77 comment "Processor type and features"
79 source "kernel/time/Kconfig"
84 Select this option if you have a 64 bit IBM zSeries machine
85 and want to use the 64 bit addressing mode.
92 bool "Symmetric multi-processing support"
94 This enables support for systems with more than one CPU. If you have
95 a system with only one CPU, like most personal computers, say N. If
96 you have a system with more than one CPU, say Y.
98 If you say N here, the kernel will run on single and multiprocessor
99 machines, but will use only one CPU of a multiprocessor machine. If
100 you say Y here, the kernel will run on many, but not all,
101 singleprocessor machines. On a singleprocessor machine, the kernel
102 will run faster if you say N here.
104 See also the SMP-HOWTO available at
105 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
107 Even if you don't know what to do here, say Y.
110 int "Maximum number of CPUs (2-64)"
113 default "32" if !64BIT
114 default "64" if 64BIT
116 This allows you to specify the maximum number of CPUs which this
117 kernel will support. The maximum supported value is 64 and the
118 minimum value which makes sense is 2.
120 This is purely to save memory - each supported CPU adds
121 approximately sixteen kilobytes to the kernel image.
124 bool "Support for hot-pluggable CPUs"
129 Say Y here to be able to turn CPUs off and on. CPUs
130 can be controlled through /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu#.
131 Say N if you want to disable CPU hotplug.
134 bool "IEEE FPU emulation"
137 This option is required for IEEE compliant floating point arithmetic
138 on older S/390 machines. Say Y unless you know your machine doesn't
142 bool "Kernel support for 31 bit emulation"
145 Select this option if you want to enable your system kernel to
146 handle system-calls from ELF binaries for 31 bit ESA. This option
147 (and some other stuff like libraries and such) is needed for
148 executing 31 bit applications. It is safe to say "Y".
150 config SYSVIPC_COMPAT
152 depends on COMPAT && SYSVIPC
159 config S390_SWITCH_AMODE
160 bool "Switch kernel/user addressing modes"
162 This option allows to switch the addressing modes of kernel and user
163 space. The kernel parameter switch_amode=on will enable this feature,
164 default is disabled. Enabling this (via kernel parameter) on machines
165 earlier than IBM System z9-109 EC/BC will reduce system performance.
167 Note that this option will also be selected by selecting the execute
168 protection option below. Enabling the execute protection via the
169 noexec kernel parameter will also switch the addressing modes,
170 independent of the switch_amode kernel parameter.
173 config S390_EXEC_PROTECT
174 bool "Data execute protection"
175 select S390_SWITCH_AMODE
177 This option allows to enable a buffer overflow protection for user
178 space programs and it also selects the addressing mode option above.
179 The kernel parameter noexec=on will enable this feature and also
180 switch the addressing modes, default is disabled. Enabling this (via
181 kernel parameter) on machines earlier than IBM System z9-109 EC/BC
182 will reduce system performance.
184 comment "Code generation options"
187 prompt "Processor type"
191 bool "S/390 model G5 and G6"
194 Select this to build a 31 bit kernel that works
195 on all S/390 and zSeries machines.
198 bool "IBM eServer zSeries model z800 and z900"
200 Select this to optimize for zSeries machines. This
201 will enable some optimizations that are not available
202 on older 31 bit only CPUs.
205 bool "IBM eServer zSeries model z890 and z990"
207 Select this enable optimizations for model z890/z990.
208 This will be slightly faster but does not work on
209 older machines such as the z900.
214 Select this to enable optimizations for IBM System z9-109, IBM
215 System z9 Enterprise Class (z9 EC), and IBM System z9 Business
216 Class (z9 BC). The kernel will be slightly faster but will not
217 work on older machines such as the z990, z890, z900, and z800.
222 bool "Pack kernel stack"
224 This option enables the compiler option -mkernel-backchain if it
225 is available. If the option is available the compiler supports
226 the new stack layout which dramatically reduces the minimum stack
227 frame size. With an old compiler a non-leaf function needs a
228 minimum of 96 bytes on 31 bit and 160 bytes on 64 bit. With
229 -mkernel-backchain the minimum size drops to 16 byte on 31 bit
230 and 24 byte on 64 bit.
232 Say Y if you are unsure.
235 bool "Use 4kb/8kb for kernel stack instead of 8kb/16kb"
236 depends on PACK_STACK && !LOCKDEP
238 If you say Y here and the compiler supports the -mkernel-backchain
239 option the kernel will use a smaller kernel stack size. For 31 bit
240 the reduced size is 4kb instead of 8kb and for 64 bit it is 8kb
241 instead of 16kb. This allows to run more thread on a system and
242 reduces the pressure on the memory management for higher order
245 Say N if you are unsure.
249 bool "Detect kernel stack overflow"
251 This option enables the compiler option -mstack-guard and
252 -mstack-size if they are available. If the compiler supports them
253 it will emit additional code to each function prolog to trigger
254 an illegal operation if the kernel stack is about to overflow.
256 Say N if you are unsure.
259 int "Size of the guard area (128-1024)"
261 depends on CHECK_STACK
264 This allows you to specify the size of the guard area at the lower
265 end of the kernel stack. If the kernel stack points into the guard
266 area on function entry an illegal operation is triggered. The size
267 needs to be a power of 2. Please keep in mind that the size of an
268 interrupt frame is 184 bytes for 31 bit and 328 bytes on 64 bit.
269 The minimum size for the stack guard should be 256 for 31 bit and
273 bool "Emit compiler warnings for function with broken stack usage"
275 This option enables the compiler options -mwarn-framesize and
276 -mwarn-dynamicstack. If the compiler supports these options it
277 will generate warnings for function which either use alloca or
278 create a stack frame bigger then CONFIG_WARN_STACK_SIZE.
