339 than one CPU, say Y.
340
341 If you say N here, the kernel will run on uni- and multiprocessor
342 machines, but will use only one CPU of a multiprocessor machine. If
343 you say Y here, the kernel will run on many, but not all,
344 uniprocessor machines. On a uniprocessor machine, the kernel
345 will run faster if you say N here.
346
347 Note that if you say Y here and choose architecture "586" or
348 "Pentium" under "Processor family", the kernel will not work on 486
349 architectures. Similarly, multiprocessor kernels for the "PPro"
350 architecture may not work on all Pentium based boards.

352 People using multiprocessor machines who say Y here should also say
353 Y to "Enhanced Real Time Clock Support", below. The "Advanced Power
354 Management" code will be disabled if you say Y here.

1247 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
1248 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
1249 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
1250 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
1251 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
1252 "high memory".
1253
1254 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
1255 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
1256 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
1257 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
1258 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
1259 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
1260 possible.
1261
1262 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
1263 answer "4GB" here.
1264
1265 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
1266 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
1267 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully
1268 supported by Linux, PAE mode is implemented on all recent Intel
1269 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
1270 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
1271
1272 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be
1273 auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option
1274 such as "mem=256M". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of

1607 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1608 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1609 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1610 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1611 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1612 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1613 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1614 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1615 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1616
1617 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1618 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1619 as well:
1620
1621 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1622 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1623 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1624 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1625 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1626 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1627 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1628
1629 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1630 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1631 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1632
1633 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll

1884 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
1885 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1886 address.
1887
1888 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1889 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1890 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1891 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1892 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1893 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1894 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1895 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
1896
1897 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump,
1898 leave the value here unchanged to 0x1000000 and set
1899 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux
1900 for capturing the crash dump change this value to start of
1901 the reserved region. In other words, it can be set based on
1902 the "X" value as specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM"
1903 command line boot parameter passed to the panic-ed
1904 kernel. Please take a look at Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt
1905 for more details about crash dumps.
1906
1907 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1908 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1909 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1910 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1911 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1912 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
1913 line.

2192 Local Descriptor Table (LDT) using the modify_ldt(2) system
2193 call. This is required to run 16-bit or segmented code such as
2194 DOSEMU or some Wine programs. It is also used by some very old
2195 threading libraries.
2196
2197 Enabling this feature adds a small amount of overhead to
2198 context switches and increases the low-level kernel attack
2199 surface. Disabling it removes the modify_ldt(2) system call.

2246 ---help---
2247 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
2248 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
2249 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
2250 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
2251 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
2252 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
2253
2254 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
2255 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
2256
2257 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
2258 machines with more than one CPU.
2259
2260 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
2261 and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/apm-acpi.txt>
2262 and the Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
2263 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
2264
2265 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
2266 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
2267 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
2268
2269 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
2270 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
2271 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
2272 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
2273
2274 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
2275 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
2276 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
2277 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
2278 APM in your BIOS).
2279
2280 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
2281 "weird" problems:
2282
2283 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
2284 enabled.
2285 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
2286 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
2287 the "no387" option to the kernel
2288 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
2289 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
2290 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
2291 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
2292 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
2293 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
2294 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
2295 10) install a better fan for the CPU
2296 11) exchange RAM chips
2297 12) exchange the motherboard.

2316 power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend
2317 State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
2318 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
2319 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
2320 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
2321 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
2322 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
2323 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
2324 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba

2333 On some machines, this can activate improved power savings, such as
2334 a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
2335 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,
2336 333 mS). On some machines, this will cause a hang at boot time or

2346 the virtual console screen blanker, and won't turn off the backlight
2347 when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
2348 do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
2349 option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your

2638 This option, if enabled, marks VGA/VBE/EFI framebuffers as generic

2643 If this option is not selected, all system framebuffers are always

2734 Adds support for the Intel Volume Management Device (VMD). VMD is a
2735 secondary PCI host bridge that allows PCI Express root ports,
2736 and devices attached to them, to be removed from the default
2737 PCI domain and placed within the VMD domain. This provides
2738 more bus resources than are otherwise possible with a
2739 single domain. If you know your system provides one of these and
2740 has devices attached to it, say Y; if you are not sure, say N.
