721 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
722 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
723 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
724 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
725 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
726 "high memory".
727
728 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
729 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
730 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
731 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
732 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
733 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
734 possible.
735
736 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
737 answer "4GB" here.
738
739 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
740 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
741 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully

743 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
744 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!

950 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
951 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
952 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
953 coprocessor or this emulation.
954
955 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
956 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
957 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
958 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
959 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
960 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
961 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
962 intend to use this kernel on different machines.

964 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
965 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.

972 ---help---
973 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
974 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
975 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
976 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
977 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
978 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
979 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
980 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
981 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
982
983 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
984 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
985 as well:
986
987 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
988 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
989 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
990 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
991 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
992 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
993 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
994
995 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
996 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
997 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
998
999 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1000 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1126 Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux for capturing the crash dump
1127 change this value to start of the reserved region (Typically 16MB
1128 0x1000000). In other words, it can be set based on the "X" value as
1129 specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM" command line boot parameter
1130 passed to the panic-ed kernel. Typically this parameter is set as
1131 crashkernel=64M@16M. Please take a look at
1132 Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt for more details about crash dumps.
1133
1134 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1135 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1136 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1137 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1138 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1139 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
1140 line.

1238 ---help---
1239 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
1240 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
1241 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
1242 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
1243 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
1244 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
1245
1246 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
1247 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
1248
1249 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
1250 machines with more than one CPU.
1251
1252 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
1253 and more information, read <file:Documentation/pm.txt> and the
1254 Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
1255 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
1256
1257 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
1258 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
1259 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
1260
1261 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
1262 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
1263 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
1264 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
1265
1266 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
1267 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
1268 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
1269 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
1270 APM in your BIOS).
1271
1272 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
1273 "weird" problems:
1274
1275 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
1276 enabled.
1277 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
1278 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
1279 the "no387" option to the kernel
1280 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
1281 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1282 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1283 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1284 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1285 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1286 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
1287 10) install a better fan for the CPU
1288 11) exchange RAM chips
1289 12) exchange the motherboard.

1310 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this

1312 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
1313 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
1314 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
1315 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
1316 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba

1326 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,
