191 bool "Math emulation"
192 depends on 4xx || 8xx || E200 || PPC_MPC832x || E500
194 Some PowerPC chips designed for embedded applications do not have
195 a floating-point unit and therefore do not implement the
196 floating-point instructions in the PowerPC instruction set. If you
197 say Y here, the kernel will include code to emulate a floating-point
198 unit, which will allow programs that use floating-point
201 config 8XX_MINIMAL_FPEMU
202 bool "Minimal math emulation for 8xx"
203 depends on 8xx && !MATH_EMULATION
205 Older arch/ppc kernels still emulated a few floating point
206 instructions such as load and store, even when full math
207 emulation is disabled. Say "Y" here if you want to preserve
210 It is recommended that you build a soft-float userspace instead.
213 bool "Enable IOMMU virtual merging"
217 Cause IO segments sent to a device for DMA to be merged virtually
218 by the IOMMU when they happen to have been allocated contiguously.
219 This doesn't add pressure to the IOMMU allocator. However, some
220 drivers don't support getting large merged segments coming back
223 Most drivers don't have this problem; it is safe to say Y here.
226 bool "Support for enabling/disabling CPUs"
227 depends on SMP && HOTPLUG && EXPERIMENTAL && (PPC_PSERIES || PPC_PMAC)
229 Say Y here to be able to disable and re-enable individual
230 CPUs at runtime on SMP machines.
232 Say N if you are unsure.
234 config ARCH_ENABLE_MEMORY_HOTPLUG
238 bool "kexec system call (EXPERIMENTAL)"
239 depends on (PPC_PRPMC2800 || PPC_MULTIPLATFORM) && EXPERIMENTAL
241 kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your
242 current kernel, and to start another kernel. It is like a reboot
243 but it is independent of the system firmware. And like a reboot
244 you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.
246 The name comes from the similarity to the exec system call.
248 It is an ongoing process to be certain the hardware in a machine
249 is properly shutdown, so do not be surprised if this code does not
250 initially work for you. It may help to enable device hotplugging
251 support. As of this writing the exact hardware interface is
252 strongly in flux, so no good recommendation can be made.
255 bool "Build a kdump crash kernel (EXPERIMENTAL)"
256 depends on PPC_MULTIPLATFORM && PPC64 && EXPERIMENTAL
258 Build a kernel suitable for use as a kdump capture kernel.
259 The kernel will be linked at a different address than normal, and
260 so can only be used for Kdump.
262 Don't change this unless you know what you are doing.
265 bool "Enable reading PPCBUG NVRAM during boot" if PPLUS || LOPEC
266 default y if PPC_PREP
269 bool "Distribute interrupts on all CPUs by default"
270 depends on SMP && !MV64360
272 This option gives the kernel permission to distribute IRQs across
273 multiple CPUs. Saying N here will route all IRQs to the first
274 CPU. Generally saying Y is safe, although some problems have been
275 reported with SMP Power Macintoshes with this option enabled.

