939 This option enables a workaround that fixes a source of
940 spurious interrupts. This is recommended when threaded
941 interrupt handling is used on systems where the generation of
942 superfluous "boot interrupts" cannot be disabled.
943
944 Some chipsets generate a legacy INTx "boot IRQ" when the IRQ
945 entry in the chipset's IO-APIC is masked (as, e.g. the RT
946 kernel does during interrupt handling). On chipsets where this
947 boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps
948 the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot
949 IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the
950 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this
951 way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise
952 the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring
953 down (vital) interrupt lines.
954
955 Only affects "broken" chipsets. Interrupt sharing may be
956 increased on these systems.

1211 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
1212 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
1213 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
1214 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
1215 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
1216 "high memory".
1217
1218 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
1219 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
1220 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
1221 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
1222 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
1223 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
1224 possible.
1225
1226 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
1227 answer "4GB" here.
1228
1229 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
1230 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
1231 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully

1233 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
1234 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
1235
1236 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be
1237 auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option
1238 such as "mem=256M". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of
1239 your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the

1485 configuration, it is disabled at runtime. Enable it by
1486 setting "memory_corruption_check=1" on the kernel command

1488 seconds; see the memory_corruption_check_size and

1492 When enabled with the default parameters, this option has
1493 almost no overhead, as it reserves a relatively small amount
1494 of memory and scans it infrequently. It both detects corruption
1495 and prevents it from affecting the running system.
1496
1497 It is, however, intended as a diagnostic tool; if repeatable
1498 BIOS-originated corruption always affects the same memory,

1542 prompt "Math emulation" if X86_32
1543 ---help---
1544 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
1545 operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
1546 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
1547 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
1548 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
1549 coprocessor or this emulation.
1550
1551 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1552 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1553 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1554 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1555 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1556 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1557 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1558 intend to use this kernel on different machines.
1559
1560 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
1561 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.

506f1d07
SR
1569 ---help---
1570 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1571 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1572 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1573 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1574 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1575 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1576 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1577 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1578 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1579
1580 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1581 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1582 as well:
1583
1584 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1585 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1586 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1587 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1588 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1589 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1590 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1591
1592 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1593 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1594 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1595
1596 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1597 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1760 current kernel, and to start another kernel. It is like a reboot
1761 but it is independent of the system firmware. And like a reboot
1762 you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.
1763
1764 The name comes from the similarity to the exec system call.
1765
1766 It is an ongoing process to be certain the hardware in a machine
1767 is properly shutdown, so do not be surprised if this code does not

1809 This should be normally only set in special crash dump kernels

1812 a crash by kdump/kexec. The crash dump kernel must be compiled

1829 This gives the physical address where the kernel is loaded.
1830
1831 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
1832 bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and
1833 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
1834 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1835 address.
1836
1837 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1838 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1839 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1840 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1841 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1842 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1843 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1844 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
1845

1846 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump,
1847 leave the value here unchanged to 0x1000000 and set
1848 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux
1849 for capturing the crash dump change this value to start of
1850 the reserved region. In other words, it can be set based on
1851 the "X" value as specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM"
1852 command line boot parameter passed to the panic-ed
1853 kernel. Please take a look at Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt
1854 for more details about crash dumps.

SR
1855
1856 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1857 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1858 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1859 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1860 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1861 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
1862 line.

2150 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide

2153
2154 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
2155 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.

2216 power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend
2217 State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
2218 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
2219 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
2220 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
2221 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
2222 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
2223 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
2224 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba

2226 this feature.

2537 Firmwares often provide initial graphics framebuffers so the BIOS,

2540 Extensions and EFI-framebuffers for this, which are mostly limited

2542 This option, if enabled, marks VGA/VBE/EFI framebuffers as generic
2543 framebuffers so the new generic system-framebuffer drivers can be
2544 used on x86. If the framebuffer is not compatible with the generic
2545 modes, it is adverticed as fallback platform framebuffer so legacy
2546 drivers like efifb, vesafb and uvesafb can pick it up.
2547 If this option is not selected, all system framebuffers are always
2548 marked as fallback platform framebuffers as usual.
