          instance in order to become a dial-in server.  If you say Y here,
          you will be asked for your specific card model in the next
          questions.  Make sure to read <file:Documentation/serial/stallion.txt>

          If you say Y here, the support for writing user messages (i.e.
          console messages) via printk is available.

          The feature is useful to inline user messages with kernel
          messages.
          In order to use this feature, you should output user messages
          to /dev/ttyprintk or redirect console to this TTY.

config BRIQ_PANEL

          The briQ is a small footprint CHRP computer with a frontpanel VFD, a
          tristate led and two switches. It is the size of a CDROM drive.

          If you have such one and want anything showing on the VFD then you
          must answer Y here.

          To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
          module will be called briq_panel.

          It's safe to say N here.

          If you say Y here, you will get support for a character device
          interface into the One Time Programmable memory pages that are
          stored on the Blackfin processor.  This will not get you access
          to the secure memory pages however.  You will need to write your
          own secure code and reader for that.

          To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
          will be called bfin-otp.

          If unsure, it is safe to say Y.

config BFIN_OTP_WRITE_ENABLE
        bool "Enable writing support of OTP pages"
        depends on BFIN_OTP
        default n
        help
          If you say Y here, you will enable support for writing of the
          OTP pages.  This is dangerous by nature as you can only program
          the pages once, so only enable this option when you actually
          need it so as to not inadvertently clobber data.

          If unsure, say N.

config PRINTER
        tristate "Parallel printer support"
        depends on PARPORT
        ---help---
          If you intend to attach a printer to the parallel port of your Linux
          box (as opposed to using a serial printer; if the connector at the
          printer has 9 or 25 holes ["female"], then it's serial), say Y.
          Also read the Printing-HOWTO, available from
          <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.

          It is possible to share one parallel port among several devices
          (e.g. printer and ZIP drive) and it is safe to compile the
          corresponding drivers into the kernel.

          To compile this driver as a module, choose M here and read
          <file:Documentation/parport.txt>.  The module will be called lp.

          If you have several parallel ports, you can specify which ports to
          use with the "lp" kernel command line option.  (Try "man bootparam"
          or see the documentation of your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about
          how to pass options to the kernel at boot time.)  The syntax of the
          "lp" command line option can be found in <file:drivers/char/lp.c>.

          If you have more than 8 printers, you need to increase the LP_NO
          macro in lp.c and the PARPORT_MAX macro in parport.h.

config LP_CONSOLE
        bool "Support for console on line printer"
        depends on PRINTER
        ---help---
          If you want kernel messages to be printed out as they occur, you
          can have a console on the printer. This option adds support for
          doing that; to actually get it to happen you need to pass the
          option "console=lp0" to the kernel at boot time.

          If the printer is out of paper (or off, or unplugged, or too
          busy..) the kernel will stall until the printer is ready again.
          By defining CONSOLE_LP_STRICT to 0 (at your own risk) you
          can make the kernel continue when this happens,
          but it'll lose the kernel messages.

          If unsure, say N.

config PPDEV
        tristate "Support for user-space parallel port device drivers"
        depends on PARPORT
        ---help---
          Saying Y to this adds support for /dev/parport device nodes.  This
          is needed for programs that want portable access to the parallel
          port, for instance deviceid (which displays Plug-and-Play device
          IDs).

          This is the parallel port equivalent of SCSI generic support (sg).
          It is safe to say N to this -- it is not needed for normal printing
          or parallel port CD-ROM/disk support.

          To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
          module will be called ppdev.

          If unsure, say N.

        help
          Virtio console for use with lguest and other hypervisors.

          Also serves as a general-purpose serial device for data
          transfer between the guest and host.  Character devices at
          /dev/vportNpn will be created when corresponding ports are
          found, where N is the device number and n is the port number
          within that device.  If specified by the host, a sysfs
          attribute called 'name' will be populated with a name for
          the port which can be used by udev scripts to create a
          symlink to the device.

config IBM_BSR
        tristate "IBM POWER Barrier Synchronization Register support"
        depends on PPC_PSERIES
        help
          This devices exposes a hardware mechanism for fast synchronization
          of threads across a large system which avoids bouncing a cacheline
          between several cores on a system

config DS1620
        tristate "NetWinder thermometer support"
        depends on ARCH_NETWINDER
        help
          Say Y here to include support for the thermal management hardware
          found in the NetWinder. This driver allows the user to control the
          temperature set points and to read the current temperature.

          It is also possible to say M here to build it as a module (ds1620)
          It is recommended to be used on a NetWinder, but it is not a
          necessity.

config NWBUTTON
        tristate "NetWinder Button"
        depends on ARCH_NETWINDER
        ---help---
          If you say Y here and create a character device node /dev/nwbutton
          with major and minor numbers 10 and 158 ("man mknod"), then every
          time the orange button is pressed a number of times, the number of
          times the button was pressed will be written to that device.

          This is most useful for applications, as yet unwritten, which
          perform actions based on how many times the button is pressed in a
          row.

