135	  The linux kernel is a kind of self-extracting executable.
136	  Several compression algorithms are available, which differ
137	  in efficiency, compression and decompression speed.
138	  Compression speed is only relevant when building a kernel.
139	  Decompression speed is relevant at each boot.
140
141	  If you have any problems with bzip2 or lzma compressed
142	  kernels, mail me (Alain Knaff) <alain@knaff.lu>. (An older
143	  version of this functionality (bzip2 only), for 2.4, was
144	  supplied by Christian Ludwig)

163	  Its compression ratio and speed is intermediate.
164	  Decompression speed is slowest among the choices.  The kernel
165	  size is about 10% smaller with bzip2, in comparison to gzip.
166	  Bzip2 uses a large amount of memory. For modern kernels you
167	  will need at least 8MB RAM or more for booting.

178	bool "XZ"

180	help
181	  XZ uses the LZMA2 algorithm and instruction set specific
182	  BCJ filters which can improve compression ratio of executable
183	  code. The size of the kernel is about 30% smaller with XZ in
184	  comparison to gzip. On architectures for which there is a BCJ
185	  filter (i386, x86_64, ARM, IA-64, PowerPC, and SPARC), XZ
186	  will create a few percent smaller kernel than plain LZMA.
187
188	  The speed is about the same as with LZMA: The decompression
189	  speed of XZ is better than that of bzip2 but worse than gzip
190	  and LZO. Compression is slow.

235	---help---
236	  Inter Process Communication is a suite of library functions and

238	  exchange information. It is generally considered to be a good thing,
239	  and some programs won't run unless you say Y here. In particular, if
240	  you want to run the DOS emulator dosemu under Linux (read the
241	  DOSEMU-HOWTO, available from <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>),
242	  you'll need to say Y here.
243

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

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

303	  This option enables the uselib syscall, a system call used in the
304	  dynamic linker from libc5 and earlier.  glibc does not use this
305	  system call.  If you intend to run programs built on libc5 or

1717	  This option allows you to force a module to unload, even if the
1718	  kernel believes it is unsafe: the kernel will remove the module
1719	  without waiting for anyone to stop using it (using the -f option to
1720	  rmmod).  This is mainly for kernel developers and desperate users.

1728	  compiled for different kernels, by adding enough information
1729	  to the modules to (hopefully) spot any changes which would

1741	  field inserted into their modinfo section, which contains a
1742    	  sum of the source files which made it.  This helps maintainers
1743	  see exactly which source was used to build a module (since
1744	  others sometimes change the module source without updating
