277 | Note that if you say Y here and choose architecture "586" or | |

856 | This option enables a workaround that fixes a source of |

858 | interrupt handling is used on systems where the generation of | |
859 | superfluous "boot interrupts" cannot be disabled. | |
860 | ||
861 | Some chipsets generate a legacy INTx "boot IRQ" when the IRQ | |
862 | entry in the chipset's IO-APIC is masked (as, e.g. the RT | |
863 | kernel does during interrupt handling). On chipsets where this | |
864 | boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps | |
865 | the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot | |
866 | IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the | |
867 | kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this | |
868 | way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise | |
869 | the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring | |
870 | down (vital) interrupt lines. | |

1057 | However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4 | |
1058 | Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of | |
1059 | physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the | |
1060 | kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called | |
1061 | "high memory". | |

1064 | more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default | |
1065 | choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB" | |
1066 | split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory | |
1067 | space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used | |
1068 | by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as | |
1069 | possible. | |
1070 | ||
1071 | If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then | |
1072 | answer "4GB" here. | |

1074 | If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This | |

1380 | a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can | |

1384 | If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you | |
1385 | say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will | |
1386 | be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel | |
1387 | command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor | |
1388 | is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot | |
1389 | loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at | |

1402 | ---help--- |
1403 | On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later) | |
1404 | the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control | |
1405 | processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have | |
1406 | a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining | |
1407 | allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer | |
1408 | before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance | |
1409 | of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a | |
1410 | /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's | |
1411 | MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this. | |
1412 | ||
1413 | This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar | |
1414 | control registers on other processors can be easily supported | |
1415 | as well: | |
1416 | ||
1417 | The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range | |
1418 | Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For | |
1419 | these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs. | |
1420 | The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two | |
1421 | MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing | |
1422 | write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code | |
1423 | and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them. | |
1424 | ||
1425 | Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only | |
1426 | set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This | |
1427 | can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here. | |
1428 | ||
1429 | You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll | |
1430 | just add about 9 KB to your kernel. | |

1553 | This should be normally only set in special crash dump kernels | |
1554 | which are loaded in the main kernel with kexec-tools into | |
1555 | a specially reserved region and then later executed after | |
1556 | a crash by kdump/kexec. The crash dump kernel must be compiled | |
1557 | to a memory address not used by the main kernel or BIOS using | |
1558 | PHYSICAL_START, or it must be built as a relocatable image | |

1574 | This gives the physical address where the kernel is loaded. |
1575 | ||
1576 | If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then | |
1577 | bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and | |
1578 | run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where | |
1579 | it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical | |
1580 | address. | |
1581 | ||
1582 | In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option | |
1583 | as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image | |
1584 | (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different | |
1585 | address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want | |
1586 | to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a | |
1587 | vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs | |
1588 | to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area | |
1589 | (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy. | |
1590 | ||

1591 | So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump, |
1592 | leave the value here unchanged to 0x1000000 and set | |
1593 | CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux | |
1594 | for capturing the crash dump change this value to start of | |
1595 | the reserved region. In other words, it can be set based on | |
1596 | the "X" value as specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM" | |
1597 | command line boot parameter passed to the panic-ed | |
1598 | kernel. Please take a look at Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt | |
1599 | for more details about crash dumps. | |
506f1d07 SR |
1600 | |
1601 | Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as | |
1602 | one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used | |
1603 | as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have | |
1604 | gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it | |
1605 | is present because there are users out there who continue to use | |
1606 | vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the | |

1760 | APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different | |
1761 | techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with | |
1762 | APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be | |
1763 | reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide | |
1764 | battery status information, and user-space programs will receive | |
1765 | notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change). | |
1766 | ||
1767 | If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM | |
1768 | BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time. | |
1769 | ||
1770 | Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for | |
1771 | machines with more than one CPU. | |

1776 | <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. | |
1777 | ||
1778 | This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8) | |
1779 | manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off | |
1780 | VESA-compliant "green" monitors. | |
1781 | ||
1782 | This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER | |
1783 | 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green" | |
1784 | desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver | |
1785 | may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase. | |
1786 | ||
1787 | Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't | |
1788 | much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get | |
1789 | random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to | |
1790 | anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling | |
1791 | APM in your BIOS). | |
1792 | ||
1793 | Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random, | |
1794 | "weird" problems: | |
1795 | ||
1796 | 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is | |
1797 | enabled. | |
1798 | 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel | |
1799 | 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass | |
1800 | the "no387" option to the kernel | |
1801 | 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel | |
1802 | 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling | |
1803 | all but the first 4 MB of RAM) | |
1804 | 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked. | |
1805 | 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/> | |
1806 | 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings | |
1807 | 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM | |
1808 | 10) install a better fan for the CPU | |
1809 | 11) exchange RAM chips | |
1810 | 12) exchange the motherboard. | |
