It's a deprecated option to enable built-in CPU mining for the bitcoin client. It is extremely slow, and it's only solo mining (no pool). It was useful back in the day when difficulty for a block was 1, but with GPU and ASIC being hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands or more times faster and more efficient than a CPU, it is entirely unwise to even enable this option.
