  23         ---help---
  24           Some of the various things that Linux supports (such as network
  25           drivers, file systems, network protocols, etc.) can be in a state
  26           of development where the functionality, stability, or the level of
  27           testing is not yet high enough for general use. This is usually
  28           known as the "alpha-test" phase among developers. If a feature is
  29           currently in alpha-test, then the developers usually discourage
  30           uninformed widespread use of this feature by the general public to
  31           avoid "Why doesn't this work?" type mail messages. However, active
  32           testing and use of these systems is welcomed. Just be aware that it
  33           may not meet the normal level of reliability or it may fail to work
  34           in some special cases. Detailed bug reports from people familiar
  35           with the kernel internals are usually welcomed by the developers
  36           (before submitting bug reports, please read the documents
  37           <file:README>, <file:MAINTAINERS>, <file:REPORTING-BUGS>,
  38           <file:Documentation/BUG-HUNTING>, and
  39           <file:Documentation/oops-tracing.txt> in the kernel source).
  40
  41           This option will also make obsoleted drivers available. These are
  42           drivers that have been replaced by something else, and/or are
  43           scheduled to be removed in a future kernel release.
  44
  45           Unless you intend to help test and develop a feature or driver that
  46           falls into this category, or you have a situation that requires
  47           using these features, you should probably say N here, which will
  48           cause the configurator to present you with fewer choices. If
  49           you say Y here, you will be offered the choice of using features or
  50           drivers that are currently considered to be in the alpha-test phase.

 139           POSIX variant of message queues is a part of IPC. In POSIX message
 140           queues every message has a priority which decides about succession
 141           of receiving it by a process. If you want to compile and run
 142           programs written e.g. for Solaris with use of its POSIX message
 143           queues (functions mq_*) say Y here.
 144
 145           POSIX message queues are visible as a filesystem called 'mqueue'
 146           and can be mounted somewhere if you want to do filesystem
 147           operations on message queues.

 156           information to a file: whenever a process exits, information about
 157           that process will be appended to the file by the kernel.  The
 158           information includes things such as creation time, owning user,
 159           command name, memory usage, controlling terminal etc. (the complete
 160           list is in the struct acct in <file:include/linux/acct.h>).  It is

 171           process and it's parent. Note that this file format is incompatible
 172           with previous v0/v1/v2 file formats, so you will need updated tools

 437           when you disable this, memory resource controller has no cares to
 438           usage of swap...a process can exhaust all of the swap. This extension
 439           is useful when you want to avoid exhaustion swap but this itself
 440           adds more overheads and consumes memory for remembering information.
 441           Especially if you use 32bit system or small memory system, please
 442           be careful about enabling this. When memory resource controller
 443           is disabled by boot option, this will be automatically disabled and
 444           there will be no overhead from this. Even when you set this config=y,

 824            SLUB is a slab allocator that minimizes cache line usage
 825            instead of managing queues of cached objects (SLAB approach).
 826            Per cpu caching is realized using slabs of objects instead
 827            of queues of objects. SLUB can use memory efficiently
 828            and has enhanced diagnostics. SLUB is the default choice for
 829            a slab allocator.

 887           Kernel modules are small pieces of compiled code which can
 888           be inserted in the running kernel, rather than being
 889           permanently built into the kernel.  You use the "modprobe"
 890           tool to add (and sometimes remove) them.  If you say Y here,
 891           many parts of the kernel can be built as modules (by
 892           answering M instead of Y where indicated): this is most
 893           useful for infrequently used options which are not required
 894           for booting.  For more information, see the man pages for
 895           modprobe, lsmod, modinfo, insmod and rmmod.
 896
 897           If you say Y here, you will need to run "make
 898           modules_install" to put the modules under /lib/modules/
 899           where modprobe can find them (you may need to be root to do

 938           to the modules to (hopefully) spot any changes which would

 948           see exactly which source was used to build a module (since
