Stefan Assmann41b9eb22008-07-15 13:48:55 +0200977 This option enables a workaround that fixes a source of
978 spurious interrupts. This is recommended when threaded
979 interrupt handling is used on systems where the generation of
980 superfluous "boot interrupts" cannot be disabled.
981
982 Some chipsets generate a legacy INTx "boot IRQ" when the IRQ
983 entry in the chipset's IO-APIC is masked (as, e.g. the RT
984 kernel does during interrupt handling). On chipsets where this
985 boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps
986 the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot
987 IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the
988 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this
989 way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise
990 the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring
991 down (vital) interrupt lines.
992
993 Only affects "broken" chipsets. Interrupt sharing may be
994 increased on these systems.

Borislav Petkov5f9c01a2016-02-03 12:33:29 +01001178 The preferred method to load microcode from a detached initrd is described
1179 in Documentation/x86/early-microcode.txt. For that you need to enable
1180 CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD in order for the loader to be able to scan the
1181 initrd for microcode blobs.

Borislav Petkov5f9c01a2016-02-03 12:33:29 +01001183 In addition, you can build-in the microcode into the kernel. For that you
1184 need to enable FIRMWARE_IN_KERNEL and add the vendor-supplied microcode
1185 to the CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE config option.

1237 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
1238 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
1239 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
1240 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
1241 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
1242 "high memory".
1243
1244 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
1245 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
1246 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
1247 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
1248 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
1249 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
1250 possible.
1251
1252 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
1253 answer "4GB" here.
1254
1255 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
1256 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
1257 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully
1258 supported by Linux, PAE mode is implemented on all recent Intel
1259 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
1260 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
1261
1262 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be
1263 auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option
1264 such as "mem=256M". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of
1265 your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the
1266 kernel at boot time.)
1267
1268 If unsure, say "off".

1292
1293 If the address range available to the kernel is less than the
1294 physical memory installed, the remaining memory will be available
1295 as "high memory". Accessing high memory is a little more costly
1296 than low memory, as it needs to be mapped into the kernel first.
1297 Note that increasing the kernel address space limits the range
1298 available to user programs, making the address space there
1299 tighter. Selecting anything other than the default 3G/1G split
1300 will also likely make your kernel incompatible with binary-only
1301 kernel modules.

1571 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
1572 operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
1573 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
1574 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
1575 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
1576 coprocessor or this emulation.
1577
1578 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1579 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1580 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1581 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1582 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1583 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1584 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1585 intend to use this kernel on different machines.

1588 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.

1597 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1598 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1599 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1600 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1601 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1602 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1603 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1604 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1605 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1606
1607 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1608 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1609 as well:
1610
1611 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1612 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1613 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1614 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1615 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1616 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1617 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1618
1619 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1620 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1621 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1622
1623 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1624 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1871
1872 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
1873 bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and
1874 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
1875 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1876 address.
1877
1878 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1879 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1880 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1881 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1882 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1883 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1884 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1885 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
1886
H. Peter Anvinceefccc2009-05-11 16:12:16 -07001887 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump,
1888 leave the value here unchanged to 0x1000000 and set
1889 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux
1890 for capturing the crash dump change this value to start of
1891 the reserved region. In other words, it can be set based on
1892 the "X" value as specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM"
1893 command line boot parameter passed to the panic-ed
1894 kernel. Please take a look at Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt
1895 for more details about crash dumps.
Sam Ravnborg506f1d02007-11-09 21:56:54 +01001896
1897 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1898 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1899 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1900 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1901 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1902 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
1903 line.

2074 Legacy user code that does not know how to find the vDSO expects
2075 to be able to issue three syscalls by calling fixed addresses in
2076 kernel space. Since this location is not randomized with ASLR,
2077 it can be used to assist security vulnerability exploitation.

2221 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
2222 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
2223 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
2224 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
2225 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
2226 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
2227
2228 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
2229 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
2230
2231 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
2232 machines with more than one CPU.
2233
2234 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
Michael Witten2dc98fd2011-07-08 21:11:16 +00002235 and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/apm-acpi.txt>
2236 and the Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01002237 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
2238
2239 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
2240 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
2241 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
2242
2243 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
2244 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
2245 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
2246 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
2247
2248 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
2249 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
2250 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
2251 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
2252 APM in your BIOS).
2253
2254 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
2255 "weird" problems:
2256
2257 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
2258 enabled.
2259 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
2260 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
2261 the "no387" option to the kernel
2262 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
2263 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
2264 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
2265 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
2266 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
2267 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
2268 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
2269 10) install a better fan for the CPU
2270 11) exchange RAM chips
2271 12) exchange the motherboard.
2272
2273 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
2274 module will be called apm.

2291 State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
2292 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
2293 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
2294 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
2295 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
2296 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
2297 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
2298 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba

2605 bool "Mark VGA/VBE/EFI FB as generic system framebuffer"
2606 help
2607 Firmwares often provide initial graphics framebuffers so the BIOS,
2608 bootloader or kernel can show basic video-output during boot for
2609 user-guidance and debugging. Historically, x86 used the VESA BIOS
2610 Extensions and EFI-framebuffers for this, which are mostly limited
2611 to x86.
2612 This option, if enabled, marks VGA/VBE/EFI framebuffers as generic
2613 framebuffers so the new generic system-framebuffer drivers can be
2614 used on x86. If the framebuffer is not compatible with the generic
2615 modes, it is adverticed as fallback platform framebuffer so legacy
2616 drivers like efifb, vesafb and uvesafb can pick it up.
2617 If this option is not selected, all system framebuffers are always
2618 marked as fallback platform framebuffers as usual.
2619
2620 Note: Legacy fbdev drivers, including vesafb, efifb, uvesafb, will
2621 not be able to pick up generic system framebuffers if this option
2622 is selected. You are highly encouraged to enable simplefb as
2623 replacement if you select this option. simplefb can correctly deal
2624 with generic system framebuffers. But you should still keep vesafb
2625 and others enabled as fallback if a system framebuffer is
2626 incompatible with simplefb.
