  32. This option controls whether tracing thread support is compiled

  34. skas security and performance without needing to patch the host.
  35. It is safe to say 'N' here.

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

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

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

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

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

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