+config M486
+ bool "486"
+ depends on X86_32
+ ---help---
+ This is the processor type of your CPU. This information is
+ used for optimizing purposes. In order to compile a kernel
+ that can run on all supported x86 CPU types (albeit not
+ optimally fast), you can specify "486" here.
+
+ Note that the 386 is no longer supported, this includes
+ AMD/Cyrix/Intel 386DX/DXL/SL/SLC/SX, Cyrix/TI 486DLC/DLC2,
+ UMC 486SX-S and the NexGen Nx586.
+
+ The kernel will not necessarily run on earlier architectures than
+ the one you have chosen, e.g. a Pentium optimized kernel will run on
+ a PPro, but not necessarily on a i486.
+
+ Here are the settings recommended for greatest speed:
+ - "486" for the AMD/Cyrix/IBM/Intel 486DX/DX2/DX4 or
+ SL/SLC/SLC2/SLC3/SX/SX2 and UMC U5D or U5S.
+ - "586" for generic Pentium CPUs lacking the TSC
+ (time stamp counter) register.
+ - "Pentium-Classic" for the Intel Pentium.
+ - "Pentium-MMX" for the Intel Pentium MMX.
+ - "Pentium-Pro" for the Intel Pentium Pro.
+ - "Pentium-II" for the Intel Pentium II or pre-Coppermine Celeron.
+ - "Pentium-III" for the Intel Pentium III or Coppermine Celeron.
+ - "Pentium-4" for the Intel Pentium 4 or P4-based Celeron.
+ - "K6" for the AMD K6, K6-II and K6-III (aka K6-3D).
+ - "Athlon" for the AMD K7 family (Athlon/Duron/Thunderbird).
+ - "Crusoe" for the Transmeta Crusoe series.
+ - "Efficeon" for the Transmeta Efficeon series.
+ - "Winchip-C6" for original IDT Winchip.
+ - "Winchip-2" for IDT Winchips with 3dNow! capabilities.
+ - "GeodeGX1" for Geode GX1 (Cyrix MediaGX).
+ - "Geode GX/LX" For AMD Geode GX and LX processors.
+ - "CyrixIII/VIA C3" for VIA Cyrix III or VIA C3.
+ - "VIA C3-2" for VIA C3-2 "Nehemiah" (model 9 and above).
+ - "VIA C7" for VIA C7.
+
+ If you don't know what to do, choose "486".

+config M586
+ bool "586/K5/5x86/6x86/6x86MX"

+ ---help---
+ Select this for an 586 or 686 series processor such as the AMD K5,
+ the Cyrix 5x86, 6x86 and 6x86MX. This choice does not
+ assume the RDTSC (Read Time Stamp Counter) instruction.
+
+config M586TSC
+ bool "Pentium-Classic"

+ ---help---
+ Select this for a Pentium Classic processor with the RDTSC (Read
+ Time Stamp Counter) instruction for benchmarking.
+
+config M586MMX

+ extended instructions.
+
+config M686
+ bool "Pentium-Pro"
+ depends on X86_32
+ ---help---
+ Select this for Intel Pentium Pro chips. This enables the use of

+ against the f00f bug found in earlier Pentiums.
+
+config MPENTIUMII
+ bool "Pentium-II/Celeron(pre-Coppermine)"
+ depends on X86_32
+ ---help---
+ Select this for Intel chips based on the Pentium-II and
+ pre-Coppermine Celeron core. This option enables an unaligned
+ copy optimization, compiles the kernel with optimization flags
+ tailored for the chip, and applies any applicable Pentium Pro
+ optimizations.
+
+config MPENTIUMIII
+ bool "Pentium-III/Celeron(Coppermine)/Pentium-III Xeon"
+ depends on X86_32
+ ---help---
+ Select this for Intel chips based on the Pentium-III and

+ extended prefetch instructions in addition to the Pentium II
+ extensions.
+
+config MPENTIUMM

+ ---help---
+ Select this for Intel Pentium 4 chips. This includes the
+ Pentium 4, Pentium D, P4-based Celeron and Xeon, and
+ Pentium-4 M (not Pentium M) chips. This option enables compile
+ flags optimized for the chip, uses the correct cache line size, and
+ applies any applicable optimizations.

