1114 boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps
1115 the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot
1116 IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the
1117 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this
1118 way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise
1119 the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring

1185 This option allows user programs to put the CPU into V8086
1186 mode, which is an 80286-era approximation of 16-bit real mode.
1187
1188 Some very old versions of X and/or vbetool require this option
1189 for user mode setting. Similarly, DOSEMU will use it if
1190 available to accelerate real mode DOS programs. However, any
1191 recent version of DOSEMU, X, or vbetool should be fully
1192 functional even without kernel VM86 support, as they will all
1193 fall back to software emulation. Nevertheless, if you are using
1194 a 16-bit DOS program where 16-bit performance matters, vm86
1195 mode might be faster than emulation and you might want to
1196 enable this option.
1197
1198 Note that any app that works on a 64-bit kernel is unlikely to
1199 need this option, as 64-bit kernels don't, and can't, support
1200 V8086 mode. This option is also unrelated to 16-bit protected
1201 mode and is not needed to run most 16-bit programs under Wine.

1375 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
1376 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
1377 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
1378 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
1379 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
1380 "high memory".
1381
1382 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
1383 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
1384 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
1385 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
1386 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
1387 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
1388 possible.
1389
1390 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
1391 answer "4GB" here.
1392
1393 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
1394 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
1395 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully

1397 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
1398 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
1399
1400 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be
1401 auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option

1707 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
1708 operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
1709 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
1710 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
1711 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
1712 coprocessor or this emulation.
1713
1714 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1715 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1716 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1717 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1718 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1719 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1720 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1721 intend to use this kernel on different machines.
1722
1723 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
1724 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.

1731 prompt "MTRR (Memory Type Range Register) support" if EXPERT
1732 help
1733 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1734 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1735 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1736 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1737 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1738 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1739 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1740 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1741 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1742
1743 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1744 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1745 as well:
1746
1747 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1748 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1749 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1750 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1751 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1752 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1753 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1754
1755 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1756 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1757 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1758
1759 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1760 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

2107 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as

2547 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide

2552 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
2553
2554 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
2555 machines with more than one CPU.
2556
2557 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
2558 and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/apm-acpi.rst>

2565
2566 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
2567 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
2568 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver

2573 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
2574 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
2575 APM in your BIOS).

2578 "weird" problems:

2581 enabled.
2582 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
2583 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
2584 the "no387" option to the kernel
2585 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
2586 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
2587 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
2588 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
2589 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
2590 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
2591 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM

2752 Expose ISA bus device drivers and options available for selection and
2753 configuration. Enable this option if your target machine has an ISA
2754 bus. ISA is an older system, displaced by PCI and newer bus
2755 architectures -- if your target machine is modern, it probably does
2756 not have an ISA bus.

2773 Find out whether you have ISA slots on your motherboard. ISA is the
2774 name of a bus system, i.e. the way the CPU talks to the other stuff
2775 inside your box. Other bus systems are PCI, EISA, MicroChannel
2776 (MCA) or VESA. ISA is an older system, now being displaced by PCI;
2777 newer boards don't support it. If you have ISA, say Y, otherwise N.

2781 help
2782 This provides basic support for National Semiconductor's
2783 (now AMD's) Geode processors. The driver probes for the
2784 PCI-IDs of several on-chip devices, so its a good dependency
2785 for other scx200_* drivers.
2786
2787 If compiled as a module, the driver is named scx200.

2794 This driver provides a clocksource built upon the on-chip
2795 27MHz high-resolution timer. Its also a workaround for
2796 NSC Geode SC-1100's buggy TSC, which loses time when the
2797 processor goes idle (as is done by the scheduler). The
2798 other workaround is idle=poll boot option.

2858 Note: You must still enable the drivers for GPIO and LED support
2859 (GPIO_CS5535 & LEDS_GPIO) to actually use the LEDs
