Subject: [PATCH v2 3/4] configure: Improve TCI feature description
Date: Fri, 22 Jan 2021 11:58:35 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210122105836.1878506-4-philmd@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210122105836.1878506-1-philmd@redhat.com>
Users might want to enable all features, without realizing some
features have negative effect. Mention the TCI feature is slow
and experimental, hoping it will be selected knowingly.
Suggested-by: Thomas Huth <thuth@redhat.com>
