13	bool "Prompt for development and/or incomplete code/drivers"
14	---help---
15	  Some of the various things that Linux supports (such as network
16	  drivers, file systems, network protocols, etc.) can be in a state
17	  of development where the functionality, stability, or the level of
18	  testing is not yet high enough for general use. This is usually
19	  known as the "alpha-test" phase among developers. If a feature is
20	  currently in alpha-test, then the developers usually discourage
21	  uninformed widespread use of this feature by the general public to
22	  avoid "Why doesn't this work?" type mail messages. However, active
23	  testing and use of these systems is welcomed. Just be aware that it
24	  may not meet the normal level of reliability or it may fail to work
25	  in some special cases. Detailed bug reports from people familiar
26	  with the kernel internals are usually welcomed by the developers
27	  (before submitting bug reports, please read the documents
28	  <file:README>, <file:MAINTAINERS>, <file:REPORTING-BUGS>,
29	  <file:Documentation/BUG-HUNTING>, and
30	  <file:Documentation/oops-tracing.txt> in the kernel source).
31
32	  This option will also make obsoleted drivers available. These are
33	  drivers that have been replaced by something else, and/or are
34	  scheduled to be removed in a future kernel release.
35
36	  Unless you intend to help test and develop a feature or driver that
37	  falls into this category, or you have a situation that requires
38	  using these features, you should probably say N here, which will
39	  cause the configurator to present you with fewer choices. If
40	  you say Y here, you will be offered the choice of using features or
41	  drivers that are currently considered to be in the alpha-test phase.

66	string "Local version - append to kernel release"
67	help
68	  Append an extra string to the end of your kernel version.
69	  This will show up when you type uname, for example.
70	  The string you set here will be appended after the contents of
71	  any files with a filename matching localversion* in your
72	  object and source tree, in that order.  Your total string can
73	  be a maximum of 64 characters.
74
75config LOCALVERSION_AUTO
76	bool "Automatically append version information to the version string"
77	default y
78	help
79	  This will try to automatically determine if the current tree is a
80	  release tree by looking for git tags that belong to the current
81	  top of tree revision.
82
83	  A string of the format -gxxxxxxxx will be added to the localversion
84	  if a git-based tree is found.  The string generated by this will be
85	  appended after any matching localversion* files, and after the value
86	  set in CONFIG_LOCALVERSION.
87
88	  (The actual string used here is the first eight characters produced
89	  by running the command:
90
91	    $ git rev-parse --verify HEAD

95config SWAP
96	bool "Support for paging of anonymous memory (swap)"
97	depends on MMU && BLOCK
98	default y
99	help
100	  This option allows you to choose whether you want to have support
101	  for so called swap devices or swap files in your kernel that are
102	  used to provide more virtual memory than the actual RAM present
103	  in your computer.  If unsure say Y.
104
105config SYSVIPC
106	bool "System V IPC"
107	---help---
108	  Inter Process Communication is a suite of library functions and
109	  system calls which let processes (running programs) synchronize and
110	  exchange information. It is generally considered to be a good thing,
111	  and some programs won't run unless you say Y here. In particular, if
112	  you want to run the DOS emulator dosemu under Linux (read the
113	  DOSEMU-HOWTO, available from <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>),
114	  you'll need to say Y here.
115
116	  You can find documentation about IPC with "info ipc" and also in

128	depends on NET && EXPERIMENTAL
129	---help---
130	  POSIX variant of message queues is a part of IPC. In POSIX message
131	  queues every message has a priority which decides about succession
132	  of receiving it by a process. If you want to compile and run
133	  programs written e.g. for Solaris with use of its POSIX message
134	  queues (functions mq_*) say Y here.
135
136	  POSIX message queues are visible as a filesystem called 'mqueue'
137	  and can be mounted somewhere if you want to do filesystem
138	  operations on message queues.
139
140	  If unsure, say Y.
141
142config BSD_PROCESS_ACCT
143	bool "BSD Process Accounting"
144	help
145	  If you say Y here, a user level program will be able to instruct the
146	  kernel (via a special system call) to write process accounting
147	  information to a file: whenever a process exits, information about
148	  that process will be appended to the file by the kernel.  The
149	  information includes things such as creation time, owning user,
150	  command name, memory usage, controlling terminal etc. (the complete
151	  list is in the struct acct in <file:include/linux/acct.h>).  It is
152	  up to the user level program to do useful things with this
153	  information.  This is generally a good idea, so say Y.

