334 This enables support for systems with more than one CPU. If you have

336 than one CPU, say Y.
337
338 If you say N here, the kernel will run on uni- and multiprocessor
339 machines, but will use only one CPU of a multiprocessor machine. If
340 you say Y here, the kernel will run on many, but not all,
341 uniprocessor machines. On a uniprocessor machine, the kernel
342 will run faster if you say N here.
343
344 Note that if you say Y here and choose architecture "586" or
345 "Pentium" under "Processor family", the kernel will not work on 486
346 architectures. Similarly, multiprocessor kernels for the "PPro"
347 architecture may not work on all Pentium based boards.
348
349 People using multiprocessor machines who say Y here should also say
350 Y to "Enhanced Real Time Clock Support", below. The "Advanced Power
351 Management" code will be disabled if you say Y here.
352
353 See also <file:Documentation/x86/i386/IO-APIC.txt>,
354 <file:Documentation/nmi_watchdog.txt> and the SMP-HOWTO available at

375 Say Y here for the kernel to patch in the appropriate code at runtime
376 based on the capabilities of the CPU. The infrastructure for patching
377 code at runtime takes up some additional space; space-constrained

997 the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot
998 IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the
999 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this

1248 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
1249 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
1250 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
1251 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
1252 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
1253 "high memory".
1254
1255 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
1256 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
1257 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
1258 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
1259 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
1260 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
1261 possible.
1262
1263 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
1264 answer "4GB" here.
1265
1266 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
1267 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
1268 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully
1269 supported by Linux, PAE mode is implemented on all recent Intel
1270 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
1271 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
1272
1273 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be
1274 auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option
1275 such as "mem=256M". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of
1276 your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the

1607 ---help---
1608 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1609 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1610 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1611 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1612 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1613 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1614 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1615 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1616 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1617
1618 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1619 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1620 as well:
1621
1622 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1623 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1624 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1625 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1626 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1627 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1628 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1629
1630 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1631 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1632 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1633
1634 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1635 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1885 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
1886 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1887 address.
1888
1889 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1890 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1891 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1892 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1893 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1894 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1895 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1896 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
1897
1898 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump,
1899 leave the value here unchanged to 0x1000000 and set
1900 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux
1901 for capturing the crash dump change this value to start of
1902 the reserved region. In other words, it can be set based on
1903 the "X" value as specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM"
1904 command line boot parameter passed to the panic-ed
1905 kernel. Please take a look at Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt
1906 for more details about crash dumps.
1907
1908 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1909 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1910 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1911 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1912 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1913 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
1914 line.

1941 this randomizes the physical address at which the kernel image
1942 is decompressed and the virtual address where the kernel
1943 image is mapped, as a security feature that deters exploit
1944 attempts relying on knowledge of the location of kernel
1945 code internals.
1946
1947 On 64-bit, the kernel physical and virtual addresses are
1948 randomized separately. The physical address will be anywhere
1949 between 16MB and the top of physical memory (up to 64TB). The
1950 virtual address will be randomized from 16MB up to 1GB (9 bits
1951 of entropy). Note that this also reduces the memory space
1952 available to kernel modules from 1.5GB to 1GB.
1953
1954 On 32-bit, the kernel physical and virtual addresses are
1955 randomized together. They will be randomized from 16MB up to
1956 512MB (8 bits of entropy).
1957
1958 Entropy is generated using the RDRAND instruction if it is
1959 supported. If RDTSC is supported, its value is mixed into
1960 the entropy pool as well. If neither RDRAND nor RDTSC are
1961 supported, then entropy is read from the i8254 timer. The
1962 usable entropy is limited by the kernel being built using
1963 2GB addressing, and that PHYSICAL_ALIGN must be at a
1964 minimum of 2MB. As a result, only 10 bits of entropy are
1965 theoretically possible, but the implementations are further
1966 limited due to memory layouts.
1967
1968 If CONFIG_HIBERNATE is also enabled, KASLR is disabled at boot
1969 time. To enable it, boot with "kaslr" on the kernel command

2216 DOSEMU or some Wine programs. It is also used by some very old

2268 ---help---
2269 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
2270 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
2271 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
2272 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
2273 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
2274 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
2275
2276 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
2277 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
2278
2279 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
2280 machines with more than one CPU.
2281
2282 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
2283 and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/apm-acpi.txt>
2284 and the Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
2285 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
2286
2287 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
2288 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
2289 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
2290
2291 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
2292 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
2293 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
2294 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
2295
2296 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
2297 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
2298 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
2299 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
2300 APM in your BIOS).
2301
2302 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
2303 "weird" problems:
2304
2305 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
2306 enabled.
2307 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
2308 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
2309 the "no387" option to the kernel
2310 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
2311 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
2312 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
2313 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
2314 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
2315 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
2316 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
2317 10) install a better fan for the CPU
2318 11) exchange RAM chips
2319 12) exchange the motherboard.

2338 power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend
2339 State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
2340 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
2341 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
2342 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
2343 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
2344 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
2345 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
2346 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba

2356 a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
2357 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,

2368 the virtual console screen blanker, and won't turn off the backlight
2369 when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
2370 do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
