223 will run faster if you say N here.
225 Note that if you say Y here and choose architecture "586" or
226 "Pentium" under "Processor family", the kernel will not work on 486
227 architectures. Similarly, multiprocessor kernels for the "PPro"
228 architecture may not work on all Pentium based boards.

480 HPET is the next generation timer replacing legacy 8254s.
481 The HPET provides a stable time base on SMP
482 systems, unlike the TSC, but it is more expensive to access,
483 as it is off-chip. You can find the HPET spec at

486 You can safely choose Y here. However, HPET will only be
487 activated if the platform and the BIOS support this feature.

512 depends on X86_64 && PCI
514 Support for full DMA access of devices with 32bit memory access only
515 on systems with more than 3GB. This is usually needed for USB,
516 sound, many IDE/SATA chipsets and some other devices.
517 Provides a driver for the AMD Athlon64/Opteron/Turion/Sempron GART
518 based hardware IOMMU and a software bounce buffer based IOMMU used
519 on Intel systems and as fallback.

527 depends on X86_64 && PCI && EXPERIMENTAL
529 Support for hardware IOMMUs in IBM's xSeries x366 and x460
530 systems. Needed to run systems with more than 3GB of memory
531 properly with 32-bit PCI devices that do not support DAC
532 (Double Address Cycle). Calgary also supports bus level
533 isolation, where all DMAs pass through the IOMMU. This
534 prevents them from going anywhere except their intended
535 destination. This catches hard-to-find kernel bugs and
536 mis-behaving drivers and devices that do not use the DMA-API
537 properly to set up their DMA buffers. The IOMMU can be
538 turned off at boot time with the iommu=off parameter.
539 Normally the kernel will make the right choice by itself.

550 Calgary anyway, pass 'iommu=calgary' on the kernel command line.
554 bool "AMD IOMMU support"
556 depends on X86_64 && PCI && ACPI
558 With this option you can enable support for AMD IOMMU hardware in
559 your system. An IOMMU is a hardware component which provides
560 remapping of DMA memory accesses from devices. With an AMD IOMMU you
561 can isolate the the DMA memory of different devices and protect the
562 system from misbehaving device drivers or hardware.
564 You can find out if your system has an AMD IOMMU if you look into
565 your BIOS for an option to enable it or if you have an IVRS ACPI
568 # need this always selected by IOMMU for the VIA workaround
572 Support for software bounce buffers used on x86-64 systems
573 which don't have a hardware IOMMU (e.g. the current generation
574 of Intel's x86-64 CPUs). Using this PCI devices which can only
575 access 32-bits of memory can be used on systems with more than
576 3 GB of memory. If unsure, say Y.

665 Machine Check Exception support allows the processor to notify the
666 kernel if it detects a problem (e.g. overheating, component failure).
667 The action the kernel takes depends on the severity of the problem,
668 ranging from a warning message on the console, to halting the machine.
669 Your processor must be a Pentium or newer to support this - check the
670 flags in /proc/cpuinfo for mce. Note that some older Pentium systems
671 have a design flaw which leads to false MCE events - hence MCE is
672 disabled on all P5 processors, unless explicitly enabled with "mce"
673 as a boot argument. Similarly, if MCE is built in and creates a
674 problem on some new non-standard machine, you can boot with "nomce"
675 to disable it. MCE support simply ignores non-MCE processors like
676 the 386 and 486, so nearly everyone can say Y here.

1062 config MATH_EMULATION
1064 prompt "Math emulation" if X86_32
1066 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
1067 operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
1068 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
1069 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
1070 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
1071 coprocessor or this emulation.
1073 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1074 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1075 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1076 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1077 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1078 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1079 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1080 intend to use this kernel on different machines.
1082 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
1083 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.
1085 If you are not sure, say Y; apart from resulting in a 66 KB bigger
1086 kernel, it won't hurt.
1089 bool "MTRR (Memory Type Range Register) support"
1091 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1092 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1093 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1094 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1095 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1096 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1097 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1098 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1099 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1101 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1102 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1105 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1106 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1107 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1108 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1109 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1110 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1111 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1113 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1114 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1115 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1117 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1118 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1196 This kernel feature is useful for number crunching applications
1197 that may need to compute untrusted bytecode during their

1199 the process as file descriptors supporting the read/write
1200 syscalls, it's possible to isolate those applications in
1201 their own address space using seccomp. Once seccomp is
1202 enabled via /proc/<pid>/seccomp, it cannot be disabled
1203 and the task is only allowed to execute a few safe syscalls
1204 defined by each seccomp mode.

