222 "Pentium" under "Processor family", the kernel will not work on 486
223 architectures. Similarly, multiprocessor kernels for the "PPro"

832 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
833 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4

835 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the

839 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
840 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
841 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
842 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
843 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
844 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
845 possible.

848 answer "4GB" here.
849
850 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
851 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
852 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully

1079 ---help---
1080 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
1081 operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
1082 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
1083 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
1084 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
1085 coprocessor or this emulation.
1086
1087 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1088 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1089 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1090 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1091 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1092 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1093 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1094 intend to use this kernel on different machines.
1095
1096 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
1097 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.

1102config MTRR
1103 bool "MTRR (Memory Type Range Register) support"
1104 ---help---
1105 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1106 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1107 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1108 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1109 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1110 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1111 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1112 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1113 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1114
1115 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1116 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1117 as well:
1118
1119 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1120 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1121 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1122 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1123 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1124 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1125 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1126
1127 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1128 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1129 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1130
1131 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1132 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1289 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
1290 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1291 address.
1292
1293 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1294 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1295 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1296 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1297 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1298 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1299 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1300 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
1301
1302 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump, leave
1303 the value here unchanged to 0x100000 and set CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.
1304 Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux for capturing the crash dump
1305 change this value to start of the reserved region (Typically 16MB
1306 0x1000000). In other words, it can be set based on the "X" value as
1307 specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM" command line boot parameter
1308 passed to the panic-ed kernel. Typically this parameter is set as
1309 crashkernel=64M@16M. Please take a look at
1310 Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt for more details about crash dumps.
1311
1312 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1313 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1314 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1315 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1316 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1317 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the

1446 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
1447 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
1448 APM in your BIOS).
1449
1450 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
1451 "weird" problems:
1452
1453 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
1454 enabled.
1455 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
1456 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
1457 the "no387" option to the kernel
1458 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
1459 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1460 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1461 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1462 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1463 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1464 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
1465 10) install a better fan for the CPU
1466 11) exchange RAM chips
1467 12) exchange the motherboard.

1476 help
1477 This option will ignore USER SUSPEND requests. On machines with a

1482 bool "Enable PM at boot time"
1483 ---help---
1484 Enable APM features at boot time. From page 36 of the APM BIOS
1485 specification: "When disabled, the APM BIOS does not automatically
1486 power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend
1487 State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
1488 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
1489 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
1490 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
1491 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
1492 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
1493 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
1494 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba
1495 T400CDT. This is off by default since most machines do fine without
1496 this feature.

1499 bool "Make CPU Idle calls when idle"
1500 help
1501 Enable calls to APM CPU Idle/CPU Busy inside the kernel's idle loop.
1502 On some machines, this can activate improved power savings, such as
1503 a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
1504 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,
1505 333 mS). On some machines, this will cause a hang at boot time or
1506 whenever the CPU becomes idle. (On machines with more than one CPU,
1507 this option does nothing.)

1513 turn off the LCD backlight when the screen blanker of the Linux
1514 virtual console blanks the screen. Note that this is only used by
1515 the virtual console screen blanker, and won't turn off the backlight
1516 when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
1517 do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
1518 option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your
1519 backlight at all, or it might print a lot of errors to the console,
1520 especially if you are using gpm.

1524 help
1525 Normally we disable external interrupts while we are making calls to
1526 the APM BIOS as a measure to lessen the effects of a badly behaving
1527 BIOS implementation. The BIOS should reenable interrupts if it
1528 needs to. Unfortunately, some BIOSes do not -- especially those in
1529 many of the newer IBM Thinkpads. If you experience hangs when you
1530 suspend, try setting this to Y. Otherwise, say N.

1565 On PCI systems, the BIOS can be used to detect the PCI devices and
1566 determine their configuration. However, some old PCI motherboards
1567 have BIOS bugs and may crash if this is done. Also, some embedded
1568 PCI-based systems don't have any BIOS at all. Linux can also try to
1569 detect the PCI hardware directly without using the BIOS.

1571 With this option, you can specify how Linux should detect the

1573 if you choose "Direct", the BIOS won't be used, and if you
1574 choose "MMConfig", then PCI Express MMCONFIG will be used.
1575 If you choose "Any", the kernel will try MMCONFIG, then the
