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.

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

1041 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
1042 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
1043 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
1044 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
1045 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
1046 "high memory".
1047
1048 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
1049 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
1050 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
1051 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
1052 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
1053 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
1054 possible.
1055
1056 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
1057 answer "4GB" here.
1058
1059 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
1060 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
1061 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully
1062 supported by Linux, PAE mode is implemented on all recent Intel
1063 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
1064 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
1065
1066 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be
1067 auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option
1068 such as "mem=256M". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of
1069 your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the

1351 prompt "Math emulation" if X86_32
1352 ---help---
1353 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
1354 operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
1355 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
1356 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
1357 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
1358 coprocessor or this emulation.
1359
1360 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1361 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1362 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1363 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1364 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1365 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1366 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1367 intend to use this kernel on different machines.
1368
1369 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
1370 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.

SR
1378 ---help---
1379 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1380 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1381 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1382 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1383 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1384 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1385 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1386 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1387 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1388
1389 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1390 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1391 as well:
1392
1393 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1394 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1395 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1396 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1397 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1398 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1399 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1400
1401 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1402 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1403 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1404
1405 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1406 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1550 This gives the physical address where the kernel is loaded.
1551
1552 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
1553 bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and

1555 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1556 address.
1557
1558 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1559 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1560 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1561 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1562 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1563 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1564 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1565 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.

1567 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump,
1568 leave the value here unchanged to 0x1000000 and set
1569 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux
1570 for capturing the crash dump change this value to start of
1571 the reserved region. In other words, it can be set based on
1572 the "X" value as specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM"
1573 command line boot parameter passed to the panic-ed
1574 kernel. Please take a look at Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt
1575 for more details about crash dumps.
506f1d07
SR
1576
1577 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1578 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1579 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1580 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1581 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1582 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
1583 line.

1763 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
1764 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
1765 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
1766 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
1767 APM in your BIOS).
1768
1769 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
1770 "weird" problems:
1771
1772 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
1773 enabled.
1774 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
1775 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
1776 the "no387" option to the kernel
1777 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
1778 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1779 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1780 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1781 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1782 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1783 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
1784 10) install a better fan for the CPU
1785 11) exchange RAM chips
1786 12) exchange the motherboard.

1796 This option will ignore USER SUSPEND requests. On machines with a

1804 specification: "When disabled, the APM BIOS does not automatically
1805 power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend
1806 State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
1807 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
1808 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
1809 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
1810 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
1811 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
1812 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
1813 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba
1814 T400CDT. This is off by default since most machines do fine without
1815 this feature.

1820 Enable calls to APM CPU Idle/CPU Busy inside the kernel's idle loop.
1821 On some machines, this can activate improved power savings, such as
1822 a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
1823 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,
1824 333 mS). On some machines, this will cause a hang at boot time or
1825 whenever the CPU becomes idle. (On machines with more than one CPU,

1834 the virtual console screen blanker, and won't turn off the backlight
1835 when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
1836 do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
1837 option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your

1847 needs to. Unfortunately, some BIOSes do not -- especially those in
1848 many of the newer IBM Thinkpads. If you experience hangs when you
1849 suspend, try setting this to Y. Otherwise, say N.

1879 On PCI systems, the BIOS can be used to detect the PCI devices and

1889 If you choose "Any", the kernel will try MMCONFIG, then the
