137 DMA mapping framework by default aligns all buffers to the smallest
138 PAGE_SIZE order which is greater than or equal to the requested buffer
139 size. This works well for buffers up to a few hundreds kilobytes, but
140 for larger buffers it just a waste of address space. Drivers which has
141 relatively small addressing window (like 64Mib) might run out of
142 virtual space with just a few allocations.
144 With this parameter you can specify the maximum PAGE_SIZE order for
145 DMA IOMMU buffers. Larger buffers will be aligned only to this
146 specified order. The order is expressed as a power of two multiplied

170 The Extended Industry Standard Architecture (EISA) bus was
171 developed as an open alternative to the IBM MicroChannel bus.
173 The EISA bus provided some of the features of the IBM MicroChannel
174 bus while maintaining backward compatibility with cards made for
175 the older ISA bus. The EISA bus saw limited use between 1988 and
176 1995 when it was made obsolete by the PCI bus.
178 Say Y here if you are building a kernel for an EISA-based machine.

952 Executing a SWP instruction to read-only memory does not set bit 11
953 of the FSR on the ARM 1136 prior to r1p0. This causes the kernel to
954 treat the access as a read, preventing a COW from occurring and
955 causing the faulting task to livelock.

961 Invalidation of the Instruction Cache operation can
962 fail. This erratum is present in 1136 (before r1p4), 1156 and 1176.
963 It does not affect the MPCore. This option enables the ARM Ltd.
964 recommended workaround.
966 config ARM_ERRATA_430973
967 bool "ARM errata: Stale prediction on replaced interworking branch"
970 This option enables the workaround for the 430973 Cortex-A8
971 r1p* erratum. If a code sequence containing an ARM/Thumb
972 interworking branch is replaced with another code sequence at the
973 same virtual address, whether due to self-modifying code or virtual
974 to physical address re-mapping, Cortex-A8 does not recover from the
975 stale interworking branch prediction. This results in Cortex-A8
976 executing the new code sequence in the incorrect ARM or Thumb state.
977 The workaround enables the BTB/BTAC operations by setting ACTLR.IBE
978 and also flushes the branch target cache at every context switch.
979 Note that setting specific bits in the ACTLR register may not be
980 available in non-secure mode.
982 config ARM_ERRATA_458693
983 bool "ARM errata: Processor deadlock when a false hazard is created"
985 depends on !ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM
987 This option enables the workaround for the 458693 Cortex-A8 (r2p0)
988 erratum. For very specific sequences of memory operations, it is
989 possible for a hazard condition intended for a cache line to instead
990 be incorrectly associated with a different cache line. This false
991 hazard might then cause a processor deadlock. The workaround enables
992 the L1 caching of the NEON accesses and disables the PLD instruction
993 in the ACTLR register. Note that setting specific bits in the ACTLR
994 register may not be available in non-secure mode.

997 bool "ARM errata: Data written to the L2 cache can be overwritten with stale data"
999 depends on !ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM
1001 This option enables the workaround for the 460075 Cortex-A8 (r2p0)
1002 erratum. Any asynchronous access to the L2 cache may encounter a
1003 situation in which recent store transactions to the L2 cache are lost
1004 and overwritten with stale memory contents from external memory. The
1005 workaround disables the write-allocate mode for the L2 cache via the
1006 ACTLR register. Note that setting specific bits in the ACTLR register
1007 may not be available in non-secure mode.

1014 This option enables the workaround for the 742230 Cortex-A9
1015 (r1p0..r2p2) erratum. Under rare circumstances, a DMB instruction
1016 between two write operations may not ensure the correct visibility
1017 ordering of the two writes. This workaround sets a specific bit in
1018 the diagnostic register of the Cortex-A9 which causes the DMB
1019 instruction to behave as a DSB, ensuring the correct behaviour of

1025 depends on !ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM
1027 This option enables the workaround for the 742231 Cortex-A9
1028 (r2p0..r2p2) erratum. Under certain conditions, specific to the
1029 Cortex-A9 MPCore micro-architecture, two CPUs working in SMP mode,
1030 accessing some data located in the same cache line, may get corrupted
1031 data due to bad handling of the address hazard when the line gets
1032 replaced from one of the CPUs at the same time as another CPU is
1033 accessing it. This workaround sets specific bits in the diagnostic
1034 register of the Cortex-A9 which reduces the linefill issuing
1035 capabilities of the processor.

