26# SMP OPTIONS:
27#
28# The apic device enables the use of the I/O APIC for interrupt delivery.
29# The apic device can be used in both UP and SMP kernels, but is required
30# for SMP kernels. Thus, the apic device is not strictly an SMP option,
31# but it is a prerequisite for SMP.
32#
33# Notes:
34#
35# By default, mixed mode is used to route IRQ0 from the AT timer via
36# the 8259A master PIC through the ExtINT pin on the first I/O APIC.
37# This can be disabled via the NO_MIXED_MODE option. In that case,
38# IRQ0 will be routed via an intpin on the first I/O APIC. Not all
39# motherboards hook IRQ0 up to the first I/O APIC even though their
40# MP table or MADT may claim to do so. That is why mixed mode is
41# enabled by default.

72# NETWORKING OPTIONS
73
74#
75# DEVICE_POLLING adds support for mixed interrupt-polling handling
76# of network device drivers, which has significant benefits in terms
77# of robustness to overloads and responsivity, as well as permitting
78# accurate scheduling of the CPU time between kernel network processing
79# and other activities. The drawback is a moderate (up to 1/HZ seconds)
80# potential increase in response times.
81# It is strongly recommended to use HZ=1000 or 2000 with DEVICE_POLLING
82# to achieve smoother behaviour.
83# Additionally, you can enable/disable polling at runtime with the
84# sysctl variable kern.polling.enable (defaults off), and select
85# the CPU fraction reserved to userland with the sysctl variable
86# kern.polling.user_frac (default 50, range 0..100).
87#
88# Not all device drivers support this mode of operation at the time of
89# this writing. See polling(4) for more details.
