24 # The apic device enables the use of the I/O APIC for interrupt delivery.
25 # The apic device can be used in both UP and SMP kernels, but is required
26 # for SMP kernels. Thus, the apic device is not strictly an SMP option,
27 # but it is a prerequisite for SMP.
31 # HTT CPUs should only be used if they are enabled in the BIOS. For
32 # the ACPI case, ACPI only correctly tells us about any HTT CPUs if
33 # they are enabled. However, most HTT systems do not list HTT CPUs
34 # in the MP Table if they are enabled, thus we guess at the HTT CPUs
35 # for the MP Table case. However, we shouldn't try to guess and use
36 # these CPUs if HTT is disabled. Thus, HTT guessing is only enabled
37 # for the MP Table if the user explicitly asks for it via the
38 # MPTABLE_FORCE_HTT option. Do NOT use this option if you have HTT
39 # disabled in your BIOS.

133 # The default value is 5.
135 # CPU_LOOP_EN prevents flushing the prefetch buffer if the destination
136 # of a jump is already present in the prefetch buffer on Cyrix 5x86(NOTE
139 # CPU_PPRO2CELERON enables L2 cache of Mendocino Celeron CPUs. This option
140 # is useful when you use Socket 8 to Socket 370 converter, because most Pentium
141 # Pro BIOSs do not enable L2 cache of Mendocino Celeron CPUs.

145 # CPU_SOEKRIS enables support www.soekris.com hardware.

159 # without cache flush at hold state, and (2) write-back CPU cache on
160 # Cyrix 6x86 whose revision < 2.7 (NOTE 2).
162 # NO_F00F_HACK disables the hack that prevents Pentiums (and ONLY
163 # Pentiums) from locking up when a LOCK CMPXCHG8B instruction is
164 # executed. This option is only needed if I586_CPU is also defined,
165 # and should be included for any non-Pentium CPU that defines it.

242 # of network device drivers, which has significant benefits in terms
243 # of robustness to overloads and responsivity, as well as permitting

245 # and other activities. The drawback is a moderate (up to 1/HZ seconds)