          Do not hold the button down for too long, as the driver does not
          alter the behaviour of the hardware reset circuitry attached to the
          button; it will still execute a hard reset if the button is held
          down for longer than approximately five seconds.

          To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
          module will be called nwbutton.

          Most people will answer Y to this question and "Reboot Using Button"
          below to be able to initiate a system shutdown from the button.

config NWBUTTON_REBOOT
        bool "Reboot Using Button"
        depends on NWBUTTON
        help
          If you say Y here, then you will be able to initiate a system
          shutdown and reboot by pressing the orange button a number of times.
          The number of presses to initiate the shutdown is two by default,
          but this can be altered by modifying the value of NUM_PRESSES_REBOOT
          in nwbutton.h and recompiling the driver or, if you compile the
          driver as a module, you can specify the number of presses at load
          time with "insmod button reboot_count=<something>".

config NWFLASH
        tristate "NetWinder flash support"
        depends on ARCH_NETWINDER
        ---help---
          If you say Y here and create a character device /dev/flash with
          major 10 and minor 160 you can manipulate the flash ROM containing
          the NetWinder firmware. Be careful as accidentally overwriting the
          flash contents can render your computer unbootable. On no account
          allow random users access to this device. :-)

          To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
          module will be called nwflash.

          If you're not sure, say N.

config NVRAM
        tristate "/dev/nvram support"
        depends on ATARI || X86 || (ARM && RTC_DRV_CMOS) || GENERIC_NVRAM
        ---help---
          If you say Y here and create a character special file /dev/nvram
          with major number 10 and minor number 144 using mknod ("man mknod"),
          you get read and write access to the extra bytes of non-volatile
          memory in the real time clock (RTC), which is contained in every PC
          and most Ataris.  The actual number of bytes varies, depending on the
          nvram in the system, but is usually 114 (128-14 for the RTC).

          This memory is conventionally called "CMOS RAM" on PCs and "NVRAM"
          on Ataris. /dev/nvram may be used to view settings there, or to
          change them (with some utility). It could also be used to frequently
          save a few bits of very important data that may not be lost over
          power-off and for which writing to disk is too insecure. Note
          however that most NVRAM space in a PC belongs to the BIOS and you
          should NEVER idly tamper with it. See Ralf Brown's interrupt list
          for a guide to the use of CMOS bytes by your BIOS.

          On Atari machines, /dev/nvram is always configured and does not need
          to be selected.

          To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
          module will be called nvram.

        help
          Common support used (and needed) by scx200_gpio and
          pc8736x_gpio drivers.  If those drivers are built as
          modules, this one will be too, named nsc_gpio

config RAW_DRIVER
        tristate "RAW driver (/dev/raw/rawN)"
        depends on BLOCK
        help
          The raw driver permits block devices to be bound to /dev/raw/rawN.
          Once bound, I/O against /dev/raw/rawN uses efficient zero-copy I/O.
          See the raw(8) manpage for more details.

          Applications should preferably open the device (eg /dev/hda1)
          with the O_DIRECT flag.

config MAX_RAW_DEVS
        int "Maximum number of RAW devices to support (1-8192)"
        depends on RAW_DRIVER
        default "256"
        help
          The maximum number of RAW devices that are supported.
          Default is 256. Increase this number in case you need lots of
          raw devices.

config HPET
        bool "HPET - High Precision Event Timer" if (X86 || IA64)
        default n
        depends on ACPI
        help
          If you say Y here, you will have a miscdevice named "/dev/hpet/".  Each
          open selects one of the timers supported by the HPET.  The timers are
          non-periodic and/or periodic.

config HPET_MMAP
        bool "Allow mmap of HPET"
        default y
        depends on HPET
        help
          If you say Y here, user applications will be able to mmap
          the HPET registers.

          In some hardware implementations, the page containing HPET
          registers may also contain other things that shouldn't be
          exposed to the user.  If this applies to your hardware,
          say N here.

config HANGCHECK_TIMER
        tristate "Hangcheck timer"
        depends on X86 || IA64 || PPC64 || S390
        help
          The hangcheck-timer module detects when the system has gone
          out to lunch past a certain margin.  It can reboot the system
          or merely print a warning.

config MMTIMER
        tristate "MMTIMER Memory mapped RTC for SGI Altix"
        depends on IA64_GENERIC || IA64_SGI_SN2
        default y

config TELCLOCK
        tristate "Telecom clock driver for ATCA SBC"
        depends on EXPERIMENTAL && X86
        default n
        help
          The telecom clock device is specific to the MPCBL0010 and MPCBL0050
          ATCA computers and allows direct userspace access to the
          configuration of the telecom clock configuration settings.  This
          device is used for hardware synchronization across the ATCA backplane
          fabric.  Upon loading, the driver exports a sysfs directory,
          /sys/devices/platform/telco_clock, with a number of files for
          controlling the behavior of this hardware.

config DEVPORT

        depends on HAS_IOMEM
        default n
        help
          This enables panic and oops messages to be logged to a circular
          buffer in RAM where it can be read back at some later point.

config MSM_SMD_PKT
        bool "Enable device interface for some SMD packet ports"
        default n
