bool "Symmetric multi-processing support"
---help---
This enables support for systems with more than one CPU. If you have
a system with only one CPU, like most personal computers, say N. If
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
Management" code will be disabled if you say Y here.
See also <file:Documentation/i386/IO-APIC.txt>,
<file:Documentation/nmi_watchdog.txt> and the SMP-HOWTO available at
<http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
If you don't know what to do here, say N.
config X86_X2APIC
bool "Support x2apic"
depends on X86_LOCAL_APIC && X86_64
---help---
This enables x2apic support on CPUs that have this feature.
This allows 32-bit apic IDs (so it can support very large systems),
and accesses the local apic via MSRs not via mmio.
( On certain CPU models you may need to enable INTR_REMAP too,
to get functional x2apic mode. )
If you don't know what to do here, say N.
config SPARSE_IRQ
bool "Support sparse irq numbering"
depends on PCI_MSI || HT_IRQ
---help---
This enables support for sparse irqs. This is useful for distro
kernels that want to define a high CONFIG_NR_CPUS value but still
want to have low kernel memory footprint on smaller machines.
( Sparse IRQs can also be beneficial on NUMA boxes, as they spread
out the irq_desc[] array in a more NUMA-friendly way. )
If you don't know what to do here, say N.
config NUMA_MIGRATE_IRQ_DESC
bool "Move irq desc when changing irq smp_affinity"

---help---
If you disable this option then the kernel will only support
standard PC platforms. (which covers the vast majority of
systems out there.)
If you enable this option then you'll be able to select a number
of non-PC x86 platforms.
If you have one of these systems, or if you want to build a
generic distribution kernel, say Y here - otherwise say N.

---help---
This option compiles in the NUMAQ, Summit, bigsmp, ES7000, default
subarchitectures. It is intended for a generic binary kernel.
if you select them all, kernel will probe it one by one. and will
fallback to default.

---help---
This option is used for getting Linux to run on a NUMAQ (IBM/Sequent)
NUMA multiquad box. This changes the way that processors are
bootstrapped, and uses Clustered Logical APIC addressing mode instead
of Flat Logical. You will need a new lynxer.elf file to flash your
firmware with - send email to <Martin.Bligh@us.ibm.com>.

The SGI Visual Workstation series is an IA32-based workstation
based on SGI systems chips with some legacy PC hardware attached.
Say Y here to create a kernel to run on the SGI 320 or 540.
A kernel compiled for the Visual Workstation will run on general
PCs as well. See <file:Documentation/sgi-visws.txt> for details.
config X86_SUMMIT
bool "Summit/EXA (IBM x440)"

---help---
Voyager is an MCA-based 32-way capable SMP architecture proprietary
to NCR Corp. Machine classes 345x/35xx/4100/51xx are Voyager-based.
*** WARNING ***
If you do not specifically know you have a Voyager based machine,
say N here, otherwise the kernel you build will not be bootable.
config SCHED_OMIT_FRAME_POINTER
def_bool y
prompt "Single-depth WCHAN output"
depends on X86
---help---
Calculate simpler /proc/<PID>/wchan values. If this option
is disabled then wchan values will recurse back to the
caller function. This provides more accurate wchan values,
at the expense of slightly more scheduling overhead.
If in doubt, say "Y".
menuconfig PARAVIRT_GUEST
bool "Paravirtualized guest support"
---help---
Say Y here to get to see options related to running Linux under
various hypervisors. This option alone does not add any kernel code.
If you say N, all options in this submenu will be skipped and disabled.
if PARAVIRT_GUEST

VMI provides a paravirtualized interface to the VMware ESX server
(it could be used by other hypervisors in theory too, but is not
at the moment), by linking the kernel to a GPL-ed ROM module
provided by the hypervisor.
config KVM_CLOCK
bool "KVM paravirtualized clock"
select PARAVIRT
select PARAVIRT_CLOCK
---help---
Turning on this option will allow you to run a paravirtualized clock
when running over the KVM hypervisor. Instead of relying on a PIT
(or probably other) emulation by the underlying device model, the host
provides the guest with timing infrastructure such as time of day, and
system time
config KVM_GUEST
bool "KVM Guest support"

