200 you have a system with more than one CPU, say Y.
201
202 If you say N here, the kernel will run on single and multiprocessor
203 machines, but will use only one CPU of a multiprocessor machine. If
204 you say Y here, the kernel will run on many, but not all,

206 will run faster if you say N here.
207
208 Note that if you say Y here and choose architecture "586" or
209 "Pentium" under "Processor family", the kernel will not work on 486
210 architectures. Similarly, multiprocessor kernels for the "PPro"
211 architecture may not work on all Pentium based boards.

378 This changes the kernel so it can modify itself when it is run
379 under a hypervisor, potentially improving performance significantly
380 over full virtualization. However, when run without a hypervisor
381 the kernel is theoretically slower and slightly larger.

729 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
730 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4

737 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
738 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
739 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
740 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
741 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
742 possible.
743
744 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
745 answer "4GB" here.

747 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This

751 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,

955 ---help---
956 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
957 operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
958 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
959 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
960 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
961 coprocessor or this emulation.
962
963 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
964 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
965 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
966 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
967 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
968 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
969 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
970 intend to use this kernel on different machines.
971
972 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
973 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.

978config MTRR
979 bool "MTRR (Memory Type Range Register) support"
980 ---help---
981 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
982 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
983 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
984 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
985 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
986 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
987 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
988 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
989 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
990
991 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
992 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
993 as well:
994
995 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
996 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
997 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
998 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
999 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1000 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1001 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1002
1003 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1004 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1005 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1006
1007 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1008 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.
1009

1135 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1136 address.
1137
1138 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1139 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1140 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1141 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1142 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1143 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1144 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1145 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
1146
1147 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump, leave
1148 the value here unchanged to 0x100000 and set CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.
1149 Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux for capturing the crash dump
1150 change this value to start of the reserved region (Typically 16MB
1151 0x1000000). In other words, it can be set based on the "X" value as
1152 specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM" command line boot parameter
1153 passed to the panic-ed kernel. Typically this parameter is set as
1154 crashkernel=64M@16M. Please take a look at
1155 Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt for more details about crash dumps.
1156
1157 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1158 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1159 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1160 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1161 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1162 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
1163 line.

1191 This value puts the alignment restrictions on physical address
1192 where kernel is loaded and run from. Kernel is compiled for an
1193 address which meets above alignment restriction.
1194
1195 If bootloader loads the kernel at a non-aligned address and
1196 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is set, kernel will move itself to nearest
1197 address aligned to above value and run from there.
1198
1199 If bootloader loads the kernel at a non-aligned address and
1200 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is not set, kernel will ignore the run time
1201 load address and decompress itself to the address it has been
1202 compiled for and run from there. The address for which kernel is
1203 compiled already meets above alignment restrictions. Hence the
1204 end result is that kernel runs from a physical address meeting
1205 above alignment restrictions.

1261 ---help---
1262 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
1263 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
1264 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
1265 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
1266 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
1267 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
1268
1269 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
1270 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
1271
1272 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
1273 machines with more than one CPU.
1274
1275 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
Randy Dunlap53471122008-03-12 18:10:51 -04001276 and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/pm.txt> and the
Sam Ravnborge279b6c2007-11-06 20:41:05 +01001277 Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
1278 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
1279
1280 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
1281 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
1282 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
1283
1284 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
1285 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
1286 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
1287 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
1288
1289 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
1290 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
1291 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
1292 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
1293 APM in your BIOS).
1294
1295 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
1296 "weird" problems:
1297
1298 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
1299 enabled.
1300 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
1301 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
1302 the "no387" option to the kernel
1303 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
1304 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1305 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1306 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1307 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1308 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1309 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
1310 10) install a better fan for the CPU
1311 11) exchange RAM chips
1312 12) exchange the motherboard.
1313
1314 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
1315 module will be called apm.

1332 State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
1333 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this

1335 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
1336 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
1337 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
1338 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
1339 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba

1348 a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
1349 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,
