902 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this

1115 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
1116 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4

1122 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
1123 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
1124 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
1125 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
1126 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
1127 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
1128 possible.
1129

1175 than low memory, as it needs to be mapped into the kernel first.

1410 number of BIOSes are known to corrupt that memory range
1411 during events such as suspend/resume or monitor cable

1415 trust the BIOS to get all its memory reservations and usages
1416 right. If you know your BIOS have problems beyond the
1417 default 64K area, you can set this to 640 to avoid using the
1418 entire low memory range.

1421 not work or there's kernel crashes after certain hardware

1434 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
1435 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
1436 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
1437 coprocessor or this emulation.
1438
1439 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1440 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1441 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1442 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1443 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1444 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1445 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1446 intend to use this kernel on different machines.

1449 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.

1458 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1459 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1460 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1461 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1462 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1463 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1464 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1465 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1466 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1467
1468 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1469 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1470 as well:
1471
1472 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1473 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1474 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1475 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1476 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1477 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1478 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1479
1480 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1481 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1482 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1483
1484 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1485 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1670 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1671 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1672 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1673 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
1674
1675 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump,
1676 leave the value here unchanged to 0x1000000 and set
1677 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux
1678 for capturing the crash dump change this value to start of
1679 the reserved region. In other words, it can be set based on
1680 the "X" value as specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM"
1681 command line boot parameter passed to the panic-ed
1682 kernel. Please take a look at Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt
1683 for more details about crash dumps.
1684
1685 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1686 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1687 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1688 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1689 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1690 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
1691 line.

1730 If bootloader loads the kernel at a non-aligned address and

1883 ---help---
1884 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
1885 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
1886 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
1887 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
1888 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
1889 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
1890
1891 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
1892 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
1893
1894 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
1895 machines with more than one CPU.
1896
1897 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
1898 and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/apm-acpi.txt>
1899 and the Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
1900 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
1901
1902 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
1903 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
1904 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
1905
1906 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
1907 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
1908 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
1909 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
1910
1911 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
1912 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
1913 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
1914 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
1915 APM in your BIOS).
1916
1917 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
1918 "weird" problems:
1919
1920 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
1921 enabled.
1922 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
1923 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
1924 the "no387" option to the kernel
1925 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
1926 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1927 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1928 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1929 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1930 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1931 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
1932 10) install a better fan for the CPU
1933 11) exchange RAM chips
1934 12) exchange the motherboard.

1954 State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
1955 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
1956 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
1957 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
1958 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
1959 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
1960 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
1961 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba

1971 a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
1972 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,

2221 At present this just sets up LEDs for GPIO control on
2222 ALIX2/3/6 boards. However, other system specific setup should
2223 get added here.
2224
2225 Note: You must still enable the drivers for GPIO and LED support
2226 (GPIO_CS5535 & LEDS_GPIO) to actually use the LEDs
2227
2228 Note: You have to set alix.force=1 for boards with Award BIOS.
