+IP: virtual server support
+CONFIG_IP_VS
+  IP Virtual Server support will let you build a high-performance
+  virtual server based on cluster of two or more real servers. This
+  option must be enabled for at least one of the clustered computers
+  that will take care of intercepting incomming connections to a
+  single IP address and scheduling them to real servers.
+
+  Three request dispatching techniques are implemented, they are
+  virtual server via NAT, virtual server via tunneling and virtual
+  server via direct routing. The several scheduling algorithms can
+  be used to choose which server the connection is directed to,
+  thus load balancing can be achieved among the servers.  For more
+  information and its administration program, please visit the
+  following URL:
+	http://www.linuxvirtualserver.org/

+  Say Y here if you want to get additional messages useful in

+  level in /proc/sys/net/ipv4/vs/debug_level
+
+IPVS connection hash table size (the Nth power of 2)
+CONFIG_IP_VS_TAB_BITS
+  The IPVS connection hash table uses the chaining scheme to handle
+  hash collisions. Using a big IPVS connection hash table will greatly
+  reduce conflicts when there are hundreds of thousands of connections
+  in the hash table.
+
+  Note the table size must be power of 2. The table size will be the
+  value of 2 to the your input number power. The number to choose is
+  from 8 to 20, the default number is 12, which means the table size
+  is 4096. Don't input the number too small, otherwise you will lose
+  performance on it. You can adapt the table size yourself, according
+  to your virtual server application. It is good to set the table size
+  not far less than the number of connections per second multiplying
+  average lasting time of connection in the table.  For example, your
+  virtual server gets 200 connections per second, the connection lasts
+  for 200 seconds in average in the connection table, the table size
+  should be not far less than 200x200, it is good to set the table
+  size 32768 (2**15).
+
+  Another note that each connection occupies 128 bytes effectively and
+  each hash entry uses 8 bytes, so you can estimate how much memory is
+  needed for your box.
+
+IPVS: round-robin scheduling
+CONFIG_IP_VS_RR
+  The robin-robin scheduling algorithm simply directs network
+  connections to different real servers in a round-robin manner.

+  it as a module, say M here and read Documentation/modules.txt. If
+  unsure, say N.
+
+IPVS: weighted round-robin scheduling
+CONFIG_IP_VS_WRR
+  The weighted robin-robin scheduling algorithm directs network
+  connections to different real servers based on server weights
+  in a round-robin manner. Servers with higher weights receive
+  new connections first than those with less weights, and servers
+  with higher weights get more connections than those with less
+  weights and servers with equal weights get equal connections.
+
+  If you want to compile it in kernel, say Y. If you want to compile
+  it as a module, say M here and read Documentation/modules.txt. If
+  unsure, say N.
+
+IPVS: least-connection scheduling

+  The least-connection scheduling algorithm directs network
+  connections to the server with the least number of active 
+  connections.

+  If you want to compile it in kernel, say Y. If you want to compile
+  it as a module, say M here and read Documentation/modules.txt. If

+  it as a module, say M here and read Documentation/modules.txt. If
+  unsure, say N.
+
+IPVS: locality-based least-connection scheduling
+CONFIG_IP_VS_LBLC
+  The locality-based least-connection scheduling algorithm is for
+  destination IP load balancing. It is usually used in cache cluster.
+  This algorithm usually directs packet destined for an IP address to
+  its server if the server is alive and under load. If the server is
+  overloaded (its active connection numbers is larger than its weight)
+  and there is a server in its half load, then allocate the weighted
+  least-connection server to this IP address.
+
+  If you want to compile it in kernel, say Y. If you want to compile
+  it as a module, say M here and read Documentation/modules.txt. If
+  unsure, say N.
+
+IPVS: locality-based least-connection with replication scheduling
+CONFIG_IP_VS_LBLCR
+  The locality-based least-connection with replication scheduling
+  algorithm is also for destination IP load balancing. It is 
+  usually used in cache cluster. It differs from the LBLC scheduling
+  as follows: the load balancer maintains mappings from a target
+  to a set of server nodes that can serve the target. Requests for
+  a target are assigned to the least-connection node in the target's
+  server set. If all the node in the server set are over loaded,
+  it picks up a least-connection node in the cluster and adds it
+  in the sever set for the target. If the server set has not been
+  modified for the specified time, the most loaded node is removed
+  from the server set, in order to avoid high degree of replication.
+
+  If you want to compile it in kernel, say Y. If you want to compile
+  it as a module, say M here and read Documentation/modules.txt. If
+  unsure, say N.
+
+IPVS: destination hashing scheduling
+CONFIG_IP_VS_DH
+  The destination hashing scheduling algorithm assigns network
+  connections to the servers through looking up a statically assigned
+  hash table by their destination IP addresses.
+
+  If you want to compile it in kernel, say Y. If you want to compile
+  it as a module, say M here and read Documentation/modules.txt. If
+  unsure, say N.
+
+IPVS: source hashing scheduling

