332 than one CPU, say Y.
333
334 If you say N here, the kernel will run on uni- and multiprocessor

336 you say Y here, the kernel will run on many, but not all,
337 uniprocessor machines. On a uniprocessor machine, the kernel
338 will run faster if you say N here.
339
340 Note that if you say Y here and choose architecture "586" or
341 "Pentium" under "Processor family", the kernel will not work on 486
342 architectures. Similarly, multiprocessor kernels for the "PPro"
343 architecture may not work on all Pentium based boards.

345 People using multiprocessor machines who say Y here should also say
346 Y to "Enhanced Real Time Clock Support", below. The "Advanced Power

1233 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
1234 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
1235 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
1236 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
1237 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
1238 "high memory".
1239
1240 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
1241 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
1242 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
1243 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
1244 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
1245 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
1246 possible.
1247
1248 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
1249 answer "4GB" here.
1250
1251 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
1252 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
1253 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully
1254 supported by Linux, PAE mode is implemented on all recent Intel
1255 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
1256 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
1257
1258 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be
1259 auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option
1260 such as "mem=256M". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of
1261 your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the

1592 ---help---
1593 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1594 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1595 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1596 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1597 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1598 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1599 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1600 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1601 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1602
1603 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1604 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1605 as well:
1606
1607 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1608 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1609 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1610 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1611 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1612 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1613 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1614
1615 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1616 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1617 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1618
1619 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll

1868 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then

1870 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
1871 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1872 address.
1873
1874 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1875 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1876 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1877 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1878 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1879 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1880 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1881 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
1882
1883 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump,
1884 leave the value here unchanged to 0x1000000 and set
1885 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux
1886 for capturing the crash dump change this value to start of
1887 the reserved region. In other words, it can be set based on
1888 the "X" value as specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM"
1889 command line boot parameter passed to the panic-ed
1890 kernel. Please take a look at Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt
1891 for more details about crash dumps.
1892
1893 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1894 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1895 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1896 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1897 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1898 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
1899 line.

1911

1913 must live at a different physical address than the primary

1925 In support of Kernel Address Space Layout Randomization (KASLR),
1926 this randomizes the physical address at which the kernel image
1927 is decompressed and the virtual address where the kernel
1928 image is mapped, as a security feature that deters exploit
1929 attempts relying on knowledge of the location of kernel
1930 code internals.
1931
1932 On 64-bit, the kernel physical and virtual addresses are
1933 randomized separately. The physical address will be anywhere
1934 between 16MB and the top of physical memory (up to 64TB). The
1935 virtual address will be randomized from 16MB up to 1GB (9 bits
1936 of entropy). Note that this also reduces the memory space
1937 available to kernel modules from 1.5GB to 1GB.
1938
1939 On 32-bit, the kernel physical and virtual addresses are
1940 randomized together. They will be randomized from 16MB up to
1941 512MB (8 bits of entropy).
1942
1943 Entropy is generated using the RDRAND instruction if it is
1944 supported. If RDTSC is supported, its value is mixed into
1945 the entropy pool as well. If neither RDRAND nor RDTSC are
1946 supported, then entropy is read from the i8254 timer. The
1947 usable entropy is limited by the kernel being built using
1948 2GB addressing, and that PHYSICAL_ALIGN must be at a
1949 minimum of 2MB. As a result, only 10 bits of entropy are
1950 theoretically possible, but the implementations are further
1951 limited due to memory layouts.
1952
1953 If CONFIG_HIBERNATE is also enabled, KASLR is disabled at boot
1954 time. To enable it, boot with "kaslr" on the kernel command

2198 Linux can allow user programs to install a per-process x86
2199 Local Descriptor Table (LDT) using the modify_ldt(2) system
2200 call. This is required to run 16-bit or segmented code such as
2201 DOSEMU or some Wine programs. It is also used by some very old
2202 threading libraries.
2203
2204 Enabling this feature adds a small amount of overhead to
2205 context switches and increases the low-level kernel attack
2206 surface. Disabling it removes the modify_ldt(2) system call.

2253 ---help---
2254 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
2255 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
2256 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
2257 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
2258 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
2259 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
2260
2261 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
2262 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
2263
2264 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
2265 machines with more than one CPU.
2266
2267 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
2268 and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/apm-acpi.txt>
2269 and the Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
2270 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
2271
2272 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
2273 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
2274 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
2275
2276 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
2277 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
2278 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
2279 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
2280
2281 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
2282 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
2283 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
2284 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
2285 APM in your BIOS).
2286
2287 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
2288 "weird" problems:
2289
2290 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
2291 enabled.
2292 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
2293 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
2294 the "no387" option to the kernel
2295 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
2296 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
2297 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
2298 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
2299 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
2300 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
2301 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
2302 10) install a better fan for the CPU
2303 11) exchange RAM chips
2304 12) exchange the motherboard.

2307 module will be called apm.

2323 power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend
2324 State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
2325 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
2326 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
2327 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
2328 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
2329 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
2330 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
2331 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba

2340 On some machines, this can activate improved power savings, such as
2341 a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
2342 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,
2343 333 mS). On some machines, this will cause a hang at boot time or

2353 the virtual console screen blanker, and won't turn off the backlight
2354 when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
2355 do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
2356 option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your

2749 ---help---
2750 Adds support for the Intel Volume Management Device (VMD). VMD is a
2751 secondary PCI host bridge that allows PCI Express root ports,
2752 and devices attached to them, to be removed from the default
2753 PCI domain and placed within the VMD domain. This provides
2754 more bus resources than are otherwise possible with a
2755 single domain. If you know your system provides one of these and
2756 has devices attached to it, say Y; if you are not sure, say N.
