271 Machine Check Exception support allows the processor to notify the
272 kernel if it detects a problem (e.g. overheating, component failure).
273 The action the kernel takes depends on the severity of the problem,
274 ranging from a warning message on the console, to halting the machine.
275 Your processor must be a Pentium or newer to support this - check the
276 flags in /proc/cpuinfo for mce. Note that some older Pentium systems
277 have a design flaw which leads to false MCE events - hence MCE is
278 disabled on all P5 processors, unless explicitly enabled with "mce"
279 as a boot argument. Similarly, if MCE is built in and creates a
280 problem on some new non-standard machine, you can boot with "nomce"
281 to disable it. MCE support simply ignores non-MCE processors like

400 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
401 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
402 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
403 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
404 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
405 "high memory".
406
407 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
408 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
409 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
410 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
411 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
412 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
413 possible.
414
415 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
416 answer "4GB" here.
417
418 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
419 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
420 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully
421 supported by Linux, PAE mode is implemented on all recent Intel
422 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
423 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
424
425 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be
426 auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option
427 such as "mem=256M". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of
428 your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the

531 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point

533 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
534 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
535 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
536 coprocessor or this emulation.
537
538 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
539 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
540 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
541 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
542 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
543 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
544 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
545 intend to use this kernel on different machines.

547 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
548 emulation can be found in <file:arch/i386/math-emu/README>.

555 ---help---
556 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
557 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
558 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
559 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
560 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
561 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
562 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
563 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
564 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
565
566 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
567 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
568 as well:
569
570 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
571 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
572 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
573 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
574 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
575 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
576 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
577
578 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
579 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
580 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
581
582 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
583 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

595 available (such as the EFI variable services).
596
597 This option is only useful on systems that have EFI firmware
598 and will result in a kernel image that is ~8k larger. In addition,
599 you must use the latest ELILO loader available at
600 <http://elilo.sourceforge.net> in order to take advantage of
601 kernel initialization using EFI information (neither GRUB nor LILO know

635 that may need to compute untrusted bytecode during their

637 the process as file descriptors supporting the read/write
638 syscalls, it's possible to isolate those applications in
639 their own address space using seccomp. Once seccomp is
640 enabled via /proc/<pid>/seccomp, it cannot be disabled
641 and the task is only allowed to execute a few safe syscalls
642 defined by each seccomp mode.

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

654 but it is indepedent of the system firmware. And like a reboot
655 you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.
656

678 This gives the physical address where the kernel is loaded. Normally
679 for regular kernels this value is 0x100000 (1MB). But in the case
680 of kexec on panic the fail safe kernel needs to run at a different
681 address than the panic-ed kernel. This option is used to set the load
682 address for kernels used to capture crash dump on being kexec'ed
683 after panic. The default value for crash dump kernels is
684 0x1000000 (16MB). This can also be set based on the "X" value as
685 specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM" command line boot parameter
686 passed to the panic-ed kernel. Typically this parameter is set as
687 crashkernel=64M@16M. Please take a look at

708 ---help---
709 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
710 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
711 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
712 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
713 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
714 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
715
716 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
717 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
718
719 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
720 machines with more than one CPU.
721
722 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
723 and more information, read <file:Documentation/pm.txt> and the
724 Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
725 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
726
727 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
728 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
729 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
730
731 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
732 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
733 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
734 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
735
736 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
737 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
738 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
739 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
740 APM in your BIOS).
741
742 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
743 "weird" problems:
744
745 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
746 enabled.
747 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
748 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
749 the "no387" option to the kernel
750 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
751 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
752 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
753 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
754 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
755 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
756 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
757 10) install a better fan for the CPU
758 11) exchange RAM chips
759 12) exchange the motherboard.

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

776 Enable APM features at boot time. From page 36 of the APM BIOS
777 specification: "When disabled, the APM BIOS does not automatically
778 power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend
779 State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
780 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
781 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
782 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
783 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
784 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
785 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
786 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba
787 T400CDT. This is off by default since most machines do fine without
788 this feature.

794 Enable calls to APM CPU Idle/CPU Busy inside the kernel's idle loop.
795 On some machines, this can activate improved power savings, such as
796 a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
797 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,
798 333 mS). On some machines, this will cause a hang at boot time or
799 whenever the CPU becomes idle. (On machines with more than one CPU,

810 when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
811 do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
