Jeff Dike114d1ff2006-01-11 12:17:26 -080044 into UML. This option is largely obsolete, given that skas0 provides

53 If CONFIG_MODE_TT is disabled, then this option gives you the ability
54 to force a static link of UML. Normally, if only skas mode is built
55 in to UML, it will be linked as a shared binary. This is inconvenient

109 help
110 Unless you really know what you are doing, you should say Y here.
111 The reason is that some programs need kernel networking support even
112 when running on a stand-alone machine that isn't connected to any
113 other computer. If you are upgrading from an older kernel, you
114 should consider updating your networking tools too because changes
115 in the kernel and the tools often go hand in hand. The tools are
116 contained in the package net-tools, the location and version number
117 of which are given in <file:Documentation/Changes>.
118
119 For a general introduction to Linux networking, it is highly
120 recommended to read the NET-HOWTO, available from
121 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.

129 While the User-Mode Linux port uses its own root file system for
130 booting and normal file access, this module lets the UML user
131 access files stored on the host. It does not require any
132 network connection between the Host and UML. An example use of
133 this might be:
134
135 mount none /tmp/fromhost -t hostfs -o /tmp/umlshare
136
137 where /tmp/fromhost is an empty directory inside UML and
138 /tmp/umlshare is a directory on the host with files the UML user
139 wishes to access.

141 For more information, see
142 <http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/hostfs.html>.

Linus Torvalds1da177e2005-04-16 15:20:36 -0700150 help
151 hppfs (HoneyPot ProcFS) is a filesystem which allows UML /proc
152 entries to be overridden, removed, or fabricated from the host.
153 Its purpose is to allow a UML to appear to be a physical machine
154 by removing or changing anything in /proc which gives away the
155 identity of a UML.
156
157 See <http://user-mode-linux.sf.net/hppfs.html> for more information.

163 bool "Management console"
164 default y
165 help
166 The user mode linux management console is a low-level interface to
167 the kernel, somewhat like the i386 SysRq interface. Since there is
168 a full-blown operating system running under every user mode linux
169 instance, there is much greater flexibility possible than with the
170 SysRq mechanism.
171
172 If you answer 'Y' to this option, to use this feature, you need the
173 mconsole client (called uml_mconsole) which is present in CVS in
174 2.4.5-9um and later (path /tools/mconsole), and is also in the
175 distribution RPM package in 2.4.6 and later.
176
177 It is safe to say 'Y' here.

182 ---help---
183 If you say Y here, you will have some control over the system even
184 if the system crashes for example during kernel debugging (e.g., you
185 will be able to flush the buffer cache to disk, reboot the system
186 immediately or dump some status information). A key for each of the
187 possible requests is provided.
188
189 This is the feature normally accomplished by pressing a key
190 while holding SysRq (Alt+PrintScreen).
191
192 On UML, this is accomplished by sending a "sysrq" command with
193 mconsole, followed by the letter for the requested command.
194
195 The keys are documented in <file:Documentation/sysrq.txt>. Don't say Y
196 unless you really know what this hack does.

204 This option enables UML SMP support.
205 It is NOT related to having a real SMP box. Not directly, at least.
206
207 UML implements virtual SMP by allowing as many processes to run
208 simultaneously on the host as there are virtual processors configured.
209
210 Obviously, if the host is a uniprocessor, those processes will
211 timeshare, but, inside UML, will appear to be running simultaneously.
212 If the host is a multiprocessor, then UML processes may run
213 simultaneously, depending on the host scheduler.
214
215 This, however, is supported only in TT mode. So, if you use the SKAS
216 patch on your host, switching to TT mode and enabling SMP usually gives
217 you worse performances.
218 Also, since the support for SMP has been under-developed, there could
219 be some bugs being exposed by enabling SMP.
220

233 This is set to the number of layers of UMLs that this UML will be run
234 in. Normally, this is zero, meaning that it will run directly on the
235 host. Setting it to one will build a UML that can run inside a UML
236 that is running on the host. Generally, if you intend this UML to run
237 inside another UML, set CONFIG_NEST_LEVEL to one more than the host
238 UML.
239
240 Note that if the hosting UML has its CONFIG_KERNEL_HALF_GIGS set to
241 greater than one, then the guest UML should have its CONFIG_NEST_LEVEL
242 set to the host's CONFIG_NEST_LEVEL + CONFIG_KERNEL_HALF_GIGS.

250 This was used to allow UML to run with big amounts of memory.
251 Currently it is unstable, so if unsure say N.

253 To use big amounts of memory, it is recommended to disable TT mode (i.e.
254 CONFIG_MODE_TT) and enable static linking (i.e. CONFIG_STATIC_LINK) -
255 this should allow the guest to use up to 2.75G of memory.

271 UML and spend long times with UML stopped at a breakpoint. In this
272 case, when UML is restarted, it will call the timer enough times to make
273 up for the time spent at the breakpoint. This could result in a
