10	---help---
11	  This is the processor type of your CPU. This information is used for
12	  optimizing purposes. In order to compile a kernel that can run on
13	  all x86 CPU types (albeit not optimally fast), you can specify
14	  "386" here.
15
16	  The kernel will not necessarily run on earlier architectures than
17	  the one you have chosen, e.g. a Pentium optimized kernel will run on
18	  a PPro, but not necessarily on a i486.
19
20	  Here are the settings recommended for greatest speed:
21	  - "386" for the AMD/Cyrix/Intel 386DX/DXL/SL/SLC/SX, Cyrix/TI
22	  486DLC/DLC2, and UMC 486SX-S.  Only "386" kernels will run on a 386
23	  class machine.
24	  - "486" for the AMD/Cyrix/IBM/Intel 486DX/DX2/DX4 or
25	  SL/SLC/SLC2/SLC3/SX/SX2 and UMC U5D or U5S.
26	  - "586" for generic Pentium CPUs lacking the TSC
27	  (time stamp counter) register.
28	  - "Pentium-Classic" for the Intel Pentium.
29	  - "Pentium-MMX" for the Intel Pentium MMX.
30	  - "Pentium-Pro" for the Intel Pentium Pro.
31	  - "Pentium-II" for the Intel Pentium II or pre-Coppermine Celeron.
32	  - "Pentium-III" for the Intel Pentium III or Coppermine Celeron.
33	  - "Pentium-4" for the Intel Pentium 4 or P4-based Celeron.
34	  - "K6" for the AMD K6, K6-II and K6-III (aka K6-3D).
35	  - "Athlon" for the AMD K7 family (Athlon/Duron/Thunderbird).
36	  - "Crusoe" for the Transmeta Crusoe series.
37	  - "Efficeon" for the Transmeta Efficeon series.
38	  - "Winchip-C6" for original IDT Winchip.
39	  - "Winchip-2" for IDT Winchips with 3dNow! capabilities.
40	  - "GeodeGX1" for Geode GX1 (Cyrix MediaGX).
41	  - "Geode GX/LX" For AMD Geode GX and LX processors.
42	  - "CyrixIII/VIA C3" for VIA Cyrix III or VIA C3.
43	  - "VIA C3-2" for VIA C3-2 "Nehemiah" (model 9 and above).
44	  - "VIA C7" for VIA C7.
45
46	  If you don't know what to do, choose "386".

61	  Select this for an 586 or 686 series processor such as the AMD K5,
62	  the Cyrix 5x86, 6x86 and 6x86MX.  This choice does not
63	  assume the RDTSC (Read Time Stamp Counter) instruction.

89	depends on X86_32
90	---help---
91	  Select this for Intel chips based on the Pentium-II and
92	  pre-Coppermine Celeron core.  This option enables an unaligned

94	  tailored for the chip, and applies any applicable Pentium Pro
95	  optimizations.

225	bool "CyrixIII/VIA-C3"
226	depends on X86_32
227	---help---
228	  Select this for a Cyrix III or C3 chip.  Presently Linux and GCC
229	  treat this chip as a generic 586. Whilst the CPU is 686 class,
230	  it lacks the cmov extension which gcc assumes is present when
231	  generating 686 code.
232	  Note that Nehemiah (Model 9) and above will not boot with this
233	  kernel due to them lacking the 3DNow! instructions used in earlier
234	  incarnations of the CPU.
235
236config MVIAC3_2
237	bool "VIA C3-2 (Nehemiah)"
238	depends on X86_32
239	---help---
240	  Select this for a VIA C3 "Nehemiah". Selecting this enables usage
241	  of SSE and tells gcc to treat the CPU as a 686.
242	  Note, this kernel will not boot on older (pre model 9) C3s.

244config MVIAC7
245	bool "VIA C7"
246	depends on X86_32
247	---help---

254	---help---
255	  Optimize for Intel Pentium 4, Pentium D and older Nocona/Dempsey
256	  Xeon CPUs with Intel 64bit which is compatible with x86-64.
257	  Note that the latest Xeons (Xeon 51xx and 53xx) are not based on the
258	  Netburst core and shouldn't use this option. You can distinguish them
259	  using the cpu family field
260	  in /proc/cpuinfo. Family 15 is an older Xeon, Family 6 a newer one.
261
262config MCORE2
263	bool "Core 2/newer Xeon"
264	---help---
265
266	  Select this for Intel Core 2 and newer Core 2 Xeons (Xeon 51xx and
267	  53xx) CPUs. You can distinguish newer from older Xeons by the CPU
268	  family in /proc/cpuinfo. Newer ones have 6 and older ones 15

270
271config MATOM

276	  in-order pipelining architecture and thus can benefit from
277	  accordingly optimized code. Use a recent GCC with specific Atom
278	  support in order to fully benefit from selecting this option.