+  The source hashing scheduling algorithm assigns network
+  connections to the servers through looking up a statically assigned
+  hash table by their source IP addresses.
+
+  If you want to compile it in kernel, say Y. If you want to compile
+  it as a module, say M here and read Documentation/modules.txt. If
+  unsure, say N.
+
+IPVS: shortest expected delay scheduling
+CONFIG_IP_VS_SED
+  The shortest expected delay scheduling algorithm assigns network
+  connections to the server with the shortest expected delay. The 
+  expected delay that the job will experience is (Ci + 1) / Ui if 
+  sent to the ith server, in which Ci is the number of connections
+  on the the ith server and Ui is the fixed service rate (weight)
+  of the ith server.
+
+  If you want to compile it in kernel, say Y. If you want to compile
+  it as a module, say M here and read Documentation/modules.txt. If
+  unsure, say N.
+
+IPVS: never queue scheduling
+CONFIG_IP_VS_NQ
+  The never queue scheduling algorithm adopts a two-speed model.
+  When there is an idle server available, the job will be sent to
+  the idle server, instead of waiting for a fast one. When there
+  is no idle server available, the job will be sent to the server
+  that minimize its expected delay (The Shortest Expected Delay
+  scheduling algorithm).

+  it as a module, say M here and read Documentation/modules.txt. If
+  unsure, say N.
+
+IPVS: FTP protocol helper
+CONFIG_IP_VS_FTP
+  FTP is a protocol that transfers IP address and/or port number in
+  the payload. In the virtual server via Network Address Translation,
+  the IP address and port number of real servers cannot be sent to
+  clients in ftp connections directly, so FTP protocol helper is
+  required for tracking the connection and mangling it back to that of
+  virtual service.

+CONFIG_USB_GADGET
+  USB is a master/slave protocol, organized with one master
+  host (such as a PC) controlling up to 127 peripheral devices.
+  The USB hardware is asymmetric, which makes it easier to set up:
+  you can't connect two "to-the-host" connectors to each other.
+
+  Linux can run in the host, or in the peripheral.  In both cases
+  you need a low level bus controller driver, and some software
+  talking to it.  Peripheral controllers are often discrete silicon,
+  or are integrated with the CPU in a microcontroller.  The more
+  familiar host side controllers have names like like "EHCI", "OHCI",
+  or "UHCI", and are usually integrated into southbridges on PC
+  motherboards.
+
+  Enable this configuration option if you want to run Linux inside
+  a USB peripheral device.  Configure one hardware driver for your
+  peripheral/device side bus controller, and a "gadget driver" for
+  your peripheral protocol.  (If you use modular gadget drivers,
+  you may configure more than one.)
+
+  If in doubt, say "N" and don't enable these drivers; most people
+  don't have this kind of hardware (except maybe inside Linux PDAs).
+
+CONFIG_USB_NET2280
+  NetChip 2280 is a PCI based USB peripheral controller which
+  supports both full and high speed USB 2.0 data transfers.  
+           
+  It has six configurable endpoints, as well as endpoint zero
+  (for control transfers) and several endpoints with dedicated
+  functions.
+
+  Say "y" to link the driver statically, or "m" to build a
+  dynamically linked module called "net2280" and force all
+  gadget drivers to also be dynamically linked.
+
+CONFIG_USB_ZERO
+  Gadget Zero is a two-configuration device.  It either sinks and
+  sources bulk data; or it loops back a configurable number of
+  transfers.  It also implements control requests, for "chapter 9"
+  conformance.  The driver needs only two bulk-capable endpoints, so
+  it can work on top of most device-side usb controllers.  It's
+  useful for testing, and is also a working example showing how
+  USB "gadget drivers" can be written.
+
+  Make this be the first driver you try using on top of any new
+  USB peripheral controller driver.  Then you can use host-side
+  test software, like the "usbtest" driver, to put your hardware
+  and its driver through a basic set of functional tests.
+
+  Gadget Zero also works with the host-side "usb-skeleton" driver,
+  and with many kinds of host-side test software.  You may need
+  to tweak product and vendor IDs before host software knows about
+  this device, and arrange to select an appropriate configuration.
+
+  Say "y" to link the driver statically, or "m" to build a
+  dynamically linked module called "g_zero".
+
+CONFIG_USB_ETH
+  This driver implements Ethernet style communication, in either
+  of two ways:
+          
+   - The "Communication Device Class" (CDC) Ethernet Control Model.
+     That protocol is often avoided with pure Ethernet adapters, in
+     favor of simpler vendor-specific hardware, but is widely
+     supported by firmware for smart network devices.
+
+   - On hardware can't implement that protocol, a simpler approach
+     is used, placing fewer demands on USB.
+
+   Within the USB device, this gadget driver exposes a network device
+   "usbX", where X depends on what other networking devices you have.
+   Treat it like a two-node Ethernet link:  host, and gadget.
+

