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.

Stefan Assmann41b9eb22008-07-15 13:48:55 +0200742 This option enables a workaround that fixes a source of
743 spurious interrupts. This is recommended when threaded
744 interrupt handling is used on systems where the generation of
745 superfluous "boot interrupts" cannot be disabled.
746
747 Some chipsets generate a legacy INTx "boot IRQ" when the IRQ
748 entry in the chipset's IO-APIC is masked (as, e.g. the RT
749 kernel does during interrupt handling). On chipsets where this
750 boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps
751 the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot
752 IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the
753 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this
754 way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise
755 the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring
756 down (vital) interrupt lines.
757
758 Only affects "broken" chipsets. Interrupt sharing may be
759 increased on these systems.

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

957 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
958 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
959 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
960 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
961 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
962 "high memory".
963
964 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
965 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
966 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
967 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
968 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
969 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
970 possible.
971
972 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
973 answer "4GB" here.
974
975 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
976 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
977 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully
978 supported by Linux, PAE mode is implemented on all recent Intel
979 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
980 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
981
982 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be
983 auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option
984 such as "mem=256M". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of
985 your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the
986 kernel at boot time.)
987
988 If unsure, say "off".

1014
1015 If the address range available to the kernel is less than the
1016 physical memory installed, the remaining memory will be available
1017 as "high memory". Accessing high memory is a little more costly
1018 than low memory, as it needs to be mapped into the kernel first.
1019 Note that increasing the kernel address space limits the range
1020 available to user programs, making the address space there
1021 tighter. Selecting anything other than the default 3G/1G split
1022 will also likely make your kernel incompatible with binary-only

1258 prompt "Math emulation" if X86_32
1259 ---help---
1260 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
1261 operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
1262 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
1263 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
1264 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
1265 coprocessor or this emulation.
1266
1267 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1268 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1269 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1270 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1271 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1272 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1273 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1274 intend to use this kernel on different machines.
1275
1276 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
1277 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.
1278
1279 If you are not sure, say Y; apart from resulting in a 66 KB bigger
1280 kernel, it won't hurt.

1282config MTRR
1283 bool "MTRR (Memory Type Range Register) support"
1284 ---help---
1285 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1286 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1287 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1288 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1289 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1290 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1291 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1292 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1293 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1294
1295 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1296 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1297 as well:
1298
1299 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1300 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1301 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1302 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1303 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1304 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1305 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1306
1307 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1308 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1309 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1310
1311 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1312 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1462 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
1463 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1464 address.
1465
1466 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1467 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1468 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1469 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1470 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1471 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1472 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1473 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
1474
1475 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump, leave
1476 the value here unchanged to 0x100000 and set CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.
1477 Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux for capturing the crash dump
1478 change this value to start of the reserved region (Typically 16MB
1479 0x1000000). In other words, it can be set based on the "X" value as
1480 specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM" command line boot parameter
1481 passed to the panic-ed kernel. Typically this parameter is set as
1482 crashkernel=64M@16M. Please take a look at
1483 Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt for more details about crash dumps.
1484
1485 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1486 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1487 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1488 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1489 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1490 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the

1638 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
1639 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
1640 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
1641 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
1642 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
1643 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
1644
1645 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
1646 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
1647
1648 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
1649 machines with more than one CPU.
1650
1651 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
Randy Dunlap53471122008-03-12 18:10:51 -04001652 and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/pm.txt> and the
Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01001653 Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
1654 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
1655
1656 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
1657 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
1658 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
1659
1660 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
1661 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
1662 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
1663 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
1664
1665 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
1666 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
1667 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
1668 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
1669 APM in your BIOS).
1670
1671 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
1672 "weird" problems:
1673
1674 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
1675 enabled.
1676 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
1677 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
1678 the "no387" option to the kernel
1679 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
1680 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1681 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1682 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1683 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1684 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1685 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
1686 10) install a better fan for the CPU
1687 11) exchange RAM chips
1688 12) exchange the motherboard.
1689
1690 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
1691 module will be called apm.

1707 power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend
1708 State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
1709 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
1710 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
1711 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
1712 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
1713 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
1714 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
1715 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba
1716 T400CDT. This is off by default since most machines do fine without
1717 this feature.

1725 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,

1735 virtual console blanks the screen. Note that this is only used by
1736 the virtual console screen blanker, and won't turn off the backlight
1737 when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
1738 do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
1739 option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your

1781 On PCI systems, the BIOS can be used to detect the PCI devices and
1782 determine their configuration. However, some old PCI motherboards
1783 have BIOS bugs and may crash if this is done. Also, some embedded
1784 PCI-based systems don't have any BIOS at all. Linux can also try to
1785 detect the PCI hardware directly without using the BIOS.

1791 If you choose "Any", the kernel will try MMCONFIG, then the

Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01001928 MicroChannel Architecture is found in some IBM PS/2 machines and
1929 laptops. It is a bus system similar to PCI or ISA. See
1930 <file:Documentation/mca.txt> (and especially the web page given
1931 there) before attempting to build an MCA bus kernel.

Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01001938 This provides basic support for National Semiconductor's
1939 (now AMD's) Geode processors. The driver probes for the
1940 PCI-IDs of several on-chip devices, so its a good dependency
1941 for other scx200_* drivers.
1942
1943 If compiled as a module, the driver is named scx200.

Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01001950 This driver provides a clocksource built upon the on-chip
1951 27MHz high-resolution timer. Its also a workaround for
1952 NSC Geode SC-1100's buggy TSC, which loses time when the
1953 processor goes idle (as is done by the scheduler). The
1954 other workaround is idle=poll boot option.

Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01001961 This driver provides a clock event source based on the MFGPT
1962 timer(s) in the CS5535 and CS5536 companion chip for the geode.
1963 MFGPTs have a better resolution and max interval than the
1964 generic PIT, and are suitable for use as high-res timers.
