42 in order to test the non static function tracing in the

44 only need to keep it around for x86_64. No need to keep it

1197 Some very old versions of X and/or vbetool require this option
1198 for user mode setting. Similarly, DOSEMU will use it if
1199 available to accelerate real mode DOS programs. However, any
1200 recent version of DOSEMU, X, or vbetool should be fully
1201 functional even without kernel VM86 support, as they will all
1202 fall back to software emulation. Nevertheless, if you are using
1203 a 16-bit DOS program where 16-bit performance matters, vm86
1204 mode might be faster than emulation and you might want to

1418 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
1419 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
1420 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
1421 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
1422 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
1423 "high memory".
1424
1425 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
1426 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
1427 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
1428 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
1429 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
1430 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
1431 possible.
1432

1434 answer "4GB" here.
1435
1436 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
1437 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
1438 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully

1727 Periodically check for memory corruption in low memory, which
1728 is suspected to be caused by BIOS. Even when enabled in the
1729 configuration, it is disabled at runtime. Enable it by
1730 setting "memory_corruption_check=1" on the kernel command
1731 line. By default it scans the low 64k of memory every 60
1732 seconds; see the memory_corruption_check_size and
1733 memory_corruption_check_period parameters in
1734 Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.rst to adjust this.
1735
1736 When enabled with the default parameters, this option has
1737 almost no overhead, as it reserves a relatively small amount
1738 of memory and scans it infrequently. It both detects corruption
1739 and prevents it from affecting the running system.
1740
1741 It is, however, intended as a diagnostic tool; if repeatable

1761 The first page contains BIOS data structures that the kernel
1762 must not use, so that page must always be reserved.
1763
1764 By default we reserve the first 64K of physical RAM, as a
1765 number of BIOSes are known to corrupt that memory range
1766 during events such as suspend/resume or monitor cable
1767 insertion, so it must not be used by the kernel.
1768
1769 You can set this to 4 if you are absolutely sure that you
1770 trust the BIOS to get all its memory reservations and usages
1771 right. If you know your BIOS have problems beyond the
1772 default 64K area, you can set this to 640 to avoid using the
1773 entire low memory range.
1774
1775 If you have doubts about the BIOS (e.g. suspend/resume does
1776 not work or there's kernel crashes after certain hardware
1777 hotplug events) then you might want to enable
1778 X86_CHECK_BIOS_CORRUPTION=y to allow the kernel to check

1788 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
1789 operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
1790 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
1791 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
1792 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
1793 coprocessor or this emulation.
1794
1795 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1796 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1797 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1798 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1799 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1800 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1801 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1802 intend to use this kernel on different machines.

1805 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.

1813 ---help---
1814 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1815 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1816 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1817 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1818 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1819 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1820 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1821 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1822 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1823
1824 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1825 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1826 as well:
1827
1828 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1829 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1830 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1831 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1832 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1833 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1834 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1835
1836 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1837 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1838 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1839
1840 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1841 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

2125 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical

2127
2128 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
2129 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
2130 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
2131 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
2132 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
2133 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
2134 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
2135 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
2136
2137 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump,
2138 leave the value here unchanged to 0x1000000 and set
2139 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux
2140 for capturing the crash dump change this value to start of
2141 the reserved region. In other words, it can be set based on
2142 the "X" value as specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM"
2143 command line boot parameter passed to the panic-ed
2144 kernel. Please take a look at Documentation/admin-guide/kdump/kdump.rst
2145 for more details about crash dumps.
2146
2147 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
2148 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
2149 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
2150 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
2151 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
2152 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the

2198 supported. If RDTSC is supported, its value is mixed into
2199 the entropy pool as well. If neither RDRAND nor RDTSC are
2200 supported, then entropy is read from the i8254 timer. The
2201 usable entropy is limited by the kernel being built using
2202 2GB addressing, and that PHYSICAL_ALIGN must be at a
2203 minimum of 2MB. As a result, only 10 bits of entropy are
2204 theoretically possible, but the implementations are further

2518 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
2519 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
2520 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
2521 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
2522 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
2523 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
2524
2525 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
2526 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
2527
2528 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
2529 machines with more than one CPU.
2530
2531 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
2532 and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/apm-acpi.rst>
2533 and the Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
2534 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.

2536 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
2537 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
2538 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
2539
2540 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
2541 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
2542 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
2543 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
2544
2545 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
2546 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
2547 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
2548 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
2549 APM in your BIOS).
2550
2551 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
2552 "weird" problems:
2553
2554 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
2555 enabled.
2556 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
2557 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
2558 the "no387" option to the kernel
2559 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
2560 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
2561 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
2562 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
2563 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
2564 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
2565 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
2566 10) install a better fan for the CPU
2567 11) exchange RAM chips
2568 12) exchange the motherboard.

2750 name of a bus system, i.e. the way the CPU talks to the other stuff
2751 inside your box. Other bus systems are PCI, EISA, MicroChannel
2752 (MCA) or VESA. ISA is an older system, now being displaced by PCI;
2753 newer boards don't support it. If you have ISA, say Y, otherwise N.

2869 help
2870 Firmwares often provide initial graphics framebuffers so the BIOS,
2871 bootloader or kernel can show basic video-output during boot for
2872 user-guidance and debugging. Historically, x86 used the VESA BIOS
2873 Extensions and EFI-framebuffers for this, which are mostly limited
2874 to x86.
2875 This option, if enabled, marks VGA/VBE/EFI framebuffers as generic
2876 framebuffers so the new generic system-framebuffer drivers can be
2877 used on x86. If the framebuffer is not compatible with the generic
2878 modes, it is advertised as fallback platform framebuffer so legacy
2879 drivers like efifb, vesafb and uvesafb can pick it up.
2880 If this option is not selected, all system framebuffers are always
2881 marked as fallback platform framebuffers as usual.
2882
2883 Note: Legacy fbdev drivers, including vesafb, efifb, uvesafb, will
2884 not be able to pick up generic system framebuffers if this option
2885 is selected. You are highly encouraged to enable simplefb as
2886 replacement if you select this option. simplefb can correctly deal
2887 with generic system framebuffers. But you should still keep vesafb
2888 and others enabled as fallback if a system framebuffer is
2889 incompatible with simplefb.
