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.

701 This option enables a workaround that fixes a source of
702 spurious interrupts. This is recommended when threaded
703 interrupt handling is used on systems where the generation of
704 superfluous "boot interrupts" cannot be disabled.
705
706 Some chipsets generate a legacy INTx "boot IRQ" when the IRQ
707 entry in the chipset's IO-APIC is masked (as, e.g. the RT
708 kernel does during interrupt handling). On chipsets where this
709 boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps
710 the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot
711 IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the
712 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this
713 way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise
714 the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring
715 down (vital) interrupt lines.

717 Only affects "broken" chipsets. Interrupt sharing may be
718 increased on these systems.

723 Machine Check Exception support allows the processor to notify the
724 kernel if it detects a problem (e.g. overheating, component failure).
725 The action the kernel takes depends on the severity of the problem,
726 ranging from a warning message on the console, to halting the machine.
727 Your processor must be a Pentium or newer to support this - check the
728 flags in /proc/cpuinfo for mce. Note that some older Pentium systems
729 have a design flaw which leads to false MCE events - hence MCE is
730 disabled on all P5 processors, unless explicitly enabled with "mce"
731 as a boot argument. Similarly, if MCE is built in and creates a
732 problem on some new non-standard machine, you can boot with "nomce"
733 to disable it. MCE support simply ignores non-MCE processors like

905 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
906 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
907 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
908 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
909 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
910 "high memory".
911
912 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
913 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
914 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
915 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
916 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
917 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
918 possible.
919
920 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
921 answer "4GB" here.
922
923 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
924 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
925 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully
926 supported by Linux, PAE mode is implemented on all recent Intel
927 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
928 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
929
930 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be
931 auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option
932 such as "mem=256M". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of
933 your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the

1160 configuration, it is disabled at runtime. Enable it by
1161 setting "memory_corruption_check=1" on the kernel command

1167 When enabled with the default parameters, this option has

1169 of memory and scans it infrequently. It both detects corruption
1170 and prevents it from affecting the running system.

1172 It is, however, intended as a diagnostic tool; if repeatable
1173 BIOS-originated corruption always affects the same memory,

1207 prompt "Math emulation" if X86_32
1208 ---help---
1209 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
1210 operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
1211 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
1212 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
1213 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
1214 coprocessor or this emulation.
1215
1216 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1217 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1218 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1219 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1220 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1221 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1222 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1223 intend to use this kernel on different machines.
1224
1225 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
1226 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.
1227

1231config MTRR
1232 bool "MTRR (Memory Type Range Register) support"
1233 ---help---
1234 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1235 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1236 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1237 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1238 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1239 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1240 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1241 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1242 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1243
1244 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1245 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1246 as well:
1247
1248 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1249 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1250 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1251 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1252 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1253 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1254 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1255
1256 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1257 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1258 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1259
1260 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1261 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1408 This gives the physical address where the kernel is loaded.
1409
1410 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
1411 bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and
1412 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
1413 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1414 address.
1415
1416 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1417 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1418 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1419 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1420 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1421 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1422 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1423 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
1424
1425 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump, leave
1426 the value here unchanged to 0x100000 and set CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.
1427 Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux for capturing the crash dump
1428 change this value to start of the reserved region (Typically 16MB
1429 0x1000000). In other words, it can be set based on the "X" value as
1430 specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM" command line boot parameter
1431 passed to the panic-ed kernel. Typically this parameter is set as
1432 crashkernel=64M@16M. Please take a look at
1433 Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt for more details about crash dumps.
1434
1435 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1436 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1437 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1438 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1439 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1440 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
1441 line.
1442
1443 Don't change this unless you know what you are doing.

1588 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
1589 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
1590 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
1591 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
1592 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
1593 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
1594
1595 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
1596 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
1597
1598 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
1599 machines with more than one CPU.
1600
1601 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
Randy Dunlap53471122008-03-12 18:10:51 -04001602 and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/pm.txt> and the
Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01001603 Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
1604 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
1605
1606 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
1607 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
1608 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
1609
1610 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
1611 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
1612 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
1613 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
1614
1615 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
1616 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
1617 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
1618 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
1619 APM in your BIOS).
1620
1621 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
1622 "weird" problems:
1623
1624 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
1625 enabled.
1626 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
1627 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
1628 the "no387" option to the kernel
1629 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
1630 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1631 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1632 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1633 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1634 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1635 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
1636 10) install a better fan for the CPU
1637 11) exchange RAM chips
1638 12) exchange the motherboard.

1641 module will be called apm.

1659 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
1660 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
1661 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
1662 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
1663 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
1664 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
1665 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba

1675 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,

1839 Find out whether you have ISA slots on your motherboard. ISA is the
1840 name of a bus system, i.e. the way the CPU talks to the other stuff
1841 inside your box. Other bus systems are PCI, EISA, MicroChannel
1842 (MCA) or VESA. ISA is an older system, now being displaced by PCI;
1843 newer boards don't support it. If you have ISA, say Y, otherwise N.

1849 The Extended Industry Standard Architecture (EISA) bus was
1850 developed as an open alternative to the IBM MicroChannel bus.
1851
1852 The EISA bus provided some of the features of the IBM MicroChannel
1853 bus while maintaining backward compatibility with cards made for
1854 the older ISA bus. The EISA bus saw limited use between 1988 and
1855 1995 when it was made obsolete by the PCI bus.
1856
1857 Say Y here if you are building a kernel for an EISA-based machine.
