  These kernels enable CONFIG_PREEMPT=y and CONFIG_PREEMPT_DYNAMIC=y allowing
  the kernel preemption model to be specified on the kernel command line
  with one of these options: preempt=none, preempt=voluntary, and preempt=full.
  Since there is no .config option to set a default, and the default in the
  kernel sources is "full" (which is probably not a good default), the
  kernel-source.SlackBuild has been modified to add support for an environment
  variable CONFIG_PREEMPT_DEFAULT_MODE which can be set to none, voluntary, or
  full to set the default kernel preemption model when a command line option
  is not provided. These kernels have been built with a preemption model of
  "none" (presumably the safest choice which will behave like the kernels we
  have shipped before.) The runtime overhead on 64-bit should be negligible.
  On 32-bit we lack support for HAVE_STATIC_CALL_INLINE, so spinlocks and
  mutexes will have to be approached through a trampoline, adding a very small
  amount of overhead. I feel this is probably worth it in order to have the
  option to run a kernel with voluntary or full preemption, especially for
  gaming or desktop purposes. The reduction in input lag with these modes is
  actually quite noticable.
  To check the current preemption model, you may use debugfs:
  mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug
  cat /sys/kernel/debug/sched/preempt
  (none) voluntary full
  You may change to a different preemption model on the fly once debugfs is
  mounted:
  echo voluntary > /sys/kernel/debug/sched/preempt
  cat /sys/kernel/debug/sched/preempt
  none (voluntary) full
  Thanks to Daedra.

# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. Line
# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. You must
# make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also
# customary to leave one space after the ':'.

%PACKAGE_NAME%:
%PACKAGE_NAME%: This is a Linux kernel with built-in support for most disk
%PACKAGE_NAME%: controllers. To use filesystems, or to load support for a SCSI or
%PACKAGE_NAME%: other controller, then you'll need to load one or more kernel
%PACKAGE_NAME%: modules using an initial ramdisk, or initrd. For more information
%PACKAGE_NAME%: about creating an initrd, see the README.initrd file in the /boot
%PACKAGE_NAME%: directory.
