menu "Processor type and features" source "kernel/time/Kconfig" config SMP bool "Symmetric multi-processing support" ---help--- This enables support for systems with more than one CPU. If you have a system with only one CPU, like most personal computers, say N. If you have a system with more than one CPU, say Y. If you say N here, the kernel will run on single and multiprocessor machines, but will use only one CPU of a multiprocessor machine. If you say Y here, the kernel will run on many, but not all, singleprocessor machines. On a singleprocessor machine, the kernel will run faster if you say N here. Note that if you say Y here and choose architecture "586" or "Pentium" under "Processor family", the kernel will not work on 486 architectures. Similarly, multiprocessor kernels for the "PPro" architecture may not work on all Pentium based boards. People using multiprocessor machines who say Y here should also say Y to "Enhanced Real Time Clock Support", below. The "Advanced Power Management" code will be disabled if you say Y here. |

APB timers are always running regardless of CPU C states, they are used as per CPU clockevent device when possible. |

Support for full DMA access of devices with 32bit memory access only on systems with more than 3GB. This is usually needed for USB, sound, many IDE/SATA chipsets and some other devices. Provides a driver for the AMD Athlon64/Opteron/Turion/Sempron GART based hardware IOMMU and a software bounce buffer based IOMMU used on Intel systems and as fallback.

Support for hardware IOMMUs in IBM's xSeries x366 and x460 systems. Needed to run systems with more than 3GB of memory properly with 32-bit PCI devices that do not support DAC (Double Address Cycle). Calgary also supports bus level isolation, where all DMAs pass through the IOMMU. This prevents them from going anywhere except their intended destination. This catches hard-to-find kernel bugs and mis-behaving drivers and devices that do not use the DMA-API properly to set up their DMA buffers. The IOMMU can be turned off at boot time with the iommu=off parameter. Normally the kernel will make the right choice by itself. If unsure, say Y. config CALGARY_IOMMU_ENABLED_BY_DEFAULT |

This option enables a workaround that fixes a source of spurious interrupts. This is recommended when threaded interrupt handling is used on systems where the generation of superfluous "boot interrupts" cannot be disabled. Some chipsets generate a legacy INTx "boot IRQ" when the IRQ entry in the chipset's IO-APIC is masked (as, e.g. the RT kernel does during interrupt handling). On chipsets where this boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring down (vital) interrupt lines. Only affects "broken" chipsets. Interrupt sharing may be increased on these systems. |

depends on X86_32 config NOHIGHMEM bool "off" depends on !X86_NUMAQ ---help--- Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems. However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called "high memory". If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB" split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as possible. If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then answer "4GB" here. If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on. PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully supported by Linux, PAE mode is implemented on all recent Intel processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here, then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE! The actual amount of total physical memory will either be auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option such as "mem=256M". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at boot time.) If unsure, say "off". config HIGHMEM4G bool "4GB" depends on !X86_NUMAQ |

Select the desired split between kernel and user memory. If the address range available to the kernel is less than the physical memory installed, the remaining memory will be available as "high memory". Accessing high memory is a little more costly than low memory, as it needs to be mapped into the kernel first. Note that increasing the kernel address space limits the range available to user programs, making the address space there tighter. Selecting anything other than the default 3G/1G split will also likely make your kernel incompatible with binary-only kernel modules.

bool "Check for low memory corruption" ---help--- Periodically check for memory corruption in low memory, which is suspected to be caused by BIOS. Even when enabled in the configuration, it is disabled at runtime. Enable it by setting "memory_corruption_check=1" on the kernel command line. By default it scans the low 64k of memory every 60 seconds; see the memory_corruption_check_size and memory_corruption_check_period parameters in Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt to adjust this. When enabled with the default parameters, this option has almost no overhead, as it reserves a relatively small amount of memory and scans it infrequently. It both detects corruption and prevents it from affecting the running system. It is, however, intended as a diagnostic tool; if repeatable BIOS-originated corruption always affects the same memory, you can use memmap= to prevent the kernel from using that memory. |

config MATH_EMULATION bool prompt "Math emulation" if X86_32 ---help--- Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a coprocessor or this emulation. If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you intend to use this kernel on different machines. More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>. If you are not sure, say Y; apart from resulting in a 66 KB bigger kernel, it won't hurt. config MTRR |