1212 This option turns on the -fstack-protector GCC feature. This
1213 feature puts, at the beginning of critical functions, a canary
1214 value on the stack just before the return address, and validates
1215 the value just before actually returning. Stack based buffer
1216 overflows (that need to overwrite this return address) now also
1217 overwrite the canary, which gets detected and the attack is then
1218 neutralized via a kernel panic.
1220 This feature requires gcc version 4.2 or above, or a distribution
1221 gcc with the feature backported. Older versions are automatically
1222 detected and for those versions, this configuration option is ignored.

1235 bool "kexec system call"

1238 kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your
1239 current kernel, and to start another kernel. It is like a reboot
1240 but it is independent of the system firmware. And like a reboot
1241 you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.
1243 The name comes from the similarity to the exec system call.
1245 It is an ongoing process to be certain the hardware in a machine
1246 is properly shutdown, so do not be surprised if this code does not
1247 initially work for you. It may help to enable device hotplugging
1248 support. As of this writing the exact hardware interface is
1249 strongly in flux, so no good recommendation can be made.

1257 which are loaded in the main kernel with kexec-tools into
1258 a specially reserved region and then later executed after
1259 a crash by kdump/kexec. The crash dump kernel must be compiled
1260 to a memory address not used by the main kernel or BIOS using
1261 PHYSICAL_START, or it must be built as a relocatable image
1262 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y).

1279 This gives the physical address where the kernel is loaded.
1281 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
1282 bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and
1283 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
1284 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1287 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1288 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1289 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1290 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1291 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1292 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1293 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1294 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
1296 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump, leave
1297 the value here unchanged to 0x100000 and set CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.
1298 Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux for capturing the crash dump
1299 change this value to start of the reserved region (Typically 16MB
1300 0x1000000). In other words, it can be set based on the "X" value as
1301 specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM" command line boot parameter
1302 passed to the panic-ed kernel. Typically this parameter is set as
1303 crashkernel=64M@16M. Please take a look at
1304 Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt for more details about crash dumps.
1306 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1307 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1308 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1309 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1310 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1311 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
1314 Don't change this unless you know what you are doing.
1317 bool "Build a relocatable kernel (EXPERIMENTAL)"
1318 depends on EXPERIMENTAL
1320 This builds a kernel image that retains relocation information
1321 so it can be loaded someplace besides the default 1MB.
1322 The relocations tend to make the kernel binary about 10% larger,
1323 but are discarded at runtime.
1325 One use is for the kexec on panic case where the recovery kernel
1326 must live at a different physical address than the primary
1329 Note: If CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y, then the kernel runs from the address
1330 it has been loaded at and the compile time physical address

1338 range 0x2000 0x400000
1340 This value puts the alignment restrictions on physical address
1341 where kernel is loaded and run from. Kernel is compiled for an
1342 address which meets above alignment restriction.
1344 If bootloader loads the kernel at a non-aligned address and
1345 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is set, kernel will move itself to nearest
1346 address aligned to above value and run from there.
1348 If bootloader loads the kernel at a non-aligned address and
1349 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is not set, kernel will ignore the run time
1350 load address and decompress itself to the address it has been
1351 compiled for and run from there. The address for which kernel is
1352 compiled already meets above alignment restrictions. Hence the
1353 end result is that kernel runs from a physical address meeting
1354 above alignment restrictions.