1038 bool "ARM errata: LoUIS bit field in CLIDR register is incorrect"
1039 depends on CPU_V7 && SMP
1042 This option enables the workaround for the 643719 Cortex-A9 (prior to
1043 r1p0) erratum. On affected cores the LoUIS bit field of the CLIDR
1044 register returns zero when it should return one. The workaround
1045 corrects this value, ensuring cache maintenance operations which use
1046 it behave as intended and avoiding data corruption.
1048 config ARM_ERRATA_720789
1049 bool "ARM errata: TLBIASIDIS and TLBIMVAIS operations can broadcast a faulty ASID"
1052 This option enables the workaround for the 720789 Cortex-A9 (prior to
1053 r2p0) erratum. A faulty ASID can be sent to the other CPUs for the
1054 broadcasted CP15 TLB maintenance operations TLBIASIDIS and TLBIMVAIS.
1055 As a consequence of this erratum, some TLB entries which should be
1056 invalidated are not, resulting in an incoherency in the system page
1057 tables. The workaround changes the TLB flushing routines to invalidate
1058 entries regardless of the ASID.

1066 (r2p*) erratum. Under very rare conditions, a faulty
1067 optimisation in the Cortex-A9 Store Buffer may lead to data
1068 corruption. This workaround sets a specific bit in the diagnostic
1069 register of the Cortex-A9 which disables the Store Buffer
1070 optimisation, preventing the defect from occurring. This has no

1077 depends on !ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM
1079 This option enables the workaround for the 751472 Cortex-A9 (prior
1080 to r3p0) erratum. An interrupted ICIALLUIS operation may prevent the
1081 completion of a following broadcasted operation if the second
1082 operation is received by a CPU before the ICIALLUIS has completed,
1083 potentially leading to corrupted entries in the cache or TLB.
1085 config ARM_ERRATA_754322

1089 This option enables the workaround for the 754322 Cortex-A9 (r2p*,
1090 r3p*) erratum. A speculative memory access may cause a page table walk
1091 which starts prior to an ASID switch but completes afterwards. This
1092 can populate the micro-TLB with a stale entry which may be hit with
1093 the new ASID. This workaround places two dsb instructions in the mm
1094 switching code so that no page table walks can cross the ASID switch.
1096 config ARM_ERRATA_754327
1097 bool "ARM errata: no automatic Store Buffer drain"
1098 depends on CPU_V7 && SMP
1100 This option enables the workaround for the 754327 Cortex-A9 (prior to
1101 r2p0) erratum. The Store Buffer does not have any automatic draining
1102 mechanism and therefore a livelock may occur if an external agent
1103 continuously polls a memory location waiting to observe an update.
1104 This workaround defines cpu_relax() as smp_mb(), preventing correctly
1105 written polling loops from denying visibility of updates to memory.

1111 This options enables the workaround for the 364296 ARM1136
1112 r0p2 erratum (possible cache data corruption with
1113 hit-under-miss enabled). It sets the undocumented bit 31 in
1114 the auxiliary control register and the FI bit in the control

1124 affecting Cortex-A9 MPCore with two or more processors (all
1125 current revisions). Under certain timing circumstances, a data
1126 cache line maintenance operation by MVA targeting an Inner
1127 Shareable memory region may fail to proceed up to either the
1128 Point of Coherency or to the Point of Unification of the
1129 system. This workaround adds a DSB instruction before the
1130 relevant cache maintenance functions and sets a specific bit
1131 in the diagnostic control register of the SCU.

