67 The Extended Industry Standard Architecture (EISA) bus was
68 developed as an open alternative to the IBM MicroChannel bus.
70 The EISA bus provided some of the features of the IBM MicroChannel
71 bus while maintaining backward compatibility with cards made for
72 the older ISA bus. The EISA bus saw limited use between 1988 and
73 1995 when it was made obsolete by the PCI bus.
75 Say Y here if you are building a kernel for an EISA-based machine.
85 MicroChannel Architecture is found in some IBM PS/2 machines and
86 laptops. It is a bus system similar to PCI or ISA. See

982 bool "ARM errata: Stale prediction on replaced interworking branch"
985 This option enables the workaround for the 430973 Cortex-A8
986 (r1p0..r1p2) erratum. If a code sequence containing an ARM/Thumb
987 interworking branch is replaced with another code sequence at the
988 same virtual address, whether due to self-modifying code or virtual
989 to physical address re-mapping, Cortex-A8 does not recover from the
990 stale interworking branch prediction. This results in Cortex-A8
991 executing the new code sequence in the incorrect ARM or Thumb state.
992 The workaround enables the BTB/BTAC operations by setting ACTLR.IBE
993 and also flushes the branch target cache at every context switch.

995 available in non-secure mode.

998 bool "ARM errata: Processor deadlock when a false hazard is created"
1001 This option enables the workaround for the 458693 Cortex-A8 (r2p0)
1002 erratum. For very specific sequences of memory operations, it is
1003 possible for a hazard condition intended for a cache line to instead
1004 be incorrectly associated with a different cache line. This false
1005 hazard might then cause a processor deadlock. The workaround enables
1006 the L1 caching of the NEON accesses and disables the PLD instruction
1007 in the ACTLR register. Note that setting specific bits in the ACTLR
1008 register may not be available in non-secure mode.

1014 This option enables the workaround for the 460075 Cortex-A8 (r2p0)
1015 erratum. Any asynchronous access to the L2 cache may encounter a
1016 situation in which recent store transactions to the L2 cache are lost
1017 and overwritten with stale memory contents from external memory. The
1018 workaround disables the write-allocate mode for the L2 cache via the
1019 ACTLR register. Note that setting specific bits in the ACTLR register
1020 may not be available in non-secure mode.
1022 config PL310_ERRATA_588369
1023 bool "Clean & Invalidate maintenance operations do not invalidate clean lines"

1026 The PL310 L2 cache controller implements three types of Clean &
1027 Invalidate maintenance operations: by Physical Address
1028 (offset 0x7F0), by Index/Way (0x7F8) and by Way (0x7FC).
1029 They are architecturally defined to behave as the execution of a
1030 clean operation followed immediately by an invalidate operation,
1031 both performing to the same memory location. This functionality
1032 is not correctly implemented in PL310 as clean lines are not
1033 invalidated as a result of these operations. Note that this errata
1034 uses Texas Instrument's secure monitor api.

1210 bool "Use the ARM EABI to compile the kernel"
1212 This option allows for the kernel to be compiled using the latest
1213 ARM ABI (aka EABI). This is only useful if you are using a user
1214 space environment that is also compiled with EABI.
1216 Since there are major incompatibilities between the legacy ABI and
1217 EABI, especially with regard to structure member alignment, this
1218 option also changes the kernel syscall calling convention to
1219 disambiguate both ABIs and allow for backward compatibility support
1220 (selected with CONFIG_OABI_COMPAT).
1222 To use this you need GCC version 4.0.0 or later.
1225 bool "Allow old ABI binaries to run with this kernel (EXPERIMENTAL)"
1226 depends on AEABI && EXPERIMENTAL
1229 This option preserves the old syscall interface along with the

1231 intercept syscalls that have structure arguments which layout
1232 in memory differs between the legacy ABI and the new ARM EABI
1233 (only for non "thumb" binaries). This option adds a tiny
1234 overhead to all syscalls and produces a slightly larger kernel.
1235 If you know you'll be using only pure EABI user space then you
1236 can say N here. If this option is not selected and you attempt
1237 to execute a legacy ABI binary then the result will be

1267 The address space of ARM processors is only 4 Gigabytes large
1268 and it has to accommodate user address space, kernel address
1269 space as well as some memory mapped IO. That means that, if you
1270 have a large amount of physical memory and/or IO, not all of the
1271 memory can be "permanently mapped" by the kernel. The physical
1272 memory that is not permanently mapped is called "high memory".

1310 you are compiling a kernel for the EBSA-110 or the LART however, the

1327 debugging unstable kernels.

1354 ARM processors cannot fetch/store information which is not

1357 fetch/store instructions will be emulated in software if you say
1358 here, which has a severe performance impact. This is necessary for
1359 correct operation of some network protocols. With an IP-only

1371 A possible side effect is a slight increase in scheduling latency
1372 between threads sharing the same address space if they invoke
1373 such copy operations with large buffers.
1375 However, if the CPU data cache is using a write-allocate mode,
1376 this option is unlikely to provide any performance gain.

1401 decompressor is running. It must be large enough to hold the
1402 entire decompressed kernel plus an additional 128 KiB.
1403 Platforms which normally make use of ROM-able zImage formats
1404 normally set this to a suitable value in their defconfig file.

1409 bool "Compressed boot loader in ROM/flash"

1416 string "Default kernel command string"
1419 On some architectures (EBSA110 and CATS), there is currently no way
1420 for the boot loader to pass arguments to the kernel. For these
1421 architectures, you should supply some command-line options at build
1422 time by entering them here. As a minimum, you should specify the
1423 memory size and the root device (e.g., mem=64M root=/dev/nfs).
1426 bool "Kernel Execute-In-Place from ROM"
1427 depends on !ZBOOT_ROM
1429 Execute-In-Place allows the kernel to run from non-volatile storage
1430 directly addressable by the CPU, such as NOR flash. This saves RAM
1431 space since the text section of the kernel is not loaded from flash
1432 to RAM. Read-write sections, such as the data section and stack,
1433 are still copied to RAM. The XIP kernel is not compressed since
1434 it has to run directly from flash, so it will take more space to
1435 store it. The flash address used to link the kernel object files,
1436 and for storing it, is configuration dependent. Therefore, if you
1437 say Y here, you must know the proper physical address where to
1438 store the kernel image depending on your own flash memory usage.
1440 Also note that the make target becomes "make xipImage" rather than
1441 "make zImage" or "make Image". The final kernel binary to put in
1442 ROM memory will be arch/arm/boot/xipImage.

1459 kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your

1461 but it is independent of the system firmware. And like a reboot
1462 you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.
1464 It is an ongoing process to be certain the hardware in a machine
1465 is properly shutdown, so do not be surprised if this code does not
