  37. This option controls whether tracing thread support is compiled

  39. use only skas mode (and the host has the skas patch applied to it),
  40. then it is OK to say N here.

  45. help
  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.

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

  72. help
  73. Unless you really know what you are doing, you should say Y here.
  74. The reason is that some programs need kernel networking support even
  75. when running on a stand-alone machine that isn't connected to any
  76. other computer. If you are upgrading from an older kernel, you
  77. should consider updating your networking tools too because changes
  78. in the kernel and the tools often go hand in hand. The tools are
  79. contained in the package net-tools, the location and version number
  80. of which are given in <file:Documentation/Changes>.
  81. For a general introduction to Linux networking, it is highly
  82. recommended to read the NET-HOWTO, available from
  83. <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.

  85. config HOSTFS
  86. tristate "Host filesystem"
  87. help
  88. While the User-Mode Linux port uses its own root file system for
  89. booting and normal file access, this module lets the UML user
  90. access files stored on the host. It does not require any
  91. network connection between the Host and UML. An example use of
  92. this might be:
  93. mount none /tmp/fromhost -t hostfs -o /tmp/umlshare
  94. where /tmp/fromhost is an empty directory inside UML and
  95. /tmp/umlshare is a directory on the host with files the UML user
  96. wishes to access.
  97. For more information, see
  98. <http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/hostfs.html>.
  99. If you'd like to be able to work with files stored on the host,
  100. say Y or M here; otherwise say N.
  101. config HPPFS
  102. tristate "HoneyPot ProcFS (EXPERIMENTAL)"
  103. depends on BROKEN
  104. help
  105. hppfs (HoneyPot ProcFS) is a filesystem which allows UML /proc
  106. entries to be overridden, removed, or fabricated from the host.
  107. Its purpose is to allow a UML to appear to be a physical machine
  108. by removing or changing anything in /proc which gives away the
  109. identity of a UML.
  110. See <http://user-mode-linux.sf.net/hppfs.html> for more information.
  111. You only need this if you are setting up a UML honeypot. Otherwise,
  112. it is safe to say 'N' here.
  113. If you are actively using it, please ask for it to be fixed. In this
  114. moment, it does not work on 2.6 (it works somehow on 2.4).
  115. config MCONSOLE
  116. bool "Management console"
  117. default y
  118. help
  119. The user mode linux management console is a low-level interface to
  120. the kernel, somewhat like the i386 SysRq interface. Since there is
  121. a full-blown operating system running under every user mode linux
  122. instance, there is much greater flexibility possible than with the
  123. SysRq mechanism.
  124. If you answer 'Y' to this option, to use this feature, you need the
  125. mconsole client (called uml_mconsole) which is present in CVS in
  126. 2.4.5-9um and later (path /tools/mconsole), and is also in the
  127. distribution RPM package in 2.4.6 and later.
  128. It is safe to say 'Y' here.
  129. config MAGIC_SYSRQ
  130. bool "Magic SysRq key"
  131. depends on MCONSOLE
  132. ---help---
  133. If you say Y here, you will have some control over the system even
  134. if the system crashes for example during kernel debugging (e.g., you
  135. will be able to flush the buffer cache to disk, reboot the system
  136. immediately or dump some status information). A key for each of the
  137. possible requests is provided.
  138. This is the feature normally accomplished by pressing a key
  139. while holding SysRq (Alt+PrintScreen).
  140. On UML, this is accomplished by sending a "sysrq" command with
  141. mconsole, followed by the letter for the requested command.
  142. The keys are documented in <file:Documentation/sysrq.txt>. Don't say Y
  143. unless you really know what this hack does.
  144. config HOST_2G_2G
  145. bool "2G/2G host address space split"
  146. default n
  147. help
  148. This is needed when the host on which you run has a 2G/2G memory
  149. split, instead of the customary 3G/1G.
  150. Note that to enable such a host
  151. configuration, which makes sense only in some cases, you need special
  152. host patches.
  153. So, if you do not know what to do here, say 'N'.
  154. config SMP
  155. bool "Symmetric multi-processing support (EXPERIMENTAL)"
  156. default n
  157. depends on MODE_TT && EXPERIMENTAL
  158. help
  159. This option enables UML SMP support.
  160. It is NOT related to having a real SMP box. Not directly, at least.
  161. UML implements virtual SMP by allowing as many processes to run
  162. simultaneously on the host as there are virtual processors configured.
  163. Obviously, if the host is a uniprocessor, those processes will
  164. timeshare, but, inside UML, will appear to be running simultaneously.
  165. If the host is a multiprocessor, then UML processes may run
  166. simultaneously, depending on the host scheduler.
  167. This, however, is supported only in TT mode. So, if you use the SKAS
  168. patch on your host, switching to TT mode and enabling SMP usually gives
  169. you worse performances.
  170. Also, since the support for SMP has been under-developed, there could
  171. be some bugs being exposed by enabling SMP.
  172. If you don't know what to do, say N.

  180. default "0"
  181. help
  182. This is set to the number of layers of UMLs that this UML will be run
  183. in. Normally, this is zero, meaning that it will run directly on the
  184. host. Setting it to one will build a UML that can run inside a UML
  185. that is running on the host. Generally, if you intend this UML to run
  186. inside another UML, set CONFIG_NEST_LEVEL to one more than the host
  187. UML.
  188. Note that if the hosting UML has its CONFIG_KERNEL_HALF_GIGS set to
  189. greater than one, then the guest UML should have its CONFIG_NEST_LEVEL
  190. set to the host's CONFIG_NEST_LEVEL + CONFIG_KERNEL_HALF_GIGS.
  191. Only change this if you are running nested UMLs.
  192. config KERNEL_HALF_GIGS
  193. int "Kernel address space size (in .5G units)"
  194. default "1"
  195. help
  196. This determines the amount of address space that UML will allocate for
  197. its own, measured in half Gigabyte units. The default is 1.
  198. Change this only if you need to boot UML with an unusually large amount
  199. of physical memory.

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