| help |
| This option controls whether tracing thread support is compiled |
| into UML. Normally, this should be set to Y. If you intend to |
| use only skas mode (and the host has the skas patch applied to it), |
| then it is OK to say N here. |
| |
| config STATIC_LINK |
| bool "Force a static link" |
| default n |
| depends on !MODE_TT |
| help |
| If CONFIG_MODE_TT is disabled, then this option gives you the ability |
| to force a static link of UML. Normally, if only skas mode is built |
| in to UML, it will be linked as a shared binary. This is inconvenient |
| for use in a chroot jail. So, if you intend to run UML inside a |
| chroot, and you disable CONFIG_MODE_TT, you probably want to say Y |
| here. |

| help |
| This is needed when the host on which you run has a 2G/2G memory |
| split, instead of the customary 3G/1G. |
| |
| Note that to enable such a host |
| configuration, which makes sense only in some cases, you need special |
| host patches. |
| |
| So, if you do not know what to do here, say 'N'. |

| config KERNEL_HALF_GIGS |

| This determines the amount of address space that UML will allocate for |
| its own, measured in half Gigabyte units. The default is 1. |
| Change this only if you need to boot UML with an unusually large amount |
| of physical memory. |
| |
| config MODE_SKAS |
| bool "Separate Kernel Address Space support" |
| default y |
| help |
| This option controls whether skas (separate kernel address space) |
| support is compiled in. If you have applied the skas patch to the |
| host, then you certainly want to say Y here (and consider saying N |
| to CONFIG_MODE_TT). Otherwise, it is safe to say Y. Disabling this |
| option will shrink the UML binary slightly. |

| config NET |
| bool "Networking support" |
| help |
| Unless you really know what you are doing, you should say Y here. |
| The reason is that some programs need kernel networking support even |
| when running on a stand-alone machine that isn't connected to any |
| other computer. If you are upgrading from an older kernel, you |
| should consider updating your networking tools too because changes |
| in the kernel and the tools often go hand in hand. The tools are |
| contained in the package net-tools, the location and version number |
| of which are given in <file:Documentation/Changes>. |
| |
| For a general introduction to Linux networking, it is highly |
| recommended to read the NET-HOWTO, available from |
| <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. |

| config HOSTFS |
| tristate "Host filesystem" |
| help |
| While the User-Mode Linux port uses its own root file system for |
| booting and normal file access, this module lets the UML user |
| access files stored on the host. It does not require any |
| network connection between the Host and UML. An example use of |
| this might be: |
| |
| mount none /tmp/fromhost -t hostfs -o /tmp/umlshare |
| |
| where /tmp/fromhost is an empty directory inside UML and |
| /tmp/umlshare is a directory on the host with files the UML user |
| wishes to access. |
| |
| For more information, see |
| <http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/hostfs.html>. |
| |
| If you'd like to be able to work with files stored on the host, |
| say Y or M here; otherwise say N. |
| |
| config HPPFS |
| tristate "HoneyPot ProcFS (EXPERIMENTAL)" |
| help |
| hppfs (HoneyPot ProcFS) is a filesystem which allows UML /proc |
| entries to be overridden, removed, or fabricated from the host. |
| Its purpose is to allow a UML to appear to be a physical machine |
| by removing or changing anything in /proc which gives away the |
| identity of a UML. |
| |
| See <http://user-mode-linux.sf.net/hppfs.html> for more information. |
| |
| You only need this if you are setting up a UML honeypot. Otherwise, |
| it is safe to say 'N' here. |
| |
| If you are actively using it, please report any problems, since it's |
| getting fixed. In this moment, it is experimental on 2.6 (it works on |
| 2.4). |
| |
| config MCONSOLE |
| bool "Management console" |
| default y |
| help |
| The user mode linux management console is a low-level interface to |
| the kernel, somewhat like the i386 SysRq interface. Since there is |
| a full-blown operating system running under every user mode linux |
| instance, there is much greater flexibility possible than with the |
| SysRq mechanism. |
| |
| If you answer 'Y' to this option, to use this feature, you need the |
| mconsole client (called uml_mconsole) which is present in CVS in |
| 2.4.5-9um and later (path /tools/mconsole), and is also in the |
| distribution RPM package in 2.4.6 and later. |
| |
| It is safe to say 'Y' here. |
| |
| config MAGIC_SYSRQ |
| bool "Magic SysRq key" |
| depends on MCONSOLE |
| ---help--- |
| If you say Y here, you will have some control over the system even |
| if the system crashes for example during kernel debugging (e.g., you |
| will be able to flush the buffer cache to disk, reboot the system |
| immediately or dump some status information). A key for each of the |
| possible requests is provided. |
| |
| This is the feature normally accomplished by pressing a key |
| while holding SysRq (Alt+PrintScreen). |
| |
| On UML, this is accomplished by sending a "sysrq" command with |
| mconsole, followed by the letter for the requested command. |
| |
| The keys are documented in <file:Documentation/sysrq.txt>. Don't say Y |
| unless you really know what this hack does. |
| |
| config SMP |
| bool "Symmetric multi-processing support (EXPERIMENTAL)" |
| default n |
| depends on (MODE_TT && EXPERIMENTAL && !SMP_BROKEN) || (BROKEN && SMP_BROKEN) |
| help |
| This option enables UML SMP support. |
| It is NOT related to having a real SMP box. Not directly, at least. |
| |
| UML implements virtual SMP by allowing as many processes to run |
| simultaneously on the host as there are virtual processors configured. |
| |
| Obviously, if the host is a uniprocessor, those processes will |
| timeshare, but, inside UML, will appear to be running simultaneously. |
| If the host is a multiprocessor, then UML processes may run |
| simultaneously, depending on the host scheduler. |
| |
| This, however, is supported only in TT mode. So, if you use the SKAS |
| patch on your host, switching to TT mode and enabling SMP usually gives |
| you worse performances. |
| Also, since the support for SMP has been under-developed, there could |
| be some bugs being exposed by enabling SMP. |
| |
| If you don't know what to do, say N. |
| |
| config NR_CPUS |

| config NEST_LEVEL |
| int "Nesting level" |
| default "0" |
| help |
| This is set to the number of layers of UMLs that this UML will be run |
| in. Normally, this is zero, meaning that it will run directly on the |
| host. Setting it to one will build a UML that can run inside a UML |
| that is running on the host. Generally, if you intend this UML to run |
| inside another UML, set CONFIG_NEST_LEVEL to one more than the host |
| UML. |
| |
| Note that if the hosting UML has its CONFIG_KERNEL_HALF_GIGS set to |
| greater than one, then the guest UML should have its CONFIG_NEST_LEVEL |
| set to the host's CONFIG_NEST_LEVEL + CONFIG_KERNEL_HALF_GIGS. |
| Only change this if you are running nested UMLs. |

| config KERNEL_STACK_ORDER |
| int "Kernel stack size order" |
| default 2 |
| help |
| This option determines the size of UML kernel stacks. They will |
| be 1 << order pages. The default is OK unless you're running Valgrind |
| on UML, in which case, set this to 3. |
| |
| config UML_REAL_TIME_CLOCK |
| bool "Real-time Clock" |
| default y |
| help |
| This option makes UML time deltas match wall clock deltas. This should |
| normally be enabled. The exception would be if you are debugging with |
| UML and spend long times with UML stopped at a breakpoint. In this |
| case, when UML is restarted, it will call the timer enough times to make |
| up for the time spent at the breakpoint. This could result in a |
| noticable lag. If this is a problem, then disable this option. |
