233 This enables support for systems with more than one CPU. If you have
234 a system with only one CPU, like most personal computers, say N. If
235 you have a system with more than one CPU, say Y.
236
237 If you say N here, the kernel will run on single and multiprocessor
238 machines, but will use only one CPU of a multiprocessor machine. If
239 you say Y here, the kernel will run on many, but not all,
240 singleprocessor machines. On a singleprocessor machine, the kernel
241 will run faster if you say N here.
242
243 Note that if you say Y here and choose architecture "586" or
244 "Pentium" under "Processor family", the kernel will not work on 486
245 architectures. Similarly, multiprocessor kernels for the "PPro"
246 architecture may not work on all Pentium based boards.
247
248 People using multiprocessor machines who say Y here should also say
249 Y to "Enhanced Real Time Clock Support", below. The "Advanced Power
250 Management" code will be disabled if you say Y here.

746 This option enables a workaround that fixes a source of
747 spurious interrupts. This is recommended when threaded
748 interrupt handling is used on systems where the generation of
749 superfluous "boot interrupts" cannot be disabled.
750
751 Some chipsets generate a legacy INTx "boot IRQ" when the IRQ
752 entry in the chipset's IO-APIC is masked (as, e.g. the RT
753 kernel does during interrupt handling). On chipsets where this
754 boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps
755 the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot
756 IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the
757 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this
758 way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise
759 the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring
760 down (vital) interrupt lines.

772 Your processor must be a Pentium or newer to support this - check the
773 flags in /proc/cpuinfo for mce. Note that some older Pentium systems
774 have a design flaw which leads to false MCE events - hence MCE is
775 disabled on all P5 processors, unless explicitly enabled with "mce"
776 as a boot argument. Similarly, if MCE is built in and creates a

961 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
962 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
963 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
964 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
965 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
966 "high memory".
967
968 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
969 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
970 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
971 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
972 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
973 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
974 possible.
975
976 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
977 answer "4GB" here.
978
979 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
980 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
981 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully
982 supported by Linux, PAE mode is implemented on all recent Intel
983 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
984 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
985
986 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be
987 auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option
988 such as "mem=256M". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of
989 your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the
990 kernel at boot time.)

1022 than low memory, as it needs to be mapped into the kernel first.

1264 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
1265 operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
1266 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
1267 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
1268 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
1269 coprocessor or this emulation.
1270
1271 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1272 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1273 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1274 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1275 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1276 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1277 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1278 intend to use this kernel on different machines.

1288 ---help---
1289 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1290 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1291 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1292 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1293 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1294 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1295 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1296 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1297 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1298
1299 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1300 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1301 as well:
1302
1303 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1304 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1305 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1306 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1307 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1308 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1309 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1310
1311 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1312 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1313 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1314
1315 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1316 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1465 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1466 address.

1468 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1469 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1470 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1471 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1472 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1473 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1474 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1475 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.

1477 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump,
1478 leave the value here unchanged to 0x1000000 and set
1479 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux
1480 for capturing the crash dump change this value to start of
1481 the reserved region. In other words, it can be set based on
1482 the "X" value as specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM"
1483 command line boot parameter passed to the panic-ed
1484 kernel. Please take a look at Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt

506f1d07

1486
1487 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1488 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1489 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1490 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1491 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1492 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the

1646 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
1647 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide

1650

1652 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.

1654 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
1655 machines with more than one CPU.

1662 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
1663 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
1664 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
1665
1666 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
1667 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
1668 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
1669 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
1670
1671 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
1672 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
1673 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
1674 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
1675 APM in your BIOS).
1676
1677 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
1678 "weird" problems:
1679
1680 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
1681 enabled.
1682 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
1683 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
1684 the "no387" option to the kernel
1685 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
1686 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1687 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1688 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1689 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1690 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1691 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
1692 10) install a better fan for the CPU
1693 11) exchange RAM chips
1694 12) exchange the motherboard.

1906 Find out whether you have ISA slots on your motherboard. ISA is the
1907 name of a bus system, i.e. the way the CPU talks to the other stuff
1908 inside your box. Other bus systems are PCI, EISA, MicroChannel
1909 (MCA) or VESA. ISA is an older system, now being displaced by PCI;
1910 newer boards don't support it. If you have ISA, say Y, otherwise N.

1919 The EISA bus provided some of the features of the IBM MicroChannel
1920 bus while maintaining backward compatibility with cards made for
1921 the older ISA bus. The EISA bus saw limited use between 1988 and
1922 1995 when it was made obsolete by the PCI bus.
