	bool "Prompt for development and/or incomplete code/drivers"
	---help---
	  Some of the various things that Linux supports (such as network
	  drivers, file systems, network protocols, etc.) can be in a state
	  of development where the functionality, stability, or the level of
	  testing is not yet high enough for general use. This is usually
	  known as the "alpha-test" phase among developers. If a feature is
	  currently in alpha-test, then the developers usually discourage
	  uninformed widespread use of this feature by the general public to
	  avoid "Why doesn't this work?" type mail messages. However, active
	  testing and use of these systems is welcomed. Just be aware that it
	  may not meet the normal level of reliability or it may fail to work
	  in some special cases. Detailed bug reports from people familiar
	  with the kernel internals are usually welcomed by the developers
	  (before submitting bug reports, please read the documents
	  <file:README>, <file:MAINTAINERS>, <file:REPORTING-BUGS>,
	  <file:Documentation/BUG-HUNTING>, and
	  <file:Documentation/oops-tracing.txt> in the kernel source).

	  This option will also make obsoleted drivers available. These are
	  drivers that have been replaced by something else, and/or are
	  scheduled to be removed in a future kernel release.

	  Unless you intend to help test and develop a feature or driver that
	  falls into this category, or you have a situation that requires
	  using these features, you should probably say N here, which will
	  cause the configurator to present you with fewer choices. If
	  you say Y here, you will be offered the choice of using features or
	  drivers that are currently considered to be in the alpha-test phase.

config LOCALVERSION
	string "Local version - append to kernel release"
	help
	  Append an extra string to the end of your kernel version.
	  This will show up when you type uname, for example.
	  The string you set here will be appended after the contents of
	  any files with a filename matching localversion* in your
	  object and source tree, in that order.  Your total string can
	  be a maximum of 64 characters.

config LOCALVERSION_AUTO

	  A string of the format -gxxxxxxxx will be added to the localversion
	  if a git-based tree is found.  The string generated by this will be
	  appended after any matching localversion* files, and after the value
	  set in CONFIG_LOCALVERSION.

	help
	  The linux kernel is a kind of self-extracting executable.
	  Several compression algorithms are available, which differ
	  in efficiency, compression and decompression speed.
	  Compression speed is only relevant when building a kernel.
	  Decompression speed is relevant at each boot.

	  If you have any problems with bzip2 or lzma compressed
	  kernels, mail me (Alain Knaff) <alain@knaff.lu>. (An older
	  version of this functionality (bzip2 only), for 2.4, was
	  supplied by Christian Ludwig)

	  High compression options are mostly useful for users, who
	  are low on disk space (embedded systems), but for whom ram
	  size matters less.

	  If in doubt, select 'gzip'

config KERNEL_GZIP
	bool "Gzip"
	depends on HAVE_KERNEL_GZIP
	help
	  The old and tried gzip compression. It provides a good balance
	  between compression ratio and decompression speed.

config KERNEL_BZIP2
	bool "Bzip2"
	depends on HAVE_KERNEL_BZIP2
	help
	  Its compression ratio and speed is intermediate.
	  Decompression speed is slowest among the three.  The kernel
	  size is about 10% smaller with bzip2, in comparison to gzip.
	  Bzip2 uses a large amount of memory. For modern kernels you
	  will need at least 8MB RAM or more for booting.

config KERNEL_LZMA
	bool "LZMA"
	depends on HAVE_KERNEL_LZMA
	help
	  The most recent compression algorithm.
	  Its ratio is best, decompression speed is between the other
	  two. Compression is slowest.	The kernel size is about 33%
	  smaller with LZMA in comparison to gzip.

config KERNEL_XZ
	bool "XZ"
	depends on HAVE_KERNEL_XZ
	help
	  XZ uses the LZMA2 algorithm and instruction set specific
	  BCJ filters which can improve compression ratio of executable
	  code. The size of the kernel is about 30% smaller with XZ in
	  comparison to gzip. On architectures for which there is a BCJ
	  filter (i386, x86_64, ARM, IA-64, PowerPC, and SPARC), XZ
	  will create a few percent smaller kernel than plain LZMA.

