   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
   58 # CPUS if needed.  Relies on the PREEMPTION option
   59 
   60 # Mandatory:

   80 # CPU OPTIONS
   81 
   82 #
   83 # You must specify at least one CPU (the one you intend to run on);
   84 # deleting the specification for CPUs you don't need to use may make
   85 # parts of the system run faster.
   86 #
   87 cpu             I486_CPU
   88 cpu             I586_CPU                # aka Pentium(tm)
   89 cpu             I686_CPU                # aka Pentium Pro(tm)
   90 
   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_DISABLE_CMPXCHG disables the CMPXCHG instruction on > i386 IA32
  119 # machines.  VmWare 3.x seems to emulate this instruction poorly, causing
  120 # the guest OS to run very slowly.  This problem appears to be fixed in
  121 # VmWare 4.x, at least in version 4.5.2, so that enabling this option with
  122 # VmWare 4.x will result in locking operations to be 20-30 times slower.
  123 # Enabling this with an SMP kernel will cause the kernel to be unusable.
  124 #
  125 # CPU_DISABLE_SSE explicitly prevents I686_CPU from turning on SSE.
  126 #
  127 # CPU_ELAN enables support for AMDs ElanSC520 CPU.
  128 #    CPU_ELAN_PPS enables precision timestamp code.
  129 #    CPU_ELAN_XTAL sets the clock crystal frequency in Hz.
  130 #
  131 # CPU_ENABLE_LONGRUN enables support for Transmeta Crusoe LongRun
  132 # technology which allows to restrict power consumption of the CPU by
  133 # using group of hw.crusoe.* sysctls.
  134 #
  135 # CPU_FASTER_5X86_FPU enables faster FPU exception handler.
  136 #
  137 # CPU_GEODE is for the SC1100 Geode embedded processor.  This option
  138 # is necessary because the i8254 timecounter is toast.
  139 #
  140 # CPU_I486_ON_386 enables CPU cache on i486 based CPU upgrade products
  141 # for i386 machines.
  142 #
  143 # CPU_IORT defines I/O clock delay time (NOTE 1).  Default values of
  144 # I/O clock delay time on Cyrix 5x86 and 6x86 are 0 and 7,respectively
  145 # (no clock delay).
  146 #
  147 # CPU_L2_LATENCY specifies the L2 cache latency value.  This option is used
  148 # only when CPU_PPRO2CELERON is defined and Mendocino Celeron is detected.
  149 # The default value is 5.
  150 #
  151 # CPU_LOOP_EN prevents flushing the prefetch buffer if the destination
  152 # of a jump is already present in the prefetch buffer on Cyrix 5x86(NOTE
  153 # 1).
  154 #
  155 # CPU_PPRO2CELERON enables L2 cache of Mendocino Celeron CPUs.  This option
  156 # is useful when you use Socket 8 to Socket 370 converter, because most Pentium
  157 # Pro BIOSs do not enable L2 cache of Mendocino Celeron CPUs.
  158 #
  159 # CPU_RSTK_EN enables return stack on Cyrix 5x86 (NOTE 1).
  160 #
  161 # CPU_SOEKRIS enables support www.soekris.com hardware.
  162 #
  163 # CPU_SUSP_HLT enables suspend on HALT.  If this option is set, CPU
  164 # enters suspend mode following execution of HALT instruction.
  165 #
  166 # CPU_UPGRADE_HW_CACHE eliminates unneeded cache flush instruction(s).
  167 #
  168 # CPU_WT_ALLOC enables write allocation on Cyrix 6x86/6x86MX and AMD
  169 # K5/K6/K6-2 CPUs.
  170 #
  171 # CYRIX_CACHE_WORKS enables CPU cache on Cyrix 486 CPUs with cache
  172 # flush at hold state.
  173 #
  174 # CYRIX_CACHE_REALLY_WORKS enables (1) CPU cache on Cyrix 486 CPUs
  175 # without cache flush at hold state, and (2) write-back CPU cache on
  176 # Cyrix 6x86 whose revision < 2.7 (NOTE 2).
  177 #
  178 # NO_F00F_HACK disables the hack that prevents Pentiums (and ONLY
  179 # Pentiums) from locking up when a LOCK CMPXCHG8B instruction is
  180 # executed.  This option is only needed if I586_CPU is also defined,
  181 # and should be included for any non-Pentium CPU that defines it.
  182 #
  183 # NO_MEMORY_HOLE is an optimisation for systems with AMD K6 processors
  184 # which indicates that the 15-16MB range is *definitely* not being
  185 # occupied by an ISA memory hole.
  186 #
  187 # NOTE 1: The options, CPU_BTB_EN, CPU_LOOP_EN, CPU_IORT,
  188 # CPU_LOOP_EN and CPU_RSTK_EN should not be used because of CPU bugs.
  189 # These options may crash your system.
  190 #
  191 # NOTE 2: If CYRIX_CACHE_REALLY_WORKS is not set, CPU cache is enabled
  192 # in write-through mode when revision < 2.7.  If revision of Cyrix
  193 # 6x86 >= 2.7, CPU cache is always enabled in write-back mode.
  194 #

  196 # locked cycles in order to operate correctly.

  254 # NETWORKING OPTIONS

  256 #
  257 # DEVICE_POLLING adds support for mixed interrupt-polling handling
  258 # of network device drivers, which has significant benefits in terms
  259 # of robustness to overloads and responsivity, as well as permitting
  260 # accurate scheduling of the CPU time between kernel network processing
  261 # and other activities.  The drawback is a moderate (up to 1/HZ seconds)
  262 # potential increase in response times.
  263 # It is strongly recommended to use HZ=1000 or 2000 with DEVICE_POLLING
  264 # to achieve smoother behaviour.
  265 # Additionally, you can enable/disable polling at runtime with help of
  266 # the ifconfig(8) utility, and select the CPU fraction reserved to

  859 #  that hooks into the ACPI layer.  The device is hooked to the PIIX4's
  860 #  General Device 10 decoder, which means you have to fiddle with PCI

  862 #  an ISA device.  At the moment, the driver polls, although the device
  863 #  is capable of generating interrupts.  It largely undocumented.
  864 #  The port location in the hint is where you WANT the device to be
