CONFIG_DEBUG_RWLOCK
Read-write spinlock debugging
If you say Y here then read-write lock processing will count how many
times it has tried to get the lock and issue an error message after
too many attempts. If you suspect a rwlock problem or a kernel
hacker asks for this option then say Y. Otherwise say N.
CONFIG_DEBUG_SEMAPHORE
Semaphore debugging
If you say Y here then semaphore processing will issue lots of
verbose debugging messages. If you suspect a semaphore problem or a
kernel hacker asks for this option then say Y. Otherwise say N.
AU1000 serial console
AU1000_SERIAL_CONSOLE
If you have an Alchemy AU1000 processor (MIPS based) and you want
to use a console on a serial port, say Y. Otherwise, say N.
AU1000 serial support
AU1000_UART
If you have an Alchemy AU1000 processor (MIPS based) and you want
to use serial ports, say Y. Otherwise, say N.
AU1000 ethernet controller on SGI MIPS system
MIPS_AU1000_ENET
If you have an Alchemy Semi AU1000 ethernet controller
on an SGI MIPS system, say Y. Otherwise, say N.
WD93 SCSI Controller on SGI MIPS system
SGIWD93_SCSI
If you have a Western Digital WD93 SCSI controller on
an SGI MIPS system, say Y. Otherwise, say N.
IA64_GRANULE_16MB
Physical memory granularity (16 MB)
IA64 identity-mapped regions use a large page size. We'll call such
large pages "granules". If you can think of a better name that's
unambiguous, let us know... Unless your identity-mapped regions are
very large, select a granule size of 16MB.
IA64_GRANULE_64MB
Physical memory granularity (64 MB)
IA64 identity-mapped regions use a large page size. We'll call such
large pages "granules". If you can think of a better name that's
unambiguous, let us know... Unless your identity-mapped regions are
very large, select a granule size of 16MB.
IA64_SGI_SN_DEBUG
Enable SGI SN extra debugging code
Turns on extra debugging code in the SGI SN (Scalable NUMA) platform
for IA64. Unless you are debugging problems on an SGI SN IA64 box,
say N.
IA64_SGI_SN_SIM
Enable SGI Medusa Simulator Support
If you are compiling a kernel that will run under SGI's IA64
simulator (Medusa) then say Y, otherwise say N.
CONFIG_PCIBA
PCIBA Support
IRIX PCIBA-inspired user mode PCI interface for the SGI SN (Scalable
NUMA) platform for IA64. Unless you are compiling a kernel for an
SGI SN IA64 box, say N.
SERIAL_SGI_L1_PROTOCOL
Enable protocol mode for the L1 console
Uses protocol mode instead of raw mode for the level 1 console on the
SGI SN (Scalable NUMA) platform for IA64. If you are compiling for
an SGI SN box then Y is the recommended value, otherwise say N.