1411 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
1412 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
1413 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
1414 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
1415 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
1416 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
1418 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
1419 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
1421 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
1422 machines with more than one CPU.
1424 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
1425 and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/pm.txt> and the
1426 Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
1427 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
1429 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
1430 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
1431 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
1433 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
1434 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
1435 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
1436 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
1438 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
1439 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get

1483 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
1484 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
1485 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
1486 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
1487 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn

1495 Enable calls to APM CPU Idle/CPU Busy inside the kernel's idle loop.
1496 On some machines, this can activate improved power savings, such as
1497 a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
1498 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,

1510 when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
1511 do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
1512 option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your
1513 backlight at all, or it might print a lot of errors to the console,
1514 especially if you are using gpm.
1516 config APM_ALLOW_INTS
1517 bool "Allow interrupts during APM BIOS calls"
1519 Normally we disable external interrupts while we are making calls to
1520 the APM BIOS as a measure to lessen the effects of a badly behaving
1521 BIOS implementation. The BIOS should reenable interrupts if it
1522 needs to. Unfortunately, some BIOSes do not -- especially those in
1523 many of the newer IBM Thinkpads. If you experience hangs when you
1524 suspend, try setting this to Y. Otherwise, say N.
1526 config APM_REAL_MODE_POWER_OFF
1527 bool "Use real mode APM BIOS call to power off"
1529 Use real mode APM BIOS calls to switch off the computer. This is
1530 a work-around for a number of buggy BIOSes. Switch this option on if
1531 your computer crashes instead of powering off properly.

1555 prompt "PCI access mode"
1556 depends on X86_32 && PCI
1559 On PCI systems, the BIOS can be used to detect the PCI devices and
1560 determine their configuration. However, some old PCI motherboards
1561 have BIOS bugs and may crash if this is done. Also, some embedded
1562 PCI-based systems don't have any BIOS at all. Linux can also try to
1563 detect the PCI hardware directly without using the BIOS.
1565 With this option, you can specify how Linux should detect the
1566 PCI devices. If you choose "BIOS", the BIOS will be used,
1567 if you choose "Direct", the BIOS won't be used, and if you
1568 choose "MMConfig", then PCI Express MMCONFIG will be used.
1569 If you choose "Any", the kernel will try MMCONFIG, then the
1570 direct access method and falls back to the BIOS if that doesn't
1571 work. If unsure, go with the default, which is "Any".

1622 These DMA remapping devices are reported via ACPI tables
1623 and include PCI device scope covered by these DMA
1628 prompt "Support for Graphics workaround"
1631 Current Graphics drivers tend to use physical address
1632 for DMA and avoid using DMA APIs. Setting this config
1633 option permits the IOMMU driver to set a unity map for
1634 all the OS-visible memory. Hence the driver can continue
1635 to use physical addresses for DMA.
1637 config DMAR_FLOPPY_WA
1641 Floppy disk drivers are know to bypass DMA API calls
1642 thereby failing to work when IOMMU is enabled. This
1643 workaround will setup a 1:1 mapping for the first

1660 Find out whether you have ISA slots on your motherboard. ISA is the
1661 name of a bus system, i.e. the way the CPU talks to the other stuff
1662 inside your box. Other bus systems are PCI, EISA, MicroChannel
1663 (MCA) or VESA. ISA is an older system, now being displaced by PCI;
1664 newer boards don't support it. If you have ISA, say Y, otherwise N.
1670 The Extended Industry Standard Architecture (EISA) bus was
1671 developed as an open alternative to the IBM MicroChannel bus.
1673 The EISA bus provided some of the features of the IBM MicroChannel
1674 bus while maintaining backward compatibility with cards made for
1675 the older ISA bus. The EISA bus saw limited use between 1988 and
1676 1995 when it was made obsolete by the PCI bus.

1699 This provides basic support for National Semiconductor's

1701 PCI-IDs of several on-chip devices, so its a good dependency
1702 for other scx200_* drivers.

1712 27MHz high-resolution timer. Its also a workaround for
1713 NSC Geode SC-1100's buggy TSC, which loses time when the
1714 processor goes idle (as is done by the scheduler). The
1715 other workaround is idle=poll boot option.

1723 timer(s) in the CS5535 and CS5536 companion chip for the geode.
1724 MFGPTs have a better resolution and max interval than the
1725 generic PIT, and are suitable for use as high-res timers.
