- help
- Say Y here if you want the PCI core to spawn a new thread for
- every PCI device that is probed. This can cause a huge
- speedup in boot times on multiprocessor machines, and even a
- smaller speedup on single processor machines.
-
- But it can also cause lots of bad things to happen. A number
- of PCI drivers cannot properly handle running in this way,
- some will just not work properly at all, while others might
- decide to blow up power supplies with a huge load all at once,
- so use this option at your own risk.
-
- It is very unwise to use this option if you are not using a
- boot process that can handle devices being created in any
- order. A program that can create persistent block and network
- device names (like udev) is a good idea if you wish to use
- this option.
-
- Again, use this option at your own risk, you have been warned!
-
- When in doubt, say N.
