Have the GART_IOMMU help text specify that this is the hardware IOMMU in amd64 processors. This will be significant if/when other IOMMUs are added to the x86-64 architecture. :-) Also, note that the previous help text stated that IOMMU was needed for >3GB memory instead of >4GB. This is fixed in the newer version. Signed-off-by: Jon Mason <jdmason@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

|
|
---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.
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
Just say Y here, all x86-64 machines support MTRRs.

See <file:Documentation/mtrr.txt> for more information.

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

you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.

The name comes from the similiarity to the exec system call.

It is an ongoing process to be certain the hardware in a machine
|
|
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. Normally

for regular kernels this value is 0x200000 (2MB). But in the case

|
address than the panic-ed kernel. This option is used to set the load
|
|
address for kernels used to capture crash dump on being kexec'ed
|
|
after panic. The default value for crash dump kernels is
|
|
0x1000000 (16MB). This can also 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

Kprobes allows you to trap at almost any kernel address and
|
|
execute a callback function. register_kprobe() establishes
|
|
a probepoint and specifies the callback. Kprobes is useful
|
|
for kernel debugging, non-intrusive instrumentation and testing.
|
|
If in doubt, say "N".
