+ help
+ With this option enabled, the kernel will claim all OSS device
+ numbers if any OSS support (native or emulation) is enabled
+ whether the respective module is loaded or not and try to load the
+ appropriate module using sound-slot/service-* and char-major-*
+ module aliases when one of the device numbers is opened. With
+ this option disabled, kernel will only claim actually in-use
+ device numbers and opening a missing device will generate only the
+ standard char-major-* aliases.
+
+ The only visible difference is use of additional module aliases
+ and whether OSS sound devices appear multiple times in
+ /proc/devices. sound-slot/service-* module aliases are scheduled
+ to be removed (ie. PRECLAIM won't be available) and this option is
+ to make the transition easier. This option can be overridden
+ during boot using the kernel parameter soundcore.preclaim_oss.
+
+ Disabling this allows alternative OSS implementations.
+
+ Please read Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt for
+ details.
+
+ If unusre, say Y.

+ * the kernel in the meantime. If preclaim_oss is non-zero, the
+ * kernel will behave the same as before. All SOUND_MAJOR minors are
+ * preclaimed and the custom module aliases along with standard chrdev
+ * ones are emitted if a missing device is opened. If preclaim_oss is
+ * zero, sound_core only grabs what's actually in use and for missing
+ * devices only the standard chrdev aliases are requested.
+ *
+ * All these clutters are scheduled to be removed along with
