228 This enables support for systems with more than one CPU. If you have
229 a system with only one CPU, like most personal computers, say N. If
230 you have a system with more than one CPU, say Y.
231
232 If you say N here, the kernel will run on single and multiprocessor
233 machines, but will use only one CPU of a multiprocessor machine. If
234 you say Y here, the kernel will run on many, but not all,
235 singleprocessor machines. On a singleprocessor machine, the kernel
236 will run faster if you say N here.
237
238 Note that if you say Y here and choose architecture "586" or
239 "Pentium" under "Processor family", the kernel will not work on 486
240 architectures. Similarly, multiprocessor kernels for the "PPro"
241 architecture may not work on all Pentium based boards.
242
243 People using multiprocessor machines who say Y here should also say
244 Y to "Enhanced Real Time Clock Support", below. The "Advanced Power
245 Management" code will be disabled if you say Y here.

Stefan Assmann41b9eb22008-07-15 13:48:55 +0200744 This option enables a workaround that fixes a source of
745 spurious interrupts. This is recommended when threaded
746 interrupt handling is used on systems where the generation of
747 superfluous "boot interrupts" cannot be disabled.
748
749 Some chipsets generate a legacy INTx "boot IRQ" when the IRQ
750 entry in the chipset's IO-APIC is masked (as, e.g. the RT
751 kernel does during interrupt handling). On chipsets where this
752 boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps
753 the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot
754 IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the
755 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this
756 way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise
757 the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring
758 down (vital) interrupt lines.
759
760 Only affects "broken" chipsets. Interrupt sharing may be
761 increased on these systems.

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

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

1016
1017 If the address range available to the kernel is less than the
1018 physical memory installed, the remaining memory will be available
1019 as "high memory". Accessing high memory is a little more costly
1020 than low memory, as it needs to be mapped into the kernel first.
1021 Note that increasing the kernel address space limits the range
1022 available to user programs, making the address space there
1023 tighter. Selecting anything other than the default 3G/1G split
1024 will also likely make your kernel incompatible with binary-only

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

1284config MTRR
1285 bool "MTRR (Memory Type Range Register) support"
1286 ---help---
1287 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1288 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1289 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1290 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1291 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1292 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1293 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1294 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1295 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1296
1297 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1298 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1299 as well:
1300
1301 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1302 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1303 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1304 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1305 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1306 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1307 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1308
1309 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1310 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1311 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1312
1313 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1314 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1465 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1466 address.
1467
1468 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1469 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1470 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1471 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1472 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1473 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1474 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1475 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
1476
1477 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump, leave
1478 the value here unchanged to 0x100000 and set CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.
1479 Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux for capturing the crash dump
1480 change this value to start of the reserved region (Typically 16MB
1481 0x1000000). In other words, it can be set based on the "X" value as
1482 specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM" command line boot parameter
1483 passed to the panic-ed kernel. Typically this parameter is set as
1484 crashkernel=64M@16M. Please take a look at
1485 Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt for more details about crash dumps.
1486
1487 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1488 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1489 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1490 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1491 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1492 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the

1640 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
1641 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
1642 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
1643 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
1644 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
1645 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
1646
1647 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
1648 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
1649
1650 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
1651 machines with more than one CPU.
1652
1653 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
Randy Dunlap53471122008-03-12 18:10:51 -04001654 and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/pm.txt> and the
Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01001655 Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
1656 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
1657
1658 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
1659 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
1660 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
1661
1662 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
1663 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
1664 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
1665 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
1666
1667 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
1668 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
1669 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
1670 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
1671 APM in your BIOS).
1672
1673 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
1674 "weird" problems:
1675
1676 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
1677 enabled.
1678 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
1679 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
1680 the "no387" option to the kernel
1681 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
1682 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1683 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1684 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1685 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1686 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1687 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
1688 10) install a better fan for the CPU
1689 11) exchange RAM chips
1690 12) exchange the motherboard.
1691
1692 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
1693 module will be called apm.

1708 specification: "When disabled, the APM BIOS does not automatically
1709 power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend
1710 State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
1711 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
1712 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
1713 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
1714 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
1715 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
1716 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
1717 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba
1718 T400CDT. This is off by default since most machines do fine without
1719 this feature.

1726 a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
1727 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,
1728 333 mS). On some machines, this will cause a hang at boot time or

1737 virtual console blanks the screen. Note that this is only used by
1738 the virtual console screen blanker, and won't turn off the backlight
1739 when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
1740 do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
1741 option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your

1793 If you choose "Any", the kernel will try MMCONFIG, then the

1904 inside your box. Other bus systems are PCI, EISA, MicroChannel
1905 (MCA) or VESA. ISA is an older system, now being displaced by PCI;
1906 newer boards don't support it. If you have ISA, say Y, otherwise N.

1912 The Extended Industry Standard Architecture (EISA) bus was
1913 developed as an open alternative to the IBM MicroChannel bus.
1914
1915 The EISA bus provided some of the features of the IBM MicroChannel
1916 bus while maintaining backward compatibility with cards made for
1917 the older ISA bus. The EISA bus saw limited use between 1988 and
1918 1995 when it was made obsolete by the PCI bus.
1919
1920 Say Y here if you are building a kernel for an EISA-based machine.
1921
1922 Otherwise, say N.

Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01001929 MicroChannel Architecture is found in some IBM PS/2 machines and
1930 laptops. It is a bus system similar to PCI or ISA. See
1931 <file:Documentation/mca.txt> (and especially the web page given
1932 there) before attempting to build an MCA bus kernel.

Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01001939 This provides basic support for National Semiconductor's
1940 (now AMD's) Geode processors. The driver probes for the
1941 PCI-IDs of several on-chip devices, so its a good dependency
1942 for other scx200_* drivers.

Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01001951 This driver provides a clocksource built upon the on-chip
1952 27MHz high-resolution timer. Its also a workaround for
1953 NSC Geode SC-1100's buggy TSC, which loses time when the
1954 processor goes idle (as is done by the scheduler). The
1955 other workaround is idle=poll boot option.

1963 timer(s) in the CS5535 and CS5536 companion chip for the geode.
1964 MFGPTs have a better resolution and max interval than the
1965 generic PIT, and are suitable for use as high-res timers.
