- There are four families 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 AMCC
- embedded versions (403 and 405) and the high end 64 bit Power
- processors (POWER 3, POWER4, and IBM PPC970 also known as G5).
-
- This option is the catch-all for 6xx types, including some of the
- embedded versions. Unless there is see an option for the specific
- chip family you are using, you want this option.

- You do not want this if you are building a kernel for a 64 bit
- IBM RS/6000 or an Apple G5, choose 6xx.

- If unsure, select this option
+ There are five families of 32 bit PowerPC chips supported.
+ The most common ones are the desktop and server CPUs (601, 603,
+ 604, 740, 750, 74xx) CPUs from Freescale and IBM, with their
+ embedded 52xx/82xx/83xx/86xx counterparts.
+ The other embeeded parts, namely 4xx, 8xx, e200 (55xx) and e500
+ (85xx) each form a family of their own that is not compatible
+ with the others.
- Note that the kernel runs in 32-bit mode even on 64-bit chips.
+ If unsure, select 52xx/6xx/7xx/74xx/82xx/83xx/86xx.

+ help
+ Cause the compiler to optimize for the PPE of the Cell Broadband
+ Engine. This will make the code run considerably faster on Cell
+ but somewhat slower on other machines. This option only changes
+ the scheduling of instructions, not the selection of instructions
+ itself, so the resulting kernel will keep running on all other
+ machines. When building a kernel that is supposed to run only
+ on Cell, you should also select the POWER4_ONLY option.
