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 +0200699 This option enables a workaround that fixes a source of
700 spurious interrupts. This is recommended when threaded
701 interrupt handling is used on systems where the generation of
702 superfluous "boot interrupts" cannot be disabled.
703
704 Some chipsets generate a legacy INTx "boot IRQ" when the IRQ
705 entry in the chipset's IO-APIC is masked (as, e.g. the RT
706 kernel does during interrupt handling). On chipsets where this
707 boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps
708 the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot
709 IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the
710 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this
711 way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise
712 the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring
713 down (vital) interrupt lines.
714
715 Only affects "broken" chipsets. Interrupt sharing may be
716 increased on these systems.

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

903 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
904 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
905 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
906 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
907 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
908 "high memory".
909
910 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
911 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
912 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
913 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
914 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
915 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
916 possible.
917
918 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
919 answer "4GB" here.
920
921 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
922 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
923 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully

925 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,

960
961 If the address range available to the kernel is less than the
962 physical memory installed, the remaining memory will be available
963 as "high memory". Accessing high memory is a little more costly
964 than low memory, as it needs to be mapped into the kernel first.
965 Note that increasing the kernel address space limits the range
966 available to user programs, making the address space there
967 tighter. Selecting anything other than the default 3G/1G split
968 will also likely make your kernel incompatible with binary-only
969 kernel modules.

1206 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
1207 operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
1208 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
1209 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
1210 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
1211 coprocessor or this emulation.
1212
1213 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1214 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1215 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1216 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1217 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1218 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1219 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1220 intend to use this kernel on different machines.
1221
1222 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
1223 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.

1228config MTRR
1229 bool "MTRR (Memory Type Range Register) support"
1230 ---help---
1231 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1232 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1233 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1234 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1235 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1236 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1237 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1238 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1239 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1240
1241 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1242 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1243 as well:
1244
1245 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1246 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1247 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1248 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1249 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1250 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1251 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1252
1253 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1254 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1255 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1256
1257 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll

Sam Ravnborg506f1d02007-11-09 21:56:54 +01001364 kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your

1366 but it is independent of the system firmware. And like a reboot
1367 you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.

1406
1407 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
1408 bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and
1409 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
1410 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1411 address.
1412
1413 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1414 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1415 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1416 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1417 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1418 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1419 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1420 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
1421
1422 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump, leave
1423 the value here unchanged to 0x100000 and set CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.
1424 Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux for capturing the crash dump
1425 change this value to start of the reserved region (Typically 16MB
1426 0x1000000). In other words, it can be set based on the "X" value as
1427 specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM" command line boot parameter
1428 passed to the panic-ed kernel. Typically this parameter is set as
1429 crashkernel=64M@16M. Please take a look at
1430 Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt for more details about crash dumps.
1431
1432 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1433 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1434 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1435 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1436 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1437 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
1438 line.

1468 address which meets above alignment restriction.
1469
1470 If bootloader loads the kernel at a non-aligned address and
1471 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is set, kernel will move itself to nearest
1472 address aligned to above value and run from there.
1473

1476 load address and decompress itself to the address it has been

1585 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
1586 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
1587 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
1588 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
1589 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
1590 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
1591
1592 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
1593 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
1594
1595 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
1596 machines with more than one CPU.
1597
1598 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
Randy Dunlap53471122008-03-12 18:10:51 -04001599 and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/pm.txt> and the
Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01001600 Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
1601 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
1602
1603 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
1604 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
1605 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
1606
1607 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
1608 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
1609 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
1610 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
1611
1612 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
1613 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
1614 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
1615 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
1616 APM in your BIOS).
1617
1618 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
1619 "weird" problems:
1620
1621 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
1622 enabled.
1623 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
1624 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
1625 the "no387" option to the kernel
1626 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
1627 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1628 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1629 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1630 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1631 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1632 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
1633 10) install a better fan for the CPU
1634 11) exchange RAM chips
1635 12) exchange the motherboard.
1636
1637 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
1638 module will be called apm.

1652 Enable APM features at boot time. From page 36 of the APM BIOS
1653 specification: "When disabled, the APM BIOS does not automatically
1654 power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend
1655 State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
1656 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
1657 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
1658 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
1659 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
1660 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
1661 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
1662 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba
1663 T400CDT. This is off by default since most machines do fine without
1664 this feature.

1670 On some machines, this can activate improved power savings, such as
1671 a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
1672 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,
1673 333 mS). On some machines, this will cause a hang at boot time or
1674 whenever the CPU becomes idle. (On machines with more than one CPU,

1681 turn off the LCD backlight when the screen blanker of the Linux
1682 virtual console blanks the screen. Note that this is only used by
1683 the virtual console screen blanker, and won't turn off the backlight
1684 when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
1685 do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
1686 option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your
1687 backlight at all, or it might print a lot of errors to the console,
1688 especially if you are using gpm.

1694 the APM BIOS as a measure to lessen the effects of a badly behaving
1695 BIOS implementation. The BIOS should reenable interrupts if it
1696 needs to. Unfortunately, some BIOSes do not -- especially those in
1697 many of the newer IBM Thinkpads. If you experience hangs when you
1698 suspend, try setting this to Y. Otherwise, say N.

1728 On PCI systems, the BIOS can be used to detect the PCI devices and
1729 determine their configuration. However, some old PCI motherboards
1730 have BIOS bugs and may crash if this is done. Also, some embedded
1731 PCI-based systems don't have any BIOS at all. Linux can also try to
1732 detect the PCI hardware directly without using the BIOS.
1733
1734 With this option, you can specify how Linux should detect the

1736 if you choose "Direct", the BIOS won't be used, and if you
1737 choose "MMConfig", then PCI Express MMCONFIG will be used.
1738 If you choose "Any", the kernel will try MMCONFIG, then the
1739 direct access method and falls back to the BIOS if that doesn't
1740 work. If unsure, go with the default, which is "Any".
