255 This enables support for systems with more than one CPU. If you have
256 a system with only one CPU, like most personal computers, say N. If
257 you have a system with more than one CPU, say Y.
258
259 If you say N here, the kernel will run on single and multiprocessor
260 machines, but will use only one CPU of a multiprocessor machine. If
261 you say Y here, the kernel will run on many, but not all,
262 singleprocessor machines. On a singleprocessor machine, the kernel
263 will run faster if you say N here.
264
265 Note that if you say Y here and choose architecture "586" or
266 "Pentium" under "Processor family", the kernel will not work on 486
267 architectures. Similarly, multiprocessor kernels for the "PPro"
268 architecture may not work on all Pentium based boards.
269
270 People using multiprocessor machines who say Y here should also say
271 Y to "Enhanced Real Time Clock Support", below. The "Advanced Power
272 Management" code will be disabled if you say Y here.

799 This option enables a workaround that fixes a source of
800 spurious interrupts. This is recommended when threaded
801 interrupt handling is used on systems where the generation of
802 superfluous "boot interrupts" cannot be disabled.
803
804 Some chipsets generate a legacy INTx "boot IRQ" when the IRQ
805 entry in the chipset's IO-APIC is masked (as, e.g. the RT
806 kernel does during interrupt handling). On chipsets where this
807 boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps
808 the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot
809 IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the
810 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this
811 way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise
812 the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring
813 down (vital) interrupt lines.

895 This adds a driver to safely access the System Management Mode
896 of the CPU on the Dell Inspiron 8000. The System Management Mode
897 is used to read cpu temperature and cooling fan status and to
898 control the fans on the I8K portables.

900 This driver has been tested only on the Inspiron 8000 but it may
901 also work with other Dell laptops. You can force loading on other

999 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
1000 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
1001 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
1002 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
1003 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
1004 "high memory".
1005
1006 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
1007 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
1008 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
1009 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
1010 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
1011 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
1012 possible.
1013
1014 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
1015 answer "4GB" here.
1016
1017 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
1018 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
1019 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully
1020 supported by Linux, PAE mode is implemented on all recent Intel
1021 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
1022 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
1023
1024 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be
1025 auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option
1026 such as "mem=256M". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of
1027 your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the

1348 ---help---
1349 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1350 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1351 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1352 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1353 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1354 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1355 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1356 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1357 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1358
1359 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1360 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1361 as well:
1362
1363 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1364 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1365 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1366 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1367 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1368 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1369 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1370
1371 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1372 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1373 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1374
1375 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1376 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1520 This gives the physical address where the kernel is loaded.

1522 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
1523 bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and
1524 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
1525 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1526 address.

1528 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1529 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1530 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1531 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1532 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1533 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1534 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1535 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.

1537 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump,
1538 leave the value here unchanged to 0x1000000 and set
1539 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux
1540 for capturing the crash dump change this value to start of
1541 the reserved region. In other words, it can be set based on
1542 the "X" value as specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM"
1543 command line boot parameter passed to the panic-ed
1544 kernel. Please take a look at Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt
1545 for more details about crash dumps.
506f1d07
SR
1546
1547 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1548 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1549 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1550 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1551 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1552 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
1553 line.

1714 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.

1724 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
1725 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
1726 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
1727
1728 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
1729 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
1730 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
1731 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
1732
1733 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
1734 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
1735 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
1736 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
1737 APM in your BIOS).
1738
1739 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
1740 "weird" problems:
1741
1742 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
1743 enabled.
1744 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
1745 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
1746 the "no387" option to the kernel
1747 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
1748 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1749 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1750 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1751 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1752 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1753 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
1754 10) install a better fan for the CPU
1755 11) exchange RAM chips
1756 12) exchange the motherboard.

1775 power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend
1776 State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
1777 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
1778 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
1779 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
1780 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
1781 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
1782 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
1783 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba
1784 T400CDT. This is off by default since most machines do fine without
1785 this feature.

1790 Enable calls to APM CPU Idle/CPU Busy inside the kernel's idle loop.
1791 On some machines, this can activate improved power savings, such as
1792 a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
1793 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,
1794 333 mS). On some machines, this will cause a hang at boot time or
1795 whenever the CPU becomes idle. (On machines with more than one CPU,
1796 this option does nothing.)

1804 the virtual console screen blanker, and won't turn off the backlight
1805 when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
1806 do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
1807 option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your

1859 If you choose "Any", the kernel will try MMCONFIG, then the
