# SMP OPTIONS:
#
# The apic device enables the use of the I/O APIC for interrupt delivery.
# The apic device can be used in both UP and SMP kernels, but is required
# for SMP kernels. Thus, the apic device is not strictly an SMP option,
# but it is a prerequisite for SMP.
#
# Notes:
#
# Be sure to disable 'cpu I386_CPU' for SMP kernels.
#
# By default, mixed mode is used to route IRQ0 from the AT timer via
# the 8259A master PIC through the ExtINT pin on the first I/O APIC.
# This can be disabled via the NO_MIXED_MODE option. In that case,
# IRQ0 will be routed via an intpin on the first I/O APIC. Not all
# motherboards hook IRQ0 up to the first I/O APIC even though their
# MP table or MADT may claim to do so. That is why mixed mode is
# enabled by default.
#
# Optional:

#####################################################################
# NETWORKING OPTIONS
#
# DEVICE_POLLING adds support for mixed interrupt-polling handling
# of network device drivers, which has significant benefits in terms
# of robustness to overloads and responsivity, as well as permitting
# accurate scheduling of the CPU time between kernel network processing
# and other activities. The drawback is a moderate (up to 1/HZ seconds)
# potential increase in response times.
# It is strongly recommended to use HZ=1000 or 2000 with DEVICE_POLLING
# to achieve smoother behaviour.
# Additionally, you can enable/disable polling at runtime with the
# sysctl variable kern.polling.enable (defaults off), and select
# the CPU fraction reserved to userland with the sysctl variable
# kern.polling.user_frac (default 50, range 0..100).
#
# Only the "dc" "fxp" and "sis" devices support this mode of operation at
# the time of this writing.

# AUTO_EOI_1 enables the `automatic EOI' feature for the master 8259A
# interrupt controller. This saves about 0.7-1.25 usec for each interrupt.
# This option breaks suspend/resume on some portables.
#
# AUTO_EOI_2 enables the `automatic EOI' feature for the slave 8259A
# interrupt controller. This saves about 0.7-1.25 usec for each interrupt.
# Automatic EOI is documented not to work for for the slave with the
# original i8259A, but it works for some clones and some integrated
# versions.
#
# MAXMEM specifies the amount of RAM on the machine; if this is not
# specified, FreeBSD will first read the amount of memory from the CMOS
# RAM, so the amount of memory will initially be limited to 64MB or 16MB
# depending on the BIOS. If the BIOS reports 64MB, a memory probe will
# then attempt to detect the installed amount of RAM. If this probe
# fails to detect >64MB RAM you will have to use the MAXMEM option.
# The amount is in kilobytes, so for a machine with 128MB of RAM, it would
# be 131072 (128 * 1024).

# BROKEN_KEYBOARD_RESET disables the use of the keyboard controller to
# reset the CPU for reboot. This is needed on some systems with broken
# keyboard controllers.

# (the /usr/sbin/svr4 script does this for you). If compiling statically,
# the `streams' device must be configured into any kernel which also
# specifies COMPAT_SVR4. It is possible to have a statically-configured
# STREAMS device and a dynamically loadable svr4 emulator; the /usr/sbin/svr4
# script understands that it doesn't need to load the `streams' module under
# those circumstances.
# Caveat: At this time, `options KTRACE' is required for the svr4 emulator
