251 ---help---
252 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
253 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
254 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
255 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
256 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
257 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
258 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
259 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
260 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
261
262 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
263 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
264 as well.
265
266 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
267 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
268 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.

460 Support for hardware IOMMUs in IBM's xSeries x366 and x460
461 systems. Needed to run systems with more than 3GB of memory
462 properly with 32-bit PCI devices that do not support DAC
463 (Double Address Cycle). Calgary also supports bus level
464 isolation, where all DMAs pass through the IOMMU. This
465 prevents them from going anywhere except their intended
466 destination. This catches hard-to-find kernel bugs and
467 mis-behaving drivers and devices that do not use the DMA-API
468 properly to set up their DMA buffers. The IOMMU can be
469 turned off at boot time with the iommu=off parameter.
470 Normally the kernel will make the right choice by itself.

516 kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your
517 current kernel, and to start another kernel. It is like a reboot
Matt LaPlante1f1332f2006-06-29 01:32:47 -0400518 but it is independent of the system firmware. And like a reboot
Eric W. Biederman5234f5e2005-06-25 14:58:02 -0700519 you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.
520
Matt LaPlante1f1332f2006-06-29 01:32:47 -0400521 The name comes from the similarity to the exec system call.
Eric W. Biederman5234f5e2005-06-25 14:58:02 -0700522
523 It is an ongoing process to be certain the hardware in a machine
524 is properly shutdown, so do not be surprised if this code does not
525 initially work for you. It may help to enable device hotplugging
526 support. As of this writing the exact hardware interface is
527 strongly in flux, so no good recommendation can be made.

Maneesh Soni05970d42006-01-09 20:51:52 -0800549 of kexec on panic the fail safe kernel needs to run at a different
550 address than the panic-ed kernel. This option is used to set the load
551 address for kernels used to capture crash dump on being kexec'ed
552 after panic. The default value for crash dump kernels is
553 0x1000000 (16MB). This can also be set based on the "X" value as
554 specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM" command line boot parameter
555 passed to the panic-ed kernel. Typically this parameter is set as
556 crashkernel=64M@16M. Please take a look at

570 syscalls, it's possible to isolate those applications in
571 their own address space using seccomp. Once seccomp is
572 enabled via /proc/<pid>/seccomp, it cannot be disabled
573 and the task is only allowed to execute a few safe syscalls
574 defined by each seccomp mode.

582 This option turns on the -fstack-protector GCC feature. This

584 value on the stack just before the return address, and validates
585 the value just before actually returning. Stack based buffer
586 overflows (that need to overwrite this return address) now also
587 overwrite the canary, which gets detected and the attack is then
588 neutralized via a kernel panic.
