519 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
520 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
521 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
522 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
523 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
524 "high memory".
525
526 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
527 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
528 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
529 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
530 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
531 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
532 possible.
533
534 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
535 answer "4GB" here.
536
537 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
538 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
539 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully
540 supported by Linux, PAE mode is implemented on all recent Intel
541 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
542 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
543
544 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be
545 auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option
546 such as "mem=256M". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of
547 your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the

580 Note that increasing the kernel address space limits the range

705 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
706 operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
707 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
708 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
709 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
710 coprocessor or this emulation.
711
712 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
713 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
714 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
715 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
716 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
717 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
718 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
719 intend to use this kernel on different machines.
720
721 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor

728 bool "MTRR (Memory Type Range Register) support"
729 ---help---
730 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
731 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
732 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
733 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
734 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
735 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
736 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
737 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
738 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
739
740 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
741 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
742 as well:
743
744 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
745 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
746 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
747 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
748 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
749 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
750 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
751
752 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
753 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
754 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
755
756 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
757 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

838 a crash by kdump/kexec. The crash dump kernel must be compiled
Randy Dunlapf00b5162007-10-16 23:31:22 -0700839 to a memory address not used by the main kernel or BIOS using

849 This gives the physical address where the kernel is loaded.
850
851 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
852 bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and
853 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
854 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
855 address.
856
857 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
858 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
859 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
860 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
861 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
862 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
863 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
864 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
865
866 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump, leave
867 the value here unchanged to 0x100000 and set CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.
868 Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux for capturing the crash dump
869 change this value to start of the reserved region (Typically 16MB
870 0x1000000). In other words, it can be set based on the "X" value as
871 specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM" command line boot parameter
872 passed to the panic-ed kernel. Typically this parameter is set as
873 crashkernel=64M@16M. Please take a look at
874 Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt for more details about crash dumps.
875
876 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
877 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
878 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
879 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
880 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
881 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
882 line.
883
884 Don't change this unless you know what you are doing.

959 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
960 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
961 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
962 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
963 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
964 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
965
966 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
967 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
968
969 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
970 machines with more than one CPU.
971
972 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
973 and more information, read <file:Documentation/pm.txt> and the
974 Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
975 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
976
977 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
978 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
979 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
980
981 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
982 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
983 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
984 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
985
986 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
987 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
988 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
989 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
990 APM in your BIOS).
991
992 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
993 "weird" problems:
994
995 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
996 enabled.
997 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
998 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
999 the "no387" option to the kernel
1000 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
1001 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1002 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1003 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1004 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1005 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1006 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
1007 10) install a better fan for the CPU
1008 11) exchange RAM chips
1009 12) exchange the motherboard.
1010
1011 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
1012 module will be called apm.

1223 NSC Geode SC-1100's buggy TSC, which loses time when the
1224 processor goes idle (as is done by the scheduler). The
1225 other workaround is idle=poll boot option.

1232 This driver provides a clock event source based on the MFGPT
1233 timer(s) in the CS5535 and CS5536 companion chip for the geode.
1234 MFGPTs have a better resolution and max interval than the
1235 generic PIT, and are suitable for use as high-res timers.

1276 Kprobes allows you to trap at almost any kernel address and
1277 execute a callback function. register_kprobe() establishes
1278 a probepoint and specifies the callback. Kprobes is useful
1279 for kernel debugging, non-intrusive instrumentation and testing.
1280 If in doubt, say "N".
