256 This enables support for systems with more than one CPU. If you have
257 a system with only one CPU, like most personal computers, say N. If
258 you have a system with more than one CPU, say Y.
259
260 If you say N here, the kernel will run on single and multiprocessor
261 machines, but will use only one CPU of a multiprocessor machine. If
262 you say Y here, the kernel will run on many, but not all,
263 singleprocessor machines. On a singleprocessor machine, the kernel
264 will run faster if you say N here.
265
266 Note that if you say Y here and choose architecture "586" or
267 "Pentium" under "Processor family", the kernel will not work on 486
268 architectures. Similarly, multiprocessor kernels for the "PPro"
269 architecture may not work on all Pentium based boards.
270
271 People using multiprocessor machines who say Y here should also say
272 Y to "Enhanced Real Time Clock Support", below. The "Advanced Power
273 Management" code will be disabled if you say Y here.

838 This option enables a workaround that fixes a source of
839 spurious interrupts. This is recommended when threaded
840 interrupt handling is used on systems where the generation of
841 superfluous "boot interrupts" cannot be disabled.
842
843 Some chipsets generate a legacy INTx "boot IRQ" when the IRQ
844 entry in the chipset's IO-APIC is masked (as, e.g. the RT
845 kernel does during interrupt handling). On chipsets where this
846 boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps
847 the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot
848 IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the
849 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this
850 way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise
851 the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring
852 down (vital) interrupt lines.

1040 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
1041 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
1042 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
1043 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
1044 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
1045 "high memory".
1046
1047 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
1048 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
1049 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
1050 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
1051 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
1052 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
1053 possible.
1054
1055 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
1056 answer "4GB" here.
1057
1058 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
1059 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
1060 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully
1061 supported by Linux, PAE mode is implemented on all recent Intel
1062 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
1063 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
1064
1065 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be
1066 auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option
1067 such as "mem=256M". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of
1068 your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the

1351 ---help---
1352 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
1353 operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
1354 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
1355 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
1356 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
1357 coprocessor or this emulation.
1358
1359 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1360 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1361 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1362 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1363 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1364 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1365 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1366 intend to use this kernel on different machines.
1367
1368 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
1369 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.
1370

1372 kernel, it won't hurt.

SR
1378 ---help---
1379 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1380 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1381 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1382 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1383 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1384 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1385 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1386 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1387 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1388
1389 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1390 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1391 as well:
1392
1393 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1394 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1395 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1396 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1397 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1398 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1399 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1400
1401 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1402 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1403 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1404
1405 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1406 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1551 This gives the physical address where the kernel is loaded.
1552
1553 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
1554 bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and
1555 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
1556 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1557 address.
1558
1559 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1560 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1561 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1562 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1563 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1564 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1565 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1566 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.

1568 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump,
1569 leave the value here unchanged to 0x1000000 and set
1570 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux
1571 for capturing the crash dump change this value to start of
1572 the reserved region. In other words, it can be set based on
1573 the "X" value as specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM"
1574 command line boot parameter passed to the panic-ed
1575 kernel. Please take a look at Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt
1576 for more details about crash dumps.
506f1d07
SR
1577
1578 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1579 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1580 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1581 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1582 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1583 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
1584 line.

1755 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
1756 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
1757 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
1758
1759 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
1760 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
1761 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
1762 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
1763
1764 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
1765 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
1766 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
1767 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
1768 APM in your BIOS).
1769
1770 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
1771 "weird" problems:
1772
1773 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
1774 enabled.
1775 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
1776 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
1777 the "no387" option to the kernel
1778 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
1779 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1780 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1781 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1782 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1783 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1784 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
1785 10) install a better fan for the CPU
1786 11) exchange RAM chips
1787 12) exchange the motherboard.

1804 Enable APM features at boot time. From page 36 of the APM BIOS
1805 specification: "When disabled, the APM BIOS does not automatically
1806 power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend
1807 State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
1808 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
1809 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
1810 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
1811 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
1812 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
1813 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
1814 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba
1815 T400CDT. This is off by default since most machines do fine without
1816 this feature.

SR
1821 Enable calls to APM CPU Idle/CPU Busy inside the kernel's idle loop.
1822 On some machines, this can activate improved power savings, such as
1823 a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
1824 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,
1825 333 mS). On some machines, this will cause a hang at boot time or
1826 whenever the CPU becomes idle. (On machines with more than one CPU,
1827 this option does nothing.)

1835 the virtual console screen blanker, and won't turn off the backlight
1836 when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
1837 do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
1838 option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your

1845 Normally we disable external interrupts while we are making calls to
1846 the APM BIOS as a measure to lessen the effects of a badly behaving
1847 BIOS implementation. The BIOS should reenable interrupts if it
1848 needs to. Unfortunately, some BIOSes do not -- especially those in
1849 many of the newer IBM Thinkpads. If you experience hangs when you
1850 suspend, try setting this to Y. Otherwise, say N.

1880 On PCI systems, the BIOS can be used to detect the PCI devices and

1882 have BIOS bugs and may crash if this is done. Also, some embedded

1884 detect the PCI hardware directly without using the BIOS.

1886 With this option, you can specify how Linux should detect the

1888 if you choose "Direct", the BIOS won't be used, and if you
1889 choose "MMConfig", then PCI Express MMCONFIG will be used.
1890 If you choose "Any", the kernel will try MMCONFIG, then the
1891 direct access method and falls back to the BIOS if that doesn't
