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.

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

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

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

1000 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
1001 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
1002 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
1003 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
1004 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
1005 "high memory".
1006
1007 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
1008 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
1009 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
1010 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
1011 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
1012 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
1013 possible.
1014
1015 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
1016 answer "4GB" here.
1017
1018 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
1019 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
1020 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully
1021 supported by Linux, PAE mode is implemented on all recent Intel
1022 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
1023 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
1024
1025 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be
1026 auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option
1027 such as "mem=256M". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of
1028 your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the
1029 kernel at boot time.)

1331 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1332 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1333 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1334 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1335 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1336 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1337 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1338 intend to use this kernel on different machines.

1340 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
1341 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.

1349 ---help---
1350 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1351 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1352 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1353 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1354 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1355 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1356 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1357 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1358 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1359
1360 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1361 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1362 as well:
1363
1364 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1365 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1366 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1367 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1368 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1369 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1370 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1371
1372 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1373 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1374 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1375
1376 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1377 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1521 This gives the physical address where the kernel is loaded.

1523 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
1524 bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and

1526 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1527 address.

1529 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1530 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1531 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1532 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1533 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1534 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1535 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1536 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.

1538 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump,

1541 for capturing the crash dump change this value to start of
1542 the reserved region. In other words, it can be set based on
1543 the "X" value as specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM"
1544 command line boot parameter passed to the panic-ed
1545 kernel. Please take a look at Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt

1547
1548 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1549 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1550 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1551 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1552 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1553 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the

1728
1729 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
1730 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
1731 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
1732 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
1733
1734 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
1735 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
1736 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
1737 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
1738 APM in your BIOS).
1739
1740 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
1741 "weird" problems:
1742
1743 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
1744 enabled.
1745 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
1746 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
1747 the "no387" option to the kernel
1748 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
1749 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1750 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1751 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1752 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1753 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1754 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
1755 10) install a better fan for the CPU
1756 11) exchange RAM chips
1757 12) exchange the motherboard.

1771config APM_DO_ENABLE
1772 bool "Enable PM at boot time"
1773 ---help---
1774 Enable APM features at boot time. From page 36 of the APM BIOS
1775 specification: "When disabled, the APM BIOS does not automatically
1776 power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend
1777 State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
1778 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
1779 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
1780 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
1781 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
1782 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
1783 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
1784 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba
1785 T400CDT. This is off by default since most machines do fine without
1786 this feature.

1791 Enable calls to APM CPU Idle/CPU Busy inside the kernel's idle loop.
1792 On some machines, this can activate improved power savings, such as
1793 a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
1794 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,
1795 333 mS). On some machines, this will cause a hang at boot time or
1796 whenever the CPU becomes idle. (On machines with more than one CPU,
1797 this option does nothing.)

1805 the virtual console screen blanker, and won't turn off the backlight
1806 when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
1807 do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
1808 option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your
