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 +0200741 This option enables a workaround that fixes a source of
742 spurious interrupts. This is recommended when threaded
743 interrupt handling is used on systems where the generation of
744 superfluous "boot interrupts" cannot be disabled.
745
746 Some chipsets generate a legacy INTx "boot IRQ" when the IRQ
747 entry in the chipset's IO-APIC is masked (as, e.g. the RT
748 kernel does during interrupt handling). On chipsets where this
749 boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps
750 the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot
751 IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the
752 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this
753 way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise
754 the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring
755 down (vital) interrupt lines.
756
757 Only affects "broken" chipsets. Interrupt sharing may be
758 increased on these systems.

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

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

1013
1014 If the address range available to the kernel is less than the
1015 physical memory installed, the remaining memory will be available
1016 as "high memory". Accessing high memory is a little more costly
1017 than low memory, as it needs to be mapped into the kernel first.
1018 Note that increasing the kernel address space limits the range
1019 available to user programs, making the address space there
1020 tighter. Selecting anything other than the default 3G/1G split
1021 will also likely make your kernel incompatible with binary-only
1022 kernel modules.

1257 prompt "Math emulation" if X86_32
1258 ---help---
1259 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
1260 operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
1261 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
1262 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
1263 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
1264 coprocessor or this emulation.
1265
1266 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1267 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1268 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1269 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1270 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1271 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1272 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1273 intend to use this kernel on different machines.
1274
1275 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
1276 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.
1277
1278 If you are not sure, say Y; apart from resulting in a 66 KB bigger
1279 kernel, it won't hurt.

1281config MTRR
1282 bool "MTRR (Memory Type Range Register) support"
1283 ---help---
1284 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1285 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1286 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1287 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1288 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1289 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1290 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1291 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1292 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1293
1294 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1295 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1296 as well:
1297
1298 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1299 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1300 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1301 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1302 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1303 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1304 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1305
1306 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1307 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1308 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1309
1310 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1311 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1460 bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and
1461 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
1462 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1463 address.
1464
1465 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1466 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1467 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1468 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1469 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1470 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1471 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1472 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
1473
1474 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump, leave
1475 the value here unchanged to 0x100000 and set CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.
1476 Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux for capturing the crash dump
1477 change this value to start of the reserved region (Typically 16MB
1478 0x1000000). In other words, it can be set based on the "X" value as
1479 specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM" command line boot parameter
1480 passed to the panic-ed kernel. Typically this parameter is set as
1481 crashkernel=64M@16M. Please take a look at
1482 Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt for more details about crash dumps.
1483
1484 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1485 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1486 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1487 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1488 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1489 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the

1637 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
1638 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
1639 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
1640 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
1641 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
1642 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
1643
1644 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
1645 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
1646
1647 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
1648 machines with more than one CPU.
1649
1650 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
Randy Dunlap53471122008-03-12 18:10:51 -04001651 and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/pm.txt> and the
Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01001652 Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
1653 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
1654
1655 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
1656 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
1657 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
1658
1659 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
1660 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
1661 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
1662 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
1663
1664 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
1665 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
1666 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
1667 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
1668 APM in your BIOS).
1669
1670 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
1671 "weird" problems:
1672
1673 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
1674 enabled.
1675 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
1676 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
1677 the "no387" option to the kernel
1678 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
1679 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1680 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1681 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1682 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1683 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1684 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
1685 10) install a better fan for the CPU
1686 11) exchange RAM chips
1687 12) exchange the motherboard.
1688
1689 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
1690 module will be called apm.

1706 power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend
1707 State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
1708 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
1709 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
1710 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
1711 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
1712 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
1713 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
1714 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba
1715 T400CDT. This is off by default since most machines do fine without
1716 this feature.

1734 virtual console blanks the screen. Note that this is only used by

1736 when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
1737 do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
1738 option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your

1927 laptops. It is a bus system similar to PCI or ISA. See
1928 <file:Documentation/mca.txt> (and especially the web page given

Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01001936 This provides basic support for National Semiconductor's
1937 (now AMD's) Geode processors. The driver probes for the
1938 PCI-IDs of several on-chip devices, so its a good dependency
1939 for other scx200_* drivers.

Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01001948 This driver provides a clocksource built upon the on-chip
1949 27MHz high-resolution timer. Its also a workaround for
1950 NSC Geode SC-1100's buggy TSC, which loses time when the
1951 processor goes idle (as is done by the scheduler). The
1952 other workaround is idle=poll boot option.

1960 timer(s) in the CS5535 and CS5536 companion chip for the geode.
1961 MFGPTs have a better resolution and max interval than the
1962 generic PIT, and are suitable for use as high-res timers.
