6 ELF (Executable and Linkable Format) is a format for libraries and
7 executables used across different architectures and operating
8 systems. Saying Y here will enable your kernel to run ELF binaries
9 and enlarge it by about 13 KB. ELF support under Linux has now all
10 but replaced the traditional Linux a.out formats (QMAGIC and ZMAGIC)
11 because it is portable (this does *not* mean that you will be able
12 to run executables from different architectures or operating systems
13 however) and makes building run-time libraries very easy. Many new
14 executables are distributed solely in ELF format. You definitely
15 want to say Y here.
16
17 Information about ELF is contained in the ELF HOWTO available from
18 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
19
20 If you find that after upgrading from Linux kernel 1.2 and saying Y
21 here, you still can't run any ELF binaries (they just crash), then
22 you'll have to install the newest ELF runtime libraries, including
23 ld.so (check the file <file:Documentation/Changes> for location and
24 latest version).

37 help
38 ELF FDPIC binaries are based on ELF, but allow the individual load
39 segments of a binary to be located in memory independently of each
40 other. This makes this format ideal for use in environments where no
41 MMU is available as it still permits text segments to be shared,
42 even if data segments are not.
43
44 It is also possible to run FDPIC ELF binaries on MMU linux also.

50 help
51 ELF core dump files describe each memory mapping of the crashed
52 process, and can contain or omit the memory contents of each one.
53 The contents of an unmodified text mapping are omitted by default.
54
55 For an unmodified text mapping of an ELF object, including just
56 the first page of the file in a core dump makes it possible to
57 identify the build ID bits in the file, without paying the i/o
58 cost and disk space to dump all the text. However, versions of
59 GDB before 6.7 are confused by ELF core dump files in this format.
60
61 The core dump behavior can be controlled per process using
62 the /proc/PID/coredump_filter pseudo-file; this setting is
63 inherited. See Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt for details.
64
65 This config option changes the default setting of coredump_filter
89502155 66 seen at boot time. If unsure, say Y.

70 default y
71 help
72 Say Y here if you want to execute interpreted scripts starting with
73 #! followed by the path to an interpreter.
74
75 You can build this support as a module; however, until that module
76 gets loaded, you cannot run scripts. Thus, if you want to load this
77 module from an initramfs, the portion of the initramfs before loading
78 this module must consist of compiled binaries only.
79
80 Most systems will not boot if you say M or N here. If unsure, say Y.

107 ---help---
108 A.out (Assembler.OUTput) is a set of formats for libraries and
109 executables used in the earliest versions of UNIX. Linux used
110 the a.out formats QMAGIC and ZMAGIC until they were replaced
111 with the ELF format.
112
113 The conversion to ELF started in 1995. This option is primarily
114 provided for historical interest and for the benefit of those
115 who need to run binaries from that era.
116
117 Most people should answer N here. If you think you may have
118 occasional use for this format, enable module support above
119 and answer M here to compile this support as a module called
120 binfmt_aout.
121
122 If any crucial components of your system (such as /sbin/init
123 or /lib/ld.so) are still in a.out format, you will have to
124 say Y here.

130 Say Y if you are using OSF/1 binaries (like Netscape and Acrobat)
131 with v4 shared libraries freely available from Compaq. If you're
132 going to use shared libraries from Tru64 version 5.0 or later, say N.

134config BINFMT_EM86

136 depends on ALPHA
137 ---help---
138 Say Y here if you want to be able to execute Linux/Intel ELF
139 binaries just like native Alpha binaries on your Alpha machine. For
140 this to work, you need to have the emulator /usr/bin/em86 in place.
141
142 You can get the same functionality by saying N here and saying Y to
143 "Kernel support for MISC binaries".
144
145 You may answer M to compile the emulation support as a module and
146 later load the module when you want to use a Linux/Intel binary. The
147 module will be called binfmt_em86. If unsure, say Y.

149config BINFMT_SOM

154 Y here to be able to load and execute SOM binaries directly.
155
156config BINFMT_MISC
157 tristate "Kernel support for MISC binaries"
158 ---help---
159 If you say Y here, it will be possible to plug wrapper-driven binary
160 formats into the kernel. You will like this especially when you use
161 programs that need an interpreter to run like Java, Python, .NET or
162 Emacs-Lisp. It's also useful if you often run DOS executables under
163 the Linux DOS emulator DOSEMU (read the DOSEMU-HOWTO, available from
164 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>). Once you have
165 registered such a binary class with the kernel, you can start one of
166 those programs simply by typing in its name at a shell prompt; Linux
167 will automatically feed it to the correct interpreter.
168
169 You can do other nice things, too. Read the file
170 <file:Documentation/binfmt_misc.txt> to learn how to use this
171 feature, <file:Documentation/java.txt> for information about how
172 to include Java support. and <file:Documentation/mono.txt> for
173 information about how to include Mono-based .NET support.
174
175 To use binfmt_misc, you will need to mount it:
176 mount binfmt_misc -t binfmt_misc /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc
177
178 You may say M here for module support and later load the module when
179 you have use for it; the module is called binfmt_misc. If you
180 don't know what to answer at this point, say Y.

187 certainly want to say Y here. Not necessary on systems that never
188 need debugging or only ever run flawless code.
