320 If you say N here, the kernel will run on uni- and multiprocessor
321 machines, but will use only one CPU of a multiprocessor machine. If
322 you say Y here, the kernel will run on many, but not all,
323 uniprocessor machines. On a uniprocessor machine, the kernel
324 will run faster if you say N here.
325
326 Note that if you say Y here and choose architecture "586" or
327 "Pentium" under "Processor family", the kernel will not work on 486
328 architectures. Similarly, multiprocessor kernels for the "PPro"
329 architecture may not work on all Pentium based boards.

947 boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps
948 the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot
949 IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the
950 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this
951 way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise
952 the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring

1212 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
1213 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
1214 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
1215 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
1216 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
1217 "high memory".
1218
1219 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
1220 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
1221 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
1222 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
1223 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
1224 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
1225 possible.
1226
1227 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
1228 answer "4GB" here.
1229
1230 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
1231 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
1232 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully
1233 supported by Linux, PAE mode is implemented on all recent Intel
1234 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
1235 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
1236
1237 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be
1238 auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option
1239 such as "mem=256M". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of

1549 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can

1572 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1573 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1574 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1575 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1576 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1577 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1578 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1579 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1580 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1581
1582 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1583 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1584 as well:
1585
1586 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1587 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1588 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1589 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1590 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1591 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1592 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1593
1594 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1595 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1596 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1597
1598 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1599 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1678 MPX provides hardware features that can be used in
1679 conjunction with compiler-instrumented code to check
1680 memory references. It is designed to detect buffer
1681 overflow or underflow bugs.
1682
1683 This option enables running applications which are
1684 instrumented or otherwise use MPX. It does not use MPX
1685 itself inside the kernel or to protect the kernel
1686 against bad memory references.
1687
1688 Enabling this option will make the kernel larger:
1689 ~8k of kernel text and 36 bytes of data on a 64-bit
1690 defconfig. It adds a long to the 'mm_struct' which
1691 will increase the kernel memory overhead of each
1692 process and adds some branches to paths used during
1693 exec() and munmap().

1812 which are loaded in the main kernel with kexec-tools into

1814 a crash by kdump/kexec. The crash dump kernel must be compiled
1815 to a memory address not used by the main kernel or BIOS using

1831 This gives the physical address where the kernel is loaded.
1832
1833 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
1834 bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and
1835 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
1836 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1837 address.
1838
1839 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1840 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1841 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1842 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1843 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1844 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1845 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1846 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
1847
1848 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump,
1849 leave the value here unchanged to 0x1000000 and set
1850 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux
1851 for capturing the crash dump change this value to start of
1852 the reserved region. In other words, it can be set based on
1853 the "X" value as specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM"
1854 command line boot parameter passed to the panic-ed
1855 kernel. Please take a look at Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt
1856 for more details about crash dumps.
1857
1858 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1859 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1860 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1861 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1862 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1863 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
1864 line.

1874 The relocations tend to make the kernel binary about 10% larger,
1875 but are discarded at runtime.
1876
1877 One use is for the kexec on panic case where the recovery kernel
1878 must live at a different physical address than the primary

1900 The kernel will be offset by up to RANDOMIZE_BASE_MAX_OFFSET,
1901 and aligned according to PHYSICAL_ALIGN. Since the kernel is
1902 built using 2GiB addressing, and PHYSICAL_ALGIN must be at a
1903 minimum of 2MiB, only 10 bits of entropy is theoretically
1904 possible. At best, due to page table layouts, 64-bit can use

2152 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide

2157 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
2158
2159 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for

2170
2171 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
2172 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
2173 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
2174 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.

2181
2182 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
2183 "weird" problems:
2184
2185 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
2186 enabled.
2187 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
2188 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
2189 the "no387" option to the kernel
2190 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
2191 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
2192 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
2193 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
2194 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
2195 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
2196 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
2197 10) install a better fan for the CPU
2198 11) exchange RAM chips
2199 12) exchange the motherboard.

2217 specification: "When disabled, the APM BIOS does not automatically
2218 power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend
2219 State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
2220 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
2221 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
2222 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
2223 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
2224 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
2225 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
2226 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba

2235 On some machines, this can activate improved power savings, such as
2236 a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
2237 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,
2238 333 mS). On some machines, this will cause a hang at boot time or
2239 whenever the CPU becomes idle. (On machines with more than one CPU,

2247 virtual console blanks the screen. Note that this is only used by
2248 the virtual console screen blanker, and won't turn off the backlight
2249 when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
2250 do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
2251 option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your

2539 Firmwares often provide initial graphics framebuffers so the BIOS,

2542 Extensions and EFI-framebuffers for this, which are mostly limited
2543 to x86.
2544 This option, if enabled, marks VGA/VBE/EFI framebuffers as generic
2545 framebuffers so the new generic system-framebuffer drivers can be
2546 used on x86. If the framebuffer is not compatible with the generic
2547 modes, it is adverticed as fallback platform framebuffer so legacy
2548 drivers like efifb, vesafb and uvesafb can pick it up.
2549 If this option is not selected, all system framebuffers are always
2550 marked as fallback platform framebuffers as usual.
2551
2552 Note: Legacy fbdev drivers, including vesafb, efifb, uvesafb, will
2553 not be able to pick up generic system framebuffers if this option
2554 is selected. You are highly encouraged to enable simplefb as
