59 This enables support for systems with more than one CPU. If you have
60 a system with only one CPU, like most personal computers, say N. If
61 you have a system with more than one CPU, say Y.
62
63 If you say N here, the kernel will run on single and multiprocessor
64 machines, but will use only one CPU of a multiprocessor machine. If
65 you say Y here, the kernel will run on many, but not all,
66 singleprocessor machines. On a singleprocessor machine, the kernel
67 will run faster if you say N here.
68
69 Note that if you say Y here and choose architecture "586" or
70 "Pentium" under "Processor family", the kernel will not work on 486
71 architectures. Similarly, multiprocessor kernels for the "PPro"
72 architecture may not work on all Pentium based boards.
73
74 People using multiprocessor machines who say Y here should also say
75 Y to "Enhanced Real Time Clock Support", below. The "Advanced Power
76 Management" code will be disabled if you say Y here.

289 Machine Check Exception support allows the processor to notify the
290 kernel if it detects a problem (e.g. overheating, component failure).
291 The action the kernel takes depends on the severity of the problem,
292 ranging from a warning message on the console, to halting the machine.
293 Your processor must be a Pentium or newer to support this - check the
294 flags in /proc/cpuinfo for mce. Note that some older Pentium systems
295 have a design flaw which leads to false MCE events - hence MCE is
296 disabled on all P5 processors, unless explicitly enabled with "mce"
297 as a boot argument. Similarly, if MCE is built in and creates a
298 problem on some new non-standard machine, you can boot with "nomce"
299 to disable it. MCE support simply ignores non-MCE processors like
300 the 386 and 486, so nearly everyone can say Y here.

419 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
420 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
421 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
422 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
423 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
424 "high memory".
425
426 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
427 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
428 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
429 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
430 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
431 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
432 possible.
433
434 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
435 answer "4GB" here.
436
437 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
438 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
439 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully
440 supported by Linux, PAE mode is implemented on all recent Intel
441 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
442 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
443
444 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be
445 auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option
446 such as "mem=256M". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of
447 your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the
448 kernel at boot time.)

479 Note that increasing the kernel address space limits the range

481 tighter. Selecting anything other than the default 3G/1G split

582config MATH_EMULATION
583 bool "Math emulation"
584 ---help---
585 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
586 operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
587 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
588 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
589 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
590 coprocessor or this emulation.
591
592 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
593 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
594 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
595 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
596 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
597 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
598 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
599 intend to use this kernel on different machines.
600
601 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
602 emulation can be found in <file:arch/i386/math-emu/README>.
603
604 If you are not sure, say Y; apart from resulting in a 66 KB bigger
605 kernel, it won't hurt.

607config MTRR
608 bool "MTRR (Memory Type Range Register) support"
609 ---help---
610 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
611 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
612 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
613 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
614 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
615 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
616 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
617 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
618 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
619
620 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
621 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
622 as well:
623
624 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
625 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
626 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
627 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
628 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
629 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
630 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
631
632 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
633 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
634 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
635
636 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
637 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

776 ---help---
777 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
778 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
779 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
780 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
781 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
782 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
783
784 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
785 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
786
787 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
788 machines with more than one CPU.
789
790 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
791 and more information, read <file:Documentation/pm.txt> and the
792 Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
793 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
794
795 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
796 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
797 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
798
799 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
800 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
801 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
802 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
803
804 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
805 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
806 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
807 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
808 APM in your BIOS).
809
810 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
811 "weird" problems:
812
813 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
814 enabled.
815 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
816 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
817 the "no387" option to the kernel
818 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
819 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
820 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
821 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
822 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
823 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
824 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
825 10) install a better fan for the CPU
826 11) exchange RAM chips
827 12) exchange the motherboard.

847 State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
848 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
849 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
850 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
851 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
852 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
853 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
854 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba

865 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,
