291 ---help---
292 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
293 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
294 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
295 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
296 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
297 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
298 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
299 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
300 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
301
302 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
303 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
304 as well.
305
306 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
307 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
308 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
309

615
616 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
617 bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and
618 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
619 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
620 address.
621
622 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
623 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
624 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
625 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
626 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
627 vmlinux instead.
628
629 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump, leave
630 the value here unchanged to 0x200000 and set CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.
631 Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux for capturing the crash dump
632 change this value to start of the reserved region (Typically 16MB
633 0x1000000). In other words, it can be set based on the "X" value as
Maneesh Soni05970d42006-01-09 20:51:52 -0800634 specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM" command line boot parameter
635 passed to the panic-ed kernel. Typically this parameter is set as
636 crashkernel=64M@16M. Please take a look at
637 Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt for more details about crash dumps.
638
Vivek Goyal1ab60e02007-05-02 19:27:07 +0200639 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is advantageous as
640 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
641 as production kernel and capture kernel.
642
Maneesh Soni05970d42006-01-09 20:51:52 -0800643 Don't change this unless you know what you are doing.
