919 This option enables a workaround that fixes a source of
920 spurious interrupts. This is recommended when threaded
921 interrupt handling is used on systems where the generation of
922 superfluous "boot interrupts" cannot be disabled.
923
924 Some chipsets generate a legacy INTx "boot IRQ" when the IRQ
925 entry in the chipset's IO-APIC is masked (as, e.g. the RT
926 kernel does during interrupt handling). On chipsets where this
927 boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps
928 the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot
929 IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the
930 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this
931 way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise
932 the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring
933 down (vital) interrupt lines.
934
935 Only affects "broken" chipsets. Interrupt sharing may be
936 increased on these systems.

1173 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
1174 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
1175 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
1176 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
1177 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
1178 "high memory".
1179
1180 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
1181 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
1182 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
1183 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
1184 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
1185 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
1186 possible.
1187
1188 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
1189 answer "4GB" here.
1190
1191 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
1192 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
1193 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully

1195 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
1196 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
1197
1198 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be

1488 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
1489 operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
1490 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
1491 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
1492 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
1493 coprocessor or this emulation.
1494
1495 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1496 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1497 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1498 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1499 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1500 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1501 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1502 intend to use this kernel on different machines.

SR
1513 ---help---
1514 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1515 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1516 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1517 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1518 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1519 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1520 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1521 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1522 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1523
1524 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1525 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1526 as well:
1527
1528 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1529 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1530 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1531 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1532 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1533 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1534 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1535
1536 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1537 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1538 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1539
1540 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1541 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1755 This should be normally only set in special crash dump kernels
1756 which are loaded in the main kernel with kexec-tools into
1757 a specially reserved region and then later executed after
1758 a crash by kdump/kexec. The crash dump kernel must be compiled
1759 to a memory address not used by the main kernel or BIOS using

1775 This gives the physical address where the kernel is loaded.
1776
1777 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
1778 bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and
1779 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
1780 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1781 address.
1782
1783 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1784 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1785 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1786 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1787 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1788 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1789 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1790 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
1791

1792 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump,
1793 leave the value here unchanged to 0x1000000 and set
1794 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux
1795 for capturing the crash dump change this value to start of
1796 the reserved region. In other words, it can be set based on
1797 the "X" value as specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM"
1798 command line boot parameter passed to the panic-ed
1799 kernel. Please take a look at Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt
1800 for more details about crash dumps.

SR
1801
1802 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1803 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1804 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1805 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1806 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1807 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
1808 line.

2098
2099 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
2100 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
2101 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
2102 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.

2104 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
2105 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
2106 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
2107 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
2108 APM in your BIOS).
2109
2110 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
2111 "weird" problems:
2112
2113 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
2114 enabled.
2115 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
2116 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
2117 the "no387" option to the kernel
2118 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
2119 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
2120 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
2121 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
2122 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
2123 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
2124 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
2125 10) install a better fan for the CPU
2126 11) exchange RAM chips

2173 Enable console blanking using the APM. Some laptops can use this to
2174 turn off the LCD backlight when the screen blanker of the Linux
2175 virtual console blanks the screen. Note that this is only used by
2176 the virtual console screen blanker, and won't turn off the backlight
2177 when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
2178 do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
2179 option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your
2180 backlight at all, or it might print a lot of errors to the console,

2230 If you choose "Any", the kernel will try MMCONFIG, then the

2467 Firmwares often provide initial graphics framebuffers so the BIOS,
2468 bootloader or kernel can show basic video-output during boot for
2469 user-guidance and debugging. Historically, x86 used the VESA BIOS
2470 Extensions and EFI-framebuffers for this, which are mostly limited
2471 to x86.
2472 This option, if enabled, marks VGA/VBE/EFI framebuffers as generic
2473 framebuffers so the new generic system-framebuffer drivers can be
2474 used on x86. If the framebuffer is not compatible with the generic
2475 modes, it is adverticed as fallback platform framebuffer so legacy
2476 drivers like efifb, vesafb and uvesafb can pick it up.
2477 If this option is not selected, all system framebuffers are always
2478 marked as fallback platform framebuffers as usual.
2479
2480 Note: Legacy fbdev drivers, including vesafb, efifb, uvesafb, will
2481 not be able to pick up generic system framebuffers if this option
2482 is selected. You are highly encouraged to enable simplefb as
2483 replacement if you select this option. simplefb can correctly deal
2484 with generic system framebuffers. But you should still keep vesafb
2485 and others enabled as fallback if a system framebuffer is
2486 incompatible with simplefb.
