345 | Note that if you say Y here and choose architecture "586" or | |

347 | architectures. Similarly, multiprocessor kernels for the "PPro" | |
348 | architecture may not work on all Pentium based boards. | |
349 | ||
350 | People using multiprocessor machines who say Y here should also say | |
351 | Y to "Enhanced Real Time Clock Support", below. The "Advanced Power | |

980 | interrupt handling is used on systems where the generation of | |

984 | entry in the chipset's IO-APIC is masked (as, e.g. the RT | |
985 | kernel does during interrupt handling). On chipsets where this | |
986 | boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps | |
987 | the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot | |
988 | IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the | |
989 | kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this | |
990 | way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise | |
991 | the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring | |
992 | down (vital) interrupt lines. | |

1174 | e.g. Pentium Pro, Pentium II, Pentium III, Pentium 4, Xeon etc. The | |

1238 | Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems. | |
1239 | However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4 | |
1240 | Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of | |
1241 | physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the | |
1242 | kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called | |
1243 | "high memory". | |
1244 | ||
1245 | If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with | |
1246 | more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default | |
1247 | choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB" | |
1248 | split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory | |
1249 | space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used | |
1250 | by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as | |
1251 | possible. | |
1252 | ||
1253 | If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then | |
1254 | answer "4GB" here. | |
1255 | ||
1256 | If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This | |
1257 | selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on. | |
1258 | PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully | |
1259 | supported by Linux, PAE mode is implemented on all recent Intel | |
1260 | processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here, | |
1261 | then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE! | |
1262 | ||
1263 | The actual amount of total physical memory will either be | |
1264 | auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option | |
1265 | such as "mem=256M". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of | |
1266 | your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the | |

1572 | Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point | |
1573 | operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have | |
1574 | a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added | |
1575 | a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can | |
1576 | give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a | |
1577 | coprocessor or this emulation. | |
1578 | ||
1579 | If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you | |
1580 | say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will | |
1581 | be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel | |
1582 | command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor | |
1583 | is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot | |
1584 | loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at | |
1585 | boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you | |
1586 | intend to use this kernel on different machines. | |

506f1d07 SR |
1597 | ---help--- |
1598 | On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later) | |
1599 | the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control | |
1600 | processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have | |
1601 | a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining | |
1602 | allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer | |
1603 | before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance | |
1604 | of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a | |
1605 | /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's | |
1606 | MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this. | |
1607 | ||
1608 | This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar | |
1609 | control registers on other processors can be easily supported | |
1610 | as well: | |
1611 | ||
1612 | The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range | |
1613 | Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For | |
1614 | these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs. | |
1615 | The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two | |
1616 | MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing | |
1617 | write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code | |
1618 | and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them. | |
1619 | ||
1620 | Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only | |
1621 | set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This | |
1622 | can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here. | |
1623 | ||
1624 | You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll | |
1625 | just add about 9 KB to your kernel. | |

1930 | In support of Kernel Address Space Layout Randomization (KASLR), |
1931 | this randomizes the physical address at which the kernel image | |
1932 | is decompressed and the virtual address where the kernel | |

1937 | On 64-bit, the kernel physical and virtual addresses are |
1938 | randomized separately. The physical address will be anywhere | |
1939 | between 16MB and the top of physical memory (up to 64TB). The | |
1940 | virtual address will be randomized from 16MB up to 1GB (9 bits | |
1941 | of entropy). Note that this also reduces the memory space | |
1942 | available to kernel modules from 1.5GB to 1GB. | |

1944 | On 32-bit, the kernel physical and virtual addresses are | |

e8581e3d BH |

1948 | Entropy is generated using the RDRAND instruction if it is | |

1950 | the entropy pool as well. If neither RDRAND nor RDTSC are | |
ed9f007e KC |
1951 | supported, then entropy is read from the i8254 timer. The |
1952 | usable entropy is limited by the kernel being built using | |
1953 | 2GB addressing, and that PHYSICAL_ALIGN must be at a | |
1954 | minimum of 2MB. As a result, only 10 bits of entropy are | |

2227 | APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different | |

2229 | APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be | |
2230 | reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide | |
2231 | battery status information, and user-space programs will receive | |
2232 | notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change). | |
2233 | ||
2234 | If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM | |
2235 | BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time. | |
2236 | ||
2237 | Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for | |
2238 | machines with more than one CPU. | |
2239 | ||
2240 | In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location | |

2246 | manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off | |
2247 | VESA-compliant "green" monitors. | |
2248 | ||
2249 | This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER | |
2250 | 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green" | |
2251 | desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver | |
2252 | may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase. | |
2253 | ||
2254 | Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't | |
2255 | much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get | |
2256 | random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to | |
2257 | anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling | |
2258 | APM in your BIOS). | |
2259 | ||
2260 | Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random, | |
2261 | "weird" problems: | |
2262 | ||
2263 | 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is | |
2264 | enabled. | |
2265 | 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel | |
2266 | 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass | |
2267 | the "no387" option to the kernel | |
2268 | 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel | |
2269 | 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling | |
2270 | all but the first 4 MB of RAM) | |
2271 | 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked. | |
2272 | 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/> | |
2273 | 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings | |
2274 | 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM | |
2275 | 10) install a better fan for the CPU | |
2276 | 11) exchange RAM chips | |
2277 | 12) exchange the motherboard. | |

2622 | Firmwares often provide initial graphics framebuffers so the BIOS, | |

2629 | used on x86. If the framebuffer is not compatible with the generic | |
2630 | modes, it is adverticed as fallback platform framebuffer so legacy | |
2631 | drivers like efifb, vesafb and uvesafb can pick it up. | |
2632 | If this option is not selected, all system framebuffers are always | |

2722 | ---help--- | |
2723 | Adds support for the Intel Volume Management Device (VMD). VMD is a | |
2724 | secondary PCI host bridge that allows PCI Express root ports, | |
2725 | and devices attached to them, to be removed from the default | |
2726 | PCI domain and placed within the VMD domain. This provides | |
2727 | more bus resources than are otherwise possible with a | |
2728 | single domain. If you know your system provides one of these and | |
2729 | has devices attached to it, say Y; if you are not sure, say N. | |
