Plug and Play support

configname: CONFIG_PNP

Linux Kernel Configuration
└─>Device Drivers
└─>Plug and Play support
In linux kernel since version 2.6.20 (release Date: 2007-02-04)  
Plug and Play (PnP) is a standard for peripherals which allows those
peripherals to be configured by software, e.g. assign IRQ's or other
parameters. No jumpers on the cards are needed, instead the values
are provided to the cards from the BIOS, from the operating system,
or using a user-space utility.

Say Y here if you would like Linux to configure your Plug and Play
devices. You should then also say Y to all of the protocols below.
Alternatively, you can say N here and configure your PnP devices
using user space utilities such as the isapnptools package.

If unsure, say Y.
