| 9 | Kprobes allows you to trap at almost any kernel address and | |
| 10 | execute a callback function. register_kprobe() establishes | |
| 11 | a probepoint and specifies the callback. Kprobes is useful | |
| 12 | for kernel debugging, non-intrusive instrumentation and testing. | |
| 13 | If in doubt, say "N". | |

| 23 | IA-64 identity-mapped regions use a large page size called "granules". | |
| 24 | ||
| 25 | Select "16MB" for a small granule size. | |
| 26 | Select "64MB" for a large granule size. This is the current default. | |

| 38 | Selecting this option prints more information for Illegal Dependency | |
| 39 | Faults, that is, for Read-after-Write (RAW), Write-after-Write (WAW), | |
| 40 | or Write-after-Read (WAR) violations. This option is ignored if you | |
| 41 | are compiling for an Itanium A step processor | |
| 42 | (CONFIG_ITANIUM_ASTEP_SPECIFIC). If you're unsure, select Y. | |

| 48 | The Virtual Hash Page Table (VHPT) enhances virtual address | |
| 49 | translation performance. Normally you want the VHPT active but you | |
| 50 | can select this option to disable the VHPT for debugging. If you're | |
| 51 | unsure, answer N. | |

| 57 | Selecting this option turns on bug checking for the IA-64 | |
| 58 | compare-and-exchange instructions. This is slow! Itaniums | |
| 59 | from step B3 or later don't have this problem. If you're unsure, | |
| 60 | select N. | |
