936 This option enables a workaround that fixes a source of
937 spurious interrupts. This is recommended when threaded
938 interrupt handling is used on systems where the generation of
939 superfluous "boot interrupts" cannot be disabled.
940
941 Some chipsets generate a legacy INTx "boot IRQ" when the IRQ
942 entry in the chipset's IO-APIC is masked (as, e.g. the RT
943 kernel does during interrupt handling). On chipsets where this
944 boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps
945 the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot
946 IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the
947 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this
948 way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise
949 the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring
950 down (vital) interrupt lines.
951
952 Only affects "broken" chipsets. Interrupt sharing may be
953 increased on these systems.

1190 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
1191 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
1192 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
1193 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
1194 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
1195 "high memory".
1196
1197 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
1198 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
1199 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
1200 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
1201 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
1202 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
1203 possible.
1204
1205 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
1206 answer "4GB" here.
1207
1208 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
1209 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
1210 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully

1212 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
1213 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
1214
1215 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be

1445 Periodically check for memory corruption in low memory, which
1446 is suspected to be caused by BIOS. Even when enabled in the
1447 configuration, it is disabled at runtime. Enable it by
1448 setting "memory_corruption_check=1" on the kernel command
1449 line. By default it scans the low 64k of memory every 60
1450 seconds; see the memory_corruption_check_size and
1451 memory_corruption_check_period parameters in
1452 Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt to adjust this.
1453
1454 When enabled with the default parameters, this option has
1455 almost no overhead, as it reserves a relatively small amount
1456 of memory and scans it infrequently. It both detects corruption
1457 and prevents it from affecting the running system.
1458
1459 It is, however, intended as a diagnostic tool; if repeatable
1460 BIOS-originated corruption always affects the same memory,
1461 you can use memmap= to prevent the kernel from using that

1483 number of BIOSes are known to corrupt that memory range

1503 prompt "Math emulation" if X86_32
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.
1520
1521 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
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.

1774 a specially reserved region and then later executed after
1775 a crash by kdump/kexec. The crash dump kernel must be compiled

1792 This gives the physical address where the kernel is loaded.

1794 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
1795 bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and
1796 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
1797 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1798 address.
1799
1800 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1801 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1802 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1803 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1804 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1805 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1806 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1807 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.

1809 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump,
1810 leave the value here unchanged to 0x1000000 and set
1811 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux
1812 for capturing the crash dump change this value to start of
1813 the reserved region. In other words, it can be set based on
1814 the "X" value as specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM"
1815 command line boot parameter passed to the panic-ed
1816 kernel. Please take a look at Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt
1817 for more details about crash dumps.

1818
1819 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1820 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1821 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1822 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1823 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1824 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the

2102 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.

2115
2116 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
2117 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
2118 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
2119 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
2120
2121 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
2122 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
2123 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
2124 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
2125 APM in your BIOS).
2126
2127 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
2128 "weird" problems:
2129
2130 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
2131 enabled.
2132 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
2133 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
2134 the "no387" option to the kernel
2135 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
2136 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
2137 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
2138 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
2139 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
2140 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
2141 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
2142 10) install a better fan for the CPU
2143 11) exchange RAM chips

2179 Enable calls to APM CPU Idle/CPU Busy inside the kernel's idle loop.
2180 On some machines, this can activate improved power savings, such as
2181 a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
2182 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,
2183 333 mS). On some machines, this will cause a hang at boot time or
2184 whenever the CPU becomes idle. (On machines with more than one CPU,
2185 this option does nothing.)

2192 virtual console blanks the screen. Note that this is only used by
2193 the virtual console screen blanker, and won't turn off the backlight
2194 when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
2195 do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
2196 option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your

2237 On PCI systems, the BIOS can be used to detect the PCI devices and

2239 have BIOS bugs and may crash if this is done. Also, some embedded
2240 PCI-based systems don't have any BIOS at all. Linux can also try to
2241 detect the PCI hardware directly without using the BIOS.

2247 If you choose "Any", the kernel will try MMCONFIG, then the

2483 help
2484 Firmwares often provide initial graphics framebuffers so the BIOS,
2485 bootloader or kernel can show basic video-output during boot for
2486 user-guidance and debugging. Historically, x86 used the VESA BIOS
2487 Extensions and EFI-framebuffers for this, which are mostly limited
2488 to x86.
2489 This option, if enabled, marks VGA/VBE/EFI framebuffers as generic
2490 framebuffers so the new generic system-framebuffer drivers can be
2491 used on x86. If the framebuffer is not compatible with the generic
2492 modes, it is adverticed as fallback platform framebuffer so legacy
2493 drivers like efifb, vesafb and uvesafb can pick it up.
2494 If this option is not selected, all system framebuffers are always
2495 marked as fallback platform framebuffers as usual.
2496
2497 Note: Legacy fbdev drivers, including vesafb, efifb, uvesafb, will
2498 not be able to pick up generic system framebuffers if this option
2499 is selected. You are highly encouraged to enable simplefb as
2500 replacement if you select this option. simplefb can correctly deal
2501 with generic system framebuffers. But you should still keep vesafb
2502 and others enabled as fallback if a system framebuffer is
