Hello, all,

Could someone please help me to understand what these kernel options are
for?

What instructions? Relevant for which CPUs? (I have a 4000/60)
#options        NO_INSN_EMULATE # CPU does not lack some hardware instructions.

Then what is this, and what is the status? What is outputted to the status
LEDs?
# VAXstation diagnostic LED (experimental)
options         LEDS

And, finally, where would these instructions ever be used?
"Code to emulate the POLY{F,D,G,H} instructions is missing."

Thanks,
John
