+ bool "Run under QEMU emulation"
+ depends on !ALPHA_GENERIC
+ ---help---
+ Assume the presence of special features supported by QEMU PALcode
+ that reduce the overhead of system emulation.
+
+ Generic kernels will auto-detect QEMU. But when building a
+ system-specific kernel, the assumption is that we want to
+ elimiate as many runtime tests as possible.
+
+ If unsure, say N.
