This patch move the vsyscall_gtod_data handling out of vsyscall_64.c into an additonal file vsyscall_gtod.c to make the functionality available for x86 32 bit kernel. It also adds a new vsyscall_32.c which setup the VVAR page.

than one CPU, say Y.
|
|

If you say N here, the kernel will run on uni- 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,

uniprocessor machines. On a uniprocessor 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

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

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.

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

trust the BIOS to get all its memory reservations and usages

right. If you know your BIOS have problems beyond the

default 64K area, you can set this to 640 to avoid using the

entire low memory range.

not work or there's kernel crashes after certain hardware

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>.

---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.

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

is properly shutdown, so do not be surprised if this code does not

initially work for you. As of this writing the exact hardware

|
|
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 0x1000000 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. 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. 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.

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/power/apm-acpi.txt>
|
|
and the Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from

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.

---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.

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.)

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.

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.

Firmwares often provide initial graphics framebuffers so the BIOS,

bootloader or kernel can show basic video-output during boot for
|
|
user-guidance and debugging. Historically, x86 used the VESA BIOS
|
|
Extensions and EFI-framebuffers for this, which are mostly limited
|
|
to x86.
|
|
This option, if enabled, marks VGA/VBE/EFI framebuffers as generic
|
|
framebuffers so the new generic system-framebuffer drivers can be
|
|
used on x86. If the framebuffer is not compatible with the generic
|
|
modes, it is adverticed as fallback platform framebuffer so legacy
|
|
drivers like efifb, vesafb and uvesafb can pick it up.
|
|
If this option is not selected, all system framebuffers are always
|
|
marked as fallback platform framebuffers as usual.
|
|
|
|
Note: Legacy fbdev drivers, including vesafb, efifb, uvesafb, will
|
|
not be able to pick up generic system framebuffers if this option
|
|
is selected. You are highly encouraged to enable simplefb as
|
|
replacement if you select this option. simplefb can correctly deal
|

with generic system framebuffers. But you should still keep vesafb
|
|
and others enabled as fallback if a system framebuffer is

|
incompatible with simplefb.
