Processor type and features
"Processor type"
 * default PA7000


 * Option: PA7000
 * Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
 * (on/off) "PA7000/PA7100"
 * 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 32-bit PA CPUs (albeit not optimally fast), you can specify "PA7000" here.
 * Specifying "PA8000" here will allow you to select a 64-bit kernel which is required on some machines.


 * Option: PA7100LC
 * Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
 * (on/off) "PA7100LC"
 * Select this option for the PCX-L processor, as used in the 712, 715/64, 715/80, 715/100, 715/100XC, 725/100, 743, 748, D200, D210, D300, D310 and E-class


 * Option: PA7200
 * Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
 * (on/off) "PA7200"
 * Select this option for the PCX-T' processor, as used in the C100, C110, J100, J110, J210XC, D250, D260, D350, D360, K100, K200, K210, K220, K400, K410 and K420


 * Option: PA7300LC
 * Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
 * (on/off) "PA7300LC"
 * Select this option for the PCX-L2 processor, as used in the 744, A180, B132L, B160L, B180L, C132L, C160L, C180L, D220, D230, D320 and D330.


 * Option: PA8X00
 * Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
 * (on/off) "PA8000 and up"
 * Select this option for PCX-U to PCX-W2 processors.


 * Define implied options from the CPU selection here

_bool y
 * Option: PA20
 * Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
 * depends on PA8X00

_bool y
 * Option: PA11
 * Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
 * depends on PA7000 || PA7100LC || PA7200 || PA7300LC

_bool y
 * Option: PREFETCH
 * Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
 * depends on PA8X00


 * Option: 64BIT
 * Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
 * (on/off) "64-bit kernel"
 * depends on PA8X00
 * Enable this if you want to support 64bit kernel on PA-RISC platform.
 * At the moment, only people willing to use more than 2GB of RAM, or having a 64bit-only capable PA-RISC machine should say Y here.
 * Since there is no 64bit userland on PA-RISC, there is no point to enable this option otherwise. The 64bit kernel is significantly bigger and slower than the 32bit one.


 * Option: SMP
 * Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
 * (on/off) "Symmetric multi-processing support"
 * This enables support for systems with more than one CPU. If you have a system with only one CPU, like most personal computers, say N. If you have a system with more than one CPU, say Y.
 * If you say N here, the kernel will run on single and multiprocessor machines, but will use only one CPU of a multiprocessor machine. If you say Y here, the kernel will run on many, but not all, singleprocessor machines. On a singleprocessor machine, the kernel will run faster if you say N here.
 * See also the ,  and the SMP-HOWTO available at .
 * If you don't know what to do here, say N.


 * Option: HOTPLUG_CPU
 * Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
 * (on/off)
 * default y if SMP
 * select HOTPLUG


 * Option: ARCH_DISCONTIGMEM_ENABLE
 * Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
 * (on/off) "Discontiguous memory support (EXPERIMENTAL)"
 * depends on 64BIT && EXPERIMENTAL
 * Say Y to support efficient handling of discontiguous physical memory, for architectures which are either NUMA (Non-Uniform Memory Access) or have huge holes in the physical address space for other reasons. See  for more.
