  1. config PREP_RESIDUAL
  2. bool "Support for PReP Residual Data"
  3. depends on PPC_PREP
  4. help
  5. Some PReP systems have residual data passed to the kernel by the
  6. firmware. This allows detection of memory size, devices present and
  7. other useful pieces of information. Sometimes this information is
  8. not present or incorrect, in which case it could lead to the machine
  9. behaving incorrectly. If this happens, either disable PREP_RESIDUAL
  10. or pass the 'noresidual' option to the kernel.
  11. If you are running a PReP system, say Y here, otherwise say N.
  12. config PROC_PREPRESIDUAL
  13. bool "Support for reading of PReP Residual Data in /proc"
  14. depends on PREP_RESIDUAL && PROC_FS
  15. help
  16. Enabling this option will create a /proc/residual file which allows
  17. you to get at the residual data on PReP systems. You will need a tool
  18. (lsresidual) to parse it. If you aren't on a PReP system, you don't
  19. want this.
