4 The following is a consolidated list of the kernel parameters as implemented
5 (mostly) by the __setup() macro and sorted into English Dictionary order
6 (defined as ignoring all punctuation and sorting digits before letters in a
7 case insensitive manner), and with descriptions where known.
9 Module parameters for loadable modules are specified only as the
10 parameter name with optional '=' and value as appropriate, such as:
12 modprobe usbcore blinkenlights=1
14 Module parameters for modules that are built into the kernel image
15 are specified on the kernel command line with the module name plus
16 '.' plus parameter name, with '=' and value if appropriate, such as:
18 usbcore.blinkenlights=1
20 This document may not be entirely up to date and comprehensive. The command
21 "modinfo -p ${modulename}" shows a current list of all parameters of a loadable
22 module. Loadable modules, after being loaded into the running kernel, also
23 reveal their parameters in /sys/module/${modulename}/parameters/. Some of these
24 parameters may be changed at runtime by the command
25 "echo -n ${value} > /sys/module/${modulename}/parameters/${parm}".
27 The parameters listed below are only valid if certain kernel build options were
28 enabled and if respective hardware is present. The text in square brackets at
29 the beginning of each description states the restrictions within which a
30 parameter is applicable:

101 More X86-64 boot options can be found in
102 Documentation/x86_64/boot-options.txt .
104 In addition, the following text indicates that the option:
106 BUGS= Relates to possible processor bugs on the said processor.
107 KNL Is a kernel start-up parameter.
108 BOOT Is a boot loader parameter.
110 Parameters denoted with BOOT are actually interpreted by the boot
111 loader, and have no meaning to the kernel directly.
112 Do not modify the syntax of boot loader parameters without extreme
113 need or coordination with <Documentation/i386/boot.txt>.
115 There are also arch-specific kernel-parameters not documented here.
116 See for example <Documentation/x86_64/boot-options.txt>.
118 Note that ALL kernel parameters listed below are CASE SENSITIVE, and that
119 a trailing = on the name of any parameter states that that parameter will
120 be entered as an environment variable, whereas its absence indicates that
121 it will appear as a kernel argument readable via /proc/cmdline by programs
122 running once the system is up.
124 The number of kernel parameters is not limited, but the length of the
125 complete command line (parameters including spaces etc.) is limited to
126 a fixed number of characters. This limit depends on the architecture
127 and is between 256 and 4096 characters. It is defined in the file
128 ./include/asm/setup.h as COMMAND_LINE_SIZE.

371 c101= [NET] Moxa C101 synchronous serial card
373 cachesize= [BUGS=X86-32] Override level 2 CPU cache size detection.
374 Sometimes CPU hardware bugs make them report the cache
375 size incorrectly. The kernel will attempt work arounds
376 to fix known problems, but for some CPUs it is not
377 possible to determine what the correct size should be.
378 This option provides an override for these situations.
380 security= [SECURITY] Choose a security module to enable at boot.
381 If this boot parameter is not specified, only the first

387 [SECURITY] Disable capabilities. This would normally
388 be used only if an alternative security model is to be
389 configured. Potentially dangerous and should only be
390 used if you are entirely sure of the consequences.

441 include/asm-x86/cpufeature.h for the valid bit numbers.
442 Note the Linux specific bits are not necessarily
443 stable over kernel options, but the vendor specific
445 Also note that user programs calling CPUID directly
446 or using the feature without checking anything
447 will still see it. This just prevents it from
448 being used by the kernel or shown in /proc/cpuinfo.
449 Also note the kernel might malfunction if you disable
452 code_bytes [IA32/X86_64] How many bytes of object code to print
459 [IA32/X86_64] Disable/Enable interrupt 0 timer routing
460 over the 8254 in addition to over the IO-APIC. The

503 UART at the specified I/O port or MMIO address,
504 switching to the matching ttyS device later. The
505 options are the same as for ttyS, above.
507 If the device connected to the port is not a TTY but a braille
508 device, prepend "brl," before the device type, for instance

520 [HW] Never suspend the console
521 Disable suspending of consoles during suspend and
522 hibernate operations. Once disabled, debugging
523 messages can reach various consoles while the rest
524 of the system is being put to sleep (ie, while
525 debugging driver suspend/resume hooks). This may
526 not work reliably with all consoles, but is known
527 to work with serial and VGA consoles.

