+
+auto_msgmni:
+
+Enables/Disables automatic recomputing of msgmni upon memory add/remove or
+upon ipc namespace creation/removal (see the msgmni description above).
+Echoing "1" into this file enables msgmni automatic recomputing.
+Echoing "0" turns it off.
+auto_msgmni default value is 1.
+
+==============================================================
+
+nmi_watchdog:
+
+Enables/Disables the NMI watchdog on x86 systems. When the value is non-zero
+the NMI watchdog is enabled and will continuously test all online cpus to
+determine whether or not they are still functioning properly. Currently,
+passing "nmi_watchdog=" parameter at boot time is required for this function
+to work.
+
+If LAPIC NMI watchdog method is in use (nmi_watchdog=2 kernel parameter), the
+NMI watchdog shares registers with oprofile. By disabling the NMI watchdog,
+oprofile may have more registers to utilize.
+
+==============================================================
+
+unknown_nmi_panic:
+
+The value in this file affects behavior of handling NMI. When the value is
+non-zero, unknown NMI is trapped and then panic occurs. At that time, kernel
+debugging information is displayed on console.
+
+NMI switch that most IA32 servers have fires unknown NMI up, for example.
+If a system hangs up, try pressing the NMI switch.
+
+==============================================================
+
+panic_on_unrecovered_nmi:
+
+The default Linux behaviour on an NMI of either memory or unknown is to continue
+operation. For many environments such as scientific computing it is preferable
+that the box is taken out and the error dealt with than an uncorrected
+parity/ECC error get propogated.
+
+A small number of systems do generate NMI's for bizarre random reasons such as
+power management so the default is off. That sysctl works like the existing
+panic controls already in that directory.
