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

  612. Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
  613. However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
  614. Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
  615. physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
  616. kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
  617. "high memory".
  618. If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
  619. more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
  620. choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
  621. split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
  622. space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
  623. by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
  624. possible.
  625. If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
  626. answer "4GB" here.
  627. If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
  628. selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
  629. PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully
  630. supported by Linux, PAE mode is implemented on all recent Intel
  631. processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
  632. then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
  633. The actual amount of total physical memory will either be
  634. auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option
  635. such as "mem=256M". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of
  636. your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the

  808. coprocessor or this emulation.
  809. If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
  810. say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
  811. be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel

  813. is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
  814. loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
  815. boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
  816. intend to use this kernel on different machines.
  817. More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
  818. emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.

  824. On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
  825. the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
  826. processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
  827. a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
  828. allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
  829. before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
  830. of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
  831. /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
  832. MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
  833. This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
  834. control registers on other processors can be easily supported
  835. as well:
  836. The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
  837. Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
  838. these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
  839. The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
  840. MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
  841. write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
  842. and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
  843. Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
  844. set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
  845. can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
  846. You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll

  1059. APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
  1060. techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
  1061. APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
  1062. reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
  1063. battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
  1064. notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
  1065. If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
  1066. BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
  1067. Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
  1068. machines with more than one CPU.
  1069. In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
  1070. and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/pm.txt> and the
  1071. Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
  1072. <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
  1073. This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
  1074. manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
  1075. VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
  1076. This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
  1077. 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
  1078. desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
  1079. may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
  1080. Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
  1081. much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
  1082. random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
  1083. anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
  1084. APM in your BIOS).
  1085. Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
  1086. "weird" problems:
  1087. 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
  1088. enabled.
  1089. 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
  1090. 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
  1091. the "no387" option to the kernel
  1092. 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
  1093. 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
  1094. all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
  1095. 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
  1096. 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
  1097. 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
  1098. 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
  1099. 10) install a better fan for the CPU
  1100. 11) exchange RAM chips
  1101. 12) exchange the motherboard.

  1103. module will be called apm.

  1117. State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
  1118. This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
  1119. feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
  1120. should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
  1121. will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
  1122. this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
  1123. support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
  1124. this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba
  1125. T400CDT. This is off by default since most machines do fine without
  1126. this feature.

  1132. a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
  1133. are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,
  1134. 333 mS). On some machines, this will cause a hang at boot time or

  1144. when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
  1145. do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
  1146. option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your

  1155. needs to. Unfortunately, some BIOSes do not -- especially those in
