-config PREEMPT
- bool "Preemptible Kernel"
- ---help---
- This option reduces the latency of the kernel when reacting to
- real-time or interactive events by allowing a low priority process to
- be preempted even if it is in kernel mode executing a system call.
- This allows applications to run more reliably even when the system is
- under load. On contrary it may also break your drivers and add
- priority inheritance problems to your system. Don't select it if
- you rely on a stable system or have slightly obscure hardware.
- It's also not very well tested on x86-64 currently.
- You have been warned.
-
- Say Y here if you are feeling brave and building a kernel for a
- desktop, embedded or real-time system. Say N if you are unsure.

- Support the K8 IOMMU. Needed to run systems with more than 4GB of memory
+ Support the IOMMU. Needed to run systems with more than 3GB of memory
properly with 32-bit PCI devices that do not support DAC (Double Address
Cycle). The IOMMU can be turned off at runtime with the iommu=off parameter.
Normally the kernel will take the right choice by itself.
+ This option includes a driver for the AMD Opteron/Athlon64 IOMMU
+ and a software emulation used on some other systems.
If unsure, say Y.
# need this always enabled with GART_IOMMU for the VIA workaround
Additional support for intel specific MCE features such as
the thermal monitor.

+config KEXEC
+ bool "kexec system call (EXPERIMENTAL)"
+ depends on EXPERIMENTAL
+ help
+ kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your
+ current kernel, and to start another kernel. It is like a reboot
+ but it is indepedent of the system firmware. And like a reboot
+ you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.
+
+ The name comes from the similiarity to the exec system call.
+
+ It is an ongoing process to be certain the hardware in a machine
+ is properly shutdown, so do not be surprised if this code does not
+ initially work for you. It may help to enable device hotplugging
+ support. As of this writing the exact hardware interface is
+ strongly in flux, so no good recommendation can be made.