---help---
This option enables various optimizations for running under the KVM
hypervisor.
source "arch/x86/lguest/Kconfig"
config PARAVIRT
bool "Enable paravirtualization code"
---help---
This changes the kernel so it can modify itself when it is run
under a hypervisor, potentially improving performance significantly
over full virtualization. However, when run without a hypervisor
the kernel is theoretically slower and slightly larger.
config PARAVIRT_CLOCK

This option adds a kernel parameter 'memtest', which allows memtest
to be set.
memtest=0, mean disabled; -- default

---help---
Use the IA-PC HPET (High Precision Event Timer) to manage
time in preference to the PIT and RTC, if a HPET is
present.
HPET is the next generation timer replacing legacy 8254s.
The HPET provides a stable time base on SMP
systems, unlike the TSC, but it is more expensive to access,
as it is off-chip. You can find the HPET spec at
<http://www.intel.com/hardwaredesign/hpetspec_1.pdf>.
You can safely choose Y here. However, HPET will only be
activated if the platform and the BIOS support this feature.
Otherwise the 8254 will be used for timing services.
Choose N to continue using the legacy 8254 timer.
config HPET_EMULATE_RTC

bool "Enable DMI scanning" if EMBEDDED
---help---
Enabled scanning of DMI to identify machine quirks. Say Y
here unless you have verified that your setup is not
affected by entries in the DMI blacklist. Required by PNP
BIOS code.
config GART_IOMMU
bool "GART IOMMU support" if EMBEDDED
default y
select SWIOTLB
select AGP
depends on X86_64 && PCI
---help---
Support for full DMA access of devices with 32bit memory access only
on systems with more than 3GB. This is usually needed for USB,
sound, many IDE/SATA chipsets and some other devices.
Provides a driver for the AMD Athlon64/Opteron/Turion/Sempron GART
based hardware IOMMU and a software bounce buffer based IOMMU used
on Intel systems and as fallback.
The code is only active when needed (enough memory and limited
device) unless CONFIG_IOMMU_DEBUG or iommu=force is specified
too.
config CALGARY_IOMMU
bool "IBM Calgary IOMMU support"
select SWIOTLB
depends on X86_64 && PCI && EXPERIMENTAL
---help---
Support for hardware IOMMUs in IBM's xSeries x366 and x460
systems. Needed to run systems with more than 3GB of memory
properly with 32-bit PCI devices that do not support DAC
(Double Address Cycle). Calgary also supports bus level
isolation, where all DMAs pass through the IOMMU. This
prevents them from going anywhere except their intended
destination. This catches hard-to-find kernel bugs and
mis-behaving drivers and devices that do not use the DMA-API
properly to set up their DMA buffers. The IOMMU can be
turned off at boot time with the iommu=off parameter.
Normally the kernel will make the right choice by itself.
If unsure, say Y.
config CALGARY_IOMMU_ENABLED_BY_DEFAULT
def_bool y
prompt "Should Calgary be enabled by default?"
depends on CALGARY_IOMMU
---help---
Should Calgary be enabled by default? if you choose 'y', Calgary
will be used (if it exists). If you choose 'n', Calgary will not be
used even if it exists. If you choose 'n' and would like to use
Calgary anyway, pass 'iommu=calgary' on the kernel command line.
If unsure, say Y.
config AMD_IOMMU
bool "AMD IOMMU support"
select SWIOTLB
select PCI_MSI
depends on X86_64 && PCI && ACPI
---help---
With this option you can enable support for AMD IOMMU hardware in
your system. An IOMMU is a hardware component which provides
remapping of DMA memory accesses from devices. With an AMD IOMMU you
can isolate the the DMA memory of different devices and protect the
system from misbehaving device drivers or hardware.
You can find out if your system has an AMD IOMMU if you look into
your BIOS for an option to enable it or if you have an IVRS ACPI
table.
config AMD_IOMMU_STATS
bool "Export AMD IOMMU statistics to debugfs"
depends on AMD_IOMMU
select DEBUG_FS
---help---
This option enables code in the AMD IOMMU driver to collect various
statistics about whats happening in the driver and exports that
information to userspace via debugfs.
If unsure, say N.
# need this always selected by IOMMU for the VIA workaround
config SWIOTLB
def_bool y if X86_64
---help---
Support for software bounce buffers used on x86-64 systems
which don't have a hardware IOMMU (e.g. the current generation
of Intel's x86-64 CPUs). Using this PCI devices which can only
access 32-bits of memory can be used on systems with more than
3 GB of memory. If unsure, say Y.