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

kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your current kernel, and to start another kernel. It is like a reboot but it is independent of the system firmware. And like a reboot you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux. The name comes from the similarity to the exec system call. It is an ongoing process to be certain the hardware in a machine is properly shutdown, so do not be surprised if this code does not initially work for you. It may help to enable device hotplugging support. As of this writing the exact hardware interface is strongly in flux, so no good recommendation can be made. config CRASH_DUMP |

Generate crash dump after being started by kexec. This should be normally only set in special crash dump kernels which are loaded in the main kernel with kexec-tools into a specially reserved region and then later executed after a crash by kdump/kexec. The crash dump kernel must be compiled to a memory address not used by the main kernel or BIOS using PHYSICAL_START, or it must be built as a relocatable image (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y).

This gives the physical address where the kernel is loaded. If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical address. In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy. |

So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump, leave the value here unchanged to 0x1000000 and set CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux for capturing the crash dump change this value to start of the reserved region. In other words, it can be set based on the "X" value as specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM" command line boot parameter passed to the panic-ed kernel. Please take a look at Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt for more details about crash dumps. |

Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it is present because there are users out there who continue to use vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the line. Don't change this unless you know what you are doing. config RELOCATABLE |

This builds a kernel image that retains relocation information so it can be loaded someplace besides the default 1MB. The relocations tend to make the kernel binary about 10% larger, but are discarded at runtime. One use is for the kexec on panic case where the recovery kernel must live at a different physical address than the primary kernel. Note: If CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y, then the kernel runs from the address it has been loaded at and the compile time physical address (CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START) is ignored. |

This value puts the alignment restrictions on physical address where kernel is loaded and run from. Kernel is compiled for an address which meets above alignment restriction. If bootloader loads the kernel at a non-aligned address and CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is set, kernel will move itself to nearest address aligned to above value and run from there. If bootloader loads the kernel at a non-aligned address and CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is not set, kernel will ignore the run time load address and decompress itself to the address it has been compiled for and run from there. The address for which kernel is compiled already meets above alignment restrictions. Hence the end result is that kernel runs from a physical address meeting above alignment restrictions.

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

<http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8) manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off VESA-compliant "green" monitors. This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green" desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase. Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling APM in your BIOS). Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random, "weird" problems: 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is enabled. 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass the "no387" option to the kernel 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling all but the first 4 MB of RAM) 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked. 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/> 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM 10) install a better fan for the CPU 11) exchange RAM chips 12) exchange the motherboard. To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called apm. if APM config APM_IGNORE_USER_SUSPEND bool "Ignore USER SUSPEND" |

This option will ignore USER SUSPEND requests. On machines with a compliant APM BIOS, you want to say N. However, on the NEC Versa M series notebooks, it is necessary to say Y because of a BIOS bug. config APM_DO_ENABLE bool "Enable PM at boot time" ---help--- Enable APM features at boot time. From page 36 of the APM BIOS specification: "When disabled, the APM BIOS does not automatically power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls." This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba T400CDT. This is off by default since most machines do fine without this feature. config APM_CPU_IDLE bool "Make CPU Idle calls when idle" |

Enable calls to APM CPU Idle/CPU Busy inside the kernel's idle loop. On some machines, this can activate improved power savings, such as a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g., 333 mS). On some machines, this will cause a hang at boot time or whenever the CPU becomes idle.

Note that this is only used by the virtual console screen blanker, and won't turn off the backlight when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your backlight at all, or it might print a lot of errors to the console, especially if you are using gpm. config APM_ALLOW_INTS bool "Allow interrupts during APM BIOS calls" |

The BIOS should reenable interrupts if it needs to. Unfortunately, some BIOSes do not -- especially those in many of the newer IBM Thinkpads. If you experience hangs when you suspend, try setting this to Y. Otherwise, say N. |
