  145. This enables support for systems with more than one CPU. If you have
  146. a system with only one CPU, like most personal computers, say N. If
  147. you have a system with more than one CPU, say Y.
  148. If you say N here, the kernel will run on single and multiprocessor
  149. machines, but will use only one CPU of a multiprocessor machine. If
  150. you say Y here, the kernel will run on many, but not all,
  151. singleprocessor machines. On a singleprocessor machine, the kernel
  152. will run faster if you say N here.
  153. Note that if you say Y here and choose architecture "586" or
  154. "Pentium" under "Processor family", the kernel will not work on 486
  155. architectures. Similarly, multiprocessor kernels for the "PPro"
  156. architecture may not work on all Pentium based boards.
  157. People using multiprocessor machines who say Y here should also say
  158. Y to "Enhanced Real Time Clock Support", below. The "Advanced Power
  159. Management" code will be disabled if you say Y here.
  160. See also <file:Documentation/i386/IO-APIC.txt>,

  600. space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used

  602. possible.

  611. The actual amount of total physical memory will either be

  783. a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
  784. a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
  785. give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
  786. coprocessor or this emulation.
  787. If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
  788. say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
  789. be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
  790. command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
  791. is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
  792. loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
  793. boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
  794. intend to use this kernel on different machines.
  795. More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
  796. emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.

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

  932. the value here unchanged to 0x100000 and set CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.
  933. Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux for capturing the crash dump

  1047. much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
  1048. random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to

  1050. APM in your BIOS).
  1051. Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
  1052. "weird" problems:
  1053. 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
  1054. enabled.
  1055. 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
  1056. 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
  1057. the "no387" option to the kernel
  1058. 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
  1059. 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
  1060. all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
  1061. 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
  1062. 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
  1063. 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
  1064. 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
  1065. 10) install a better fan for the CPU
  1066. 11) exchange RAM chips
  1067. 12) exchange the motherboard.

  1099. are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,
