242 This enables support for systems with more than one CPU. If you have
243 a system with only one CPU, like most personal computers, say N. If
244 you have a system with more than one CPU, say Y.
245
246 If you say N here, the kernel will run on single and multiprocessor
247 machines, but will use only one CPU of a multiprocessor machine. If
248 you say Y here, the kernel will run on many, but not all,
249 singleprocessor machines. On a singleprocessor machine, the kernel
250 will run faster if you say N here.
251
252 Note that if you say Y here and choose architecture "586" or
253 "Pentium" under "Processor family", the kernel will not work on 486
254 architectures. Similarly, multiprocessor kernels for the "PPro"
255 architecture may not work on all Pentium based boards.
256
257 People using multiprocessor machines who say Y here should also say
258 Y to "Enhanced Real Time Clock Support", below. The "Advanced Power
259 Management" code will be disabled if you say Y here.

797 This option enables a workaround that fixes a source of
798 spurious interrupts. This is recommended when threaded
799 interrupt handling is used on systems where the generation of
800 superfluous "boot interrupts" cannot be disabled.
801
802 Some chipsets generate a legacy INTx "boot IRQ" when the IRQ
803 entry in the chipset's IO-APIC is masked (as, e.g. the RT
804 kernel does during interrupt handling). On chipsets where this
805 boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps
806 the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot
807 IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the
808 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this
809 way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise
810 the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring
811 down (vital) interrupt lines.

1005 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
1006 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
1007 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
1008 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
1009 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
1010 "high memory".
1011
1012 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
1013 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
1014 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
1015 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
1016 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
1017 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
1018 possible.
1019
1020 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
1021 answer "4GB" here.
1022
1023 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
1024 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
1025 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully
1026 supported by Linux, PAE mode is implemented on all recent Intel
1027 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
1028 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
1029
1030 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be
1031 auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option
1032 such as "mem=256M". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of
1033 your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the

1347 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1348
1349 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1350 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1351 as well:
1352
1353 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1354 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1355 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1356 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1357 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1358 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1359 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1360
1361 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1362 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1363 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1364
1365 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1366 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1511 This gives the physical address where the kernel is loaded.

1513 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
1514 bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and

1516 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1517 address.

1519 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1520 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1521 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1522 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1523 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1524 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1525 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1526 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.

1528 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump,

1530 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux
1531 for capturing the crash dump change this value to start of
1532 the reserved region. In other words, it can be set based on
1533 the "X" value as specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM"
1534 command line boot parameter passed to the panic-ed
1535 kernel. Please take a look at Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt
1536 for more details about crash dumps.
506f1d07
SR
1537
1538 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1539 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1540 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1541 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1542 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1543 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
1544 line.

1716 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
1717 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
1718
1719 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
1720 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
1721 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
1722 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
1723
1724 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
1725 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
1726 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
1727 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
1728 APM in your BIOS).
1729
1730 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
1731 "weird" problems:
1732
1733 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
1734 enabled.
1735 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
1736 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
1737 the "no387" option to the kernel
1738 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
1739 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1740 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1741 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1742 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1743 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1744 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
1745 10) install a better fan for the CPU
1746 11) exchange RAM chips
1747 12) exchange the motherboard.

1792 Enable console blanking using the APM. Some laptops can use this to
1793 turn off the LCD backlight when the screen blanker of the Linux
1794 virtual console blanks the screen. Note that this is only used by
1795 the virtual console screen blanker, and won't turn off the backlight
1796 when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
1797 do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
1798 option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your
1799 backlight at all, or it might print a lot of errors to the console,
1800 especially if you are using gpm.

1805 Normally we disable external interrupts while we are making calls to
1806 the APM BIOS as a measure to lessen the effects of a badly behaving
1807 BIOS implementation. The BIOS should reenable interrupts if it
1808 needs to. Unfortunately, some BIOSes do not -- especially those in
1809 many of the newer IBM Thinkpads. If you experience hangs when you
1810 suspend, try setting this to Y. Otherwise, say N.

1840 On PCI systems, the BIOS can be used to detect the PCI devices and
1841 determine their configuration. However, some old PCI motherboards
1842 have BIOS bugs and may crash if this is done. Also, some embedded
1843 PCI-based systems don't have any BIOS at all. Linux can also try to
1844 detect the PCI hardware directly without using the BIOS.
1845
1846 With this option, you can specify how Linux should detect the
1847 PCI devices. If you choose "BIOS", the BIOS will be used,
1848 if you choose "Direct", the BIOS won't be used, and if you
1849 choose "MMConfig", then PCI Express MMCONFIG will be used.
1850 If you choose "Any", the kernel will try MMCONFIG, then the
1851 direct access method and falls back to the BIOS if that doesn't
1852 work. If unsure, go with the default, which is "Any".
