269 Some PowerPC chips designed for embedded applications do not have
270 a floating-point unit and therefore do not implement the
271 floating-point instructions in the PowerPC instruction set. If you
272 say Y here, the kernel will include code to emulate a floating-point

285 It is recommended that you build a soft-float userspace instead.
288 bool "Enable IOMMU virtual merging"
292 Cause IO segments sent to a device for DMA to be merged virtually
293 by the IOMMU when they happen to have been allocated contiguously.
294 This doesn't add pressure to the IOMMU allocator. However, some
295 drivers don't support getting large merged segments coming back
298 Most drivers don't have this problem; it is safe to say Y here.

326 bool "kexec system call (EXPERIMENTAL)"
327 depends on PPC_BOOK3S && EXPERIMENTAL
329 kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your
330 current kernel, and to start another kernel. It is like a reboot
331 but it is independent of the system firmware. And like a reboot
332 you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.
334 The name comes from the similarity to the exec system call.
336 It is an ongoing process to be certain the hardware in a machine
337 is properly shutdown, so do not be surprised if this code does not
338 initially work for you. It may help to enable device hotplugging
339 support. As of this writing the exact hardware interface is
340 strongly in flux, so no good recommendation can be made.
343 bool "Build a kdump crash kernel"

352 bool "Hypervisor-assisted dump (EXPERIMENTAL)"

367 depends on SMP && !MV64360
369 This option gives the kernel permission to distribute IRQs across
370 multiple CPUs. Saying N here will route all IRQs to the first
371 CPU. Generally saying Y is safe, although some problems have been
372 reported with SMP Power Macintoshes with this option enabled.

419 config PPC_HAS_HASH_64K
425 bool "Using standard binutils settings"
429 Turning this option off allows you to select 256KB PAGE_SIZE on 44x.
430 Note, that kernel will be able to run only those applications,
431 which had been compiled using binutils later than 2.17.50.0.3 with
432 '-zmax-page-size' set to 256K (the default is 64K). Or, if using
433 the older binutils, you can patch them with a trivial patch, which
434 changes the ELF_MAXPAGESIZE definition from 0x10000 to 0x40000.
440 Select the kernel logical page size. Increasing the page size
441 will reduce software overhead at each page boundary, allow
442 hardware prefetch mechanisms to be more effective, and allow
443 larger dma transfers increasing IO efficiency and reducing
444 overhead. However the utilization of memory will increase.
445 For example, each cached file will using a multiple of the
446 page size to hold its contents and the difference between the
447 end of file and the end of page is wasted.
449 Some dedicated systems, such as software raid serving with
450 accelerated calculations, have shown significant increases.
452 If you configure a 64 bit kernel for 64k pages but the
453 processor does not support them, then the kernel will simulate
454 them with 4k pages, loading them on demand, but with the
455 reduced software overhead and larger internal fragmentation.
456 For the 32 bit kernel, a large page option will not be offered
457 unless it is supported by the configured processor.
459 If unsure, choose 4K_PAGES.

472 bool "256k page size" if 44x
473 depends on !STDBINUTILS
475 Make the page size 256k.
477 As the ELF standard only requires alignment to support page
478 sizes up to 64k, you will need to compile all of your user
479 space applications with a non-standard binutils settings
480 (see the STDBINUTILS description for details).
482 Say N unless you know what you are doing.
486 config FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER

496 range 5 64 if PPC_STD_MMU_32 && PPC_256K_PAGES
497 default "5" if PPC_STD_MMU_32 && PPC_256K_PAGES
501 The kernel memory allocator divides physically contiguous memory
502 blocks into "zones", where each zone is a power of two number of
503 pages. This option selects the largest power of two that the kernel
504 keeps in the memory allocator. If you need to allocate very large
505 blocks of physically contiguous memory, then you may need to
508 This config option is actually maximum order plus one. For example,
509 a value of 11 means that the largest free memory block is 2^10 pages.
511 The page size is not necessarily 4KB. For example, on 64-bit
512 systems, 64KB pages can be enabled via CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES. Keep
513 this in mind when choosing a value for this option.
515 config PPC_SUBPAGE_PROT
516 bool "Support setting protections for 4k subpages"
517 depends on PPC_STD_MMU_64 && PPC_64K_PAGES
519 This option adds support for a system call to allow user programs
520 to set access permissions (read/write, readonly, or no access)
521 on the 4k subpages of each 64k page.
524 bool "SMT (Hyperthreading) scheduler support"
525 depends on PPC64 && SMP
527 SMT scheduler support improves the CPU scheduler's decision making
528 when dealing with POWER5 cpus at a cost of slightly increased
529 overhead in some places. If unsure say N here.
531 config PROC_DEVICETREE
532 bool "Support for device tree in /proc"
535 This option adds a device-tree directory under /proc which contains
536 an image of the device tree that the kernel copies from Open
537 Firmware or other boot firmware. If unsure, say Y here.
540 bool "Default bootloader kernel arguments"
543 string "Initial kernel command string"
544 depends on CMDLINE_BOOL
545 default "console=ttyS0,9600 console=tty0 root=/dev/sda2"
547 On some platforms, there is currently no way for the boot loader to
548 pass arguments to the kernel. For these platforms, you can supply
549 some command-line options at build time by entering them here. In
550 most cases you will need to specify the root device here.
553 string "Additional default image types"
555 List additional targets to be built by the bootwrapper here (separated
556 by spaces). This is useful for targets that depend of device tree
557 files in the .dts directory.
559 Targets in this list will be build as part of the default build
560 target, or when the user does a 'make zImage' or a
561 'make zImage.initrd'.
563 If unsure, leave blank
566 config ARCH_WANTS_FREEZER_CONTROL
570 source kernel/power/Kconfig
574 bool "Enable seccomp to safely compute untrusted bytecode"
578 This kernel feature is useful for number crunching applications
579 that may need to compute untrusted bytecode during their
580 execution. By using pipes or other transports made available to
581 the process as file descriptors supporting the read/write
582 syscalls, it's possible to isolate those applications in
583 their own address space using seccomp. Once seccomp is
584 enabled via /proc/<pid>/seccomp, it cannot be disabled
585 and the task is only allowed to execute a few safe syscalls
586 defined by each seccomp mode.
588 If unsure, say Y. Only embedded should say N here.

604 name of a bus system, i.e. the way the CPU talks to the other stuff
605 inside your box. If you have an Apple machine, say N here; if you
606 have an IBM RS/6000 or pSeries machine or a PReP machine, say Y. If

671 a bus system, i.e. the way the CPU talks to the other stuff inside
672 your box. If you say Y here, the kernel will include drivers and
673 infrastructure code to support PCI bus devices.