+config MK6
+ bool "K6/K6-II/K6-III"
+ depends on X86_32
+ ---help---
+ Select this for an AMD K6-family processor. Enables use of

+ flags to GCC.
+
+config MK7
+ bool "Athlon/Duron/K7"
+ depends on X86_32
+ ---help---
+ Select this for an AMD Athlon K7-family processor. Enables use of

+
+config MK8
+ bool "Opteron/Athlon64/Hammer/K8"
+ ---help---
+ Select this for an AMD Opteron or Athlon64 Hammer-family processor.
+ Enables use of some extended instructions, and passes appropriate
+ optimization flags to GCC.
+
+config MCRUSOE
+ bool "Crusoe"
+ depends on X86_32
+ ---help---
+ Select this for a Transmeta Crusoe processor. Treats the processor
+ like a 586 with TSC, and sets some GCC optimization flags (like a
+ Pentium Pro with no alignment requirements).
+
+config MEFFICEON
+ bool "Efficeon"
+ depends on X86_32
+ ---help---
+ Select this for a Transmeta Efficeon processor.
+
+config MWINCHIPC6
+ bool "Winchip-C6"
+ depends on X86_32
+ ---help---
+ Select this for an IDT Winchip C6 chip. Linux and GCC
+ treat this chip as a 586TSC with some extended instructions
+ and alignment requirements.
+
+config MWINCHIP3D
+ bool "Winchip-2/Winchip-2A/Winchip-3"
+ depends on X86_32
+ ---help---
+ Select this for an IDT Winchip-2, 2A or 3. Linux and GCC
+ treat this chip as a 586TSC with some extended instructions
+ and alignment requirements. Also enable out of order memory
+ stores for this CPU, which can increase performance of some
+ operations.
+
+config MELAN
+ bool "AMD Elan"
+ depends on X86_32
+ ---help---
+ Select this for an AMD Elan processor.
+
+ Do not use this option for K6/Athlon/Opteron processors!

+ ---help---
+ Select this for AMD Geode GX and LX processors.
+
+config MCYRIXIII
+ bool "CyrixIII/VIA-C3"
+ depends on X86_32
+ ---help---
+ Select this for a Cyrix III or C3 chip. Presently Linux and GCC
+ treat this chip as a generic 586. Whilst the CPU is 686 class,
+ it lacks the cmov extension which gcc assumes is present when
+ generating 686 code.
+ Note that Nehemiah (Model 9) and above will not boot with this
+ kernel due to them lacking the 3DNow! instructions used in earlier
+ incarnations of the CPU.
+
+config MVIAC3_2
+ bool "VIA C3-2 (Nehemiah)"
+ depends on X86_32
+ ---help---
+ Select this for a VIA C3 "Nehemiah". Selecting this enables usage
+ of SSE and tells gcc to treat the CPU as a 686.
+ Note, this kernel will not boot on older (pre model 9) C3s.
+
+config MVIAC7
+ bool "VIA C7"
+ depends on X86_32
+ ---help---
+ Select this for a VIA C7. Selecting this uses the correct cache
+ shift and tells gcc to treat the CPU as a 686.
+
+config MPSC
+ bool "Intel P4 / older Netburst based Xeon"
+ depends on X86_64
+ ---help---
+ Optimize for Intel Pentium 4, Pentium D and older Nocona/Dempsey
+ Xeon CPUs with Intel 64bit which is compatible with x86-64.
+ Note that the latest Xeons (Xeon 51xx and 53xx) are not based on the
+ Netburst core and shouldn't use this option. You can distinguish them
+ using the cpu family field
+ in /proc/cpuinfo. Family 15 is an older Xeon, Family 6 a newer one.
+
+config MCORE2
+ bool "Core 2/newer Xeon"
+ ---help---
+
+ Select this for Intel Core 2 and newer Core 2 Xeons (Xeon 51xx and
+ 53xx) CPUs. You can distinguish newer from older Xeons by the CPU
+ family in /proc/cpuinfo. Newer ones have 6 and older ones 15
+ (not a typo)
+
+config MATOM
+ bool "Intel Atom"
+ ---help---
+
+ Select this for the Intel Atom platform. Intel Atom CPUs have an
+ in-order pipelining architecture and thus can benefit from
+ accordingly optimized code. Use a recent GCC with specific Atom
+ support in order to fully benefit from selecting this option.
+
+config GENERIC_CPU
+ bool "Generic-x86-64"
+ depends on X86_64
+ ---help---
+ Generic x86-64 CPU.
+ Run equally well on all x86-64 CPUs.

+ bool "Generic x86 support"
+ depends on X86_32
+ ---help---
+ Instead of just including optimizations for the selected
+ x86 variant (e.g. PII, Crusoe or Athlon), include some more
+ generic optimizations as well. This will make the kernel
+ perform better on x86 CPUs other than that selected.
