226 This enables support for systems with more than one CPU. If you have
227 a system with only one CPU, like most personal computers, say N. If
228 you have a system with more than one CPU, say Y.
229
230 If you say N here, the kernel will run on single and multiprocessor
231 machines, but will use only one CPU of a multiprocessor machine. If
232 you say Y here, the kernel will run on many, but not all,
233 singleprocessor machines. On a singleprocessor machine, the kernel
234 will run faster if you say N here.
235
236 Note that if you say Y here and choose architecture "586" or
237 "Pentium" under "Processor family", the kernel will not work on 486
238 architectures. Similarly, multiprocessor kernels for the "PPro"
239 architecture may not work on all Pentium based boards.
240
241 People using multiprocessor machines who say Y here should also say
242 Y to "Enhanced Real Time Clock Support", below. The "Advanced Power
243 Management" code will be disabled if you say Y here.

713 This option enables a workaround that fixes a source of
714 spurious interrupts. This is recommended when threaded
715 interrupt handling is used on systems where the generation of
716 superfluous "boot interrupts" cannot be disabled.
717
718 Some chipsets generate a legacy INTx "boot IRQ" when the IRQ
719 entry in the chipset's IO-APIC is masked (as, e.g. the RT
720 kernel does during interrupt handling). On chipsets where this
721 boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps
722 the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot
723 IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the
724 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this
725 way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise
726 the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring
727 down (vital) interrupt lines.

736 Machine Check Exception support allows the processor to notify the

738 The action the kernel takes depends on the severity of the problem,
739 ranging from a warning message on the console, to halting the machine.
740 Your processor must be a Pentium or newer to support this - check the
741 flags in /proc/cpuinfo for mce. Note that some older Pentium systems
742 have a design flaw which leads to false MCE events - hence MCE is
743 disabled on all P5 processors, unless explicitly enabled with "mce"
744 as a boot argument. Similarly, if MCE is built in and creates a
745 problem on some new non-standard machine, you can boot with "nomce"

918 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
919 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
920 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
921 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
922 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
923 "high memory".
924
925 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
926 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
927 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
928 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
929 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
930 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
931 possible.
932
933 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
934 answer "4GB" here.
935
936 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
937 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
938 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully

940 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
941 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
942
943 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be
944 auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option

1220 prompt "Math emulation" if X86_32
1221 ---help---
1222 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
1223 operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
1224 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
1225 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
1226 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
1227 coprocessor or this emulation.
1228
1229 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1230 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1231 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1232 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1233 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1234 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1235 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1236 intend to use this kernel on different machines.
1237
1238 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
1239 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.

1244config MTRR
1245 bool "MTRR (Memory Type Range Register) support"
1246 ---help---
1247 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1248 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1249 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1250 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1251 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1252 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1253 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1254 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1255 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1256
1257 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1258 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1259 as well:
1260
1261 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1262 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1263 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1264 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1265 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1266 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1267 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1268
1269 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1270 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1271 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1272
1273 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1274 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1380 kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your
1381 current kernel, and to start another kernel. It is like a reboot
1382 but it is independent of the system firmware. And like a reboot
1383 you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.
1384
1385 The name comes from the similarity to the exec system call.
1386
1387 It is an ongoing process to be certain the hardware in a machine
1388 is properly shutdown, so do not be surprised if this code does not
1389 initially work for you. It may help to enable device hotplugging
1390 support. As of this writing the exact hardware interface is
1391 strongly in flux, so no good recommendation can be made.

1421 This gives the physical address where the kernel is loaded.
1422
1423 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
1424 bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and
1425 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
1426 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1427 address.
1428
1429 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1430 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1431 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1432 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1433 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1434 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1435 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1436 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
1437
1438 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump, leave
1439 the value here unchanged to 0x100000 and set CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.
1440 Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux for capturing the crash dump
1441 change this value to start of the reserved region (Typically 16MB
1442 0x1000000). In other words, it can be set based on the "X" value as
1443 specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM" command line boot parameter
1444 passed to the panic-ed kernel. Typically this parameter is set as
1445 crashkernel=64M@16M. Please take a look at
1446 Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt for more details about crash dumps.
1447
1448 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1449 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1450 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1451 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1452 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1453 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
1454 line.

1602 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
1603 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
1604 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
1605 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
1606 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
1607 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
1608
1609 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
1610 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
1611
1612 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
1613 machines with more than one CPU.
1614
1615 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
Randy Dunlap53471122008-03-12 18:10:51 -04001616 and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/pm.txt> and the
Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01001617 Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
1618 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
1619
1620 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
1621 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
1622 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
1623
1624 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
1625 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
1626 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
1627 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
1628
1629 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
1630 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
1631 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
1632 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
1633 APM in your BIOS).
1634
1635 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
1636 "weird" problems:
1637
1638 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
1639 enabled.
1640 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
1641 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
1642 the "no387" option to the kernel
1643 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
1644 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1645 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1646 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1647 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1648 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1649 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
1650 10) install a better fan for the CPU
1651 11) exchange RAM chips
1652 12) exchange the motherboard.

1865 Find out whether you have ISA slots on your motherboard. ISA is the
1866 name of a bus system, i.e. the way the CPU talks to the other stuff
1867 inside your box. Other bus systems are PCI, EISA, MicroChannel
1868 (MCA) or VESA. ISA is an older system, now being displaced by PCI;
1869 newer boards don't support it. If you have ISA, say Y, otherwise N.

1875 The Extended Industry Standard Architecture (EISA) bus was

1878 The EISA bus provided some of the features of the IBM MicroChannel
1879 bus while maintaining backward compatibility with cards made for
1880 the older ISA bus. The EISA bus saw limited use between 1988 and
1881 1995 when it was made obsolete by the PCI bus.

1883 Say Y here if you are building a kernel for an EISA-based machine.
