222 This enables support for systems with more than one CPU. If you have
223 a system with only one CPU, like most personal computers, say N. If
224 you have a system with more than one CPU, say Y.
225
226 If you say N here, the kernel will run on single and multiprocessor
227 machines, but will use only one CPU of a multiprocessor machine. If
228 you say Y here, the kernel will run on many, but not all,
229 singleprocessor machines. On a singleprocessor machine, the kernel
230 will run faster if you say N here.
231
232 Note that if you say Y here and choose architecture "586" or
233 "Pentium" under "Processor family", the kernel will not work on 486
234 architectures. Similarly, multiprocessor kernels for the "PPro"
235 architecture may not work on all Pentium based boards.
236
237 People using multiprocessor machines who say Y here should also say
238 Y to "Enhanced Real Time Clock Support", below. The "Advanced Power
239 Management" code will be disabled if you say Y here.

709 This option enables a workaround that fixes a source of
710 spurious interrupts. This is recommended when threaded
711 interrupt handling is used on systems where the generation of
712 superfluous "boot interrupts" cannot be disabled.
713
714 Some chipsets generate a legacy INTx "boot IRQ" when the IRQ
715 entry in the chipset's IO-APIC is masked (as, e.g. the RT
716 kernel does during interrupt handling). On chipsets where this
717 boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps
718 the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot
719 IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the
720 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this
721 way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise
722 the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring
723 down (vital) interrupt lines.
724
725 Only affects "broken" chipsets. Interrupt sharing may be
726 increased on these systems.

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

914 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
915 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
916 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
917 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
918 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
919 "high memory".
920
921 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
922 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
923 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
924 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
925 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
926 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
927 possible.

930 answer "4GB" here.

1216 prompt "Math emulation" if X86_32
1217 ---help---
1218 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
1219 operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
1220 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
1221 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
1222 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
1223 coprocessor or this emulation.
1224
1225 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1226 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1227 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1228 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1229 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1230 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1231 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1232 intend to use this kernel on different machines.
1233
1234 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
1235 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.

1240config MTRR
1241 bool "MTRR (Memory Type Range Register) support"
1242 ---help---
1243 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1244 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1245 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1246 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1247 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1248 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1249 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1250 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1251 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1252
1253 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1254 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1255 as well:
1256
1257 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1258 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1259 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1260 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1261 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1262 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1263 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1264
1265 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1266 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1267 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1268
1269 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1270 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1380 you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.

1384 It is an ongoing process to be certain the hardware in a machine
1385 is properly shutdown, so do not be surprised if this code does not

1387 support. As of this writing the exact hardware interface is
1388 strongly in flux, so no good recommendation can be made.

1418 This gives the physical address where the kernel is loaded.

1420 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
1421 bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and
1422 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
1423 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1424 address.
1425
1426 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1427 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1428 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1429 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1430 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1431 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1432 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1433 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
1434
1435 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump, leave
1436 the value here unchanged to 0x100000 and set CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.
1437 Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux for capturing the crash dump
1438 change this value to start of the reserved region (Typically 16MB
1439 0x1000000). In other words, it can be set based on the "X" value as
1440 specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM" command line boot parameter
1441 passed to the panic-ed kernel. Typically this parameter is set as
1442 crashkernel=64M@16M. Please take a look at
1443 Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt for more details about crash dumps.
1444
1445 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1446 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1447 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1448 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1449 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1450 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
1451 line.

1599 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
1600 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
1601 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
1602 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
1603 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
1604 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
1605
1606 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
1607 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
1608
1609 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
1610 machines with more than one CPU.
1611
1612 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
Randy Dunlap53471122008-03-12 18:10:51 -04001613 and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/pm.txt> and the
Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01001614 Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
1615 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
1616
1617 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
1618 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
1619 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
1620
1621 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
1622 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
1623 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
1624 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
1625
1626 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
1627 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
1628 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
1629 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
1630 APM in your BIOS).
1631
1632 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
1633 "weird" problems:
1634
1635 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
1636 enabled.
1637 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
1638 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
1639 the "no387" option to the kernel
1640 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
1641 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1642 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1643 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1644 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1645 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1646 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
1647 10) install a better fan for the CPU
1648 11) exchange RAM chips
1649 12) exchange the motherboard.

1652 module will be called apm.

1851 Find out whether you have ISA slots on your motherboard. ISA is the
1852 name of a bus system, i.e. the way the CPU talks to the other stuff
1853 inside your box. Other bus systems are PCI, EISA, MicroChannel
1854 (MCA) or VESA. ISA is an older system, now being displaced by PCI;
1855 newer boards don't support it. If you have ISA, say Y, otherwise N.

1861 The Extended Industry Standard Architecture (EISA) bus was
1862 developed as an open alternative to the IBM MicroChannel bus.
1863
1864 The EISA bus provided some of the features of the IBM MicroChannel
1865 bus while maintaining backward compatibility with cards made for
1866 the older ISA bus. The EISA bus saw limited use between 1988 and
1867 1995 when it was made obsolete by the PCI bus.

1869 Say Y here if you are building a kernel for an EISA-based machine.
