1704	help
1705	  Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
1706	  operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
1707	  a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
1708	  a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
1709	  give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
1710	  coprocessor or this emulation.
1711
1712	  If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1713	  say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1714	  be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1715	  command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1716	  is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1717	  loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1718	  boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1719	  intend to use this kernel on different machines.
1720
1721	  More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
1722	  emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.

1726
1727config MTRR
1728	def_bool y
1729	prompt "MTRR (Memory Type Range Register) support" if EXPERT
1730	help
1731	  On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1732	  the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1733	  processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1734	  a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1735	  allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1736	  before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1737	  of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1738	  /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1739	  MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1740
1741	  This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1742	  control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1743	  as well:
1744
1745	  The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1746	  Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1747	  these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1748	  The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1749	  MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1750	  write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1751	  and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1752
1753	  Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1754	  set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1755	  can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1756
1757	  You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1758	  just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

2060	  If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
2061	  bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and
2062	  run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
2063	  it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
2064	  address.
2065
2066	  In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
2067	  as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
2068	  (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
2069	  address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
2070	  to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
2071	  vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
2072	  to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
2073	  (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
2074
2075	  So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump,
2076	  leave the value here unchanged to 0x1000000 and set
2077	  CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.  Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux
2078	  for capturing the crash dump change this value to start of
2079	  the reserved region.  In other words, it can be set based on
2080	  the "X" value as specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM"
2081	  command line boot parameter passed to the panic-ed
2082	  kernel. Please take a look at Documentation/admin-guide/kdump/kdump.rst
2083	  for more details about crash dumps.
2084
2085	  Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
2086	  one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
2087	  as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
2088	  gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
2089	  is present because there are users out there who continue to use

2455

2458
2459	  Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
2460	  machines with more than one CPU.
2461
2462	  In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location

2470

2473	  desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver

2477	  much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
2478	  random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
2479	  anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
2480	  APM in your BIOS).
2481
2482	  Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
2483	  "weird" problems:
2484
2485	  1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
2486	  enabled.
2487	  2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
2488	  3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
2489	  the "no387" option to the kernel
2490	  4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
2491	  5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
2492	  all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
2493	  6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
2494	  7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
2495	  8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
2496	  9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
2497	  10) install a better fan for the CPU
2498	  11) exchange RAM chips

2518	  power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend
2519	  State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
2520	  This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
2521	  feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
2522	  should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
2523	  will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
2524	  this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
2525	  support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
2526	  this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba
2527	  T400CDT. This is off by default since most machines do fine without
2528	  this feature.

2534	  Enable calls to APM CPU Idle/CPU Busy inside the kernel's idle loop.
2535	  On some machines, this can activate improved power savings, such as
2536	  a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
2537	  are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,
2538	  333 mS). On some machines, this will cause a hang at boot time or
2539	  whenever the CPU becomes idle. (On machines with more than one CPU,

2549	  when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
2550	  do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
2551	  option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your
