263 This enables support for systems with more than one CPU. If you have
264 a system with only one CPU, like most personal computers, say N. If
265 you have a system with more than one CPU, say Y.
266
267 If you say N here, the kernel will run on single and multiprocessor
268 machines, but will use only one CPU of a multiprocessor machine. If
269 you say Y here, the kernel will run on many, but not all,
270 singleprocessor machines. On a singleprocessor machine, the kernel
271 will run faster if you say N here.
272
273 Note that if you say Y here and choose architecture "586" or
274 "Pentium" under "Processor family", the kernel will not work on 486
275 architectures. Similarly, multiprocessor kernels for the "PPro"
276 architecture may not work on all Pentium based boards.
277
278 People using multiprocessor machines who say Y here should also say
279 Y to "Enhanced Real Time Clock Support", below. The "Advanced Power
280 Management" code will be disabled if you say Y here.

842 This option enables a workaround that fixes a source of
843 spurious interrupts. This is recommended when threaded
844 interrupt handling is used on systems where the generation of
845 superfluous "boot interrupts" cannot be disabled.
846
847 Some chipsets generate a legacy INTx "boot IRQ" when the IRQ
848 entry in the chipset's IO-APIC is masked (as, e.g. the RT
849 kernel does during interrupt handling). On chipsets where this
850 boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps
851 the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot
852 IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the
853 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this
854 way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise
855 the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring
856 down (vital) interrupt lines.

1042 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
1043 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
1044 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
1045 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
1046 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
1047 "high memory".
1048
1049 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
1050 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
1051 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
1052 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
1053 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
1054 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
1055 possible.
1056
1057 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
1058 answer "4GB" here.
1059
1060 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
1061 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
1062 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully
1063 supported by Linux, PAE mode is implemented on all recent Intel
1064 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
1065 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
1066
1067 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be
1068 auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option
1069 such as "mem=256M". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of
1070 your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the

1352 prompt "Math emulation" if X86_32
1353 ---help---
1354 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
1355 operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
1356 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
1357 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
1358 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
1359 coprocessor or this emulation.
1360
1361 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1362 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1363 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1364 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1365 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1366 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1367 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1368 intend to use this kernel on different machines.
1369
1370 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
1371 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.

SR
1379 ---help---
1380 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1381 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1382 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1383 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1384 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1385 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1386 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1387 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1388 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1389
1390 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1391 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1392 as well:
1393
1394 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1395 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1396 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1397 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1398 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1399 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1400 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1401
1402 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1403 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1404 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1405
1406 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1407 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1551 This gives the physical address where the kernel is loaded.
1552
1553 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
1554 bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and

1556 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1557 address.
1558
1559 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1560 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1561 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1562 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1563 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1564 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1565 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1566 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.

1568 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump,
1569 leave the value here unchanged to 0x1000000 and set
1570 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux
1571 for capturing the crash dump change this value to start of
1572 the reserved region. In other words, it can be set based on
1573 the "X" value as specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM"
1574 command line boot parameter passed to the panic-ed
1575 kernel. Please take a look at Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt
1576 for more details about crash dumps.
506f1d07
SR
1577
1578 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1579 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1580 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1581 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1582 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1583 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
1584 line.

1764 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
1765 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
1766 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
1767 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
1768 APM in your BIOS).
1769
1770 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
1771 "weird" problems:
1772
1773 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
1774 enabled.
1775 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
1776 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
1777 the "no387" option to the kernel
1778 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
1779 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1780 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1781 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1782 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1783 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1784 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
1785 10) install a better fan for the CPU
1786 11) exchange RAM chips
1787 12) exchange the motherboard.

1797 This option will ignore USER SUSPEND requests. On machines with a

1805 specification: "When disabled, the APM BIOS does not automatically
1806 power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend
1807 State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
1808 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
1809 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
1810 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
1811 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
1812 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
1813 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
1814 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba
1815 T400CDT. This is off by default since most machines do fine without
1816 this feature.

1821 Enable calls to APM CPU Idle/CPU Busy inside the kernel's idle loop.
1822 On some machines, this can activate improved power savings, such as
1823 a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
1824 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,
1825 333 mS). On some machines, this will cause a hang at boot time or
1826 whenever the CPU becomes idle. (On machines with more than one CPU,

1835 the virtual console screen blanker, and won't turn off the backlight
1836 when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
1837 do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
1838 option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your

1848 needs to. Unfortunately, some BIOSes do not -- especially those in
1849 many of the newer IBM Thinkpads. If you experience hangs when you
1850 suspend, try setting this to Y. Otherwise, say N.