---help---
This allows you to specify the maximum number of CPUs which this
kernel will support. The maximum supported value is 512 and the
minimum value which makes sense is 2.
This is purely to save memory - each supported CPU adds
approximately eight kilobytes to the kernel image.
config SCHED_SMT
bool "SMT (Hyperthreading) scheduler support"
depends on X86_HT
---help---
SMT scheduler support improves the CPU scheduler's decision making
when dealing with Intel Pentium 4 chips with HyperThreading at a
cost of slightly increased overhead in some places. If unsure say
N here.

config X86_UP_APIC
bool "Local APIC support on uniprocessors"
depends on X86_32 && !SMP && !X86_32_NON_STANDARD
---help---
A local APIC (Advanced Programmable Interrupt Controller) is an
integrated interrupt controller in the CPU. If you have a single-CPU
system which has a processor with a local APIC, you can say Y here to
enable and use it. If you say Y here even though your machine doesn't
have a local APIC, then the kernel will still run with no slowdown at
all. The local APIC supports CPU-generated self-interrupts (timer,
performance counters), and the NMI watchdog which detects hard
lockups.
config X86_UP_IOAPIC
bool "IO-APIC support on uniprocessors"
depends on X86_UP_APIC
---help---
An IO-APIC (I/O Advanced Programmable Interrupt Controller) is an
SMP-capable replacement for PC-style interrupt controllers. Most
SMP systems and many recent uniprocessor systems have one.
If you have a single-CPU system with an IO-APIC, you can say Y here
to use it. If you say Y here even though your machine doesn't have
an IO-APIC, then the kernel will still run with no slowdown at all.

config X86_REROUTE_FOR_BROKEN_BOOT_IRQS
bool "Reroute for broken boot IRQs"
default n
depends on X86_IO_APIC
---help---
This option enables a workaround that fixes a source of
spurious interrupts. This is recommended when threaded
interrupt handling is used on systems where the generation of
superfluous "boot interrupts" cannot be disabled.
Some chipsets generate a legacy INTx "boot IRQ" when the IRQ
entry in the chipset's IO-APIC is masked (as, e.g. the RT
kernel does during interrupt handling). On chipsets where this
boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps
the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot
IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the
kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this
way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise
the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring
down (vital) interrupt lines.
Only affects "broken" chipsets. Interrupt sharing may be
increased on these systems.
config X86_MCE
bool "Machine Check Exception"
---help---
Machine Check Exception support allows the processor to notify the
kernel if it detects a problem (e.g. overheating, component failure).
The action the kernel takes depends on the severity of the problem,
ranging from a warning message on the console, to halting the machine.
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"
as a boot argument. Similarly, if MCE is built in and creates a
problem on some new non-standard machine, you can boot with "nomce"
to disable it. MCE support simply ignores non-MCE processors like
the 386 and 486, so nearly everyone can say Y here.

tristate "Check for non-fatal errors on AMD Athlon/Duron / Intel Pentium 4"
depends on X86_32 && X86_MCE
---help---
Enabling this feature starts a timer that triggers every 5 seconds which
will look at the machine check registers to see if anything happened.
Non-fatal problems automatically get corrected (but still logged).
Disable this if you don't want to see these messages.
Seeing the messages this option prints out may be indicative of dying
or out-of-spec (ie, overclocked) hardware.
This option only does something on certain CPUs.

---help---
This option is required by programs like DOSEMU to run 16-bit legacy

XFree86 to initialize some video cards via BIOS. Disabling this
option saves about 6k.

is used to read cpu temperature and cooling fan status and to
control the fans on the I8K portables.
This driver has been tested only on the Inspiron 8000 but it may
also work with other Dell laptops. You can force loading on other

in order to get reboot to work correctly. This is only needed on
some combinations of hardware and BIOS. The symptom, for which

---help---
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
auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option
such as "mem=256M". (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.)

seconds; see the memory_corruption_check_size and
memory_corruption_check_period parameters in
Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt to adjust this.
When enabled with the default parameters, this option has
almost no overhead, as it reserves a relatively small amount
of memory and scans it infrequently. It both detects corruption
and prevents it from affecting the running system.
It is, however, intended as a diagnostic tool; if repeatable
BIOS-originated corruption always affects the same memory,
you can use memmap= to prevent the kernel from using that
memory.

config MATH_EMULATION

Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point

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
emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.
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.