1137 This option enables the workaround for the 775420 Cortex-A9 (r2p2,
1138 r2p6,r2p8,r2p10,r3p0) erratum. In case a date cache maintenance
1139 operation aborts with MMU exception, it might cause the processor

1147 On Cortex-A15 (r0p0..r3p2) the TLBI*IS/DSB operations are not
1148 adequately shooting down all use of the old entries. This

1168 instruction might deadlock. Fixed in r0p1.
1169 - Cortex-A12 852422: Execution of a sequence of instructions might
1170 lead to either a data corruption or a CPU deadlock. Not fixed in
1171 any Cortex-A12 cores yet.
1172 This workaround for all both errata involves setting bit[12] of the

1181 (all revs) erratum. In very rare timing conditions, a sequence
1182 of VMOV to Core registers instructions, for which the second

1594 space environment that is also compiled with EABI.
1596 Since there are major incompatibilities between the legacy ABI and

1615 The seccomp filter system will not be available when this is
1616 selected, since there is no way yet to sensibly distinguish
1617 between calling conventions during filtering.

1645 bool "High Memory Support"
1648 The address space of ARM processors is only 4 Gigabytes large
1649 and it has to accommodate user address space, kernel address
1650 space as well as some memory mapped IO. That means that, if you
1651 have a large amount of physical memory and/or IO, not all of the
1652 memory can be "permanently mapped" by the kernel. The physical
1653 memory that is not permanently mapped is called "high memory".
1655 Depending on the selected kernel/user memory split, minimum
1656 vmalloc space and actual amount of RAM, you may not need this
1657 option which should result in a slightly faster kernel.
1662 bool "Allocate 2nd-level pagetables from highmem" if EXPERT
1666 The VM uses one page of physical memory for each page table.
1667 For systems with a lot of processes, this can use a lot of
1668 precious low memory, eventually leading to low memory being
1669 consumed by page tables. Setting this option will allow
1670 user-space 2nd level page tables to reside in high memory.

1678 are unable to access userspace addresses. This can help prevent
1679 use-after-free bugs becoming an exploitable privilege escalation
1680 by ensuring that magic values (such as LIST_POISON) will always
1681 fault when dereferenced.
1683 CPUs with low-vector mappings use a best-efforts implementation.
1684 Their lower 1MB needs to remain accessible for the vectors, but

1706 Allocate PLTs when loading modules so that jumps and calls whose
1707 targets are too far away for their relative offsets to be encoded
1708 in the instructions themselves can be bounced via veneers in the
1709 module's PLT. This allows modules to be allocated in the generic
1710 vmalloc area after the dedicated module memory area has been
1711 exhausted. The modules will use slightly more memory, but after
1712 rounding up to page size, the actual memory footprint is usually

1720 int "Maximum zone order"

1725 The kernel memory allocator divides physically contiguous memory
1726 blocks into "zones", where each zone is a power of two number of
1727 pages. This option selects the largest power of two that the kernel
1728 keeps in the memory allocator. If you need to allocate very large
1729 blocks of physically contiguous memory, then you may need to
1730 increase this value.
1732 This config option is actually maximum order plus one. For example,
1733 a value of 11 means that the largest free memory block is 2^10 pages.

1739 select HAVE_PROC_CPU if PROC_FS
1741 ARM processors cannot fetch/store information which is not
1742 naturally aligned on the bus, i.e., a 4 byte fetch must start at an
1743 address divisible by 4. On 32-bit ARM processors, these non-aligned
1744 fetch/store instructions will be emulated in software if you say
1745 here, which has a severe performance impact. This is necessary for
1746 correct operation of some network protocols. With an IP-only
1747 configuration it is safe to say N, otherwise say Y.
1749 config UACCESS_WITH_MEMCPY
1750 bool "Use kernel mem{cpy,set}() for {copy_to,clear}_user()"
1752 default y if CPU_FEROCEON
1754 Implement faster copy_to_user and clear_user methods for CPU
1755 cores where a 8-word STM instruction give significantly higher
1756 memory write throughput than a sequence of individual 32bit stores.
1758 A possible side effect is a slight increase in scheduling latency
1759 between threads sharing the same address space if they invoke
1760 such copy operations with large buffers.
1762 However, if the CPU data cache is using a write-allocate mode,
1763 this option is unlikely to provide any performance gain.
1767 prompt "Enable seccomp to safely compute untrusted bytecode"
1769 This kernel feature is useful for number crunching applications
1770 that may need to compute untrusted bytecode during their
1771 execution. By using pipes or other transports made available to
1772 the process as file descriptors supporting the read/write
1773 syscalls, it's possible to isolate those applications in
1774 their own address space using seccomp. Once seccomp is
1775 enabled via prctl(PR_SET_SECCOMP), it cannot be disabled
1776 and the task is only allowed to execute a few safe syscalls
1777 defined by each seccomp mode.
1786 bool "Enable paravirtualization code"

