help
There are four types of PowerPC chips supported. The more common
types (601, 603, 604, 740, 750, 7400), the Motorola embedded
versions (821, 823, 850, 855, 860, 52xx, 82xx, 83xx), the IBM embedded
versions (403 and 405) and the high end 64 bit Power processors
(POWER 3, POWER4, and IBM 970 also known as G5)
Unless you are building a kernel for one of the embedded processor
systems, 64 bit IBM RS/6000 or an Apple G5, choose 6xx.
Note that the kernel runs in 32-bit mode even on 64-bit chips.
Also note that because the 52xx, 82xx, & 83xx family has a 603e core,
specific support for that chipset is asked later on.

---help---
This option enables kernel support for larger than 32-bit physical
addresses. This features is not be available on all e500 cores.
If in doubt, say N here.
config ALTIVEC
bool "AltiVec Support"
depends on 6xx || POWER4
depends on !8260 && !83xx
---help---
This option enables kernel support for the Altivec extensions to the
PowerPC processor. The kernel currently supports saving and restoring
altivec registers, and turning on the 'altivec enable' bit so user
processes can execute altivec instructions.
This option is only usefully if you have a processor that supports
altivec (G4, otherwise known as 74xx series), but does not have
any affect on a non-altivec cpu (it does, however add code to the
kernel).
If in doubt, say Y here.
config SPE
bool "SPE Support"
depends on E200 || E500
---help---
This option enables kernel support for the Signal Processing
Extensions (SPE) to the PowerPC processor. The kernel currently
supports saving and restoring SPE registers, and turning on the
'spe enable' bit so user processes can execute SPE instructions.
This option is only useful if you have a processor that supports
SPE (e500, otherwise known as 85xx series), but does not have any
effect on a non-spe cpu (it does, however add code to the kernel).

config TAU
bool "Thermal Management Support"
depends on 6xx && !8260 && !83xx
help
G3 and G4 processors have an on-chip temperature sensor called the
'Thermal Assist Unit (TAU)', which, in theory, can measure the on-die
temperature within 2-4 degrees Celsius. This option shows the current
on-die temperature in /proc/cpuinfo if the cpu supports it.
Unfortunately, on some chip revisions, this sensor is very inaccurate
and in some cases, does not work at all, so don't assume the cpu
temp is actually what /proc/cpuinfo says it is.
config TAU_INT
bool "Interrupt driven TAU driver (DANGEROUS)"
depends on TAU
---help---
The TAU supports an interrupt driven mode which causes an interrupt
whenever the temperature goes out of range. This is the fastest way
to get notified the temp has exceeded a range. With this option off,
a timer is used to re-check the temperature periodically.
However, on some cpus it appears that the TAU interrupt hardware
is buggy and can cause a situation which would lead unexplained hard
lockups.
Unless you are extending the TAU driver, or enjoy kernel/hardware
debugging, leave this option off.
config TAU_AVERAGE
bool "Average high and low temp"
depends on TAU
---help---
The TAU hardware can compare the temperature to an upper and lower
bound. The default behavior is to show both the upper and lower
bound in /proc/cpuinfo. If the range is large, the temperature is
either changing a lot, or the TAU hardware is broken (likely on some
G4's). If the range is small (around 4 degrees), the temperature is
relatively stable. If you say Y here, a single temperature value,
halfway between the upper and lower bounds, will be reported in
/proc/cpuinfo.
If in doubt, say N here.
