  1084. Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
  1085. operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
  1086. a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
  1087. a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
  1088. give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
  1089. coprocessor or this emulation.
  1090. If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
  1091. say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
  1092. be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
  1093. command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
  1094. is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
  1095. loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
  1096. boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
  1097. intend to use this kernel on different machines.
  1098. More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
  1099. emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.

  1104. ---help---
  1105. On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
  1106. the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
  1107. processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
  1108. a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
  1109. allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
  1110. before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
  1111. of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
  1112. /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
  1113. MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
  1114. This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
  1115. control registers on other processors can be easily supported
  1116. as well:
  1117. The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
  1118. Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
  1119. these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
  1120. The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
  1121. MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
  1122. write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
  1123. and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
  1124. Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
  1125. set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
  1126. can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
  1127. You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
  1128. just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

  1216. but it is independent of the system firmware. And like a reboot
  1217. you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.
  1218. The name comes from the similarity to the exec system call.
  1219. It is an ongoing process to be certain the hardware in a machine
  1220. is properly shutdown, so do not be surprised if this code does not

  1233. to a memory address not used by the main kernel or BIOS using
  1234. PHYSICAL_START, or it must be built as a relocatable image

  1248. This gives the physical address where the kernel is loaded.
  1249. If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
  1250. bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and
  1251. run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
  1252. it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
  1253. address.
  1254. In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
  1255. as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
  1256. (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
  1257. address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
  1258. to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
  1259. vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
  1260. to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
  1261. (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
  1262. So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump,
  1263. leave the value here unchanged to 0x1000000 and set
  1264. CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux
  1265. for capturing the crash dump change this value to start of
  1266. the reserved region. In other words, it can be set based on
  1267. the "X" value as specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM"
  1268. command line boot parameter passed to the panic-ed
  1269. kernel. Please take a look at Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt
  1270. for more details about crash dumps.
  1271. Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
  1272. one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
  1273. as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
  1274. gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
  1275. is present because there are users out there who continue to use
  1276. vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
  1277. line.
  1278. Don't change this unless you know what you are doing.

  1309. If bootloader loads the kernel at a non-aligned address and

  1401. APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
  1402. reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
  1403. battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
  1404. notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
  1405. If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
  1406. BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
  1407. Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
  1408. machines with more than one CPU.
  1409. In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
  1410. and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/pm.txt> and the
  1411. Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
  1412. <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
  1413. This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
  1414. manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
  1415. VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
  1416. This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
  1417. 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
  1418. desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
  1419. may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
  1420. Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
  1421. much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
  1422. random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
  1423. anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
  1424. APM in your BIOS).
  1425. Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
  1426. "weird" problems:
  1427. 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
  1428. enabled.
  1429. 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
  1430. 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
  1431. the "no387" option to the kernel
  1432. 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
  1433. 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
  1434. all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
  1435. 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
  1436. 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
  1437. 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
  1438. 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
  1439. 10) install a better fan for the CPU
  1440. 11) exchange RAM chips
  1441. 12) exchange the motherboard.
  1442. To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
  1443. module will be called apm.

  1445. config APM_IGNORE_USER_SUSPEND
  1446. bool "Ignore USER SUSPEND"
  1447. ---help---
  1448. This option will ignore USER SUSPEND requests. On machines with a
  1449. compliant APM BIOS, you want to say N. However, on the NEC Versa M
  1450. series notebooks, it is necessary to say Y because of a BIOS bug.
  1451. config APM_DO_ENABLE
  1452. bool "Enable PM at boot time"
  1453. ---help---
  1454. Enable APM features at boot time. From page 36 of the APM BIOS
  1455. specification: "When disabled, the APM BIOS does not automatically
  1456. power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend
  1457. State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
  1458. This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
  1459. feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
  1460. should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
  1461. will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
  1462. this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
  1463. support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
  1464. this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba
  1465. T400CDT. This is off by default since most machines do fine without
  1466. this feature.
  1467. config APM_CPU_IDLE
  1468. bool "Make CPU Idle calls when idle"
  1469. ---help---
  1470. Enable calls to APM CPU Idle/CPU Busy inside the kernel's idle loop.
  1471. On some machines, this can activate improved power savings, such as
  1472. a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
  1473. are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,
  1474. 333 mS). On some machines, this will cause a hang at boot time or
  1475. whenever the CPU becomes idle. (On machines with more than one CPU,
  1476. this option does nothing.)
  1477. config APM_DISPLAY_BLANK
  1478. bool "Enable console blanking using APM"
  1479. ---help---
  1480. Enable console blanking using the APM. Some laptops can use this to
  1481. turn off the LCD backlight when the screen blanker of the Linux
  1482. virtual console blanks the screen. Note that this is only used by
  1483. the virtual console screen blanker, and won't turn off the backlight
  1484. when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
  1485. do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
  1486. option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your
  1487. backlight at all, or it might print a lot of errors to the console,
  1488. especially if you are using gpm.
  1489. config APM_ALLOW_INTS
  1490. bool "Allow interrupts during APM BIOS calls"
  1491. ---help---
  1492. Normally we disable external interrupts while we are making calls to
  1493. the APM BIOS as a measure to lessen the effects of a badly behaving
  1494. BIOS implementation. The BIOS should reenable interrupts if it
  1495. needs to. Unfortunately, some BIOSes do not -- especially those in
  1496. many of the newer IBM Thinkpads. If you experience hangs when you
  1497. suspend, try setting this to Y. Otherwise, say N.
