445 in order to get reboot to work correctly. This is only needed on

508 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
509 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
510 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
511 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
512 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
513 "high memory".
514
515 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
516 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
517 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
518 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
519 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
520 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
521 possible.
522
523 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
524 answer "4GB" here.
525
526 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
527 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
528 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully
529 supported by Linux, PAE mode is implemented on all recent Intel
530 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
531 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
532
533 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be
534 auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option
535 such as "mem=256M". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of
536 your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the
537 kernel at boot time.)

565 If the address range available to the kernel is less than the

567 as "high memory". Accessing high memory is a little more costly
568 than low memory, as it needs to be mapped into the kernel first.
569 Note that increasing the kernel address space limits the range
570 available to user programs, making the address space there
571 tighter. Selecting anything other than the default 3G/1G split

689 ---help---
690 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point

692 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
693 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
694 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
695 coprocessor or this emulation.
696
697 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
698 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
699 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
700 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
701 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
702 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
703 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
704 intend to use this kernel on different machines.
705
706 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
707 emulation can be found in <file:arch/i386/math-emu/README>.

714 ---help---
715 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
716 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
717 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
718 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
719 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
720 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
721 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
722 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
723 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
724
725 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
726 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
727 as well:
728
729 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
730 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
731 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
732 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
733 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
734 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
735 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
736
737 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
738 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
739 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
740
741 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
742 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

843 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
844 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
845 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
846 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
847 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
848
849 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump, leave
850 the value here unchanged to 0x100000 and set CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.
851 Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux for capturing the crash dump
852 change this value to start of the reserved region (Typically 16MB
853 0x1000000). In other words, it can be set based on the "X" value as
854 specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM" command line boot parameter
855 passed to the panic-ed kernel. Typically this parameter is set as
856 crashkernel=64M@16M. Please take a look at
857 Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt for more details about crash dumps.
858
859 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
860 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
861 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
862 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
863 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
864 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
865 line.
866
867 Don't change this unless you know what you are doing.

942 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
943 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
944 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
945 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
946 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
947 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
948
949 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
950 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
951
952 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
953 machines with more than one CPU.
954
955 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
956 and more information, read <file:Documentation/pm.txt> and the
957 Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
958 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
959
960 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
961 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
962 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
963
964 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
965 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
966 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
967 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
968
969 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
970 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
971 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
972 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
973 APM in your BIOS).
974
975 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
976 "weird" problems:
977
978 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
979 enabled.
980 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
981 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
982 the "no387" option to the kernel
983 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
984 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
985 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
986 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
987 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
988 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
989 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
990 10) install a better fan for the CPU
991 11) exchange RAM chips
992 12) exchange the motherboard.
993
994 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
995 module will be called apm.
