| 37 | ---help--- |
| 38 | Some of the various things that Linux supports (such as network |
| 39 | drivers, file systems, network protocols, etc.) can be in a state |
| 40 | of development where the functionality, stability, or the level of |
| 41 | testing is not yet high enough for general use. This is usually |
| 42 | known as the "alpha-test" phase among developers. If a feature is |
| 43 | currently in alpha-test, then the developers usually discourage |
| 44 | uninformed widespread use of this feature by the general public to |
| 45 | avoid "Why doesn't this work?" type mail messages. However, active |
| 46 | testing and use of these systems is welcomed. Just be aware that it |
| 47 | may not meet the normal level of reliability or it may fail to work |
| 48 | in some special cases. Detailed bug reports from people familiar |
| 49 | with the kernel internals are usually welcomed by the developers |
| 50 | (before submitting bug reports, please read the documents |
| 51 | <file:README>, <file:MAINTAINERS>, <file:REPORTING-BUGS>, |
| 52 | <file:Documentation/BUG-HUNTING>, and |
| 53 | <file:Documentation/oops-tracing.txt> in the kernel source). |
| 54 | |
| 55 | This option will also make obsoleted drivers available. These are |
| 56 | drivers that have been replaced by something else, and/or are |
| 57 | scheduled to be removed in a future kernel release. |
| 58 | |
| 59 | Unless you intend to help test and develop a feature or driver that |
| 60 | falls into this category, or you have a situation that requires |
| 61 | using these features, you should probably say N here, which will |
| 62 | cause the configurator to present you with fewer choices. If |
| 63 | you say Y here, you will be offered the choice of using features or |
| 64 | drivers that are currently considered to be in the alpha-test phase. |

Paul E. McKenney | c933664 | 2012-04-18 16:20:18 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 623 | This option specifies the real-time priority to which long-term |
| 624 | preempted RCU readers are to be boosted. If you are working |
| 625 | with a real-time application that has one or more CPU-bound |
| 626 | threads running at a real-time priority level, you should set |
| 627 | RCU_BOOST_PRIO to a priority higher then the highest-priority |
| 628 | real-time CPU-bound thread. The default RCU_BOOST_PRIO value |
| 629 | of 1 is appropriate in the common case, which is real-time |
| 630 | applications that do not have any CPU-bound threads. |
| 631 | |
| 632 | Some real-time applications might not have a single real-time |
| 633 | thread that saturates a given CPU, but instead might have |
| 634 | multiple real-time threads that, taken together, fully utilize |
| 635 | that CPU. In this case, you should set RCU_BOOST_PRIO to |
| 636 | a priority higher than the lowest-priority thread that is |
| 637 | conspiring to prevent the CPU from running any non-real-time |
| 638 | tasks. For example, if one thread at priority 10 and another |
| 639 | thread at priority 5 are between themselves fully consuming |
| 640 | the CPU time on a given CPU, then RCU_BOOST_PRIO should be |
| 641 | set to priority 6 or higher. |