280 Say N if you are unsure.
282 config WARN_STACK_SIZE
283 int "Maximum frame size considered safe (128-2048)"
285 depends on WARN_STACK
288 This allows you to specify the maximum frame size a function may
289 have without the compiler complaining about it.

296 source "kernel/Kconfig.preempt"
300 comment "I/O subsystem configuration"
302 config MACHCHK_WARNING
303 bool "Process warning machine checks"
305 Select this option if you want the machine check handler on IBM S/390 or
306 zSeries to process warning machine checks (e.g. on power failures).
310 tristate "QDIO support"
312 This driver provides the Queued Direct I/O base support for
315 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
316 module will be called qdio.
321 bool "Extended debugging information"
324 Say Y here to get extended debugging output in
325 /sys/kernel/debug/s390dbf/qdio...
326 Warning: this option reduces the performance of the QDIO module.
333 bool "Builtin IPL record support"
335 If you want to use the produced kernel to IPL directly from a
336 device, you have to merge a bootsector specific to the device
337 into the first bytes of the kernel. You will have to select the
341 prompt "IPL method generated into head.S"
345 Select "tape" if you want to IPL the image from a Tape.
347 Select "vm_reader" if you are running under VM/ESA and want
348 to IPL the image from the emulated card reader.
358 source "fs/Kconfig.binfmt"
360 config FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER
365 bool "Show crashed user process info"
367 Say Y to print all process fault locations to the console. This is
368 a debugging option; you probably do not want to set it unless you
369 are an S390 port maintainer.
372 bool "Pseudo page fault support"
374 Select this option, if you want to use PFAULT pseudo page fault
375 handling under VM. If running native or in LPAR, this option
376 has no effect. If your VM does not support PFAULT, PAGEEX
377 pseudo page fault handling will be used.
378 Note that VM 4.2 supports PFAULT but has a bug in its
379 implementation that causes some problems.
380 Everybody who wants to run Linux under VM != VM4.2 should select
384 bool "VM shared kernel support"
386 Select this option, if you want to share the text segment of the
387 Linux kernel between different VM guests. This reduces memory
388 usage with lots of guests but greatly increases kernel size.
389 Also if a kernel was IPL'ed from a shared segment the kexec system
391 You should only select this option if you know what you are
392 doing and want to exploit this feature.
395 tristate "Cooperative memory management"
397 Select this option, if you want to enable the kernel interface
398 to reduce the memory size of the system. This is accomplished
399 by allocating pages of memory and put them "on hold". This only
400 makes sense for a system running under VM where the unused pages
401 will be reused by VM for other guest systems. The interface
402 allows an external monitor to balance memory of many systems.
403 Everybody who wants to run Linux under VM should select this
407 bool "/proc interface to cooperative memory management"
410 Select this option to enable the /proc interface to the
411 cooperative memory management.
414 bool "IUCV special message interface to cooperative memory management"
415 depends on CMM && (SMSGIUCV=y || CMM=SMSGIUCV)
417 Select this option to enable the special message interface to
418 the cooperative memory management.
421 bool "Virtual CPU timer support"
423 This provides a kernel interface for virtual CPU timers.
426 config VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING
427 bool "Base user process accounting on virtual cpu timer"
428 depends on VIRT_TIMER
430 Select this option to use CPU timer deltas to do user
434 bool "Linux - VM Monitor Stream, base infrastructure"
435 depends on PROC_FS && VIRT_TIMER=y
437 This provides a kernel interface for creating and updating z/VM APPLDATA
438 monitor records. The monitor records are updated at certain time
439 intervals, once the timer is started.
440 Writing 1 or 0 to /proc/appldata/timer starts(1) or stops(0) the timer,
441 i.e. enables or disables monitoring on the Linux side.
442 A custom interval value (in seconds) can be written to
443 /proc/appldata/interval.
445 Defaults are 60 seconds interval and timer off.
446 The /proc entries can also be read from, showing the current settings.
449 tristate "Monitor memory management statistics"
450 depends on APPLDATA_BASE && VM_EVENT_COUNTERS
452 This provides memory management related data to the Linux - VM Monitor
453 Stream, like paging/swapping rate, memory utilisation, etc.
454 Writing 1 or 0 to /proc/appldata/memory creates(1) or removes(0) a z/VM
455 APPLDATA monitor record, i.e. enables or disables monitoring this record
459 The /proc entry can also be read from, showing the current settings.
461 This can also be compiled as a module, which will be called
465 tristate "Monitor OS statistics"
466 depends on APPLDATA_BASE
468 This provides OS related data to the Linux - VM Monitor Stream, like
469 CPU utilisation, etc.
470 Writing 1 or 0 to /proc/appldata/os creates(1) or removes(0) a z/VM
471 APPLDATA monitor record, i.e. enables or disables monitoring this record
475 This can also be compiled as a module, which will be called
478 config APPLDATA_NET_SUM
479 tristate "Monitor overall network statistics"
480 depends on APPLDATA_BASE
482 This provides network related data to the Linux - VM Monitor Stream,
483 currently there is only a total sum of network I/O statistics, no
485 Writing 1 or 0 to /proc/appldata/net_sum creates(1) or removes(0) a z/VM
486 APPLDATA monitor record, i.e. enables or disables monitoring this record
490 This can also be compiled as a module, which will be called
493 source kernel/Kconfig.hz
496 bool "s390 hypervisor file system support"
497 select SYS_HYPERVISOR
500 This is a virtual file system intended to provide accounting
501 information in an s390 hypervisor environment.
504 bool "kexec system call"
506 kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your
507 current kernel, and to start another kernel. It is like a reboot
508 but is independent of hardware/microcode support.
511 tristate "zfcpdump support"
