12 | bool "Support for PReP Residual Data" | |
13 | depends on PPC_PREP | |
14 | help | |
15 | Some PReP systems have residual data passed to the kernel by the | |
16 | firmware. This allows detection of memory size, devices present and | |
17 | other useful pieces of information. Sometimes this information is | |
18 | not present or incorrect, in which case it could lead to the machine | |
19 | behaving incorrectly. If this happens, either disable PREP_RESIDUAL | |
20 | or pass the 'noresidual' option to the kernel. | |
21 | ||
22 | If you are running a PReP system, say Y here, otherwise say N. | |

25 | bool "Support for reading of PReP Residual Data in /proc" | |
26 | depends on PREP_RESIDUAL && PROC_FS | |
27 | help | |
28 | Enabling this option will create a /proc/residual file which allows | |
29 | you to get at the residual data on PReP systems. You will need a tool | |
30 | (lsresidual) to parse it. If you aren't on a PReP system, you don't | |
31 | want this. |
