245 This enables support for systems with more than one CPU. If you have
246 a system with only one CPU, like most personal computers, say N. If
247 you have a system with more than one CPU, say Y.
248
249 If you say N here, the kernel will run on single and multiprocessor
250 machines, but will use only one CPU of a multiprocessor machine. If
251 you say Y here, the kernel will run on many, but not all,
252 singleprocessor machines. On a singleprocessor machine, the kernel
253 will run faster if you say N here.
254
255 Note that if you say Y here and choose architecture "586" or
256 "Pentium" under "Processor family", the kernel will not work on 486
257 architectures. Similarly, multiprocessor kernels for the "PPro"
258 architecture may not work on all Pentium based boards.
259
260 People using multiprocessor machines who say Y here should also say
261 Y to "Enhanced Real Time Clock Support", below. The "Advanced Power
262 Management" code will be disabled if you say Y here.

813 This option enables a workaround that fixes a source of
814 spurious interrupts. This is recommended when threaded
815 interrupt handling is used on systems where the generation of
816 superfluous "boot interrupts" cannot be disabled.
817
818 Some chipsets generate a legacy INTx "boot IRQ" when the IRQ
819 entry in the chipset's IO-APIC is masked (as, e.g. the RT
820 kernel does during interrupt handling). On chipsets where this
821 boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps
822 the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot
823 IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the
824 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this
825 way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise
826 the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring
827 down (vital) interrupt lines.

912 of the CPU on the Dell Inspiron 8000. The System Management Mode
913 is used to read cpu temperature and cooling fan status and to
914 control the fans on the I8K portables.

1015 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
1016 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
1017 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
1018 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
1019 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
1020 "high memory".
1021
1022 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
1023 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
1024 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
1025 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
1026 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
1027 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
1028 possible.
1029
1030 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
1031 answer "4GB" here.
1032
1033 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
1034 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
1035 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully
1036 supported by Linux, PAE mode is implemented on all recent Intel
1037 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
1038 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
1039
1040 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be
1041 auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option
1042 such as "mem=256M". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of
1043 your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the

1334 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you

1353 ---help---
1354 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1355 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1356 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1357 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1358 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1359 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1360 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1361 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1362 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1363
1364 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1365 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1366 as well:
1367
1368 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1369 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1370 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1371 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1372 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1373 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1374 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1375
1376 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1377 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1378 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1379
1380 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1381 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1526 This gives the physical address where the kernel is loaded.
1527
1528 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
1529 bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and
1530 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
1531 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1532 address.
1533
1534 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1535 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1536 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1537 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1538 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1539 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1540 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1541 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
1542

1543 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump,
1544 leave the value here unchanged to 0x1000000 and set
1545 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux
1546 for capturing the crash dump change this value to start of
1547 the reserved region. In other words, it can be set based on
1548 the "X" value as specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM"
1549 command line boot parameter passed to the panic-ed
1550 kernel. Please take a look at Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt
1551 for more details about crash dumps.
506f1d07
SR
1552
1553 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1554 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1555 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1556 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1557 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1558 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
1559 line.

1731 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
1732 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
1733
1734 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
1735 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
1736 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
1737 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
1738
1739 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
1740 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
1741 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
1742 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
1743 APM in your BIOS).
1744
1745 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
1746 "weird" problems:
1747
1748 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
1749 enabled.
1750 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
1751 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
1752 the "no387" option to the kernel
1753 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
1754 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1755 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1756 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1757 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1758 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1759 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
1760 10) install a better fan for the CPU
1761 11) exchange RAM chips
1762 12) exchange the motherboard.

1796 Enable calls to APM CPU Idle/CPU Busy inside the kernel's idle loop.
1797 On some machines, this can activate improved power savings, such as
1798 a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
1799 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,
1800 333 mS). On some machines, this will cause a hang at boot time or
1801 whenever the CPU becomes idle. (On machines with more than one CPU,
1802 this option does nothing.)

1810 the virtual console screen blanker, and won't turn off the backlight
1811 when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
1812 do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
1813 option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your

1855 On PCI systems, the BIOS can be used to detect the PCI devices and
1856 determine their configuration. However, some old PCI motherboards
1857 have BIOS bugs and may crash if this is done. Also, some embedded
1858 PCI-based systems don't have any BIOS at all. Linux can also try to
1859 detect the PCI hardware directly without using the BIOS.

1861 With this option, you can specify how Linux should detect the
1862 PCI devices. If you choose "BIOS", the BIOS will be used,
1863 if you choose "Direct", the BIOS won't be used, and if you
1864 choose "MMConfig", then PCI Express MMCONFIG will be used.
1865 If you choose "Any", the kernel will try MMCONFIG, then the
1866 direct access method and falls back to the BIOS if that doesn't
