  32. This option controls whether tracing thread support is compiled

  34. skas security and performance without needing to patch the host.
  35. It is safe to say 'N' here.

  40. help
  41. If CONFIG_MODE_TT is disabled, then this option gives you the ability
  42. to force a static link of UML. Normally, if only skas mode is built
  43. in to UML, it will be linked as a shared binary. This is inconvenient
  44. for use in a chroot jail. So, if you intend to run UML inside a
  45. chroot, and you disable CONFIG_MODE_TT, you probably want to say Y
  46. here.

  52. This is needed when the host on which you run has a 2G/2G memory
  53. split, instead of the customary 3G/1G.
  54. Note that to enable such a host
  55. configuration, which makes sense only in some cases, you need special
  56. host patches.
  57. So, if you do not know what to do here, say 'N'.

  63. This determines the amount of address space that UML will allocate for
  64. its own, measured in half Gigabyte units. The default is 1.
  65. Change this only if you need to boot UML with an unusually large amount
  66. of physical memory.

  70. help
  71. This option controls whether skas (separate kernel address space)
  72. support is compiled in. If you have applied the skas patch to the
  73. host, then you certainly want to say Y here (and consider saying N
  74. to CONFIG_MODE_TT). Otherwise, it is safe to say Y. Disabling this
  75. option will shrink the UML binary slightly.

  88. help
  89. Unless you really know what you are doing, you should say Y here.
  90. The reason is that some programs need kernel networking support even
  91. when running on a stand-alone machine that isn't connected to any
  92. other computer. If you are upgrading from an older kernel, you
  93. should consider updating your networking tools too because changes
  94. in the kernel and the tools often go hand in hand. The tools are
  95. contained in the package net-tools, the location and version number
  96. of which are given in <file:Documentation/Changes>.
  97. For a general introduction to Linux networking, it is highly
  98. recommended to read the NET-HOWTO, available from
  99. <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.

  103. help
  104. While the User-Mode Linux port uses its own root file system for
  105. booting and normal file access, this module lets the UML user
  106. access files stored on the host. It does not require any
  107. network connection between the Host and UML. An example use of
  108. this might be:
  109. mount none /tmp/fromhost -t hostfs -o /tmp/umlshare
  110. where /tmp/fromhost is an empty directory inside UML and
  111. /tmp/umlshare is a directory on the host with files the UML user
  112. wishes to access.
  113. For more information, see
  114. <http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/hostfs.html>.
  115. If you'd like to be able to work with files stored on the host,
  116. say Y or M here; otherwise say N.
  117. config HPPFS
  118. tristate "HoneyPot ProcFS (EXPERIMENTAL)"
  119. depends on EXPERIMENTAL
  120. help
  121. hppfs (HoneyPot ProcFS) is a filesystem which allows UML /proc
  122. entries to be overridden, removed, or fabricated from the host.
  123. Its purpose is to allow a UML to appear to be a physical machine
  124. by removing or changing anything in /proc which gives away the
  125. identity of a UML.
  126. See <http://user-mode-linux.sf.net/hppfs.html> for more information.
  127. You only need this if you are setting up a UML honeypot. Otherwise,
  128. it is safe to say 'N' here.
  129. config MCONSOLE
  130. bool "Management console"
  131. default y
  132. help
  133. The user mode linux management console is a low-level interface to
  134. the kernel, somewhat like the i386 SysRq interface. Since there is
  135. a full-blown operating system running under every user mode linux
  136. instance, there is much greater flexibility possible than with the
  137. SysRq mechanism.
  138. If you answer 'Y' to this option, to use this feature, you need the
  139. mconsole client (called uml_mconsole) which is present in CVS in
  140. 2.4.5-9um and later (path /tools/mconsole), and is also in the
  141. distribution RPM package in 2.4.6 and later.
  142. It is safe to say 'Y' here.
  143. config MAGIC_SYSRQ
  144. bool "Magic SysRq key"
  145. depends on MCONSOLE
  146. ---help---
  147. If you say Y here, you will have some control over the system even
  148. if the system crashes for example during kernel debugging (e.g., you
  149. will be able to flush the buffer cache to disk, reboot the system
  150. immediately or dump some status information). A key for each of the
  151. possible requests is provided.
  152. This is the feature normally accomplished by pressing a key
  153. while holding SysRq (Alt+PrintScreen).
  154. On UML, this is accomplished by sending a "sysrq" command with
  155. mconsole, followed by the letter for the requested command.
  156. The keys are documented in <file:Documentation/sysrq.txt>. Don't say Y
  157. unless you really know what this hack does.
  158. config SMP
  159. bool "Symmetric multi-processing support (EXPERIMENTAL)"
  160. default n
  161. #SMP_BROKEN is for x86_64.
  162. depends on MODE_TT && EXPERIMENTAL && (!SMP_BROKEN || (BROKEN && SMP_BROKEN))
  163. help
  164. This option enables UML SMP support.
  165. It is NOT related to having a real SMP box. Not directly, at least.
  166. UML implements virtual SMP by allowing as many processes to run
  167. simultaneously on the host as there are virtual processors configured.
  168. Obviously, if the host is a uniprocessor, those processes will
  169. timeshare, but, inside UML, will appear to be running simultaneously.
  170. If the host is a multiprocessor, then UML processes may run
  171. simultaneously, depending on the host scheduler.
  172. This, however, is supported only in TT mode. So, if you use the SKAS
  173. patch on your host, switching to TT mode and enabling SMP usually gives
  174. you worse performances.
  175. Also, since the support for SMP has been under-developed, there could
  176. be some bugs being exposed by enabling SMP.
  177. If you don't know what to do, say N.
  178. config NR_CPUS

