you have a system with more than one CPU, say Y.
|

If you say N here, the kernel will run on single and multiprocessor

machines, but will use only one CPU of a multiprocessor machine. If
|
|
|
|
you say Y here, the kernel will run on many, but not all,

singleprocessor machines. On a singleprocessor machine, the kernel
|
|

will run faster if you say N here.
|
|

Note that if you say Y here and choose architecture "586" or
|
|

"Pentium" under "Processor family", the kernel will not work on 486
|

architectures. Similarly, multiprocessor kernels for the "PPro"
|

architecture may not work on all Pentium based boards.
|
|
|
|
|
|

People using multiprocessor machines who say Y here should also say

Y to "Enhanced Real Time Clock Support", below. The "Advanced Power

Machine Check Exception support allows the processor to notify the

Your processor must be a Pentium or newer to support this - check the

flags in /proc/cpuinfo for mce. Note that some older Pentium systems
|

have a design flaw which leads to false MCE events - hence MCE is

disabled on all P5 processors, unless explicitly enabled with "mce"

problem on some new non-standard machine, you can boot with "nomce"

Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
|
|
|
|
However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
|
|
|
|
Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
|
|
|
|
physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
|
|
|
|
kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
|
|
|
|
"high memory".
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
|
|
|
|
more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
|
|
|
|
choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
|
|
|
|
split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
|
|
|
|
space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
|
|
|
|
by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
|
|
|
|
possible.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
|
|
|
|
answer "4GB" here.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
|
|
|
|
selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
|
|
|
|
PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully
|
|
|
|
supported by Linux, PAE mode is implemented on all recent Intel
|
|
|
|
processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
|
|
|
|
then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!

The actual amount of total physical memory will either be

tighter. Selecting anything other than the default 3G/1G split

has the cost of more pagetable lookup overhead, and also

The VM uses one page table entry for each page of physical memory.

config MATH_EMULATION
|

|

bool "Math emulation"
|
|
|
|
---help---
|
|
|
|
Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
|
|
|
|
operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
|
|
|
|
a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
|
|
|
|
a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
|
|
|
|
give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
|
|
|
|
coprocessor or this emulation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
|
|
|
|
say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
|
|
|
|
be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
|
|
|
|
command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
|
|
|
|
is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
|
|
|
|
loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
|
|
|
|
boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
|
|
|
|
intend to use this kernel on different machines.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor

|
2005-04-16 18:20:36 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you are not sure, say Y; apart from resulting in a 66 KB bigger
|
|
|
|
kernel, it won't hurt.

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

kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your

|
current kernel, and to start another kernel. It is like a reboot
|
2006-06-26 12:47:15 -04:00

|
|
but it is independent of the system firmware. And like a reboot
|
2005-06-25 17:57:56 -04:00
|
|
|
you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.
|
|
|
|
|
2006-06-29 01:32:47 -04:00

is properly shutdown, so do not be surprised if this code does not
|
|
|
|
initially work for you. It may help to enable device hotplugging

support. As of this writing the exact hardware interface is
|
|
|
|
strongly in flux, so no good recommendation can be made.

This gives the physical address where the kernel is loaded.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
|
|
|
|
bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and
|
|
|
|
run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
|
|
|
|
it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
|
|
|
|
address.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
|
|
|
|
as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
|
|
|
|
(CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
|
|
|
|
address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
|
|
|
|
to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
|
|
|
|
vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
|
|
|
|
to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
|
|
|
|
(normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump, leave
|
|
|
|
the value here unchanged to 0x100000 and set CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.
|
|
|
|
Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux for capturing the crash dump
|
|
|
|
change this value to start of the reserved region (Typically 16MB
|
|
|
|
0x1000000). In other words, it can be set based on the "X" value as
|
|
|
|
specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM" command line boot parameter
|
|
|
|
passed to the panic-ed kernel. Typically this parameter is set as
|
|
|
|
crashkernel=64M@16M. Please take a look at
|
|
|
|
Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt for more details about crash dumps.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
|
|
|
|
one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
|
|
|
|
as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
|
|
|
|
gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
|
|
|
|
is present because there are users out there who continue to use
|
|
|
|
vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
|
|
|
|
line.

