COMPAT_LINUX is the FreeBSD  Linux-compatibility
Layer.

With this option in the kernel FreeBSD will be able to
convert Linux Syscalls into FreeBSD syscalls , in
order to Run Linux Binary on FreeBSD (you'll need also
 the package Linux_Base in order to have a userland
support for Linux binaryes , such as libraries and so
on). You can safely omit this option , if you omit
this u can enable LINUX_COMPAT by kldloading the
kernel module "linux.ko"
