210 This enables support for systems with more than one CPU. If you have
211 a system with only one CPU, like most personal computers, say N. If
212 you have a system with more than one CPU, say Y.
213
214 If you say N here, the kernel will run on single and multiprocessor
215 machines, but will use only one CPU of a multiprocessor machine. If
216 you say Y here, the kernel will run on many, but not all,
217 singleprocessor machines. On a singleprocessor machine, the kernel
218 will run faster if you say N here.
219
220 Note that if you say Y here and choose architecture "586" or
221 "Pentium" under "Processor family", the kernel will not work on 486
222 architectures. Similarly, multiprocessor kernels for the "PPro"
223 architecture may not work on all Pentium based boards.
224
225 People using multiprocessor machines who say Y here should also say
226 Y to "Enhanced Real Time Clock Support", below. The "Advanced Power
227 Management" code will be disabled if you say Y here.

Stefan Assmann41b9eb22008-07-15 13:48:55 +0200690 This option enables a workaround that fixes a source of
691 spurious interrupts. This is recommended when threaded
692 interrupt handling is used on systems where the generation of
693 superfluous "boot interrupts" cannot be disabled.
694
695 Some chipsets generate a legacy INTx "boot IRQ" when the IRQ
696 entry in the chipset's IO-APIC is masked (as, e.g. the RT
697 kernel does during interrupt handling). On chipsets where this
698 boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps
699 the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot
700 IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the
701 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this
702 way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise
703 the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring
704 down (vital) interrupt lines.
705
706 Only affects "broken" chipsets. Interrupt sharing may be
707 increased on these systems.

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

894 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
895 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
896 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
897 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
898 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
899 "high memory".
900
901 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
902 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
903 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
904 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
905 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
906 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
907 possible.
908
909 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
910 answer "4GB" here.
911
912 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
913 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.

952 If the address range available to the kernel is less than the
953 physical memory installed, the remaining memory will be available
954 as "high memory". Accessing high memory is a little more costly
955 than low memory, as it needs to be mapped into the kernel first.
956 Note that increasing the kernel address space limits the range
957 available to user programs, making the address space there
958 tighter. Selecting anything other than the default 3G/1G split
959 will also likely make your kernel incompatible with binary-only
960 kernel modules.
961

963 option alone!

1197 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
1198 operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
1199 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
1200 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
1201 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
1202 coprocessor or this emulation.
1203
1204 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1205 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1206 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1207 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1208 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1209 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1210 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1211 intend to use this kernel on different machines.

1213 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor

1220 bool "MTRR (Memory Type Range Register) support"
1221 ---help---
1222 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1223 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1224 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1225 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1226 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1227 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1228 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1229 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1230 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1231
1232 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1233 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1234 as well:
1235
1236 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1237 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1238 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1239 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1240 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1241 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1242 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1243
1244 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1245 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1246 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1247
1248 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1249 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

Sam Ravnborg506f1d02007-11-09 21:56:54 +01001355 kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your

1357 but it is independent of the system firmware. And like a reboot

1397
1398 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
1399 bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and
1400 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
1401 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1402 address.
1403
1404 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1405 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1406 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1407 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1408 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1409 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1410 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1411 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
1412
1413 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump, leave
1414 the value here unchanged to 0x100000 and set CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.
1415 Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux for capturing the crash dump
1416 change this value to start of the reserved region (Typically 16MB
1417 0x1000000). In other words, it can be set based on the "X" value as
1418 specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM" command line boot parameter
1419 passed to the panic-ed kernel. Typically this parameter is set as
1420 crashkernel=64M@16M. Please take a look at
1421 Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt for more details about crash dumps.
1422
1423 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1424 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1425 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1426 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1427 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1428 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
1429 line.

1459 address which meets above alignment restriction.
1460
1461 If bootloader loads the kernel at a non-aligned address and

1464

1467 load address and decompress itself to the address it has been

1579 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
1580 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
1581 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
1582
1583 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
1584 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
1585
1586 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
1587 machines with more than one CPU.
1588
1589 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location

Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01001591 Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
1592 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
1593
1594 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
1595 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
1596 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
1597
1598 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
1599 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
1600 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
1601 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
1602
1603 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
1604 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
1605 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
1606 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
1607 APM in your BIOS).
1608
1609 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
1610 "weird" problems:
1611
1612 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
1613 enabled.
1614 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
1615 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
1616 the "no387" option to the kernel
1617 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
1618 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1619 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1620 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1621 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1622 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1623 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
1624 10) install a better fan for the CPU
1625 11) exchange RAM chips
1626 12) exchange the motherboard.
1627
1628 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
1629 module will be called apm.

1644 specification: "When disabled, the APM BIOS does not automatically
1645 power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend
1646 State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
1647 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
1648 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
1649 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
1650 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
1651 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
1652 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
1653 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba
1654 T400CDT. This is off by default since most machines do fine without
1655 this feature.

1661 On some machines, this can activate improved power savings, such as
1662 a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
1663 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,
1664 333 mS). On some machines, this will cause a hang at boot time or

1672 turn off the LCD backlight when the screen blanker of the Linux
1673 virtual console blanks the screen. Note that this is only used by
1674 the virtual console screen blanker, and won't turn off the backlight
1675 when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
1676 do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
1677 option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your

1686 BIOS implementation. The BIOS should reenable interrupts if it
1687 needs to. Unfortunately, some BIOSes do not -- especially those in
1688 many of the newer IBM Thinkpads. If you experience hangs when you
1689 suspend, try setting this to Y. Otherwise, say N.

1719 On PCI systems, the BIOS can be used to detect the PCI devices and
1720 determine their configuration. However, some old PCI motherboards
1721 have BIOS bugs and may crash if this is done. Also, some embedded
1722 PCI-based systems don't have any BIOS at all. Linux can also try to
1723 detect the PCI hardware directly without using the BIOS.
1724
1725 With this option, you can specify how Linux should detect the

1727 if you choose "Direct", the BIOS won't be used, and if you
1728 choose "MMConfig", then PCI Express MMCONFIG will be used.
1729 If you choose "Any", the kernel will try MMCONFIG, then the
1730 direct access method and falls back to the BIOS if that doesn't
