268 ---help---
269 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
270 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
271 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
272 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
273 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
274 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
275 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
276 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
277 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
278
279 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
280 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
281 as well.
282
283 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
284 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
285 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
286

472 Support for hardware IOMMUs in IBM's xSeries x366 and x460
473 systems. Needed to run systems with more than 3GB of memory
474 properly with 32-bit PCI devices that do not support DAC
475 (Double Address Cycle). Calgary also supports bus level
476 isolation, where all DMAs pass through the IOMMU. This
477 prevents them from going anywhere except their intended
478 destination. This catches hard-to-find kernel bugs and
479 mis-behaving drivers and devices that do not use the DMA-API
480 properly to set up their DMA buffers. The IOMMU can be
481 turned off at boot time with the iommu=off parameter.
482 Normally the kernel will make the right choice by itself.

534 kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your
535 current kernel, and to start another kernel. It is like a reboot
Matt LaPlante1f1332f2006-06-29 01:32:47 -0400536 but it is independent of the system firmware. And like a reboot
Eric W. Biederman5234f5e2005-06-25 14:58:02 -0700537 you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.
538
Matt LaPlante1f1332f2006-06-29 01:32:47 -0400539 The name comes from the similarity to the exec system call.
Eric W. Biederman5234f5e2005-06-25 14:58:02 -0700540
541 It is an ongoing process to be certain the hardware in a machine
542 is properly shutdown, so do not be surprised if this code does not
543 initially work for you. It may help to enable device hotplugging
544 support. As of this writing the exact hardware interface is
545 strongly in flux, so no good recommendation can be made.

Maneesh Soni05970d42006-01-09 20:51:52 -0800567 of kexec on panic the fail safe kernel needs to run at a different
568 address than the panic-ed kernel. This option is used to set the load
569 address for kernels used to capture crash dump on being kexec'ed
570 after panic. The default value for crash dump kernels is
571 0x1000000 (16MB). This can also be set based on the "X" value as
572 specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM" command line boot parameter
573 passed to the panic-ed kernel. Typically this parameter is set as
574 crashkernel=64M@16M. Please take a look at

600 This option turns on the -fstack-protector GCC feature. This
601 feature puts, at the beginning of critical functions, a canary
602 value on the stack just before the return address, and validates
603 the value just before actually returning. Stack based buffer
604 overflows (that need to overwrite this return address) now also
605 overwrite the canary, which gets detected and the attack is then
606 neutralized via a kernel panic.

609 gcc with the feature backported. Older versions are automatically
610 detected and for those versions, this configuration option is ignored.