+  are not found in B1000, C3000, J5000, A500, L1000, N4000 and upwards.
+  If in doubt, say "Y".
+
+Wax I/O support
+CONFIG_GSC_WAX
+  Say Y here to support the Wax multifunction chip found in some
+  older systems, including B/C/D/R class and 715/64, 715/80 and
+  715/100.  Wax includes an EISA adapter, a serial port (not always
+  used), a HIL interface chip and is also known to be used as the
+  GSC bridge for an X.25 GSC card.
+
+GSCtoPCI/Dino PCI support
+CONFIG_GSC_DINO
+  Say Y here to support the Dino & Cujo GSC to PCI bridges found in
+  machines from the B132 to the C360, the J2240 and the A180.  Some
+  GSC/HSC cards (eg gigabit & dual 100 Mbit Ethernet) have a Dino on
+  the card, and you also need to say Y here if you have such a card.
+  Note that Dino also supplies one of the serial ports on certain
+  machines.  If in doubt, say Y.
+
+HPET timers
+CONFIG_HPET_TIMER
+  Use the IA-PC HPET (High Precision Event Timer) to manage
+  time in preference to the PIT and RTC, if a HPET is
+  present.  The HPET provides a stable time base on SMP
+  systems, unlike the RTC, but it is more expensive to access,
+  as it is off-chip.  You can find the HPET spec at
+  <http://www.intel.com/labs/platcomp/hpet/hpetspec.htm>.
+
+  If unsure, say Y.
+
+IOMMU support
+CONFIG_GART_IOMMU
+  Support the K8 IOMMU. Needed to run systems with more than 4GB of memory
+  properly with 32-bit PCI devices that do not support DAC (Double Address
+  Cycle). The IOMMU can be turned off at runtime with the iommu=off parameter.
+  Normally the kernel will take the right choice by itself.
+  If unsure say Y
+
+Debug __init statements
+CONFIG_INIT_DEBUG
+  Fill __init and __initdata at the end of boot. This helps debugging
+  invalid uses of __init and __initdata after initialization.	
+
+Force IOMMU to on
+CONFIG_IOMMU_DEBUG
+  Force the IOMMU to on even when you have less than 4GB of memory and add
+  debugging code.
+  Can be disabled at boot time with iommu=noforce.
+
+IOMMU leak tracing
+CONFIG_IOMMU_LEAK
+  Add a simple leak tracer to the IOMMU code. This is useful when you
+  are debugging a buggy device driver that leaks IOMMU mappings.
+
+pSeries Hypervisor Virtual Console support
+CONFIG_HVC_CONSOLE
+  pSeries machines when partitioned support a hypervisor virtual
+  console. This driver allows each pSeries partition to have a console
+  which is accessed via the HMC.
+
