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

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

1113 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
1114 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4

1123 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
1124 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
1125 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
1126 possible.

1412 number of BIOSes are known to corrupt that memory range
1413 during events such as suspend/resume or monitor cable
1414 insertion, so it must not be used by the kernel.

1417 trust the BIOS to get all its memory reservations and usages
1418 right. If you know your BIOS have problems beyond the
1419 default 64K area, you can set this to 640 to avoid using the
1420 entire low memory range.
1421

1423 not work or there's kernel crashes after certain hardware
1424 hotplug events) then you might want to enable
1425 X86_CHECK_BIOS_CORRUPTION=y to allow the kernel to check

1436 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
1437 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
1438 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
1439 coprocessor or this emulation.

1441 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1442 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1443 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1444 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1445 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1446 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1447 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1448 intend to use this kernel on different machines.

1460 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1461 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1462 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1463 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1464 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1465 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1466 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1467 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1468 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1469
1470 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1471 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1472 as well:
1473
1474 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1475 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1476 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1477 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1478 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1479 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1480 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1481
1482 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1483 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1484 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1485
1486 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1487 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1648 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
1649 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1650 address.
1651
1652 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1653 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1654 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1655 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1656 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1657 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1658 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1659 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
1660
1661 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump,
1662 leave the value here unchanged to 0x1000000 and set
1663 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux
1664 for capturing the crash dump change this value to start of
1665 the reserved region. In other words, it can be set based on
1666 the "X" value as specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM"
1667 command line boot parameter passed to the panic-ed
1668 kernel. Please take a look at Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt
1669 for more details about crash dumps.
1670
1671 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1672 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1673 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1674 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1675 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1676 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
1677 line.

1877 ---help---
1878 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
1879 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
1880 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
1881 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
1882 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
1883 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
1884
1885 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
1886 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
1887
1888 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
1889 machines with more than one CPU.
1890
1891 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
1892 and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/apm-acpi.txt>
1893 and the Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
1894 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
1895
1896 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
1897 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
1898 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
1899
1900 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
1901 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
1902 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
1903 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
1904
1905 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
1906 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
1907 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
1908 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
1909 APM in your BIOS).
1910
1911 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
1912 "weird" problems:
1913
1914 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
1915 enabled.
1916 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
1917 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
1918 the "no387" option to the kernel
1919 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
1920 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1921 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1922 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1923 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1924 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1925 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
1926 10) install a better fan for the CPU
1927 11) exchange RAM chips
1928 12) exchange the motherboard.

1948 State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
1949 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
1950 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
1951 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
1952 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
1953 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
1954 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
1955 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba

1965 a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
1966 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,

1978 when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
1979 do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this

2214 At present this just sets up LEDs for GPIO control on
2215 ALIX2/3/6 boards. However, other system specific setup should
2216 get added here.
2217
2218 Note: You must still enable the drivers for GPIO and LED support
2219 (GPIO_CS5535 & LEDS_GPIO) to actually use the LEDs

2267 help
2268 Firmwares often provide initial graphics framebuffers so the BIOS,
2269 bootloader or kernel can show basic video-output during boot for
2270 user-guidance and debugging. Historically, x86 used the VESA BIOS
2271 Extensions and EFI-framebuffers for this, which are mostly limited
2272 to x86.
2273 This option, if enabled, marks VGA/VBE/EFI framebuffers as generic
2274 framebuffers so the new generic system-framebuffer drivers can be
2275 used on x86. If the framebuffer is not compatible with the generic
2276 modes, it is adverticed as fallback platform framebuffer so legacy
2277 drivers like efifb, vesafb and uvesafb can pick it up.
2278 If this option is not selected, all system framebuffers are always
2279 marked as fallback platform framebuffers as usual.
2280
2281 Note: Legacy fbdev drivers, including vesafb, efifb, uvesafb, will
2282 not be able to pick up generic system framebuffers if this option
2283 is selected. You are highly encouraged to enable simplefb as
2284 replacement if you select this option. simplefb can correctly deal
2285 with generic system framebuffers. But you should still keep vesafb
2286 and others enabled as fallback if a system framebuffer is
2287 incompatible with simplefb.

2289 If unsure, say Y.