This kernel feature is useful for number crunching applications

the process as file descriptors supporting the read/write
syscalls, it's possible to isolate those applications in
their own address space using seccomp. Once seccomp is

defined by each seccomp mode.

the stack just before the return address, and validates
the value just before actually returning. Stack based buffer
overflows (that need to overwrite this return address) now also
overwrite the canary, which gets detected and the attack is then
neutralized via a kernel panic.
This feature requires gcc version 4.2 or above, or a distribution
gcc with the feature backported. Older versions are automatically

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 similarity to the exec system call.
It is an ongoing process to be certain the hardware in a machine

This should be normally only set in special crash dump kernels
which are loaded in the main kernel with kexec-tools into

---help---
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.
Don't change this unless you know what you are doing.
config RELOCATABLE

The relocations tend to make the kernel binary about 10% larger,
but are discarded at runtime.
One use is for the kexec on panic case where the recovery kernel
must live at a different physical address than the primary
kernel.
Note: If CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y, then the kernel runs from the address
it has been loaded at and the compile time physical address
(CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START) is ignored.

---help---
This value puts the alignment restrictions on physical address
where kernel is loaded and run from. Kernel is compiled for an
address which meets above alignment restriction.
If bootloader loads the kernel at a non-aligned address and
CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is set, kernel will move itself to nearest
address aligned to above value and run from there.
If bootloader loads the kernel at a non-aligned address and
CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is not set, kernel will ignore the run time
load address and decompress itself to the address it has been
compiled for and run from there. The address for which kernel is
compiled already meets above alignment restrictions. Hence the
end result is that kernel runs from a physical address meeting
above alignment restrictions.

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.
if APM
config APM_IGNORE_USER_SUSPEND
bool "Ignore USER SUSPEND"
---help---
This option will ignore USER SUSPEND requests. On machines with a
compliant APM BIOS, you want to say N. However, on the NEC Versa M
series notebooks, it is necessary to say Y because of a BIOS bug.
config APM_DO_ENABLE
bool "Enable PM at boot time"
---help---
Enable APM features at boot time. From page 36 of the APM BIOS
specification: "When disabled, the APM BIOS does not automatically
power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend
State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba
T400CDT. This is off by default since most machines do fine without
this feature.
config APM_CPU_IDLE
bool "Make CPU Idle calls when idle"
---help---
Enable calls to APM CPU Idle/CPU Busy inside the kernel's idle loop.
On some machines, this can activate improved power savings, such as
a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,
333 mS). On some machines, this will cause a hang at boot time or
whenever the CPU becomes idle. (On machines with more than one CPU,
this option does nothing.)
config APM_DISPLAY_BLANK
bool "Enable console blanking using APM"
---help---
Enable console blanking using the APM. Some laptops can use this to
turn off the LCD backlight when the screen blanker of the Linux
virtual console blanks the screen. Note that this is only used by
the virtual console screen blanker, and won't turn off the backlight
when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your
backlight at all, or it might print a lot of errors to the console,
especially if you are using gpm.
config APM_ALLOW_INTS
bool "Allow interrupts during APM BIOS calls"
---help---
Normally we disable external interrupts while we are making calls to
the APM BIOS as a measure to lessen the effects of a badly behaving
BIOS implementation. The BIOS should reenable interrupts if it
needs to. Unfortunately, some BIOSes do not -- especially those in
many of the newer IBM Thinkpads. If you experience hangs when you
suspend, try setting this to Y. Otherwise, say N.

---help---
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".

Selecting this option will enable a DMAR device at boot time if

be enabled by passing intel_iommu=on to the kernel. It is
recommended you say N here while the DMAR code remains
experimental.

Current Graphics drivers tend to use physical address

option permits the IOMMU driver to set a unity map for
all the OS-visible memory. Hence the driver can continue
to use physical addresses for DMA.

Find out whether you have ISA slots on your motherboard. ISA 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 PCI, EISA, MicroChannel
(MCA) or VESA. ISA is an older system, now being displaced by PCI;
newer boards don't support it. If you have ISA, say Y, otherwise N.
config EISA
bool "EISA support"

---help---
The Extended Industry Standard Architecture (EISA) bus was
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.
Say Y here if you are building a kernel for an EISA-based machine.
Otherwise, say N.
