13 This is the processor type of your CPU. This information is used for
14 optimizing purposes. In order to compile a kernel that can run on
15 all x86 CPU types (albeit not optimally fast), you can specify
16 "386" here.
17
18 The kernel will not necessarily run on earlier architectures than
19 the one you have chosen, e.g. a Pentium optimized kernel will run on
20 a PPro, but not necessarily on a i486.
21
22 Here are the settings recommended for greatest speed:
23 - "386" for the AMD/Cyrix/Intel 386DX/DXL/SL/SLC/SX, Cyrix/TI
f7f17a67
DV
24 486DLC/DLC2, and UMC 486SX-S. Only "386" kernels will run on a 386
25 class machine.
96d55b88
PBG
26 - "486" for the AMD/Cyrix/IBM/Intel 486DX/DX2/DX4 or
27 SL/SLC/SLC2/SLC3/SX/SX2 and UMC U5D or U5S.
28 - "586" for generic Pentium CPUs lacking the TSC
29 (time stamp counter) register.
30 - "Pentium-Classic" for the Intel Pentium.
31 - "Pentium-MMX" for the Intel Pentium MMX.
32 - "Pentium-Pro" for the Intel Pentium Pro.
33 - "Pentium-II" for the Intel Pentium II or pre-Coppermine Celeron.
34 - "Pentium-III" for the Intel Pentium III or Coppermine Celeron.
35 - "Pentium-4" for the Intel Pentium 4 or P4-based Celeron.
36 - "K6" for the AMD K6, K6-II and K6-III (aka K6-3D).
37 - "Athlon" for the AMD K7 family (Athlon/Duron/Thunderbird).
38 - "Crusoe" for the Transmeta Crusoe series.
39 - "Efficeon" for the Transmeta Efficeon series.
40 - "Winchip-C6" for original IDT Winchip.
69d45dd1 41 - "Winchip-2" for IDT Winchips with 3dNow! capabilities.
96d55b88 42 - "GeodeGX1" for Geode GX1 (Cyrix MediaGX).
f90b8116 43 - "Geode GX/LX" For AMD Geode GX and LX processors.
96d55b88 44 - "CyrixIII/VIA C3" for VIA Cyrix III or VIA C3.
48a1204c 45 - "VIA C3-2" for VIA C3-2 "Nehemiah" (model 9 and above).
0949be35 46 - "VIA C7" for VIA C7.

326 memory operations to violate the x86 ordering standard in rare cases.
327 Enabling this option will attempt to work around some (but not all)
328 occurances of this problem, at the cost of much heavier spinlock and
329 memory barrier operations.

425 This enables detection, tunings and quirks for Intel processors
426
427 You need this enabled if you want your kernel to run on an
428 Intel CPU. Disabling this option on other types of CPUs
429 makes the kernel a tiny bit smaller. Disabling it on an Intel
430 CPU might render the kernel unbootable.

527 This adds a ptrace interface to the hardware's branch trace store.

529 Debuggers may use it to collect an execution trace of the debugged
530 application in order to answer the question 'how did I get here?'.
531 Debuggers may trace user mode as well as kernel mode.

533 Say Y unless there is no application development on this machine
534 and you want to save a small amount of code size.
