938 This option enables a workaround that fixes a source of
939 spurious interrupts. This is recommended when threaded
940 interrupt handling is used on systems where the generation of
941 superfluous "boot interrupts" cannot be disabled.
942
943 Some chipsets generate a legacy INTx "boot IRQ" when the IRQ
944 entry in the chipset's IO-APIC is masked (as, e.g. the RT
945 kernel does during interrupt handling). On chipsets where this
946 boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps
947 the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot
948 IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the
949 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this
950 way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise
951 the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring
952 down (vital) interrupt lines.
953
954 Only affects "broken" chipsets. Interrupt sharing may be
955 increased on these systems.

1210 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
1211 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
1212 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
1213 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
1214 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
1215 "high memory".
1216
1217 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
1218 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
1219 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
1220 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
1221 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
1222 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
1223 possible.
1224
1225 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
1226 answer "4GB" here.
1227
1228 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
1229 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
1230 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully
1231 supported by Linux, PAE mode is implemented on all recent Intel
1232 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
1233 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
1234
1235 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be
1236 auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option
1237 such as "mem=256M". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of
1238 your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the

1478 Periodically check for memory corruption in low memory, which
1479 is suspected to be caused by BIOS. Even when enabled in the
1480 configuration, it is disabled at runtime. Enable it by
1481 setting "memory_corruption_check=1" on the kernel command

1483 seconds; see the memory_corruption_check_size and
1484 memory_corruption_check_period parameters in
1485 Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt to adjust this.
1486
1487 When enabled with the default parameters, this option has
1488 almost no overhead, as it reserves a relatively small amount
1489 of memory and scans it infrequently. It both detects corruption
1490 and prevents it from affecting the running system.
1491
1492 It is, however, intended as a diagnostic tool; if repeatable
1493 BIOS-originated corruption always affects the same memory,
1494 you can use memmap= to prevent the kernel from using that

1538 ---help---
1539 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
1540 operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
1541 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
1542 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
1543 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
1544 coprocessor or this emulation.
1545
1546 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1547 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1548 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1549 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1550 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1551 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1552 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1553 intend to use this kernel on different machines.
1554
1555 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
1556 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.

506f1d07
SR
1564 ---help---
1565 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1566 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1567 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1568 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1569 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1570 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1571 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1572 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1573 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1574
1575 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1576 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1577 as well:
1578
1579 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1580 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1581 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1582 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1583 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1584 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1585 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1586
1587 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1588 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1589 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1590
1591 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1592 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1823 This gives the physical address where the kernel is loaded.

1825 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
1826 bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and

1828 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1829 address.

1831 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1832 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1833 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1834 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1835 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1836 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1837 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1838 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.

1840 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump,
1841 leave the value here unchanged to 0x1000000 and set
1842 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux
1843 for capturing the crash dump change this value to start of
1844 the reserved region. In other words, it can be set based on
1845 the "X" value as specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM"
1846 command line boot parameter passed to the panic-ed
1847 kernel. Please take a look at Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt
1848 for more details about crash dumps.

1849
1850 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1851 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1852 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1853 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1854 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1855 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the

2180 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
2181 the "no387" option to the kernel
2182 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
2183 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
2184 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
2185 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
2186 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>

2209 specification: "When disabled, the APM BIOS does not automatically
2210 power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend
2211 State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
2212 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
2213 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
2214 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
2215 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
2216 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
2217 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
2218 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba
2219 T400CDT. This is off by default since most machines do fine without
2220 this feature.

2227 On some machines, this can activate improved power savings, such as

2229 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,

2531 Firmwares often provide initial graphics framebuffers so the BIOS,

2534 Extensions and EFI-framebuffers for this, which are mostly limited
2535 to x86.
2536 This option, if enabled, marks VGA/VBE/EFI framebuffers as generic
2537 framebuffers so the new generic system-framebuffer drivers can be
2538 used on x86. If the framebuffer is not compatible with the generic
2539 modes, it is adverticed as fallback platform framebuffer so legacy
2540 drivers like efifb, vesafb and uvesafb can pick it up.
2541 If this option is not selected, all system framebuffers are always
2542 marked as fallback platform framebuffers as usual.

2544 Note: Legacy fbdev drivers, including vesafb, efifb, uvesafb, will
2545 not be able to pick up generic system framebuffers if this option
2546 is selected. You are highly encouraged to enable simplefb as
2547 replacement if you select this option. simplefb can correctly deal
