| depends on (X86_LOCAL_APIC && X86_IO_APIC) || IA64 | |
| default n | |
| help | |
| This allows device drivers to enable MSI (Message Signaled | |
| Interrupts). Message Signaled Interrupts enable a device to | |
| generate an interrupt using an inbound Memory Write on its | |
| PCI bus instead of asserting a device IRQ pin. | |
| If you don't know what to do here, say N. | |
| config PCI_LEGACY_PROC | |
| bool "Legacy /proc/pci interface" | |
| depends on PCI | |
| ---help--- | |
| This feature enables a procfs file -- /proc/pci -- that provides a | |
| summary of PCI devices in the system. | |
| This feature has been deprecated as of v2.5.53, in favor of using the | |
| tool lspci(8). This feature may be removed at a future date. | |
| lspci can provide the same data, as well as much more. lspci is a part of | |
| the pci-utils package, which should be installed by your distribution. | |
| See <file:Documentation/Changes> for information on where to get the latest | |
| version. | |
| When in doubt, say N. | |
| config PCI_NAMES | |
| bool "PCI device name database" | |
| depends on PCI | |
| ---help--- | |
| By default, the kernel contains a database of all known PCI device | |
| names to make the information in /proc/pci, /proc/ioports and | |
| similar files comprehensible to the user. | |
| This database increases size of the kernel image by about 80KB. This | |
| memory is freed after the system boots up if CONFIG_HOTPLUG is not set. | |
| Anyway, if you are building an installation floppy or kernel for an | |
| embedded system where kernel image size really matters, you can disable | |
| this feature and you'll get device ID numbers instead of names. | |
| When in doubt, say Y. | |