  185. default "0"
  186. help
  187. This is set to the number of layers of UMLs that this UML will be run
  188. in. Normally, this is zero, meaning that it will run directly on the
  189. host. Setting it to one will build a UML that can run inside a UML
  190. that is running on the host. Generally, if you intend this UML to run
  191. inside another UML, set CONFIG_NEST_LEVEL to one more than the host
  192. UML.
  193. Note that if the hosting UML has its CONFIG_KERNEL_HALF_GIGS set to
  194. greater than one, then the guest UML should have its CONFIG_NEST_LEVEL
  195. set to the host's CONFIG_NEST_LEVEL + CONFIG_KERNEL_HALF_GIGS.
  196. Only change this if you are running nested UMLs.
  197. config HIGHMEM
  198. bool "Highmem support (EXPERIMENTAL)"
  199. depends on !64BIT && EXPERIMENTAL
  200. default n
  201. help
  202. This was used to allow UML to run with big amounts of memory.
  203. Currently it is unstable, so if unsure say N.
  204. To use big amounts of memory, it is recommended to disable TT mode (i.e.
  205. CONFIG_MODE_TT) and enable static linking (i.e. CONFIG_STATIC_LINK) -
  206. this should allow the guest to use up to 2.75G of memory.
  207. config KERNEL_STACK_ORDER
  208. int "Kernel stack size order"
  209. default 2
  210. help
  211. This option determines the size of UML kernel stacks. They will
  212. be 1 << order pages. The default is OK unless you're running Valgrind
  213. on UML, in which case, set this to 3.
  214. config UML_REAL_TIME_CLOCK
  215. bool "Real-time Clock"
  216. default y
  217. help
  218. This option makes UML time deltas match wall clock deltas. This should
  219. normally be enabled. The exception would be if you are debugging with
  220. UML and spend long times with UML stopped at a breakpoint. In this
  221. case, when UML is restarted, it will call the timer enough times to make
  222. up for the time spent at the breakpoint. This could result in a
  223. noticable lag. If this is a problem, then disable this option.
