120	  The linux kernel is a kind of self-extracting executable.
121	  Several compression algorithms are available, which differ

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

208	---help---
209	  Inter Process Communication is a suite of library functions and

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

254	  file names to handle and then later use the handle for
255	  different file system operations. This is useful in implementing
256	  userspace file servers, which now track files using handles instead
257	  of names. The handle would remain the same even if file names

293	  The config option toggles if a task setting its loginuid requires
294	  CAP_SYS_AUDITCONTROL or if that task should require no special permissions
295	  but should instead only allow setting its loginuid if it was never
296	  previously set.  On systems which use systemd or a similar central
297	  process to restart login services this should be set to true.  On older
298	  systems in which an admin would typically have to directly stop and
299	  start processes this should be set to false.  Setting this to true allows
300	  one to drop potentially dangerous capabilites from the login tasks,
301	  but may not be backwards compatible with older init systems.

1682	help
1683	  This option allows you to force a module to unload, even if the
1684	  kernel believes it is unsafe: the kernel will remove the module
1685	  without waiting for anyone to stop using it (using the -f option to
1686	  rmmod).  This is mainly for kernel developers and desperate users.

1692	  Usually, you have to use modules compiled with your kernel.
1693	  Saying Y here makes it sometimes possible to use modules
1694	  compiled for different kernels, by adding enough information
1695	  to the modules to (hopefully) spot any changes which would
1696	  make them incompatible with the kernel you are running.  If

1702	  Modules which contain a MODULE_VERSION get an extra "srcversion"
1703	  field inserted into their modinfo section, which contains a
1704    	  sum of the source files which made it.  This helps maintainers
1705	  see exactly which source was used to build a module (since
1706	  others sometimes change the module source without updating
1707	  the version).  With this option, such a "srcversion" field
1708	  will be created for all modules.  If unsure, say N.
