are 0 and 7,respectively
136# (no clock delay).
137#
138# CPU_L2_LATENCY specifies the L2 cache latency value.  This option is used
139# only when CPU_PPRO2CELERON is defined and Mendocino Celeron is detected.
140# The default value is 5.
141#
142# CPU_LOOP_EN prevents flushing the prefetch buffer if the destination
143# of a jump is already present in the prefetch buffer on Cyrix 5x86(NOTE
144# 1).
145#
146# CPU_PPRO2CELERON enables L2 cache of Mendocino Celeron CPUs.  This option
147# is useful when you use Socket 8 to Socket 370 converter, because most Pentium
148# Pro BIOSs do not enable L2 cache of Mendocino Celeron CPUs.
149#
150# CPU_RSTK_EN enables return stack on Cyrix 5x86 (NOTE 1).
151#
152# CPU_SOEKRIS enables support www.soekris.com hardware.
153#
154# CPU_SUSP_HLT enables suspend on HALT.  If this option is set, CPU
155# enters suspend mode following execution of HALT instruction.
156#
157# CPU_UPGRADE_HW_CACHE eliminates unneeded cache flush instruction(s).
158#
159# CPU_WT_ALLOC enables write allocation on Cyrix 6x86/6x86MX and AMD
160# K5/K6/K6-2 CPUs.
161#
162# CYRIX_CACHE_WORKS enables CPU cache on Cyrix 486 CPUs with cache
163# flush at hold state.
164#
165# CYRIX_CACHE_REALLY_WORKS enables (1) CPU cache on Cyrix 486 CPUs
166# without cache flush at hold state, and (2) write-back CPU cache on
167# Cyrix 6x86 whose revision < 2.7 (NOTE 2).
168#
169# NO_F00F_HACK disables the hack that prevents Pentiums (and ONLY
170# Pentiums) from locking up when a LOCK CMPXCHG8B instruction is
171# executed.  This option is only needed if I586_CPU is also defined,
172# and should be included for any non-Pentium CPU that defines it.
173#
174# NO_MEMORY_HOLE is an optimisation for systems with AMD K6 processors
175# which indicates that the 15-16MB range is *definitely* not being
176# occupied by an ISA memory hole.
177#
178# NOTE 1: The options, CPU_BTB_EN, CPU_LOOP_EN, CPU_IORT,
179# CPU_LOOP_EN and CPU_RSTK_EN should not be used because of CPU bugs.
180# These options may crash your system.
181#
182# NOTE 2: If CYRIX_CACHE_REALLY_WORKS is not set, CPU cache is enabled
183# in write-through mode when revision < 2.7.  If revision of Cyrix
184# 6x86 >= 2.7, CPU cache is always enabled in write-back mode.
185#

187# locked cycles in order to operate correctly.

243# NETWORKING OPTIONS
244
245#
246# DEVICE_POLLING adds support for mixed interrupt-polling handling
247# of network device drivers, which has significant benefits in terms
248# of robustness to overloads and responsivity, as well as permitting
249# accurate scheduling of the CPU time between kernel network processing
250# and other activities.  The drawback is a moderate (up to 1/HZ seconds)
251# potential increase in response times.
252# It is strongly recommended to use HZ=1000 or 2000 with DEVICE_POLLING
253# to achieve smoother behaviour.
254# Additionally, you can enable/disable polling at runtime with help of
255# the ifconfig(8) utility, and select the CPU fraction reserved to
256# userland with the sysctl variable kern.polling.user_frac
257# (default 50, range 0..100).

312# This option breaks suspend/resume on some portables.
313#
314# AUTO_EOI_2 enables the `automatic EOI' feature for the slave 8259A
315# interrupt controller.  This saves about 0.7-1.25 usec for each interrupt.
316# Automatic EOI is documented not to work for for the slave with the

319#
320# MAXMEM specifies the amount of RAM on the machine; if this is not
321# specified, FreeBSD will first read the amount of memory from the CMOS
322# RAM, so the amount of memory will initially be limited to 64MB or 16MB