[PATCH] vdso: randomize the i386 vDSO by moving it into a vma
Move the i386 VDSO down into a vma and thus randomize it.
Besides the security implications, this feature also helps debuggers, which
can COW a vma-backed VDSO just like a normal DSO and can thus do
single-stepping and other debugging features.
It's good for hypervisors (Xen, VMWare) too, which typically live in the same
high-mapped address space as the VDSO, hence whenever the VDSO is used, they
get lots of guest pagefaults and have to fix such guest accesses up - which
slows things down instead of speeding things up (the primary purpose of the
VDSO).
There's a new CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO (default=y) option, which provides support
for older glibcs that still rely on a prelinked high-mapped VDSO. Newer
distributions (using glibc 2.3.3 or later) can turn this option off. Turning
it off is also recommended for security reasons: attackers cannot use the
predictable high-mapped VDSO page as syscall trampoline anymore.
There is a new vdso=[0|1] boot option as well, and a runtime
/proc/sys/vm/vdso_enabled sysctl switch, that allows the VDSO to be turned
on/off.
(This version of the VDSO-randomization patch also has working ELF
coredumping, the previous patch crashed in the coredumping code.)
This code is a combined work of the exec-shield VDSO randomization
code and Gerd Hoffmann's hypervisor-centric VDSO patch. Rusty Russell
started this patch and i completed it.

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

CPUIDLE: handle BM detection inside the ACPI Processor driver
Update the ACPI processor driver to detect BM activity and
limit state entry depth internally, rather than exposing such
requirements to CPUIDLE. As a result, CPUIDLE can drop this
ACPI-specific interface and become more platform independent. BM
activity is now handled much more aggressively than it was in the
original implementation, so some testing coverage may be needed to
verify that this doesn't introduce any DMA buffer under-run issues.

cpuidle: re-write
Some portions have been rewritten to make the code cleaner and lighter
weight. The following is a list of changes:
1.) the state name is now included in the sysfs interface
2.) detection, hotplug, and available state modifications are handled by
CPUIDLE drivers directly
3.) the CPUIDLE idle handler is only ever installed when at least one
cpuidle_device is enabled and ready
4.) the menu governor BM code no longer overflows
5.) the sysfs attributes are now printed as unsigned integers, avoiding
negative values
6.) a variety of other small cleanups
Also, Idle drivers are no longer swappable during runtime through the
CPUIDLE sysfs inteface. On i386 and x86_64 most idle handlers (e.g.
poll, mwait, halt, etc.) don't benefit from an infrastructure that
supports multiple states, so I think using a more general case idle
handler selection mechanism would be cleaner.

cpuidle: add the 'menu' governor
Here is my first take at implementing an idle PM governor that takes
full advantage of NO_HZ. I call it the 'menu' governor because it
considers the full list of idle states before each entry.
I've kept the implementation fairly simple. It attempts to guess the
next residency time and then chooses a state that would meet at least
the break-even point between power savings and entry cost. To this end,
it selects the deepest idle state that satisfies the following
constraints:
1. If the idle time elapsed since bus master activity was detected
is below a threshold (currently 20 ms), then limit the selection
to C2-type or above.
2. Do not choose a state with a break-even residency that exceeds
the expected time remaining until the next timer interrupt.
3. Do not choose a state with a break-even residency that exceeds
the elapsed time between the last pair of break events,
excluding timer interrupts.
This governor has an advantage over "ladder" governor because it
proactively checks how much time remains until the next timer interrupt
using the tick infrastructure. Also, it handles device interrupt
activity more intelligently by not including timer interrupts in break
event calculations. Finally, it doesn't make policy decisions using the
number of state entries, which can have variable residency times (NO_HZ
makes these potentially very large), and instead only considers sleep
time deltas.
The menu governor can be selected during runtime using the cpuidle sysfs
interface like so:
"echo "menu" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuidle/current_governor"

cpuidle: export time until next timer interrupt using NO_HZ
Expose information about the time remaining until the next
timer interrupt expires by utilizing the dynticks infrastructure.
Also modify the main idle loop to allow dynticks to handle
non-interrupt break events (e.g. DMA). Finally, expose sleep ticks
information to external code. Thomas Gleixner is responsible for much
of the code in this patch. However, I've made some additional changes,
so I'm probably responsible if there are any bugs or oversights :)

cpuidle: hang fix
Prevent hang on x86-64, when ACPI processor driver is added as a module on
a system that does not support C-states.
x86-64 expects all idle handlers to enable interrupts before returning from
idle handler. This is due to enter_idle(), exit_idle() races. Make
cpuidle_idle_call() confirm to this when there is no pm_idle_old.
Also, cpuidle look at the return values of attch_driver() and set
current_driver to NULL if attach fails on all CPUs.

