tristate "Unix domain sockets"
---help---
If you say Y here, you will include support for Unix domain sockets;
sockets are the standard Unix mechanism for establishing and
accessing network connections. Many commonly used programs such as
the X Window system and syslog use these sockets even if your
machine is not connected to any network. Unless you are working on
an embedded system or something similar, you therefore definitely
want to say Y here.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be
called unix. Note that several important services won't work
correctly if you say M here and then neglect to load the module.
Say Y unless you know what you are doing.
config UNIX_DIAG
tristate "UNIX: socket monitoring interface"
depends on UNIX
default n
---help---
Support for UNIX socket monitoring interface used by the ss tool.
If unsure, say Y.

cpu/hotplug: Provide dynamic range for prepare stage
Mathieu reported that the LTTNG modules are broken as of 4.10-rc1 due to
the removal of the cpu hotplug notifiers.
Usually I don't care much about out of tree modules, but LTTNG is widely
used in distros. There are two ways to solve that:
1) Reserve a hotplug state for LTTNG
2) Add a dynamic range for the prepare states.
While #1 is the simplest solution, #2 is the proper one as we can convert
in tree users, which do not care about ordering, to the dynamic range as
well.
Add a dynamic range which allows LTTNG to request states in the prepare
stage.