626 Large value could prevent small alignment from
629 mtrr_spare_reg_nr=n [X86]
631 Range: 0,7 : spare reg number
633 Used for mtrr cleanup. It is spare mtrr entries number.
634 Set to 2 or more if your graphical card needs more.
636 disable_mtrr_trim [X86, Intel and AMD only]
637 By default the kernel will trim any uncacheable
638 memory out of your available memory pool based on
639 MTRR settings. This parameter disables that behavior,

940 <cpu number>,...,<cpu number>
942 <cpu number>-<cpu number> (must be a positive range in ascending order)
944 <cpu number>,...,<cpu number>-<cpu number>
945 This option can be used to specify one or more CPUs
946 to isolate from the general SMP balancing and scheduling
947 algorithms. The only way to move a process onto or off
948 an "isolated" CPU is via the CPU affinity syscalls.
949 <cpu number> begins at 0 and the maximum value is
950 "number of CPUs in system - 1".
952 This option is the preferred way to isolate CPUs. The
953 alternative -- manually setting the CPU mask of all
954 tasks in the system -- can cause problems and
955 suboptimal load balancer performance.

960 See Documentation/input/joystick.txt.
962 kernelcore=nn[KMG] [KNL,X86-32,IA-64,PPC,X86-64] This parameter
963 specifies the amount of memory usable by the kernel
964 for non-movable allocations. The requested amount is
965 spread evenly throughout all nodes in the system. The
966 remaining memory in each node is used for Movable
967 pages. In the event, a node is too small to have both
968 kernelcore and Movable pages, kernelcore pages will
969 take priority and other nodes will have a larger number
970 of kernelcore pages. The Movable zone is used for the
971 allocation of pages that may be reclaimed or moved
972 by the page migration subsystem. This means that
973 HugeTLB pages may not be allocated from this zone.
974 Note that allocations like PTEs-from-HighMem still
975 use the HighMem zone if it exists, and the Normal
978 movablecore=nn[KMG] [KNL,X86-32,IA-64,PPC,X86-64] This parameter
979 is similar to kernelcore except it specifies the
980 amount of memory used for migratable allocations.
981 If both kernelcore and movablecore is specified,
982 then kernelcore will be at *least* the specified
983 value but may be more. If movablecore on its own
984 is specified, the administrator must be careful
985 that the amount of memory usable for all allocations
990 kstack=N [X86-32,X86-64] Print N words from the kernel stack

1012 libata.dma=4 Compact Flash DMA only
1013 Combinations also work, so libata.dma=3 enables DMA
1014 for disks and CDROMs, but not CFs.
1016 libata.noacpi [LIBATA] Disables use of ACPI in libata suspend/resume
1020 libata.force= [LIBATA] Force configurations. The format is comma
1021 separated list of "[ID:]VAL" where ID is
1022 PORT[:DEVICE]. PORT and DEVICE are decimal numbers
1023 matching port, link or device. Basically, it matches
1024 the ATA ID string printed on console by libata. If
1025 the whole ID part is omitted, the last PORT and DEVICE
1026 values are used. If ID hasn't been specified yet, the
1027 configuration applies to all ports, links and devices.
1029 If only DEVICE is omitted, the parameter applies to
1030 the port and all links and devices behind it. DEVICE
1031 number of 0 either selects the first device or the
1032 first fan-out link behind PMP device. It does not
1033 select the host link. DEVICE number of 15 selects the
1034 host link and device attached to it.
1036 The VAL specifies the configuration to force. As long
1037 as there's no ambiguity shortcut notation is allowed.
1038 For example, both 1.5 and 1.5G would work for 1.5Gbps.
1039 The following configurations can be forced.
1041 * Cable type: 40c, 80c, short40c, unk, ign or sata.
1042 Any ID with matching PORT is used.
1044 * SATA link speed limit: 1.5Gbps or 3.0Gbps.
1046 * Transfer mode: pio[0-7], mwdma[0-4] and udma[0-7].
1047 udma[/][16,25,33,44,66,100,133] notation is also
1050 * [no]ncq: Turn on or off NCQ.
1052 If there are multiple matching configurations changing
1053 the same attribute, the last one is used.