	  The speed is about the same as with LZMA: The decompression
	  speed of XZ is better than that of bzip2 but worse than gzip
	  and LZO. Compression is slow.

config KERNEL_LZO
	bool "LZO"
	depends on HAVE_KERNEL_LZO
	help
	  Its compression ratio is the poorest among the 4. The kernel
	  size is about 10% bigger than gzip; however its speed
	  (both compression and decompression) is the fastest.

config SYSVIPC
	bool "System V IPC"
	---help---
	  Inter Process Communication is a suite of library functions and
	  system calls which let processes (running programs) synchronize and
	  exchange information. It is generally considered to be a good thing,
	  and some programs won't run unless you say Y here. In particular, if
	  you want to run the DOS emulator dosemu under Linux (read the
	  DOSEMU-HOWTO, available from <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>),

	  POSIX variant of message queues is a part of IPC. In POSIX message
	  queues every message has a priority which decides about succession
	  of receiving it by a process. If you want to compile and run
	  programs written e.g. for Solaris with use of its POSIX message
	  queues (functions mq_*) say Y here.

	  POSIX message queues are visible as a filesystem called 'mqueue'

config BSD_PROCESS_ACCT
	bool "BSD Process Accounting"
	help
	  If you say Y here, a user level program will be able to instruct the
	  kernel (via a special system call) to write process accounting
	  information to a file: whenever a process exits, information about
	  that process will be appended to the file by the kernel.  The
	  information includes things such as creation time, owning user,
	  command name, memory usage, controlling terminal etc. (the complete
	  list is in the struct acct in <file:include/linux/acct.h>).  It is
	  up to the user level program to do useful things with this
	  information.  This is generally a good idea, so say Y.

config BSD_PROCESS_ACCT_V3
	bool "BSD Process Accounting version 3 file format"
	depends on BSD_PROCESS_ACCT
	default n
	help
	  If you say Y here, the process accounting information is written
	  in a new file format that also logs the process IDs of each
	  process and it's parent. Note that this file format is incompatible
	  with previous v0/v1/v2 file formats, so you will need updated tools
	  for processing it. A preliminary version of these tools is available
	  at <http://www.gnu.org/software/acct/>.

config FHANDLE
	bool "open by fhandle syscalls"
	select EXPORTFS
	help
	  If you say Y here, a user level program will be able to map
	  file names to handle and then later use the handle for
	  different file system operations. This is useful in implementing
	  userspace file servers, which now track files using handles instead
	  of names. The handle would remain the same even if file names
	  get renamed. Enables open_by_handle_at(2) and name_to_handle_at(2)
	  syscalls.

config TASKSTATS
	bool "Export task/process statistics through netlink (EXPERIMENTAL)"
	depends on NET
	default n
	help
	  Export selected statistics for tasks/processes through the
	  generic netlink interface. Unlike BSD process accounting, the
	  statistics are available during the lifetime of tasks/processes as
	  responses to commands. Like BSD accounting, they are sent to user
	  space on task exit.

	  Say N if unsure.

config TASK_DELAY_ACCT

	depends on TASKSTATS
	help
	  Collect information on time spent by a task waiting for system
	  resources like cpu, synchronous block I/O completion and swapping
	  in pages. Such statistics can help in setting a task's priorities
	  relative to other tasks for cpu, io, rss limits etc.

	  Say N if unsure.

config TASK_XACCT

	  Enable kernel support for various performance events provided

	  Software events are supported either built-in or via the

	  Most modern CPUs support performance events via performance

	  types of hw events: such as instructions executed, cachemisses
	  suffered, or branches mis-predicted - without slowing down the
	  kernel or applications. These registers can also trigger interrupts
	  when a threshold number of events have passed - and can thus be
	  used to profile the code that runs on that CPU.

	  The Linux Performance Event subsystem provides an abstraction of
	  these software and hardware event capabilities, available via a

	  This is taken advantage of by uClibc's malloc(), and also by
	  ELF-FDPIC binfmt's brk and stack allocator.

	  Because of the obvious security issues, this option should only be
	  enabled on embedded devices where you control what is run in
