1da177e4 15 Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) support for
1c48aa36 16 Linux requires an ACPI-compliant platform (hardware/firmware),
1da177e4
LT
17 and assumes the presence of OS-directed configuration and power
18 management (OSPM) software. This option will enlarge your
19 kernel by about 70K.
20
21 Linux ACPI provides a robust functional replacement for several
22 legacy configuration and power management interfaces, including
23 the Plug-and-Play BIOS specification (PnP BIOS), the
24 MultiProcessor Specification (MPS), and the Advanced Power
25 Management (APM) specification. If both ACPI and APM support
1c48aa36 26 are configured, ACPI is used.
