+config SCIF
+ tristate "SCIF Driver"
+ depends on 64BIT && PCI && X86 && SCIF_BUS
+ help
+ This enables SCIF Driver support for the Intel Many Integrated
+ Core (MIC) family of PCIe form factor coprocessor devices that
+ run a 64 bit Linux OS. The Symmetric Communication Interface
+ (SCIF (pronounced as skiff)) is a low level communications API
+ across PCIe currently implemented for MIC.
+
+ If you are building a host kernel with an Intel MIC device then
+ say M (recommended) or Y, else say N. If unsure say N.
+
+ More information about the Intel MIC family as well as the Linux
+ OS and tools for MIC to use with this driver are available from
