220 architectures. Similarly, multiprocessor kernels for the "PPro"
221 architecture may not work on all Pentium based boards.

644 Your processor must be a Pentium or newer to support this - check the

801 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
802 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
803 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
804 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
805 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
806 "high memory".
807
808 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
809 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
810 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
811 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
812 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
813 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
814 possible.
815
816 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
817 answer "4GB" here.
818
819 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
820 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
821 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully
822 supported by Linux, PAE mode is implemented on all recent Intel
823 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
824 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
825
826 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be
827 auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option
828 such as "mem=256M". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of
829 your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the

1036 ---help---
1037 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
1038 operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
1039 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
1040 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
1041 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
1042 coprocessor or this emulation.
1043
1044 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1045 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1046 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1047 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1048 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1049 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1050 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1051 intend to use this kernel on different machines.
1052
1053 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
1054 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.

1059config MTRR
1060 bool "MTRR (Memory Type Range Register) support"
1061 ---help---
1062 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1063 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1064 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1065 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1066 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1067 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1068 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1069 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1070 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1071
1072 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1073 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1074 as well:
1075
1076 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1077 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1078 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1079 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1080 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1081 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1082 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1083
1084 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1085 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1086 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1087
1088 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1089 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1217 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1218 address.

1220 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1221 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1222 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1223 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1224 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1225 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1226 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1227 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
1228
1229 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump, leave
1230 the value here unchanged to 0x100000 and set CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.
1231 Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux for capturing the crash dump
1232 change this value to start of the reserved region (Typically 16MB
1233 0x1000000). In other words, it can be set based on the "X" value as
1234 specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM" command line boot parameter
1235 passed to the panic-ed kernel. Typically this parameter is set as
1236 crashkernel=64M@16M. Please take a look at
1237 Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt for more details about crash dumps.
1238
1239 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1240 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1241 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1242 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1243 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1244 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the

1363 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
1364 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
1365
1366 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
1367 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
1368 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
1369 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
1370
1371 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
1372 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
1373 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
1374 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
1375 APM in your BIOS).
1376
1377 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
1378 "weird" problems:
1379
1380 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
1381 enabled.
1382 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
1383 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
1384 the "no387" option to the kernel
1385 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
1386 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1387 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1388 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1389 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1390 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1391 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
1392 10) install a better fan for the CPU
1393 11) exchange RAM chips
1394 12) exchange the motherboard.

1493 On PCI systems, the BIOS can be used to detect the PCI devices and
1494 determine their configuration. However, some old PCI motherboards
1495 have BIOS bugs and may crash if this is done. Also, some embedded
1496 PCI-based systems don't have any BIOS at all. Linux can also try to
1497 detect the PCI hardware directly without using the BIOS.
1498
1499 With this option, you can specify how Linux should detect the
1500 PCI devices. If you choose "BIOS", the BIOS will be used,
1501 if you choose "Direct", the BIOS won't be used, and if you
1502 choose "MMConfig", then PCI Express MMCONFIG will be used.
1503 If you choose "Any", the kernel will try MMCONFIG, then the
1504 direct access method and falls back to the BIOS if that doesn't
1505 work. If unsure, go with the default, which is "Any".
