# # PCI configuration # config PCI_MSI bool "Message Signaled Interrupts (MSI and MSI-X)" depends on PCI depends on (X86_LOCAL_APIC && X86_IO_APIC) || IA64 help This allows device drivers to enable MSI (Message Signaled Interrupts). Message Signaled Interrupts enable a device to generate an interrupt using an inbound Memory Write on its PCI bus instead of asserting a device IRQ pin. If you don't know what to do here, say N. config PCI_LEGACY_PROC bool "Legacy /proc/pci interface" depends on PCI ---help--- This feature enables a procfs file -- /proc/pci -- that provides a summary of PCI devices in the system. This feature has been deprecated as of v2.5.53, in favor of using the tool lspci(8).
