331 than one CPU, say Y.
332
333 If you say N here, the kernel will run on uni- and multiprocessor
334 machines, but will use only one CPU of a multiprocessor machine. If
335 you say Y here, the kernel will run on many, but not all,
336 uniprocessor machines. On a uniprocessor machine, the kernel
337 will run faster if you say N here.
338
339 Note that if you say Y here and choose architecture "586" or
340 "Pentium" under "Processor family", the kernel will not work on 486
341 architectures. Similarly, multiprocessor kernels for the "PPro"
342 architecture may not work on all Pentium based boards.
343
344 People using multiprocessor machines who say Y here should also say
345 Y to "Enhanced Real Time Clock Support", below. The "Advanced Power
346 Management" code will be disabled if you say Y here.

982 IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the
983 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this

1232 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
1233 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
1234 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
1235 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
1236 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
1237 "high memory".
1238
1239 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
1240 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
1241 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
1242 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
1243 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
1244 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
1245 possible.
1246
1247 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
1248 answer "4GB" here.
1249
1250 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
1251 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
1252 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully
1253 supported by Linux, PAE mode is implemented on all recent Intel
1254 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
1255 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
1256
1257 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be
1258 auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option
1259 such as "mem=256M". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of

1591 ---help---
1592 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1593 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1594 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1595 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1596 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1597 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1598 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1599 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1600 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1601
1602 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1603 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1604 as well:
1605
1606 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1607 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1608 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1609 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1610 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1611 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1612 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1613
1614 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1615 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1616 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1617
1618 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll

1867 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then

1869 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
1870 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1871 address.
1872
1873 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1874 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1875 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1876 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1877 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1878 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1879 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1880 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
1881
1882 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump,
1883 leave the value here unchanged to 0x1000000 and set
1884 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux
1885 for capturing the crash dump change this value to start of
1886 the reserved region. In other words, it can be set based on
1887 the "X" value as specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM"
1888 command line boot parameter passed to the panic-ed
1889 kernel. Please take a look at Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt
1890 for more details about crash dumps.
1891
1892 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1893 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1894 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1895 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1896 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1897 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
1898 line.

1924 In support of Kernel Address Space Layout Randomization (KASLR),
1925 this randomizes the physical address at which the kernel image
1926 is decompressed and the virtual address where the kernel
1927 image is mapped, as a security feature that deters exploit
1928 attempts relying on knowledge of the location of kernel
1929 code internals.
1930
1931 On 64-bit, the kernel physical and virtual addresses are
1932 randomized separately. The physical address will be anywhere
1933 between 16MB and the top of physical memory (up to 64TB). The
1934 virtual address will be randomized from 16MB up to 1GB (9 bits
1935 of entropy). Note that this also reduces the memory space
1936 available to kernel modules from 1.5GB to 1GB.
1937
1938 On 32-bit, the kernel physical and virtual addresses are
1939 randomized together. They will be randomized from 16MB up to
1940 512MB (8 bits of entropy).
1941
1942 Entropy is generated using the RDRAND instruction if it is
1943 supported. If RDTSC is supported, its value is mixed into
1944 the entropy pool as well. If neither RDRAND nor RDTSC are
1945 supported, then entropy is read from the i8254 timer. The
1946 usable entropy is limited by the kernel being built using
1947 2GB addressing, and that PHYSICAL_ALIGN must be at a
1948 minimum of 2MB. As a result, only 10 bits of entropy are
1949 theoretically possible, but the implementations are further
1950 limited due to memory layouts.
1951
1952 If CONFIG_HIBERNATE is also enabled, KASLR is disabled at boot
1953 time. To enable it, boot with "kaslr" on the kernel command

2197 Linux can allow user programs to install a per-process x86
2198 Local Descriptor Table (LDT) using the modify_ldt(2) system
2199 call. This is required to run 16-bit or segmented code such as
2200 DOSEMU or some Wine programs. It is also used by some very old
2201 threading libraries.
2202
2203 Enabling this feature adds a small amount of overhead to
2204 context switches and increases the low-level kernel attack
2205 surface. Disabling it removes the modify_ldt(2) system call.

2252 ---help---
2253 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
2254 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
2255 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
2256 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
2257 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
2258 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
2259
2260 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
2261 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
2262
2263 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
2264 machines with more than one CPU.
2265
2266 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
2267 and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/apm-acpi.txt>
2268 and the Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
2269 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
2270
2271 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
2272 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
2273 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
2274
2275 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
2276 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
2277 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
2278 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
2279
2280 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
2281 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
2282 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
2283 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
2284 APM in your BIOS).
2285
2286 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
2287 "weird" problems:
2288
2289 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
2290 enabled.
2291 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
2292 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
2293 the "no387" option to the kernel
2294 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
2295 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
2296 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
2297 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
2298 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
2299 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
2300 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
2301 10) install a better fan for the CPU
2302 11) exchange RAM chips
2303 12) exchange the motherboard.

2306 module will be called apm.

2322 power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend
2323 State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
2324 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
2325 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
2326 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
2327 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
2328 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
2329 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
2330 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba

2339 On some machines, this can activate improved power savings, such as
2340 a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
2341 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,
2342 333 mS). On some machines, this will cause a hang at boot time or

2352 the virtual console screen blanker, and won't turn off the backlight
2353 when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
2354 do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
2355 option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your

2748 ---help---
2749 Adds support for the Intel Volume Management Device (VMD). VMD is a
2750 secondary PCI host bridge that allows PCI Express root ports,
2751 and devices attached to them, to be removed from the default
2752 PCI domain and placed within the VMD domain. This provides
2753 more bus resources than are otherwise possible with a
2754 single domain. If you know your system provides one of these and
2755 has devices attached to it, say Y; if you are not sure, say N.
