892 This option enables a workaround that fixes a source of
893 spurious interrupts. This is recommended when threaded
894 interrupt handling is used on systems where the generation of
895 superfluous "boot interrupts" cannot be disabled.
896
897 Some chipsets generate a legacy INTx "boot IRQ" when the IRQ
898 entry in the chipset's IO-APIC is masked (as, e.g. the RT
899 kernel does during interrupt handling). On chipsets where this
900 boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps
901 the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot
902 IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the
903 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this
904 way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise
905 the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring
906 down (vital) interrupt lines.
907
908 Only affects "broken" chipsets. Interrupt sharing may be
909 increased on these systems.

1128 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
1129 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
1130 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
1131 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
1132 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
1133 "high memory".
1134
1135 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
1136 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
1137 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
1138 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
1139 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
1140 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
1141 possible.
1142
1143 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
1144 answer "4GB" here.
1145
1146 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
1147 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
1148 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully
1149 supported by Linux, PAE mode is implemented on all recent Intel
1150 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
1151 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
1152
1153 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be
1154 auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option
1155 such as "mem=256M". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of
1156 your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the

1443 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
1444 operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
1445 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
1446 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
1447 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
1448 coprocessor or this emulation.
1449
1450 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1451 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1452 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1453 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1454 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1455 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1456 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1457 intend to use this kernel on different machines.

SR
1468 ---help---
1469 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1470 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1471 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1472 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1473 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1474 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1475 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1476 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1477 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1478
1479 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1480 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1481 as well:
1482
1483 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1484 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1485 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1486 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1487 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1488 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1489 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1490
1491 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1492 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1493 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1494
1495 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1496 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

2004 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different

2006 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
2007 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide

2010
2011 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
2012 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
2013
2014 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
2015 machines with more than one CPU.

2024 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
2025
2026 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
2027 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
2028 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
2029 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
2030
2031 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
2032 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
2033 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
2034 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
2035 APM in your BIOS).
2036
2037 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
2038 "weird" problems:
2039
2040 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
2041 enabled.
2042 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
2043 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
2044 the "no387" option to the kernel
2045 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
2046 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
2047 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
2048 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
2049 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
2050 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
2051 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
2052 10) install a better fan for the CPU
2053 11) exchange RAM chips

2392 bool "Mark VGA/VBE/EFI FB as generic system framebuffer"
2393 help
2394 Firmwares often provide initial graphics framebuffers so the BIOS,
2395 bootloader or kernel can show basic video-output during boot for
2396 user-guidance and debugging. Historically, x86 used the VESA BIOS
2397 Extensions and EFI-framebuffers for this, which are mostly limited
2398 to x86.
2399 This option, if enabled, marks VGA/VBE/EFI framebuffers as generic
2400 framebuffers so the new generic system-framebuffer drivers can be
2401 used on x86. If the framebuffer is not compatible with the generic
2402 modes, it is adverticed as fallback platform framebuffer so legacy
2403 drivers like efifb, vesafb and uvesafb can pick it up.
2404 If this option is not selected, all system framebuffers are always
2405 marked as fallback platform framebuffers as usual.
2406
2407 Note: Legacy fbdev drivers, including vesafb, efifb, uvesafb, will
2408 not be able to pick up generic system framebuffers if this option
2409 is selected. You are highly encouraged to enable simplefb as
2410 replacement if you select this option. simplefb can correctly deal
2411 with generic system framebuffers. But you should still keep vesafb
2412 and others enabled as fallback if a system framebuffer is
2413 incompatible with simplefb.
