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

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

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

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

  101. help
  102. While the User-Mode Linux port uses its own root file system for
  103. booting and normal file access, this module lets the UML user
  104. access files stored on the host. It does not require any
  105. network connection between the Host and UML. An example use of
  106. this might be:
  107. mount none /tmp/fromhost -t hostfs -o /tmp/umlshare
  108. where /tmp/fromhost is an empty directory inside UML and
  109. /tmp/umlshare is a directory on the host with files the UML user
  110. wishes to access.
  111. For more information, see
  112. <http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/hostfs.html>.
  113. If you'd like to be able to work with files stored on the host,
  114. say Y or M here; otherwise say N.

  118. help
  119. hppfs (HoneyPot ProcFS) is a filesystem which allows UML /proc
  120. entries to be overridden, removed, or fabricated from the host.
  121. Its purpose is to allow a UML to appear to be a physical machine
  122. by removing or changing anything in /proc which gives away the
  123. identity of a UML.
  124. See <http://user-mode-linux.sf.net/hppfs.html> for more information.
  125. You only need this if you are setting up a UML honeypot. Otherwise,
  126. it is safe to say 'N' here.
  127. config MCONSOLE
  128. bool "Management console"
  129. default y
  130. help
  131. The user mode linux management console is a low-level interface to
  132. the kernel, somewhat like the i386 SysRq interface. Since there is
  133. a full-blown operating system running under every user mode linux
  134. instance, there is much greater flexibility possible than with the
  135. SysRq mechanism.
  136. If you answer 'Y' to this option, to use this feature, you need the
  137. mconsole client (called uml_mconsole) which is present in CVS in
  138. 2.4.5-9um and later (path /tools/mconsole), and is also in the
  139. distribution RPM package in 2.4.6 and later.
  140. It is safe to say 'Y' here.
  141. config MAGIC_SYSRQ
  142. bool "Magic SysRq key"
  143. depends on MCONSOLE
  144. ---help---
  145. If you say Y here, you will have some control over the system even
  146. if the system crashes for example during kernel debugging (e.g., you
  147. will be able to flush the buffer cache to disk, reboot the system
  148. immediately or dump some status information). A key for each of the
  149. possible requests is provided.
  150. This is the feature normally accomplished by pressing a key
  151. while holding SysRq (Alt+PrintScreen).
  152. On UML, this is accomplished by sending a "sysrq" command with
  153. mconsole, followed by the letter for the requested command.
  154. The keys are documented in <file:Documentation/sysrq.txt>. Don't say Y
  155. unless you really know what this hack does.
  156. config SMP
  157. bool "Symmetric multi-processing support (EXPERIMENTAL)"
  158. default n
  159. #SMP_BROKEN is for x86_64.
  160. depends on MODE_TT && EXPERIMENTAL && (!SMP_BROKEN || (BROKEN && SMP_BROKEN))
  161. help
  162. This option enables UML SMP support.
  163. It is NOT related to having a real SMP box. Not directly, at least.
  164. UML implements virtual SMP by allowing as many processes to run
  165. simultaneously on the host as there are virtual processors configured.
  166. Obviously, if the host is a uniprocessor, those processes will
  167. timeshare, but, inside UML, will appear to be running simultaneously.
  168. If the host is a multiprocessor, then UML processes may run
  169. simultaneously, depending on the host scheduler.
  170. This, however, is supported only in TT mode. So, if you use the SKAS
  171. patch on your host, switching to TT mode and enabling SMP usually gives
  172. you worse performances.
  173. Also, since the support for SMP has been under-developed, there could
  174. be some bugs being exposed by enabling SMP.
  175. If you don't know what to do, say N.

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