158	default n
159	help
160	  If you say Y here, the process accounting information is written
161	  in a new file format that also logs the process IDs of each
162	  process and it's parent. Note that this file format is incompatible
163	  with previous v0/v1/v2 file formats, so you will need updated tools
164	  for processing it. A preliminary version of these tools is available
165	  at <http://www.physik3.uni-rostock.de/tim/kernel/utils/acct/>.
166
167config TASKSTATS

171	help
172	  Export selected statistics for tasks/processes through the
173	  generic netlink interface. Unlike BSD process accounting, the
174	  statistics are available during the lifetime of tasks/processes as
175	  responses to commands. Like BSD accounting, they are sent to user
176	  space on task exit.
177
178	  Say N if unsure.
179
180config TASK_DELAY_ACCT

237config IKCONFIG
238	tristate "Kernel .config support"
239	---help---
240	  This option enables the complete Linux kernel ".config" file
241	  contents to be saved in the kernel. It provides documentation
242	  of which kernel options are used in a running kernel or in an
243	  on-disk kernel.  This information can be extracted from the kernel
244	  image file with the script scripts/extract-ikconfig and used as
245	  input to rebuild the current kernel or to build another kernel.

584	  The shmem is an internal filesystem used to manage shared memory.
585	  It is backed by swap and manages resource limits. It is also exported

626	   SLUB is a slab allocator that minimizes cache line usage
627	   instead of managing queues of cached objects (SLAB approach).
628	   Per cpu caching is realized using slabs of objects instead
629	   of queues of objects. SLUB can use memory efficiently

638	   scale well (single lock for all operations) and is also highly
639	   susceptible to fragmentation. SLUB can accomplish a higher object
640	   density. It is usually better to use SLUB instead of SLOB.

661	help
662	  Kernel modules are small pieces of compiled code which can
663	  be inserted in the running kernel, rather than being
664	  permanently built into the kernel.  You use the "modprobe"
665	  tool to add (and sometimes remove) them.  If you say Y here,
666	  many parts of the kernel can be built as modules (by
667	  answering M instead of Y where indicated): this is most
668	  useful for infrequently used options which are not required
669	  for booting.  For more information, see the man pages for
670	  modprobe, lsmod, modinfo, insmod and rmmod.
671
672	  If you say Y here, you will need to run "make
673	  modules_install" to put the modules under /lib/modules/
674	  where modprobe can find them (you may need to be root to do
675	  this).

682	help
683	  Without this option you will not be able to unload any
684	  modules (note that some modules may not be unloadable
685	  anyway), which makes your kernel slightly smaller and
686	  simpler.  If unsure, say Y.

691	help
692	  This option allows you to force a module to unload, even if the
693	  kernel believes it is unsafe: the kernel will remove the module
694	  without waiting for anyone to stop using it (using the -f option to
695	  rmmod).  This is mainly for kernel developers and desperate users.

702	  Usually, you have to use modules compiled with your kernel.
703	  Saying Y here makes it sometimes possible to use modules
704	  compiled for different kernels, by adding enough information
705	  to the modules to (hopefully) spot any changes which would
706	  make them incompatible with the kernel you are running.  If

713	  Modules which contain a MODULE_VERSION get an extra "srcversion"
714	  field inserted into their modinfo section, which contains a
715    	  sum of the source files which made it.  This helps maintainers
716	  see exactly which source was used to build a module (since
717	  others sometimes change the module source without updating
718	  the version).  With this option, such a "srcversion" field
719	  will be created for all modules.  If unsure, say N.
720
721config KMOD
722	bool "Automatic kernel module loading"
723	depends on MODULES
724	help
725	  Normally when you have selected some parts of the kernel to
726	  be created as kernel modules, you must load them (using the
727	  "modprobe" command) before you can use them. If you say Y
728	  here, some parts of the kernel will be able to load modules
729	  automatically: when a part of the kernel needs a module, it
730	  runs modprobe with the appropriate arguments, thereby
731	  loading the module if it is available.  If unsure, say Y.