312 # Some NUMA nodes have memory ranges that span
313 # other nodes. Even though a pfn is valid and
314 # between a node's start and end pfns, it may not
315 # reside on that node. See memmap_init_zone()
317 config NODES_SPAN_OTHER_NODES
319 depends on NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES
321 config PPC_HAS_HASH_64K
329 select PPC_HAS_HASH_64K
331 This option changes the kernel logical page size to 64k. On machines
332 without processor support for 64k pages, the kernel will simulate
333 them by loading each individual 4k page on demand transparently,
334 while on hardware with such support, it will be used to map
335 normal application pages.
338 bool "SMT (Hyperthreading) scheduler support"
339 depends on PPC64 && SMP
341 SMT scheduler support improves the CPU scheduler's decision making
342 when dealing with POWER5 cpus at a cost of slightly increased
343 overhead in some places. If unsure say N here.
345 config PROC_DEVICETREE
346 bool "Support for device tree in /proc"
349 This option adds a device-tree directory under /proc which contains
350 an image of the device tree that the kernel copies from Open
351 Firmware or other boot firmware. If unsure, say Y here.
354 bool "Default bootloader kernel arguments"
357 string "Initial kernel command string"
358 depends on CMDLINE_BOOL
359 default "console=ttyS0,9600 console=tty0 root=/dev/sda2"
361 On some platforms, there is currently no way for the boot loader to
362 pass arguments to the kernel. For these platforms, you can supply
363 some command-line options at build time by entering them here. In
364 most cases you will need to specify the root device here.
367 source kernel/power/Kconfig
371 bool "Enable seccomp to safely compute untrusted bytecode"
375 This kernel feature is useful for number crunching applications
376 that may need to compute untrusted bytecode during their
377 execution. By using pipes or other transports made available to
378 the process as file descriptors supporting the read/write
379 syscalls, it's possible to isolate those applications in
380 their own address space using seccomp. Once seccomp is
381 enabled via /proc/<pid>/seccomp, it cannot be disabled
382 and the task is only allowed to execute a few safe syscalls
383 defined by each seccomp mode.
385 If unsure, say Y. Only embedded should say N here.
387 config WANT_DEVICE_TREE
392 string "Static device tree source file"
393 depends on WANT_DEVICE_TREE
395 This specifies the device tree source (.dts) file to be
396 compiled and included when building the bootwrapper. If a
397 relative filename is given, then it will be relative to
398 arch/powerpc/boot/dts. If you are not using the bootwrapper,
399 or do not need to build a dts into the bootwrapper, this
402 For example, this is required when building a cuImage target
403 for an older U-Boot, which cannot pass a device tree itself.
404 Such a kernel will not work with a newer U-Boot that tries to
405 pass a device tree (unless you tell it not to). If your U-Boot
406 does not mention a device tree in "help bootm", then use the
407 cuImage target and specify a device tree here. Otherwise, use
408 the uImage target and leave this field blank.
419 bool "Support for ISA-bus hardware"
420 depends on PPC_PREP || PPC_CHRP
423 Find out whether you have ISA slots on your motherboard. ISA is the
424 name of a bus system, i.e. the way the CPU talks to the other stuff
425 inside your box. If you have an Apple machine, say N here; if you
426 have an IBM RS/6000 or pSeries machine or a PReP machine, say Y. If
427 you have an embedded board, consult your board documentation.

468 default PCI_QSPAN if !4xx && !CPM2 && 8xx
469 select ARCH_SUPPORTS_MSI
471 Find out whether your system includes a PCI bus. PCI is the name of
472 a bus system, i.e. the way the CPU talks to the other stuff inside
473 your box. If you say Y here, the kernel will include drivers and
474 infrastructure code to support PCI bus devices.
484 depends on !4xx && !CPM2 && 8xx
487 Say Y here if you have a system based on a Motorola 8xx-series
488 embedded processor with a QSPAN PCI interface, otherwise say N.

535 This option will enable prompting for a variety of advanced kernel
536 configuration options. These options can cause the kernel to not
537 work if they are set incorrectly, but can be used to optimize certain
538 aspects of kernel memory management.

549 This option allows you to set the base address of the kernel virtual
550 area used to map high memory pages. This can be useful in
551 optimizing the layout of kernel virtual memory.

563 This option allows you to set the maximum amount of memory which
564 will be used as "low memory", that is, memory which the kernel can
565 access directly, without having to set up a kernel virtual mapping.
566 This can be useful in optimizing the layout of kernel virtual

577 depends on ADVANCED_OPTIONS
579 This option allows you to set the kernel virtual address at which
580 the kernel will map low memory (the kernel image will be linked at
581 this address). This can be useful in optimizing the virtual memory
582 layout of the system.

634 This option allows you to set the initial load address of the zImage
635 or zImage.initrd file. This can be useful if you are on a board
636 which has a small amount of memory.
