CONFIG_IA64_SGI_AUTOTEST
Build a kernel used for hardware validation. If you include the
keyword "autotest" on the boot command line, the kernel does NOT boot.
Instead, it starts all cpus and runs cache coherency tests instead.
If unsure, say N.
CONFIG_IA64_SGI_SN_DEBUG
Turns on extra debugging code in the SGI SN (Scalable NUMA) platform
for IA64. Unless you are debugging problems on an SGI SN IA64 box,
say N.
CONFIG_IA64_SGI_SN_SIM
If you are compiling a kernel that will run under SGI's IA64
simulator (Medusa) then say Y, otherwise say N.
CONFIG_SERIAL_SGI_L1_PROTOCOL
Uses protocol mode instead of raw mode for the level 1 console on the
SGI SN (Scalable NUMA) platform for IA64. If you are compiling for
an SGI SN box then Y is the recommended value, otherwise say N.
CONFIG_PCIBA
