169	  XZ uses the LZMA2 algorithm and instruction set specific
170	  BCJ filters which can improve compression ratio of executable
171	  code. The size of the kernel is about 30% smaller with XZ in
172	  comparison to gzip. On architectures for which there is a BCJ
173	  filter (i386, x86_64, ARM, IA-64, PowerPC, and SPARC), XZ
174	  will create a few percent smaller kernel than plain LZMA.
175
176	  The speed is about the same as with LZMA: The decompression

279	  If you say Y here, a user level program will be able to map
280	  file names to handle and then later use the handle for
281	  different file system operations. This is useful in implementing
282	  userspace file servers, which now track files using handles instead
283	  of names. The handle would remain the same even if file names

1835	  Kernel modules are small pieces of compiled code which can

1838	  tool to add (and sometimes remove) them.  If you say Y here,

1843	  modprobe, lsmod, modinfo, insmod and rmmod.