cpuidle take2: Core cpuidle infrastructure
Announcing 'cpuidle', a new CPU power management infrastructure to manage
idle CPUs in a clean and efficient manner.
cpuidle separates out the drivers that can provide support for multiple types
of idle states and policy governors that decide on what idle state to use
at run time.
A cpuidle driver can support multiple idle states based on parameters like
varying power consumption, wakeup latency, etc (ACPI C-states for example).
A cpuidle governor can be usage model specific (laptop, server,
laptop on battery etc).
Main advantage of the infrastructure being, it allows independent development
of drivers and governors and allows for better CPU power management.
A huge thanks to Adam Belay and Shaohua Li who were part of this mini-project
since its beginning and are greatly responsible for this patchset.
This patch:
Core cpuidle infrastructure.
Introduces a new abstraction layer for cpuidle:
* which manages drivers that can support multiple idles states. Drivers
can be generic or particular to specific hardware/platform
* allows pluging in multiple policy governors that can take idle state policy
decision
* The core also has a set of sysfs interfaces with which administrato can know
about supported drivers and governors and switch them at run time.

Find out whether you have a PCI motherboard. PCI is the name of a
|
|
|
|
bus system, i.e. the way the CPU talks to the other stuff inside
|
|
|
|
your box. Other bus systems are ISA, EISA, MicroChannel (MCA) or
|
|
|
|
VESA. If you have PCI, say Y, otherwise N.

doesn't.

|
On PCI systems, the BIOS can be used to detect the PCI devices and
|
|
|
|
determine their configuration. However, some old PCI motherboards
|
|
|
|
have BIOS bugs and may crash if this is done. Also, some embedded
|
|
|
|
PCI-based systems don't have any BIOS at all. Linux can also try to
|
|
|
|
detect the PCI hardware directly without using the BIOS.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
With this option, you can specify how Linux should detect the
|
|
|
|
PCI devices. If you choose "BIOS", the BIOS will be used,
|
|
|
|
if you choose "Direct", the BIOS won't be used, and if you
|
|
|
|
choose "MMConfig", then PCI Express MMCONFIG will be used.
|
|
|
|
If you choose "Any", the kernel will try MMCONFIG, then the
|
|
|
|
direct access method and falls back to the BIOS if that doesn't
|
|
|
|
work. If unsure, go with the default, which is "Any".

developed as an open alternative to the IBM MicroChannel bus.

The EISA bus provided some of the features of the IBM MicroChannel

bus while maintaining backward compatibility with cards made for

the older ISA bus. The EISA bus saw limited use between 1988 and

1995 when it was made obsolete by the PCI bus.

NSC Geode SC-1100's buggy TSC, which loses time when the

[PATCH] x86/x86_64: deferred handling of writes to /proc/irqxx/smp_affinity
When handling writes to /proc/irq, current code is re-programming rte
entries directly. This is not recommended and could potentially cause
chipset's to lockup, or cause missing interrupts.
CONFIG_IRQ_BALANCE does this correctly, where it re-programs only when the
interrupt is pending. The same needs to be done for /proc/irq handling as well.
Otherwise user space irq balancers are really not doing the right thing.
- Changed pending_irq_balance_cpumask to pending_irq_migrate_cpumask for
lack of a generic name.
- added move_irq out of IRQ_BALANCE, and added this same to X86_64
- Added new proc handler for write, so we can do deferred write at irq
handling time.
- Display of /proc/irq/XX/smp_affinity used to display CPU_MASKALL, instead
it now shows only active cpu masks, or exactly what was set.
- Provided a common move_irq implementation, instead of duplicating
when using generic irq framework.
Tested on i386/x86_64 and ia64 with CONFIG_PCI_MSI turned on and off.
Tested UP builds as well.
MSI testing: tbd: I have cards, need to look for a x-over cable, although I
did test an earlier version of this patch. Will test in a couple days.