1070 logibm.irq= [HW,MOUSE] Logitech Bus Mouse Driver
1073 loglevel= All Kernel Messages with a loglevel smaller than the
1074 console loglevel will be printed to the console. It can
1075 also be changed with klogd or other programs. The
1076 loglevels are defined as follows:
1078 0 (KERN_EMERG) system is unusable
1079 1 (KERN_ALERT) action must be taken immediately
1080 2 (KERN_CRIT) critical conditions
1081 3 (KERN_ERR) error conditions
1082 4 (KERN_WARNING) warning conditions
1083 5 (KERN_NOTICE) normal but significant condition
1084 6 (KERN_INFO) informational
1085 7 (KERN_DEBUG) debug-level messages
1087 log_buf_len=n Sets the size of the printk ring buffer, in bytes.
1088 Format: { n | nk | nM }
1089 n must be a power of two. The default size
1090 is set in the kernel config file.
1092 logo.nologo [FB] Disables display of the built-in Linux logo.
1093 This may be used to provide more screen space for
1094 kernel log messages and is useful when debugging
1095 kernel boot problems.
1097 lp=0 [LP] Specify parallel ports to use, e.g,
1098 lp=port[,port...] lp=none,parport0 (lp0 not configured, lp1 uses
1099 lp=reset first parallel port). 'lp=0' disables the
1100 lp=auto printer driver. 'lp=reset' (which can be
1101 specified in addition to the ports) causes
1102 attached printers to be reset. Using
1103 lp=port1,port2,... specifies the parallel ports
1104 to associate lp devices with, starting with
1105 lp0. A port specification may be 'none' to skip
1106 that lp device, or a parport name such as
1107 'parport0'. Specifying 'lp=auto' instead of a
1108 port specification list means that device IDs
1109 from each port should be examined, to see if
1110 an IEEE 1284-compliant printer is attached; if
1111 so, the driver will manage that printer.
1112 See also header of drivers/char/lp.c.
1115 Sets loops_per_jiffy to given constant, thus avoiding
1116 time-consuming boot-time autodetection (up to 250 ms per
1117 CPU). 0 enables autodetection (default). To determine
1118 the correct value for your kernel, boot with normal
1119 autodetection and see what value is printed. Note that
1120 on SMP systems the preset will be applied to all CPUs,
1121 which is likely to cause problems if your CPUs need
1122 significantly divergent settings. An incorrect value
1123 will cause delays in the kernel to be wrong, leading to
1124 unpredictable I/O errors and other breakage. Although
1125 unlikely, in the extreme case this might damage your

