248 Note that if you say Y here and choose architecture "586" or
249 "Pentium" under "Processor family", the kernel will not work on 486
250 architectures. Similarly, multiprocessor kernels for the "PPro"
251 architecture may not work on all Pentium based boards.

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

787 Your processor must be a Pentium or newer to support this - check the
788 flags in /proc/cpuinfo for mce. Note that some older Pentium systems
789 have a design flaw which leads to false MCE events - hence MCE is
790 disabled on all P5 processors, unless explicitly enabled with "mce"
791 as a boot argument. Similarly, if MCE is built in and creates a
792 problem on some new non-standard machine, you can boot with "nomce"

1013 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
1014 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
1015 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
1016 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
1017 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
1018 "high memory".
1019
1020 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
1021 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
1022 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
1023 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
1024 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
1025 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
1026 possible.
1027

1029 answer "4GB" here.
1030
1031 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
1032 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.

1036 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
1037

1268 setting "memory_corruption_check=1" on the kernel command

1314 prompt "Math emulation" if X86_32
1315 ---help---
1316 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
1317 operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
1318 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
1319 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
1320 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
1321 coprocessor or this emulation.
1322
1323 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1324 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1325 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1326 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1327 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1328 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1329 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1330 intend to use this kernel on different machines.
1331
1332 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
1333 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.
1334

1338 config MTRR
1339 bool "MTRR (Memory Type Range Register) support"
1340 ---help---
1341 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1342 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1343 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1344 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1345 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1346 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1347 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1348 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1349 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1350
1351 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1352 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1353 as well:
1354
1355 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1356 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1357 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1358 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1359 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1360 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1361 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1362
1363 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1364 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1365 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1366
1367 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1368 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1441 their own address space using seccomp. Once seccomp is

1459 overflows (that need to overwrite this return address) now also

1461 neutralized via a kernel panic.

1475 but it is independent of the system firmware. And like a reboot
1476 you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.
1477
1478 The name comes from the similarity to the exec system call.
1479
1480 It is an ongoing process to be certain the hardware in a machine
1481 is properly shutdown, so do not be surprised if this code does not
1482 initially work for you. It may help to enable device hotplugging

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

1584
1585 If bootloader loads the kernel at a non-aligned address and

1587 load address and decompress itself to the address it has been

1695 ---help---
1696 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
1697 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
1698 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
1699 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
1700 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
1701 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
1702
1703 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
1704 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
1705
1706 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
1707 machines with more than one CPU.
1708
1709 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
1710 and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/pm.txt> and the
1711 Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
1712 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
1713
1714 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
1715 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
1716 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
1717
1718 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
1719 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
1720 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
1721 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
1722
1723 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
1724 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
1725 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
1726 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
1727 APM in your BIOS).
1728
1729 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
1730 "weird" problems:
1731
1732 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
1733 enabled.
1734 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
1735 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
1736 the "no387" option to the kernel
1737 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
1738 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1739 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1740 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1741 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1742 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1743 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
1744 10) install a better fan for the CPU
1745 11) exchange RAM chips
1746 12) exchange the motherboard.
1747
1748 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
1749 module will be called apm.

1754 bool "Ignore USER SUSPEND"
1755 ---help---
1756 This option will ignore USER SUSPEND requests. On machines with a
1757 compliant APM BIOS, you want to say N. However, on the NEC Versa M
1758 series notebooks, it is necessary to say Y because of a BIOS bug.

1761 bool "Enable PM at boot time"
1762 ---help---
1763 Enable APM features at boot time. From page 36 of the APM BIOS
1764 specification: "When disabled, the APM BIOS does not automatically
1765 power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend
1766 State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
1767 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
1768 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
1769 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
1770 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
1771 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
1772 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
1773 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba
1774 T400CDT. This is off by default since most machines do fine without
1775 this feature.

1777 config APM_CPU_IDLE
1778 bool "Make CPU Idle calls when idle"
1779 ---help---
1780 Enable calls to APM CPU Idle/CPU Busy inside the kernel's idle loop.
1781 On some machines, this can activate improved power savings, such as
1782 a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
1783 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,
1784 333 mS). On some machines, this will cause a hang at boot time or
1785 whenever the CPU becomes idle. (On machines with more than one CPU,
1786 this option does nothing.)

1792 turn off the LCD backlight when the screen blanker of the Linux
1793 virtual console blanks the screen. Note that this is only used by
1794 the virtual console screen blanker, and won't turn off the backlight
1795 when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
1796 do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
1797 option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your
1798 backlight at all, or it might print a lot of errors to the console,
1799 especially if you are using gpm.

1802 bool "Allow interrupts during APM BIOS calls"
1803 ---help---
1804 Normally we disable external interrupts while we are making calls to
1805 the APM BIOS as a measure to lessen the effects of a badly behaving
1806 BIOS implementation. The BIOS should reenable interrupts if it
1807 needs to. Unfortunately, some BIOSes do not -- especially those in
1808 many of the newer IBM Thinkpads. If you experience hangs when you
1809 suspend, try setting this to Y. Otherwise, say N.

1849 If you choose "Any", the kernel will try MMCONFIG, then the
