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

Stefan Assmann41b9eb22008-07-15 13:48:55 +0200738 This option enables a workaround that fixes a source of
739 spurious interrupts. This is recommended when threaded
740 interrupt handling is used on systems where the generation of
741 superfluous "boot interrupts" cannot be disabled.
742
743 Some chipsets generate a legacy INTx "boot IRQ" when the IRQ
744 entry in the chipset's IO-APIC is masked (as, e.g. the RT
745 kernel does during interrupt handling). On chipsets where this
746 boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps
747 the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot
748 IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the
749 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this
750 way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise
751 the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring
752 down (vital) interrupt lines.
753
754 Only affects "broken" chipsets. Interrupt sharing may be
755 increased on these systems.

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

942 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
943 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
944 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
945 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
946 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
947 "high memory".
948
949 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
950 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
951 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
952 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
953 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
954 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
955 possible.
956
957 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
958 answer "4GB" here.
959
960 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
961 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
962 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully
963 supported by Linux, PAE mode is implemented on all recent Intel
964 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
965 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
966
967 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be
968 auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option
969 such as "mem=256M". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of
970 your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the
971 kernel at boot time.)

1000 If the address range available to the kernel is less than the

1002 as "high memory". Accessing high memory is a little more costly
1003 than low memory, as it needs to be mapped into the kernel first.
1004 Note that increasing the kernel address space limits the range
1005 available to user programs, making the address space there
1006 tighter. Selecting anything other than the default 3G/1G split
1007 will also likely make your kernel incompatible with binary-only

1243 prompt "Math emulation" if X86_32
1244 ---help---
1245 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
1246 operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
1247 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
1248 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
1249 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
1250 coprocessor or this emulation.
1251
1252 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1253 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1254 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1255 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1256 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1257 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1258 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1259 intend to use this kernel on different machines.
1260
1261 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
1262 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.
1263
1264 If you are not sure, say Y; apart from resulting in a 66 KB bigger
1265 kernel, it won't hurt.

1267config MTRR
1268 bool "MTRR (Memory Type Range Register) support"
1269 ---help---
1270 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1271 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1272 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1273 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1274 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1275 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1276 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1277 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1278 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1279
1280 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1281 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1282 as well:
1283
1284 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1285 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1286 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1287 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1288 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1289 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1290 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1291
1292 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1293 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1294 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1295
1296 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1297 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1445 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
1446 bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and
1447 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
1448 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1449 address.
1450
1451 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1452 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1453 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1454 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1455 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1456 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1457 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1458 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
1459
1460 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump, leave
1461 the value here unchanged to 0x100000 and set CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.
1462 Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux for capturing the crash dump
1463 change this value to start of the reserved region (Typically 16MB
1464 0x1000000). In other words, it can be set based on the "X" value as
1465 specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM" command line boot parameter
1466 passed to the panic-ed kernel. Typically this parameter is set as
1467 crashkernel=64M@16M. Please take a look at
1468 Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt for more details about crash dumps.
1469
1470 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1471 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1472 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1473 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1474 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1475 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the

1623 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
1624 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
1625 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
1626 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
1627 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
1628 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
1629
1630 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
1631 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
1632
1633 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
1634 machines with more than one CPU.
1635
1636 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
Randy Dunlap53471122008-03-12 18:10:51 -04001637 and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/pm.txt> and the
Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01001638 Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
1639 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
1640
1641 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
1642 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
1643 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
1644
1645 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
1646 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
1647 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
1648 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
1649
1650 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
1651 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
1652 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
1653 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
1654 APM in your BIOS).
1655
1656 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
1657 "weird" problems:
1658
1659 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
1660 enabled.
1661 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
1662 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
1663 the "no387" option to the kernel
1664 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
1665 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1666 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1667 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1668 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1669 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1670 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
1671 10) install a better fan for the CPU
1672 11) exchange RAM chips
1673 12) exchange the motherboard.
1674
1675 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
1676 module will be called apm.

1692 power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend
1693 State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
1694 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
1695 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
1696 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
1697 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
1698 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
1699 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
1700 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba

1767 determine their configuration. However, some old PCI motherboards
1768 have BIOS bugs and may crash if this is done. Also, some embedded
1769 PCI-based systems don't have any BIOS at all. Linux can also try to

1776 If you choose "Any", the kernel will try MMCONFIG, then the

Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01001913 MicroChannel Architecture is found in some IBM PS/2 machines and
1914 laptops. It is a bus system similar to PCI or ISA. See
1915 <file:Documentation/mca.txt> (and especially the web page given
1916 there) before attempting to build an MCA bus kernel.

Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01001923 This provides basic support for National Semiconductor's
1924 (now AMD's) Geode processors. The driver probes for the
1925 PCI-IDs of several on-chip devices, so its a good dependency
1926 for other scx200_* drivers.
1927
1928 If compiled as a module, the driver is named scx200.

Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01001935 This driver provides a clocksource built upon the on-chip
1936 27MHz high-resolution timer. Its also a workaround for
1937 NSC Geode SC-1100's buggy TSC, which loses time when the
1938 processor goes idle (as is done by the scheduler). The
1939 other workaround is idle=poll boot option.

Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01001946 This driver provides a clock event source based on the MFGPT
1947 timer(s) in the CS5535 and CS5536 companion chip for the geode.
1948 MFGPTs have a better resolution and max interval than the
1949 generic PIT, and are suitable for use as high-res timers.
