Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot 1093 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at 1094 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you 1095 intend to use this kernel on different machines. 1096 1097 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor 1098 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>. 1099 1100 If you are not sure, say Y; apart from resulting in a 66 KB bigger 1101 kernel, it won't hurt. 1102 1103config MTRR 1104 bool "MTRR (Memory Type Range Register) support" 1105 ---help--- 1106 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later) 1107 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control 1108 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have 1109 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining 1110 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer 1111 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance 1112 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a 1113 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's 1114 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this. 1115 1116 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar 1117 control registers on other processors can be easily supported 1118 as well: 1119 1120 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range 1121 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For 1122 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs. 1123 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two 1124 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing 1125 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code 1126 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them. 1127 1128 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only 1129 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This 1130 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here. 1131 1132 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll 1133 just add about 9 KB to your kernel. 1134 1135 See <file:Documentation/mtrr.txt> for more information. 1136 1137config MTRR_SANITIZER 1138 bool 1139 prompt "MTRR cleanup support" 1140 depends on MTRR 1141 help 1142 Convert MTRR layout from continuous to discrete, so X drivers can 1143 add writeback entries. 1144 1145 Can be disabled with disable_mtrr_cleanup on the kernel command line. 1146 The largest mtrr entry size for a continous block can be set with 1147 mtrr_chunk_size. 1148 1149 If unsure, say N. 1150 1151config MTRR_SANITIZER_ENABLE_DEFAULT 1152 int "MTRR cleanup enable value (0-1)" 1153 range 0 1 1154 default "0" 1155 depends on MTRR_SANITIZER 1156 help 1157 Enable mtrr cleanup default value 1158 1159config MTRR_SANITIZER_SPARE_REG_NR_DEFAULT 1160 int "MTRR cleanup spare reg num (0-7)" 1161 range 0 7 1162 default "1" 1163 depends on MTRR_SANITIZER 1164 help 1165 mtrr cleanup spare entries default, it can be changed via 1166 mtrr_spare_reg_nr=N on the kernel command line. 1167 1168config X86_PAT 1169 bool 1170 prompt "x86 PAT support" 1171 depends on MTRR 1172 help 1173 Use PAT attributes to setup page level cache control. 1174 1175 PATs are the modern equivalents of MTRRs and are much more 1176 flexible than MTRRs. 1177 1178 Say N here if you see bootup problems (boot crash, boot hang, 1179 spontaneous reboots) or a non-working video driver. 1180 1181 If unsure, say Y. 1182 1183config EFI 1184 def_bool n 1185 prompt "EFI runtime service support" 1186 depends on ACPI 1187 ---help--- 1188 This enables the kernel to use EFI runtime services that are 1189 available (such as the EFI variable services). 1190 1191 This option is only useful on systems that have EFI firmware. 1192 In addition, you should use the latest ELILO loader available 1193 at <http://elilo.sourceforge.net> in order to take advantage 1194 of EFI runtime services.

The crash dump kernel must be compiled 1275 to a memory address not used by the main kernel or BIOS using 1276 PHYSICAL_START, or it must be built as a relocatable image 1277 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y). 1278 For more details see Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt 1279 1280config PHYSICAL_START 1281 hex "Physical address where the kernel is loaded" if (EMBEDDED || CRASH_DUMP) 1282 default "0x1000000" if X86_NUMAQ 1283 default "0x200000" if X86_64 1284 default "0x100000" 1285 help 1286 This gives the physical address where the kernel is loaded. 1287 1288 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then 1289 bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and 1290 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where 1291 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical 1292 address. 1293 1294 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option 1295 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image 1296 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different 1297 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want 1298 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a 1299 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs 1300 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area 1301 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy. 1302 1303 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump, leave 1304 the value here unchanged to 0x100000 and set CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. 1305 Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux for capturing the crash dump 1306 change this value to start of the reserved region (Typically 16MB 1307 0x1000000). In other words, it can be set based on the "X" value as 1308 specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM" command line boot parameter 1309 passed to the panic-ed kernel. Typically this parameter is set as 1310 crashkernel=64M@16M. Please take a look at 1311 Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt for more details about crash dumps. 1312 1313 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as 1314 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used 1315 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have 1316 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it 1317 is present because there are users out there who continue to use 1318 vmlinux for dump capture.
