253 will run faster if you say N here.

255 Note that if you say Y here and choose architecture "586" or
256 "Pentium" under "Processor family", the kernel will not work on 486
257 architectures. Similarly, multiprocessor kernels for the "PPro"
258 architecture may not work on all Pentium based boards.

805 Some chipsets generate a legacy INTx "boot IRQ" when the IRQ
806 entry in the chipset's IO-APIC is masked (as, e.g. the RT
807 kernel does during interrupt handling). On chipsets where this
808 boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps
809 the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot
810 IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the
811 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this
812 way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise
813 the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring

1008 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
1009 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
1010 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
1011 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
1012 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
1013 "high memory".
1014
1015 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
1016 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
1017 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
1018 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
1019 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
1020 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
1021 possible.
1022
1023 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
1024 answer "4GB" here.
1025
1026 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
1027 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.

1032

1320 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
1321 operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
1322 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
1323 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
1324 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
1325 coprocessor or this emulation.
1326
1327 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1328 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1329 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1330 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1331 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1332 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1333 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1334 intend to use this kernel on different machines.
1335
1336 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
1337 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.

1346 ---help---
1347 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1348 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1349 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1350 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1351 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1352 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1353 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1354 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1355 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1356
1357 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1358 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1359 as well:
1360
1361 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1362 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1363 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1364 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1365 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1366 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1367 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1368
1369 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1370 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1371 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1372
1373 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1374 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1487 It is an ongoing process to be certain the hardware in a machine
1488 is properly shutdown, so do not be surprised if this code does not

1519 This gives the physical address where the kernel is loaded.
1520
1521 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
1522 bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and
1523 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
1524 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1525 address.
1526
1527 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1528 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1529 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1530 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1531 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1532 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1533 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1534 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
1535
1536 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump,
1537 leave the value here unchanged to 0x1000000 and set
1538 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux
1539 for capturing the crash dump change this value to start of
1540 the reserved region. In other words, it can be set based on
1541 the "X" value as specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM"
1542 command line boot parameter passed to the panic-ed
1543 kernel. Please take a look at Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt
1544 for more details about crash dumps.
1545
1546 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1547 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1548 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1549 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1550 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1551 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
1552 line.

1591
1592 If bootloader loads the kernel at a non-aligned address and

1704 ---help---
1705 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
1706 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
1707 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
1708 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
1709 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
1710 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
1711
1712 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
1713 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
1714
1715 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
1716 machines with more than one CPU.
1717
1718 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
1719 and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/pm.txt> and the
1720 Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
1721 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
1722
1723 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
1724 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
1725 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
1726
1727 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
1728 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
1729 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
1730 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
1731
1732 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
1733 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
1734 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
1735 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
1736 APM in your BIOS).
1737
1738 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
1739 "weird" problems:
1740
1741 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
1742 enabled.
1743 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
1744 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
1745 the "no387" option to the kernel
1746 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
1747 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1748 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1749 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1750 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1751 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1752 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
1753 10) install a better fan for the CPU
1754 11) exchange RAM chips
1755 12) exchange the motherboard.
1756

1758 module will be called apm.

1764 ---help---
1765 This option will ignore USER SUSPEND requests. On machines with a

1772 Enable APM features at boot time. From page 36 of the APM BIOS
1773 specification: "When disabled, the APM BIOS does not automatically
1774 power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend
1775 State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
1776 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
1777 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
1778 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
1779 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
1780 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
1781 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
1782 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba
1783 T400CDT. This is off by default since most machines do fine without
1784 this feature.

1788 ---help---
1789 Enable calls to APM CPU Idle/CPU Busy inside the kernel's idle loop.
1790 On some machines, this can activate improved power savings, such as
1791 a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
1792 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,
1793 333 mS). On some machines, this will cause a hang at boot time or
1794 whenever the CPU becomes idle. (On machines with more than one CPU,
1795 this option does nothing.)

1802 virtual console blanks the screen. Note that this is only used by
1803 the virtual console screen blanker, and won't turn off the backlight
1804 when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
1805 do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
1806 option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your
1807 backlight at all, or it might print a lot of errors to the console,
1808 especially if you are using gpm.

1812 ---help---
1813 Normally we disable external interrupts while we are making calls to
1814 the APM BIOS as a measure to lessen the effects of a badly behaving
1815 BIOS implementation. The BIOS should reenable interrupts if it
1816 needs to. Unfortunately, some BIOSes do not -- especially those in
1817 many of the newer IBM Thinkpads. If you experience hangs when you
1818 suspend, try setting this to Y. Otherwise, say N.
