254 Some PowerPC chips designed for embedded applications do not have
255 a floating-point unit and therefore do not implement the
256 floating-point instructions in the PowerPC instruction set. If you
257 say Y here, the kernel will include code to emulate a floating-point
258 unit, which will allow programs that use floating-point
261 config 8XX_MINIMAL_FPEMU
262 bool "Minimal math emulation for 8xx"
263 depends on 8xx && !MATH_EMULATION
265 Older arch/ppc kernels still emulated a few floating point
266 instructions such as load and store, even when full math
267 emulation is disabled. Say "Y" here if you want to preserve
270 It is recommended that you build a soft-float userspace instead.
273 bool "Enable IOMMU virtual merging"
277 Cause IO segments sent to a device for DMA to be merged virtually
278 by the IOMMU when they happen to have been allocated contiguously.
279 This doesn't add pressure to the IOMMU allocator. However, some
280 drivers don't support getting large merged segments coming back
283 Most drivers don't have this problem; it is safe to say Y here.

290 depends on NOT_COHERENT_CACHE
293 bool "Support for enabling/disabling CPUs"
294 depends on SMP && HOTPLUG && EXPERIMENTAL && (PPC_PSERIES || PPC_PMAC)
296 Say Y here to be able to disable and re-enable individual
297 CPUs at runtime on SMP machines.
299 Say N if you are unsure.
301 config ARCH_ENABLE_MEMORY_HOTPLUG

307 config ARCH_ENABLE_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE
311 bool "kexec system call (EXPERIMENTAL)"
312 depends on (PPC_PRPMC2800 || PPC_MULTIPLATFORM) && EXPERIMENTAL
314 kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your
315 current kernel, and to start another kernel. It is like a reboot
316 but it is independent of the system firmware. And like a reboot
317 you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.
319 The name comes from the similarity to the exec system call.
321 It is an ongoing process to be certain the hardware in a machine
322 is properly shutdown, so do not be surprised if this code does not
323 initially work for you. It may help to enable device hotplugging
324 support. As of this writing the exact hardware interface is
325 strongly in flux, so no good recommendation can be made.
328 bool "Build a kdump crash kernel"
329 depends on (PPC64 && RELOCATABLE) || 6xx
331 Build a kernel suitable for use as a kdump capture kernel.
332 The same kernel binary can be used as production kernel and dump
336 bool "Hypervisor-assisted dump (EXPERIMENTAL)"
337 depends on PPC_PSERIES && EXPERIMENTAL
339 Hypervisor-assisted dump is meant to be a kdump replacement
340 offering robustness and speed not possible without system
341 hypervisor assistence.

347 default y if PPC_PREP
350 bool "Distribute interrupts on all CPUs by default"
351 depends on SMP && !MV64360
353 This option gives the kernel permission to distribute IRQs across
354 multiple CPUs. Saying N here will route all IRQs to the first
355 CPU. Generally saying Y is safe, although some problems have been
356 reported with SMP Power Macintoshes with this option enabled.

399 config NODES_SPAN_OTHER_NODES
401 depends on NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES
403 config PPC_HAS_HASH_64K
412 Select the kernel logical page size. Increasing the page size
413 will reduce software overhead at each page boundary, allow
414 hardware prefetch mechanisms to be more effective, and allow
415 larger dma transfers increasing IO efficiency and reducing
416 overhead. However the utilization of memory will increase.
417 For example, each cached file will using a multiple of the
418 page size to hold its contents and the difference between the
419 end of file and the end of page is wasted.
421 Some dedicated systems, such as software raid serving with
422 accelerated calculations, have shown significant increases.
424 If you configure a 64 bit kernel for 64k pages but the
425 processor does not support them, then the kernel will simulate
426 them with 4k pages, loading them on demand, but with the
427 reduced software overhead and larger internal fragmentation.
428 For the 32 bit kernel, a large page option will not be offered
429 unless it is supported by the configured processor.
431 If unsure, choose 4K_PAGES.

453 range 7 64 if PPC_STD_MMU_32 && PPC_64K_PAGES
454 default "7" if PPC_STD_MMU_32 && PPC_64K_PAGES
458 The kernel memory allocator divides physically contiguous memory
459 blocks into "zones", where each zone is a power of two number of
460 pages. This option selects the largest power of two that the kernel
461 keeps in the memory allocator. If you need to allocate very large
462 blocks of physically contiguous memory, then you may need to
465 This config option is actually maximum order plus one. For example,
466 a value of 11 means that the largest free memory block is 2^10 pages.
468 The page size is not necessarily 4KB. For example, on 64-bit
469 systems, 64KB pages can be enabled via CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES. Keep
470 this in mind when choosing a value for this option.
472 config PPC_SUBPAGE_PROT
473 bool "Support setting protections for 4k subpages"
474 depends on PPC_STD_MMU_64 && PPC_64K_PAGES
476 This option adds support for a system call to allow user programs
477 to set access permissions (read/write, readonly, or no access)
478 on the 4k subpages of each 64k page.
481 bool "SMT (Hyperthreading) scheduler support"
482 depends on PPC64 && SMP
484 SMT scheduler support improves the CPU scheduler's decision making
485 when dealing with POWER5 cpus at a cost of slightly increased
486 overhead in some places. If unsure say N here.
488 config PROC_DEVICETREE
489 bool "Support for device tree in /proc"
492 This option adds a device-tree directory under /proc which contains
493 an image of the device tree that the kernel copies from Open
494 Firmware or other boot firmware. If unsure, say Y here.
497 bool "Default bootloader kernel arguments"
500 string "Initial kernel command string"
501 depends on CMDLINE_BOOL
502 default "console=ttyS0,9600 console=tty0 root=/dev/sda2"
504 On some platforms, there is currently no way for the boot loader to
505 pass arguments to the kernel. For these platforms, you can supply
506 some command-line options at build time by entering them here. In
507 most cases you will need to specify the root device here.
510 string "Additional default image types"
512 List additional targets to be built by the bootwrapper here (separated
513 by spaces). This is useful for targets that depend of device tree
514 files in the .dts directory.
516 Targets in this list will be build as part of the default build
517 target, or when the user does a 'make zImage' or a
518 'make zImage.initrd'.
520 If unsure, leave blank
523 config ARCH_WANTS_FREEZER_CONTROL
527 source kernel/power/Kconfig
531 bool "Enable seccomp to safely compute untrusted bytecode"
535 This kernel feature is useful for number crunching applications
536 that may need to compute untrusted bytecode during their
537 execution. By using pipes or other transports made available to
538 the process as file descriptors supporting the read/write
539 syscalls, it's possible to isolate those applications in
540 their own address space using seccomp. Once seccomp is
541 enabled via /proc/<pid>/seccomp, it cannot be disabled
542 and the task is only allowed to execute a few safe syscalls
543 defined by each seccomp mode.
545 If unsure, say Y. Only embedded should say N here.
551 default !PPC_ISERIES || PCI
556 bool "Support for ISA-bus hardware"
557 depends on PPC_PREP || PPC_CHRP
560 Find out whether you have ISA slots on your motherboard. ISA is the
561 name of a bus system, i.e. the way the CPU talks to the other stuff
562 inside your box. If you have an Apple machine, say N here; if you
563 have an IBM RS/6000 or pSeries machine or a PReP machine, say Y. If
564 you have an embedded board, consult your board documentation.

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

742 it has been loaded at and the compile time physical addresses
743 CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START is ignored. However CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START
