219 This enables support for systems with more than one CPU. If you have
220 a system with only one CPU, like most personal computers, say N. If
221 you have a system with more than one CPU, say Y.
222
223 If you say N here, the kernel will run on single and multiprocessor
224 machines, but will use only one CPU of a multiprocessor machine. If
225 you say Y here, the kernel will run on many, but not all,
226 singleprocessor machines. On a singleprocessor machine, the kernel
227 will run faster if you say N here.
228
229 Note that if you say Y here and choose architecture "586" or
230 "Pentium" under "Processor family", the kernel will not work on 486
231 architectures. Similarly, multiprocessor kernels for the "PPro"
232 architecture may not work on all Pentium based boards.
233
234 People using multiprocessor machines who say Y here should also say
235 Y to "Enhanced Real Time Clock Support", below. The "Advanced Power
236 Management" code will be disabled if you say Y here.

615 remapping of DMA memory accesses from devices. With an AMD IOMMU you
616 can isolate the the DMA memory of different devices and protect the
617 system from misbehaving device drivers or hardware.

Stefan Assmann41b9eb22008-07-15 13:48:55 +0200735 This option enables a workaround that fixes a source of
736 spurious interrupts. This is recommended when threaded
737 interrupt handling is used on systems where the generation of
738 superfluous "boot interrupts" cannot be disabled.
739
740 Some chipsets generate a legacy INTx "boot IRQ" when the IRQ
741 entry in the chipset's IO-APIC is masked (as, e.g. the RT
742 kernel does during interrupt handling). On chipsets where this
743 boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps
744 the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot
745 IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the
746 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this
747 way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise
748 the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring
749 down (vital) interrupt lines.
750
751 Only affects "broken" chipsets. Interrupt sharing may be
752 increased on these systems.

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

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

1007
1008 If the address range available to the kernel is less than the
1009 physical memory installed, the remaining memory will be available
1010 as "high memory". Accessing high memory is a little more costly
1011 than low memory, as it needs to be mapped into the kernel first.
1012 Note that increasing the kernel address space limits the range
1013 available to user programs, making the address space there
1014 tighter. Selecting anything other than the default 3G/1G split
1015 will also likely make your kernel incompatible with binary-only

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

1275config MTRR
1276 bool "MTRR (Memory Type Range Register) support"
1277 ---help---
1278 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1279 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1280 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1281 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1282 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1283 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1284 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1285 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1286 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1287
1288 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1289 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1290 as well:
1291
1292 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1293 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1294 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1295 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1296 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1297 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1298 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1299
1300 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1301 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1302 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1303
1304 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1305 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1452
1453 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
1454 bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and
1455 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
1456 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1457 address.
1458
1459 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1460 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1461 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1462 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1463 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1464 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1465 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1466 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
1467
1468 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump, leave
1469 the value here unchanged to 0x100000 and set CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.
1470 Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux for capturing the crash dump
1471 change this value to start of the reserved region (Typically 16MB
1472 0x1000000). In other words, it can be set based on the "X" value as
1473 specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM" command line boot parameter
1474 passed to the panic-ed kernel. Typically this parameter is set as
1475 crashkernel=64M@16M. Please take a look at
1476 Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt for more details about crash dumps.
1477
1478 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1479 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1480 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1481 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1482 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1483 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
1484 line.

1631 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
1632 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
1633 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
1634 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
1635 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
1636 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
1637
1638 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
1639 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
1640
1641 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
1642 machines with more than one CPU.
1643
1644 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
Randy Dunlap53471122008-03-12 18:10:51 -04001645 and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/pm.txt> and the
Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01001646 Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
1647 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
1648
1649 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
1650 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
1651 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
1652
1653 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
1654 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
1655 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
1656 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
1657
1658 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
1659 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
1660 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
1661 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
1662 APM in your BIOS).
1663
1664 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
1665 "weird" problems:
1666
1667 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
1668 enabled.
1669 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
1670 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
1671 the "no387" option to the kernel
1672 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
1673 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1674 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1675 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1676 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1677 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1678 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
1679 10) install a better fan for the CPU
1680 11) exchange RAM chips
1681 12) exchange the motherboard.
1682
1683 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
1684 module will be called apm.

1700 power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend
1701 State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
1702 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
1703 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
1704 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
1705 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
1706 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
1707 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
1708 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba

1710 this feature.

1775 determine their configuration. However, some old PCI motherboards
1776 have BIOS bugs and may crash if this is done. Also, some embedded
1777 PCI-based systems don't have any BIOS at all. Linux can also try to

1784 If you choose "Any", the kernel will try MMCONFIG, then the

Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01001943 This driver provides a clocksource built upon the on-chip
1944 27MHz high-resolution timer. Its also a workaround for
1945 NSC Geode SC-1100's buggy TSC, which loses time when the
1946 processor goes idle (as is done by the scheduler). The
1947 other workaround is idle=poll boot option.

Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01001954 This driver provides a clock event source based on the MFGPT
1955 timer(s) in the CS5535 and CS5536 companion chip for the geode.
1956 MFGPTs have a better resolution and max interval than the
1957 generic PIT, and are suitable for use as high-res timers.
