237 you have a system with more than one CPU, say Y.

243 will run faster if you say N here.
244
245 Note that if you say Y here and choose architecture "586" or
246 "Pentium" under "Processor family", the kernel will not work on 486
247 architectures. Similarly, multiprocessor kernels for the "PPro"
248 architecture may not work on all Pentium based boards.

763
764 Some chipsets generate a legacy INTx "boot IRQ" when the IRQ
765 entry in the chipset's IO-APIC is masked (as, e.g. the RT
766 kernel does during interrupt handling). On chipsets where this
767 boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps
768 the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot
769 IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the
770 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this
771 way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise
772 the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring

785 Your processor must be a Pentium or newer to support this - check the

789 as a boot argument. Similarly, if MCE is built in and creates a

1011 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
1012 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
1013 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
1014 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
1015 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
1016 "high memory".

1018 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
1019 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
1020 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
1021 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
1022 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
1023 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
1024 possible.
1025

1027 answer "4GB" here.
1028
1029 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
1030 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
1031 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully

1034 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
1035
1036 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be

1266 setting "memory_corruption_check=1" on the kernel command

1312 prompt "Math emulation" if X86_32
1313 ---help---
1314 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
1315 operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
1316 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
1317 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
1318 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
1319 coprocessor or this emulation.
1320
1321 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1322 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1323 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1324 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1325 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1326 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1327 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1328 intend to use this kernel on different machines.
1329
1330 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
1331 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.
1332

1336 config MTRR
1337 bool "MTRR (Memory Type Range Register) support"
1338 ---help---
1339 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1340 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1341 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1342 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1343 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1344 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1345 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1346 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1347 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1348
1349 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1350 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1351 as well:
1352
1353 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1354 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1355 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1356 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1357 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1358 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1359 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1360
1361 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1362 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1363 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1364
1365 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1366 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1439 their own address space using seccomp. Once seccomp is

1457 overflows (that need to overwrite this return address) now also

1473 but it is independent of the system firmware. And like a reboot
1474 you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.
1475
1476 The name comes from the similarity to the exec system call.
1477
1478 It is an ongoing process to be certain the hardware in a machine
1479 is properly shutdown, so do not be surprised if this code does not
1480 initially work for you. It may help to enable device hotplugging

1510 This gives the physical address where the kernel is loaded.
1511
1512 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
1513 bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and
1514 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
1515 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1516 address.
1517
1518 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1519 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1520 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1521 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1522 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1523 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1524 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1525 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
1526
1527 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump,
1528 leave the value here unchanged to 0x1000000 and set
1529 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux
1530 for capturing the crash dump change this value to start of
1531 the reserved region. In other words, it can be set based on
1532 the "X" value as specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM"
1533 command line boot parameter passed to the panic-ed
1534 kernel. Please take a look at Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt
1535 for more details about crash dumps.
1536
1537 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1538 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1539 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1540 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1541 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1542 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
1543 line.
1544
1545 Don't change this unless you know what you are doing.

1581 address aligned to above value and run from there.
1582
1583 If bootloader loads the kernel at a non-aligned address and
1584 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is not set, kernel will ignore the run time
1585 load address and decompress itself to the address it has been

1693 ---help---
1694 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
1695 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
1696 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
1697 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
1698 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
1699 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
1700
1701 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
1702 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
1703
1704 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
1705 machines with more than one CPU.
1706
1707 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
1708 and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/pm.txt> and the
1709 Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
1710 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
1711
1712 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
1713 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
1714 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
1715
1716 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
1717 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
1718 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
1719 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
1720
1721 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
1722 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
1723 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
1724 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
1725 APM in your BIOS).
1726
1727 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
1728 "weird" problems:
1729
1730 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
1731 enabled.
1732 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
1733 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
1734 the "no387" option to the kernel
1735 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
1736 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1737 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1738 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1739 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1740 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1741 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
1742 10) install a better fan for the CPU
1743 11) exchange RAM chips
1744 12) exchange the motherboard.
1745
1746 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
1747 module will be called apm.

1753 ---help---
1754 This option will ignore USER SUSPEND requests. On machines with a
1755 compliant APM BIOS, you want to say N. However, on the NEC Versa M
1756 series notebooks, it is necessary to say Y because of a BIOS bug.

1759 bool "Enable PM at boot time"
1760 ---help---
1761 Enable APM features at boot time. From page 36 of the APM BIOS
1762 specification: "When disabled, the APM BIOS does not automatically
1763 power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend
1764 State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
1765 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
1766 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
1767 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
1768 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
1769 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
1770 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
1771 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba
1772 T400CDT. This is off by default since most machines do fine without
1773 this feature.
1774
1775 config APM_CPU_IDLE
1776 bool "Make CPU Idle calls when idle"
1777 ---help---
1778 Enable calls to APM CPU Idle/CPU Busy inside the kernel's idle loop.
1779 On some machines, this can activate improved power savings, such as
1780 a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
1781 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,
1782 333 mS). On some machines, this will cause a hang at boot time or
1783 whenever the CPU becomes idle. (On machines with more than one CPU,
1784 this option does nothing.)

1790 turn off the LCD backlight when the screen blanker of the Linux
1791 virtual console blanks the screen. Note that this is only used by
1792 the virtual console screen blanker, and won't turn off the backlight
1793 when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
1794 do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
1795 option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your
1796 backlight at all, or it might print a lot of errors to the console,
1797 especially if you are using gpm.

1801 ---help---
1802 Normally we disable external interrupts while we are making calls to
1803 the APM BIOS as a measure to lessen the effects of a badly behaving
1804 BIOS implementation. The BIOS should reenable interrupts if it
1805 needs to. Unfortunately, some BIOSes do not -- especially those in
1806 many of the newer IBM Thinkpads. If you experience hangs when you
1807 suspend, try setting this to Y. Otherwise, say N.

1847 If you choose "Any", the kernel will try MMCONFIG, then the
