926 This option enables a workaround that fixes a source of
927 spurious interrupts. This is recommended when threaded
928 interrupt handling is used on systems where the generation of
929 superfluous "boot interrupts" cannot be disabled.
930
931 Some chipsets generate a legacy INTx "boot IRQ" when the IRQ
932 entry in the chipset's IO-APIC is masked (as, e.g. the RT
933 kernel does during interrupt handling). On chipsets where this
934 boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps
935 the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot
936 IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the
937 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this
938 way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise
939 the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring
940 down (vital) interrupt lines.
941
942 Only affects "broken" chipsets. Interrupt sharing may be
943 increased on these systems.

1180 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
1181 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
1182 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
1183 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
1184 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
1185 "high memory".
1186
1187 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
1188 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
1189 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
1190 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
1191 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
1192 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
1193 possible.
1194
1195 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
1196 answer "4GB" here.
1197
1198 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
1199 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
1200 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully

1202 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
1203 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
1204
1205 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be

1448 setting "memory_corruption_check=1" on the kernel command

1504 ---help---
1505 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
1506 operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
1507 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
1508 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
1509 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
1510 coprocessor or this emulation.
1511
1512 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1513 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1514 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1515 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1516 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1517 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1518 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1519 intend to use this kernel on different machines.

1522 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.

506f1d07
SR
1530 ---help---
1531 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1532 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1533 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1534 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1535 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1536 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1537 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1538 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1539 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1540
1541 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1542 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1543 as well:
1544
1545 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1546 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1547 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1548 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1549 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1550 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1551 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1552
1553 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1554 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1555 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1556
1557 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1558 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1771 a specially reserved region and then later executed after
1772 a crash by kdump/kexec. The crash dump kernel must be compiled
1773 to a memory address not used by the main kernel or BIOS using
1774 PHYSICAL_START, or it must be built as a relocatable image

1789 This gives the physical address where the kernel is loaded.
1790
1791 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
1792 bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and
1793 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
1794 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1795 address.
1796
1797 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1798 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1799 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1800 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1801 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1802 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1803 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1804 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
1805

1806 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump,
1807 leave the value here unchanged to 0x1000000 and set
1808 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux
1809 for capturing the crash dump change this value to start of
1810 the reserved region. In other words, it can be set based on
1811 the "X" value as specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM"
1812 command line boot parameter passed to the panic-ed
1813 kernel. Please take a look at Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt
1814 for more details about crash dumps.
506f1d07
SR
1815
1816 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1817 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1818 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1819 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1820 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1821 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
1822 line.

2112
2113 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
2114 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
2115 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
2116 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.

2118 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
2119 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
2120 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
2121 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
2122 APM in your BIOS).
2123
2124 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
2125 "weird" problems:
2126
2127 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
2128 enabled.
2129 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
2130 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
2131 the "no387" option to the kernel
2132 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
2133 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
2134 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
2135 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
2136 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
2137 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
2138 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
2139 10) install a better fan for the CPU
2140 11) exchange RAM chips

2200 Normally we disable external interrupts while we are making calls to
2201 the APM BIOS as a measure to lessen the effects of a badly behaving
2202 BIOS implementation. The BIOS should reenable interrupts if it
2203 needs to. Unfortunately, some BIOSes do not -- especially those in
2204 many of the newer IBM Thinkpads. If you experience hangs when you

2234 On PCI systems, the BIOS can be used to detect the PCI devices and
2235 determine their configuration. However, some old PCI motherboards
2236 have BIOS bugs and may crash if this is done. Also, some embedded
2237 PCI-based systems don't have any BIOS at all. Linux can also try to
2238 detect the PCI hardware directly without using the BIOS.
2239
2240 With this option, you can specify how Linux should detect the
2241 PCI devices. If you choose "BIOS", the BIOS will be used,
2242 if you choose "Direct", the BIOS won't be used, and if you
2243 choose "MMConfig", then PCI Express MMCONFIG will be used.
2244 If you choose "Any", the kernel will try MMCONFIG, then the
2245 direct access method and falls back to the BIOS if that doesn't
2246 work. If unsure, go with the default, which is "Any".

2480 help
2481 Firmwares often provide initial graphics framebuffers so the BIOS,
2482 bootloader or kernel can show basic video-output during boot for
2483 user-guidance and debugging. Historically, x86 used the VESA BIOS
2484 Extensions and EFI-framebuffers for this, which are mostly limited
2485 to x86.
2486 This option, if enabled, marks VGA/VBE/EFI framebuffers as generic
2487 framebuffers so the new generic system-framebuffer drivers can be
2488 used on x86. If the framebuffer is not compatible with the generic
2489 modes, it is adverticed as fallback platform framebuffer so legacy
2490 drivers like efifb, vesafb and uvesafb can pick it up.
2491 If this option is not selected, all system framebuffers are always
2492 marked as fallback platform framebuffers as usual.
2493
2494 Note: Legacy fbdev drivers, including vesafb, efifb, uvesafb, will
2495 not be able to pick up generic system framebuffers if this option
2496 is selected. You are highly encouraged to enable simplefb as
2497 replacement if you select this option. simplefb can correctly deal
2498 with generic system framebuffers. But you should still keep vesafb
2499 and others enabled as fallback if a system framebuffer is
2500 incompatible with simplefb.
