228 This enables support for systems with more than one CPU. If you have
229 a system with only one CPU, like most personal computers, say N. If
230 you have a system with more than one CPU, say Y.
231
232 If you say N here, the kernel will run on single and multiprocessor
233 machines, but will use only one CPU of a multiprocessor machine. If
234 you say Y here, the kernel will run on many, but not all,
235 singleprocessor machines. On a singleprocessor machine, the kernel
236 will run faster if you say N here.
237
238 Note that if you say Y here and choose architecture "586" or
239 "Pentium" under "Processor family", the kernel will not work on 486
240 architectures. Similarly, multiprocessor kernels for the "PPro"
241 architecture may not work on all Pentium based boards.
242
243 People using multiprocessor machines who say Y here should also say
244 Y to "Enhanced Real Time Clock Support", below. The "Advanced Power
245 Management" code will be disabled if you say Y here.

616 your system. An IOMMU is a hardware component which provides
617 remapping of DMA memory accesses from devices. With an AMD IOMMU you
618 can isolate the the DMA memory of different devices and protect the
619 system from misbehaving device drivers or hardware.
620
621 You can find out if your system has an AMD IOMMU if you look into
622 your BIOS for an option to enable it or if you have an IVRS ACPI
623 table.

Stefan Assmann41b9eb22008-07-15 13:48:55 +0200738 This option enables a workaround that fixes a source of
739 spurious interrupts. This is recommended when threaded
740 interrupt handling is used on systems where the generation of
741 superfluous "boot interrupts" cannot be disabled.
742
743 Some chipsets generate a legacy INTx "boot IRQ" when the IRQ
744 entry in the chipset's IO-APIC is masked (as, e.g. the RT
745 kernel does during interrupt handling). On chipsets where this
746 boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps
747 the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot
748 IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the
749 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this
750 way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise
751 the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring
752 down (vital) interrupt lines.
753
754 Only affects "broken" chipsets. Interrupt sharing may be
755 increased on these systems.

760 Machine Check Exception support allows the processor to notify the
761 kernel if it detects a problem (e.g. overheating, component failure).
762 The action the kernel takes depends on the severity of the problem,
763 ranging from a warning message on the console, to halting the machine.
764 Your processor must be a Pentium or newer to support this - check the
765 flags in /proc/cpuinfo for mce. Note that some older Pentium systems
766 have a design flaw which leads to false MCE events - hence MCE is
767 disabled on all P5 processors, unless explicitly enabled with "mce"
768 as a boot argument. Similarly, if MCE is built in and creates a
769 problem on some new non-standard machine, you can boot with "nomce"
770 to disable it. MCE support simply ignores non-MCE processors like
771 the 386 and 486, so nearly everyone can say Y here.

953 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
954 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
955 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
956 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
957 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
958 "high memory".
959
960 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
961 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
962 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
963 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
964 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
965 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
966 possible.
967
968 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
969 answer "4GB" here.
970
971 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
972 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
973 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully
974 supported by Linux, PAE mode is implemented on all recent Intel
975 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
976 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
977
978 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be
979 auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option
980 such as "mem=256M". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of
981 your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the
982 kernel at boot time.)
983
984 If unsure, say "off".

1010
1011 If the address range available to the kernel is less than the
1012 physical memory installed, the remaining memory will be available
1013 as "high memory". Accessing high memory is a little more costly
1014 than low memory, as it needs to be mapped into the kernel first.
1015 Note that increasing the kernel address space limits the range
1016 available to user programs, making the address space there
1017 tighter. Selecting anything other than the default 3G/1G split
1018 will also likely make your kernel incompatible with binary-only

1254 prompt "Math emulation" if X86_32
1255 ---help---
1256 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
1257 operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
1258 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
1259 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
1260 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
1261 coprocessor or this emulation.
1262
1263 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1264 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1265 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1266 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1267 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1268 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1269 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1270 intend to use this kernel on different machines.
1271
1272 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
1273 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.
1274
1275 If you are not sure, say Y; apart from resulting in a 66 KB bigger
1276 kernel, it won't hurt.

1278config MTRR
1279 bool "MTRR (Memory Type Range Register) support"
1280 ---help---
1281 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1282 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1283 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1284 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1285 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1286 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1287 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1288 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1289 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1290
1291 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1292 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1293 as well:
1294
1295 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1296 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1297 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1298 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1299 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1300 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1301 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1302
1303 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1304 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1305 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1306
1307 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1308 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1456 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
1457 bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and
1458 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
1459 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1460 address.
1461
1462 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1463 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1464 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1465 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1466 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1467 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1468 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1469 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
1470
1471 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump, leave
1472 the value here unchanged to 0x100000 and set CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.
1473 Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux for capturing the crash dump
1474 change this value to start of the reserved region (Typically 16MB
1475 0x1000000). In other words, it can be set based on the "X" value as
1476 specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM" command line boot parameter
1477 passed to the panic-ed kernel. Typically this parameter is set as
1478 crashkernel=64M@16M. Please take a look at
1479 Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt for more details about crash dumps.
1480
1481 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1482 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1483 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1484 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1485 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1486 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the

1634 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
1635 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
1636 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
1637 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
1638 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
1639 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
1640
1641 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
1642 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
1643
1644 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
1645 machines with more than one CPU.
1646
1647 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
Randy Dunlap53471122008-03-12 18:10:51 -04001648 and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/pm.txt> and the
Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01001649 Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
1650 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
1651
1652 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
1653 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
1654 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
1655
1656 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
1657 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
1658 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
1659 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
1660
1661 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
1662 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
1663 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
1664 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
1665 APM in your BIOS).
1666
1667 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
1668 "weird" problems:
1669
1670 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
1671 enabled.
1672 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
1673 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
1674 the "no387" option to the kernel
1675 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
1676 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1677 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1678 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1679 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1680 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1681 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
1682 10) install a better fan for the CPU
1683 11) exchange RAM chips
1684 12) exchange the motherboard.
1685
1686 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
1687 module will be called apm.

1702 specification: "When disabled, the APM BIOS does not automatically
1703 power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend
1704 State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
1705 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
1706 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
1707 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
1708 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
1709 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
1710 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
1711 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba
1712 T400CDT. This is off by default since most machines do fine without
1713 this feature.

1733 when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
1734 do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
1735 option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your

1787 If you choose "Any", the kernel will try MMCONFIG, then the

Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01001923 MicroChannel Architecture is found in some IBM PS/2 machines and
1924 laptops. It is a bus system similar to PCI or ISA. See
1925 <file:Documentation/mca.txt> (and especially the web page given
1926 there) before attempting to build an MCA bus kernel.

Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01001933 This provides basic support for National Semiconductor's
1934 (now AMD's) Geode processors. The driver probes for the
1935 PCI-IDs of several on-chip devices, so its a good dependency
1936 for other scx200_* drivers.
1937
1938 If compiled as a module, the driver is named scx200.

Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01001945 This driver provides a clocksource built upon the on-chip
1946 27MHz high-resolution timer. Its also a workaround for
1947 NSC Geode SC-1100's buggy TSC, which loses time when the
1948 processor goes idle (as is done by the scheduler). The
1949 other workaround is idle=poll boot option.

Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01001956 This driver provides a clock event source based on the MFGPT
1957 timer(s) in the CS5535 and CS5536 companion chip for the geode.
1958 MFGPTs have a better resolution and max interval than the
1959 generic PIT, and are suitable for use as high-res timers.
