266 This enables support for systems with more than one CPU. If you have
267 a system with only one CPU, like most personal computers, say N. If
268 you have a system with more than one CPU, say Y.
269
270 If you say N here, the kernel will run on single and multiprocessor
271 machines, but will use only one CPU of a multiprocessor machine. If
272 you say Y here, the kernel will run on many, but not all,
273 singleprocessor machines. On a singleprocessor machine, the kernel
274 will run faster if you say N here.

Stefan Assmann41b9eb22008-07-15 13:48:55 +0200844 This option enables a workaround that fixes a source of
845 spurious interrupts. This is recommended when threaded
846 interrupt handling is used on systems where the generation of
847 superfluous "boot interrupts" cannot be disabled.
848
849 Some chipsets generate a legacy INTx "boot IRQ" when the IRQ
850 entry in the chipset's IO-APIC is masked (as, e.g. the RT
851 kernel does during interrupt handling). On chipsets where this
852 boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps
853 the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot
854 IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the
855 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this
856 way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise
857 the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring
858 down (vital) interrupt lines.
859
860 Only affects "broken" chipsets. Interrupt sharing may be
861 increased on these systems.

1044 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
1045 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
1046 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
1047 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
1048 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
1049 "high memory".
1050
1051 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
1052 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
1053 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
1054 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
1055 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
1056 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
1057 possible.
1058
1059 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
1060 answer "4GB" here.
1061
1062 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
1063 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
1064 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully
1065 supported by Linux, PAE mode is implemented on all recent Intel
1066 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
1067 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
1068
1069 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be
1070 auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option
1071 such as "mem=256M". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of
1072 your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the

1107 available to user programs, making the address space there
1108 tighter. Selecting anything other than the default 3G/1G split

1356 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
1357 operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
1358 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
1359 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
1360 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
1361 coprocessor or this emulation.
1362
1363 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1364 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1365 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1366 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1367 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1368 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1369 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1370 intend to use this kernel on different machines.
1371
1372 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
1373 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.

Sam Ravnborg506f1d02007-11-09 21:56:54 +01001381 ---help---
1382 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1383 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1384 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1385 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1386 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1387 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1388 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1389 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1390 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1391
1392 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1393 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1394 as well:
1395
1396 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1397 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1398 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1399 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1400 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1401 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1402 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1403
1404 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1405 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1406 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1407
1408 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1409 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

Ingo Molnar8f9ca472009-02-05 16:21:53 +01001470 This option is only useful on systems that have EFI firmware.
1471 In addition, you should use the latest ELILO loader available
1472 at <http://elilo.sourceforge.net> in order to take advantage
1473 of EFI runtime services. However, even with this option, the
1474 resultant kernel should continue to boot on existing non-EFI
1475 platforms.

Sam Ravnborg506f1d02007-11-09 21:56:54 +01001514 kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your

Sam Ravnborg506f1d02007-11-09 21:56:54 +01001553 This gives the physical address where the kernel is loaded.
1554
1555 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
1556 bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and
1557 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
1558 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1559 address.
1560
1561 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1562 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1563 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1564 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1565 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1566 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1567 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1568 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
1569
H. Peter Anvinceefccc2009-05-11 16:12:16 -07001570 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump,
1571 leave the value here unchanged to 0x1000000 and set
1572 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux
1573 for capturing the crash dump change this value to start of
1574 the reserved region. In other words, it can be set based on
1575 the "X" value as specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM"
1576 command line boot parameter passed to the panic-ed
1577 kernel. Please take a look at Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt
1578 for more details about crash dumps.
Sam Ravnborg506f1d02007-11-09 21:56:54 +01001579
1580 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1581 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1582 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1583 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1584 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1585 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
1586 line.

1739 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
1740 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
1741 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
1742 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
1743 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
1744 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
1745
1746 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
1747 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
1748
1749 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
1750 machines with more than one CPU.
1751
1752 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
Randy Dunlap53471122008-03-12 18:10:51 -04001753 and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/pm.txt> and the
Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01001754 Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
1755 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
1756
1757 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
1758 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
1759 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
1760
1761 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
1762 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
1763 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
1764 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
1765
1766 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
1767 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
1768 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
1769 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
1770 APM in your BIOS).
1771
1772 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
1773 "weird" problems:
1774
1775 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
1776 enabled.
1777 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
1778 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
1779 the "no387" option to the kernel
1780 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
1781 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1782 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1783 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1784 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1785 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1786 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
1787 10) install a better fan for the CPU
1788 11) exchange RAM chips
1789 12) exchange the motherboard.

1810 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
1811 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
1812 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
1813 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
1814 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
1815 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn

1821 bool "Make CPU Idle calls when idle"
Ingo Molnar8f9ca472009-02-05 16:21:53 +01001822 ---help---
Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01001823 Enable calls to APM CPU Idle/CPU Busy inside the kernel's idle loop.
1824 On some machines, this can activate improved power savings, such as
1825 a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
1826 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,
1827 333 mS). On some machines, this will cause a hang at boot time or
1828 whenever the CPU becomes idle. (On machines with more than one CPU,
1829 this option does nothing.)

Ingo Molnar8f9ca472009-02-05 16:21:53 +01001833 ---help---
Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01001834 Enable console blanking using the APM. Some laptops can use this to
1835 turn off the LCD backlight when the screen blanker of the Linux
1836 virtual console blanks the screen. Note that this is only used by
1837 the virtual console screen blanker, and won't turn off the backlight
1838 when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
1839 do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
1840 option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your
1841 backlight at all, or it might print a lot of errors to the console,
1842 especially if you are using gpm.

Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01001847 Normally we disable external interrupts while we are making calls to
1848 the APM BIOS as a measure to lessen the effects of a badly behaving
1849 BIOS implementation. The BIOS should reenable interrupts if it
1850 needs to. Unfortunately, some BIOSes do not -- especially those in
1851 many of the newer IBM Thinkpads. If you experience hangs when you
1852 suspend, try setting this to Y. Otherwise, say N.

1882 On PCI systems, the BIOS can be used to detect the PCI devices and
1883 determine their configuration. However, some old PCI motherboards
1884 have BIOS bugs and may crash if this is done. Also, some embedded
1885 PCI-based systems don't have any BIOS at all. Linux can also try to
1886 detect the PCI hardware directly without using the BIOS.
1887
1888 With this option, you can specify how Linux should detect the
1889 PCI devices. If you choose "BIOS", the BIOS will be used,
1890 if you choose "Direct", the BIOS won't be used, and if you
1891 choose "MMConfig", then PCI Express MMCONFIG will be used.
1892 If you choose "Any", the kernel will try MMCONFIG, then the
1893 direct access method and falls back to the BIOS if that doesn't
1894 work. If unsure, go with the default, which is "Any".