1503 pci=option[,option...] [PCI] various PCI subsystem options:
1504 off [X86-32] don't probe for the PCI bus
1505 bios [X86-32] force use of PCI BIOS, don't access
1506 the hardware directly. Use this if your machine
1507 has a non-standard PCI host bridge.
1508 nobios [X86-32] disallow use of PCI BIOS, only direct
1509 hardware access methods are allowed. Use this
1510 if you experience crashes upon bootup and you
1511 suspect they are caused by the BIOS.
1512 conf1 [X86-32] Force use of PCI Configuration
1514 conf2 [X86-32] Force use of PCI Configuration
1516 noaer [PCIE] If the PCIEAER kernel config parameter is
1517 enabled, this kernel boot option can be used to
1518 disable the use of PCIE advanced error reporting.
1519 nodomains [PCI] Disable support for multiple PCI
1520 root domains (aka PCI segments, in ACPI-speak).
1521 nommconf [X86-32,X86_64] Disable use of MMCONFIG for PCI
1523 nomsi [MSI] If the PCI_MSI kernel config parameter is
1524 enabled, this kernel boot option can be used to
1525 disable the use of MSI interrupts system-wide.
1526 biosirq [X86-32] Use PCI BIOS calls to get the interrupt
1527 routing table. These calls are known to be buggy
1528 on several machines and they hang the machine
1529 when used, but on other computers it's the only
1530 way to get the interrupt routing table. Try
1531 this option if the kernel is unable to allocate
1532 IRQs or discover secondary PCI buses on your
1534 rom [X86-32] Assign address space to expansion ROMs.
1535 Use with caution as certain devices share
1536 address decoders between ROMs and other
1538 irqmask=0xMMMM [X86-32] Set a bit mask of IRQs allowed to be
1539 assigned automatically to PCI devices. You can
1540 make the kernel exclude IRQs of your ISA cards
1542 pirqaddr=0xAAAAA [X86-32] Specify the physical address
1543 of the PIRQ table (normally generated
1544 by the BIOS) if it is outside the
1545 F0000h-100000h range.
1546 lastbus=N [X86-32] Scan all buses thru bus #N. Can be
1547 useful if the kernel is unable to find your
1548 secondary buses and you want to tell it
1549 explicitly which ones they are.
1550 assign-busses [X86-32] Always assign all PCI bus
1551 numbers ourselves, overriding
1552 whatever the firmware may have done.
1553 usepirqmask [X86-32] Honor the possible IRQ mask stored
1554 in the BIOS $PIR table. This is needed on
1555 some systems with broken BIOSes, notably
1556 some HP Pavilion N5400 and Omnibook XE3
1557 notebooks. This will have no effect if ACPI
1558 IRQ routing is enabled.
1559 noacpi [X86-32] Do not use ACPI for IRQ routing
1560 or for PCI scanning.
1561 use_crs [X86-32] Use _CRS for PCI resource
1563 routeirq Do IRQ routing for all PCI devices.
1564 This is normally done in pci_enable_device(),
1565 so this option is a temporary workaround
1566 for broken drivers that don't call it.
1567 skip_isa_align [X86] do not align io start addr, so can
1568 handle more pci cards
1569 firmware [ARM] Do not re-enumerate the bus but instead
1570 just use the configuration from the
1571 bootloader. This is currently used on
1572 IXP2000 systems where the bus has to be
1573 configured a certain way for adjunct CPUs.
1574 noearly [X86] Don't do any early type 1 scanning.
1575 This might help on some broken boards which
1576 machine check when some devices' config space
1577 is read. But various workarounds are disabled
1578 and some IOMMU drivers will not work.
1579 bfsort Sort PCI devices into breadth-first order.
1580 This sorting is done to get a device
1581 order compatible with older (<= 2.4) kernels.
1582 nobfsort Don't sort PCI devices into breadth-first order.
1583 cbiosize=nn[KMG] The fixed amount of bus space which is
1584 reserved for the CardBus bridge's IO window.
1585 The default value is 256 bytes.

2150 for newly-detected USB devices (default 2). This
2151 is the time required before an idle device will be
2152 autosuspended. Devices for which the delay is set
2153 to a negative value won't be autosuspended at all.

2182 passed to the kernel using a special protocol.
2184 vmalloc=nn[KMG] [KNL,BOOT] Forces the vmalloc area to have an exact
2185 size of <nn>. This can be used to increase the
2186 minimum size (128MB on x86). It can also be used to
