518 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
519 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
520 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
521 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
522 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
523 "high memory".
524
525 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
526 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
527 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
528 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
529 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
530 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
531 possible.
532
533 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
534 answer "4GB" here.
535
536 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
537 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
538 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully
539 supported by Linux, PAE mode is implemented on all recent Intel
540 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
541 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
542
543 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be
544 auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option
545 such as "mem=256M". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of
546 your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the
547 kernel at boot time.)

575 If the address range available to the kernel is less than the
576 physical memory installed, the remaining memory will be available

578 than low memory, as it needs to be mapped into the kernel first.
579 Note that increasing the kernel address space limits the range
580 available to user programs, making the address space there
581 tighter. Selecting anything other than the default 3G/1G split

702 bool "Math emulation"
703 ---help---
704 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
705 operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
706 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
707 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
708 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
709 coprocessor or this emulation.
710
711 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
712 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
713 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
714 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
715 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
716 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
717 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
718 intend to use this kernel on different machines.
719
720 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
Thomas Gleixnerda957e12007-10-11 11:16:31 +0200721 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.

726config MTRR
727 bool "MTRR (Memory Type Range Register) support"
728 ---help---
729 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
730 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
731 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
732 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
733 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
734 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
735 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
736 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
737 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
738
739 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
740 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
741 as well:
742
743 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
744 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
745 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
746 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
747 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
748 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
749 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
750
751 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
752 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
753 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
754
755 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
756 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

847 This gives the physical address where the kernel is loaded.
848
849 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
850 bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and
851 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
852 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
853 address.
854
855 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
856 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
857 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
858 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
859 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
860 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
861 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
862 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
863
864 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump, leave
865 the value here unchanged to 0x100000 and set CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.
866 Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux for capturing the crash dump
867 change this value to start of the reserved region (Typically 16MB
868 0x1000000). In other words, it can be set based on the "X" value as
869 specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM" command line boot parameter
870 passed to the panic-ed kernel. Typically this parameter is set as
871 crashkernel=64M@16M. Please take a look at
872 Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt for more details about crash dumps.
873
874 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
875 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
876 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
877 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
878 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
879 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
880 line.
881
882 Don't change this unless you know what you are doing.

957 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
958 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
959 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
960 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
961 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
962 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
963
964 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
965 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
966
967 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
968 machines with more than one CPU.
969
970 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
971 and more information, read <file:Documentation/pm.txt> and the
972 Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
973 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
974
975 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
976 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
977 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
978
979 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
980 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
981 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
982 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
983
984 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
985 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
986 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
987 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
988 APM in your BIOS).
989
990 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
991 "weird" problems:
992
993 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
994 enabled.
995 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
996 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
997 the "no387" option to the kernel
998 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
999 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1000 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1001 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1002 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1003 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1004 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
1005 10) install a better fan for the CPU
1006 11) exchange RAM chips
1007 12) exchange the motherboard.
1008
1009 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
1010 module will be called apm.

1275 Kprobes allows you to trap at almost any kernel address and
1276 execute a callback function. register_kprobe() establishes
1277 a probepoint and specifies the callback. Kprobes is useful
1278 for kernel debugging, non-intrusive instrumentation and testing.
1279 If in doubt, say "N".
