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

850 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
851 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
852 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
853 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
854 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
855 "high memory".
856
857 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
858 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
859 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
860 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
861 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
862 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
863 possible.
864
865 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
866 answer "4GB" here.
867
868 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
869 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
870 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully
871 supported by Linux, PAE mode is implemented on all recent Intel
872 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
873 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
874
875 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be
876 auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option
877 such as "mem=256M". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of

1151 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1152 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1153 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1154 intend to use this kernel on different machines.
1155
1156 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
1157 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.

1162config MTRR
1163 bool "MTRR (Memory Type Range Register) support"
1164 ---help---
1165 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1166 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1167 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1168 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1169 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1170 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1171 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1172 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1173 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1174
1175 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1176 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1177 as well:
1178
1179 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1180 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1181 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1182 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1183 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1184 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1185 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1186
1187 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1188 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1189 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1190
1191 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1192 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1357 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1358 address.
1359
1360 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1361 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1362 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1363 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1364 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1365 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1366 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1367 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
1368
1369 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump, leave
1370 the value here unchanged to 0x100000 and set CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.
1371 Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux for capturing the crash dump
1372 change this value to start of the reserved region (Typically 16MB
1373 0x1000000). In other words, it can be set based on the "X" value as
1374 specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM" command line boot parameter
1375 passed to the panic-ed kernel. Typically this parameter is set as
1376 crashkernel=64M@16M. Please take a look at
1377 Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt for more details about crash dumps.
1378
1379 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1380 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1381 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1382 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1383 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1384 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
1385 line.

1530 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
1531 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
1532 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
1533 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
1534 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
1535
1536 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
1537 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
1538
1539 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
1540 machines with more than one CPU.
1541
1542 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
1543 and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/pm.txt> and the
1544 Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
1545 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.

1547 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
1548 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
1549 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
1550
1551 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
1552 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
1553 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
1554 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
1555
1556 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
1557 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
1558 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
1559 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
1560 APM in your BIOS).
1561
1562 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
1563 "weird" problems:
1564
1565 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
1566 enabled.
1567 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
1568 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
1569 the "no387" option to the kernel
1570 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
1571 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1572 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1573 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1574 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1575 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1576 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM

1578 11) exchange RAM chips

1667 Find out whether you have a PCI motherboard. PCI is the name of a
1668 bus system, i.e. the way the CPU talks to the other stuff inside
1669 your box. Other bus systems are ISA, EISA, MicroChannel (MCA) or
1670 VESA. If you have PCI, say Y, otherwise N.

1676 ---help---
1677 On PCI systems, the BIOS can be used to detect the PCI devices and
1678 determine their configuration. However, some old PCI motherboards
1679 have BIOS bugs and may crash if this is done. Also, some embedded
1680 PCI-based systems don't have any BIOS at all. Linux can also try to
1681 detect the PCI hardware directly without using the BIOS.
1682
1683 With this option, you can specify how Linux should detect the
1684 PCI devices. If you choose "BIOS", the BIOS will be used,
1685 if you choose "Direct", the BIOS won't be used, and if you
1686 choose "MMConfig", then PCI Express MMCONFIG will be used.
1687 If you choose "Any", the kernel will try MMCONFIG, then the
1688 direct access method and falls back to the BIOS if that doesn't
1689 work. If unsure, go with the default, which is "Any".

1801 the older ISA bus. The EISA bus saw limited use between 1988 and
1802 1995 when it was made obsolete by the PCI bus.
