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  41           drivers that have been replaced by something else, and/or are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

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

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

 170           process and it's parent. Note that this file format is incompatible
 171           with previous v0/v1/v2 file formats, so you will need updated tools
 172           for processing it. A preliminary version of these tools is available

 840           This option allows loading of modules even if that would set the
 841           'F' (forced) taint, due to lack of version info.  Which is
 842           usually a really bad idea.

 844 config MODULE_UNLOAD
 845         bool "Module unloading"
 846         depends on MODULES
 847         help
 848           Without this option you will not be able to unload any
 849           modules (note that some modules may not be unloadable
 850           anyway), which makes your kernel slightly smaller and
 851           simpler.  If unsure, say Y.
 852
 853 config MODULE_FORCE_UNLOAD
 854         bool "Forced module unloading"
 855         depends on MODULE_UNLOAD && EXPERIMENTAL
 856         help
 857           This option allows you to force a module to unload, even if the
 858           kernel believes it is unsafe: the kernel will remove the module
 859           without waiting for anyone to stop using it (using the -f option to
 860           rmmod).  This is mainly for kernel developers and desperate users.
 861           If unsure, say N.

 866         help
 867           Usually, you have to use modules compiled with your kernel.
 868           Saying Y here makes it sometimes possible to use modules
 869           compiled for different kernels, by adding enough information
 870           to the modules to (hopefully) spot any changes which would
 871           make them incompatible with the kernel you are running.  If
 872           unsure, say N.

 874 config MODULE_SRCVERSION_ALL
 875         bool "Source checksum for all modules"
 876         depends on MODULES
 877         help
 878           Modules which contain a MODULE_VERSION get an extra "srcversion"
 879           field inserted into their modinfo section, which contains a
 880           sum of the source files which made it.  This helps maintainers
 881           see exactly which source was used to build a module (since
 882           others sometimes change the module source without updating
 883           the version).  With this option, such a "srcversion" field
 884           will be created for all modules.  If unsure, say N.

 886 config KMOD
 887         bool "Automatic kernel module loading"
 888         depends on MODULES
 889         help
 890           Normally when you have selected some parts of the kernel to
 891           be created as kernel modules, you must load them (using the
 892           "modprobe" command) before you can use them. If you say Y
 893           here, some parts of the kernel will be able to load modules
 894           automatically: when a part of the kernel needs a module, it
 895           runs modprobe with the appropriate arguments, thereby
 896           loading the module if it is available.  If unsure, say Y.

 914           designed for best read-side performance on non-realtime
 915           systems.  Classic RCU is the default.  Note that the
 916           PREEMPT_RCU symbol is used to select/deselect this option.
