I've simplified this to:
Enable Resource Control support.
Provide support for the allocation and monitoring of system resources
usage by the CPU.
Intel calls this Intel Resource Director Technology
(Intel(R) RDT). More information about RDT can be found in the
Intel x86 Architecture Software Developer Manual.
AMD calls this AMD Platform Quality of Service (AMD QoS).
More information about AMD QoS can be found in the AMD64 Technology
Platform Quality of Service Extensions manual.
Say N if unsure.
