H. Peter Anvin | eb068e7 | 2012-11-28 11:50:23 -0800 | [diff] [blame] | 11 | This is the processor type of your CPU. This information is |
| 12 | used for optimizing purposes. In order to compile a kernel |
| 13 | that can run on all supported x86 CPU types (albeit not |
| 14 | optimally fast), you can specify "486" here. |
| 15 | |
| 16 | Note that the 386 is no longer supported, this includes |
| 17 | AMD/Cyrix/Intel 386DX/DXL/SL/SLC/SX, Cyrix/TI 486DLC/DLC2, |

| 20 | The kernel will not necessarily run on earlier architectures than |
| 21 | the one you have chosen, e.g. a Pentium optimized kernel will run on |

| 28 | (time stamp counter) register. |
| 29 | - "Pentium-Classic" for the Intel Pentium. |
| 30 | - "Pentium-MMX" for the Intel Pentium MMX. |
| 31 | - "Pentium-Pro" for the Intel Pentium Pro. |

| 33 | - "Pentium-III" for the Intel Pentium III or Coppermine Celeron. |
| 34 | - "Pentium-4" for the Intel Pentium 4 or P4-based Celeron. |
| 35 | - "K6" for the AMD K6, K6-II and K6-III (aka K6-3D). |
| 36 | - "Athlon" for the AMD K7 family (Athlon/Duron/Thunderbird). |
| 37 | - "Crusoe" for the Transmeta Crusoe series. |
