205 ---help---
206 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
207 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
208 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
209 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
210 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
211 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
212 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
213 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
214 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
215
216 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
217 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
218 as well.
219
220 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
221 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
222 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
223
224 Just say Y here, all x86-64 machines support MTRRs.

236 machines, but will use only one CPU of a multiprocessor machine. If
237 you say Y here, the kernel will run on many, but not all,
238 singleprocessor machines. On a singleprocessor machine, the kernel
239 will run faster if you say N here.

425 kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your

457 passed to the panic-ed kernel. Typically this parameter is set as
458 crashkernel=64M@16M. Please take a look at
