895 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this

1161 If the address range available to the kernel is less than the
1162 physical memory installed, the remaining memory will be available
1163 as "high memory". Accessing high memory is a little more costly
1164 than low memory, as it needs to be mapped into the kernel first.
1165 Note that increasing the kernel address space limits the range
1166 available to user programs, making the address space there
1167 tighter. Selecting anything other than the default 3G/1G split

1404 trust the BIOS to get all its memory reservations and usages
1405 right. If you know your BIOS have problems beyond the
1406 default 64K area, you can set this to 640 to avoid using the
1407 entire low memory range.

1410 not work or there's kernel crashes after certain hardware

1423 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
1424 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
1425 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
1426 coprocessor or this emulation.
1427
1428 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1429 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1430 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1431 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1432 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1433 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1434 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1435 intend to use this kernel on different machines.

1438 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.

1447 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1448 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1449 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1450 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1451 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1452 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1453 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1454 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1455 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1456
1457 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1458 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1459 as well:
1460
1461 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1462 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1463 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1464 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1465 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1466 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1467 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1468
1469 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1470 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1471 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1472
1473 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1474 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1651 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
1652 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1653 address.
1654
1655 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1656 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1657 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1658 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1659 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1660 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1661 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1662 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
1663
1664 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump,
1665 leave the value here unchanged to 0x1000000 and set
1666 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux

1678 is present because there are users out there who continue to use

1872 ---help---
1873 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
1874 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
1875 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
1876 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
1877 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
1878 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
1879
1880 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
1881 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
1882
1883 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
1884 machines with more than one CPU.
1885
1886 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
1887 and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/apm-acpi.txt>
1888 and the Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
1889 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
1890
1891 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
1892 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
1893 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
1894
1895 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
1896 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
1897 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
1898 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
1899
1900 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
1901 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
1902 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
1903 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
1904 APM in your BIOS).
1905
1906 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
1907 "weird" problems:
1908
1909 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
1910 enabled.
1911 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
1912 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
1913 the "no387" option to the kernel
1914 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
1915 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1916 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1917 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1918 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1919 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1920 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
1921 10) install a better fan for the CPU
1922 11) exchange RAM chips
1923 12) exchange the motherboard.

1943 State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
1944 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
1945 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
1946 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
1947 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
1948 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
1949 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
1950 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba

1960 a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
1961 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,

2208 ---help---
2209 This option enables system support for the PCEngines ALIX.
2210 At present this just sets up LEDs for GPIO control on
2211 ALIX2/3/6 boards. However, other system specific setup should
2212 get added here.
2213
2214 Note: You must still enable the drivers for GPIO and LED support
2215 (GPIO_CS5535 & LEDS_GPIO) to actually use the LEDs
2216
2217 Note: You have to set alix.force=1 for boards with Award BIOS.
