  37. This option controls whether tracing thread support is compiled

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

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

  71. of physical memory.

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

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

  108. help
  109. While the User-Mode Linux port uses its own root file system for
  110. booting and normal file access, this module lets the UML user
  111. access files stored on the host. It does not require any
  112. network connection between the Host and UML. An example use of
  113. this might be:
  114. mount none /tmp/fromhost -t hostfs -o /tmp/umlshare
  115. where /tmp/fromhost is an empty directory inside UML and
  116. /tmp/umlshare is a directory on the host with files the UML user
  117. wishes to access.
  118. For more information, see
  119. <http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/hostfs.html>.
  120. If you'd like to be able to work with files stored on the host,
  121. say Y or M here; otherwise say N.
  122. config HPPFS
  123. tristate "HoneyPot ProcFS (EXPERIMENTAL)"
  124. help
  125. hppfs (HoneyPot ProcFS) is a filesystem which allows UML /proc
  126. entries to be overridden, removed, or fabricated from the host.
  127. Its purpose is to allow a UML to appear to be a physical machine
  128. by removing or changing anything in /proc which gives away the
  129. identity of a UML.
  130. See <http://user-mode-linux.sf.net/hppfs.html> for more information.
  131. You only need this if you are setting up a UML honeypot. Otherwise,
  132. it is safe to say 'N' here.
  133. If you are actively using it, please report any problems, since it's
  134. getting fixed. In this moment, it is experimental on 2.6 (it works on
  135. 2.4).
  136. config MCONSOLE
  137. bool "Management console"
  138. default y
  139. help
  140. The user mode linux management console is a low-level interface to
  141. the kernel, somewhat like the i386 SysRq interface. Since there is
  142. a full-blown operating system running under every user mode linux
  143. instance, there is much greater flexibility possible than with the
  144. SysRq mechanism.
  145. If you answer 'Y' to this option, to use this feature, you need the
  146. mconsole client (called uml_mconsole) which is present in CVS in
  147. 2.4.5-9um and later (path /tools/mconsole), and is also in the
  148. distribution RPM package in 2.4.6 and later.
  149. It is safe to say 'Y' here.
  150. config MAGIC_SYSRQ
  151. bool "Magic SysRq key"
  152. depends on MCONSOLE
  153. ---help---
  154. If you say Y here, you will have some control over the system even
  155. if the system crashes for example during kernel debugging (e.g., you
  156. will be able to flush the buffer cache to disk, reboot the system
  157. immediately or dump some status information). A key for each of the
  158. possible requests is provided.
  159. This is the feature normally accomplished by pressing a key
  160. while holding SysRq (Alt+PrintScreen).
  161. On UML, this is accomplished by sending a "sysrq" command with
  162. mconsole, followed by the letter for the requested command.
  163. The keys are documented in <file:Documentation/sysrq.txt>. Don't say Y
  164. unless you really know what this hack does.
  165. config SMP
  166. bool "Symmetric multi-processing support (EXPERIMENTAL)"
  167. default n
  168. depends on (MODE_TT && EXPERIMENTAL && !SMP_BROKEN) || (BROKEN && SMP_BROKEN)
  169. help
  170. This option enables UML SMP support.
  171. It is NOT related to having a real SMP box. Not directly, at least.
  172. UML implements virtual SMP by allowing as many processes to run
  173. simultaneously on the host as there are virtual processors configured.
  174. Obviously, if the host is a uniprocessor, those processes will
  175. timeshare, but, inside UML, will appear to be running simultaneously.
  176. If the host is a multiprocessor, then UML processes may run
  177. simultaneously, depending on the host scheduler.
  178. This, however, is supported only in TT mode. So, if you use the SKAS
  179. patch on your host, switching to TT mode and enabling SMP usually gives
  180. you worse performances.
  181. Also, since the support for SMP has been under-developed, there could
  182. be some bugs being exposed by enabling SMP.
  183. If you don't know what to do, say N.
  184. config NR_CPUS

  189. config NEST_LEVEL
  190. int "Nesting level"
  191. default "0"
  192. help
  193. This is set to the number of layers of UMLs that this UML will be run
  194. in. Normally, this is zero, meaning that it will run directly on the
  195. host. Setting it to one will build a UML that can run inside a UML
  196. that is running on the host. Generally, if you intend this UML to run
  197. inside another UML, set CONFIG_NEST_LEVEL to one more than the host
  198. UML.
  199. Note that if the hosting UML has its CONFIG_KERNEL_HALF_GIGS set to
  200. greater than one, then the guest UML should have its CONFIG_NEST_LEVEL
  201. set to the host's CONFIG_NEST_LEVEL + CONFIG_KERNEL_HALF_GIGS.
  202. Only change this if you are running nested UMLs.
  203. config HIGHMEM

  206. config KERNEL_STACK_ORDER
  207. int "Kernel stack size order"
  208. default 2
  209. help
  210. This option determines the size of UML kernel stacks. They will
  211. be 1 << order pages. The default is OK unless you're running Valgrind
  212. on UML, in which case, set this to 3.
  213. config UML_REAL_TIME_CLOCK
  214. bool "Real-time Clock"
  215. default y
  216. help
  217. This option makes UML time deltas match wall clock deltas. This should
  218. normally be enabled. The exception would be if you are debugging with
  219. UML and spend long times with UML stopped at a breakpoint. In this
  220. case, when UML is restarted, it will call the timer enough times to make
  221. up for the time spent at the breakpoint. This could result in a
  222. noticable lag. If this is a problem, then disable this option.