1793 bool "Paravirtual steal time accounting"
1797 Select this option to enable fine granularity task steal time
1798 accounting. Time spent executing other tasks in parallel with
1799 the current vCPU is discounted from the vCPU power. To account for
1800 that, there can be a small performance impact.

1868 decompressor is running. It must be large enough to hold the
1869 entire decompressed kernel plus an additional 128 KiB.

1880 Say Y here if you intend to execute your compressed kernel image
1881 (zImage) directly from ROM or flash. If unsure, say N.
1883 config ARM_APPENDED_DTB
1884 bool "Use appended device tree blob to zImage (EXPERIMENTAL)"
1887 With this option, the boot code will look for a device tree binary
1888 (DTB) appended to zImage
1889 (e.g. cat zImage <filename>.dtb > zImage_w_dtb).
1891 This is meant as a backward compatibility convenience for those
1892 systems with a bootloader that can't be upgraded to accommodate
1893 the documented boot protocol using a device tree.
1895 Beware that there is very little in terms of protection against
1896 this option being confused by leftover garbage in memory that might
1897 look like a DTB header after a reboot if no actual DTB is appended
1898 to zImage. Do not leave this option active in a production kernel
1899 if you don't intend to always append a DTB. Proper passing of the
1900 location into r2 of a bootloader provided DTB is always preferable
1903 config ARM_ATAG_DTB_COMPAT
1904 bool "Supplement the appended DTB with traditional ATAG information"
1905 depends on ARM_APPENDED_DTB
1907 Some old bootloaders can't be updated to a DTB capable one, yet
1908 they provide ATAGs with memory configuration, the ramdisk address,
1909 the kernel cmdline string, etc. Such information is dynamically
1910 provided by the bootloader and can't always be stored in a static
1911 DTB. To allow a device tree enabled kernel to be used with such
1912 bootloaders, this option allows zImage to extract the information
1913 from the ATAG list and store it at run time into the appended DTB.

1935 string "Default kernel command string"
1938 On some architectures (EBSA110 and CATS), there is currently no way
1939 for the boot loader to pass arguments to the kernel. For these
1940 architectures, you should supply some command-line options at build
1941 time by entering them here. As a minimum, you should specify the
1942 memory size and the root device (e.g., mem=64M root=/dev/nfs).

1954 string provided in CMDLINE will be used.
1956 config CMDLINE_EXTEND
1957 bool "Extend bootloader kernel arguments"
1959 The command-line arguments provided by the boot loader will be

1962 config CMDLINE_FORCE
1963 bool "Always use the default kernel command string"
1965 Always use the default kernel command string, even if the boot

1968 command-line options your boot loader passes to the kernel.
1972 bool "Kernel Execute-In-Place from ROM"
1973 depends on !ARM_LPAE && !ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM
1975 Execute-In-Place allows the kernel to run from non-volatile storage
1976 directly addressable by the CPU, such as NOR flash. This saves RAM
1977 space since the text section of the kernel is not loaded from flash
1978 to RAM. Read-write sections, such as the data section and stack,
1979 are still copied to RAM. The XIP kernel is not compressed since
1980 it has to run directly from flash, so it will take more space to
1981 store it. The flash address used to link the kernel object files,
1982 and for storing it, is configuration dependent. Therefore, if you
1983 say Y here, you must know the proper physical address where to
1984 store the kernel image depending on your own flash memory usage.
1986 Also note that the make target becomes "make xipImage" rather than
1987 "make zImage" or "make Image". The final kernel binary to put in
1988 ROM memory will be arch/arm/boot/xipImage.

2001 config XIP_DEFLATED_DATA
2002 bool "Store kernel .data section compressed in ROM"
2003 depends on XIP_KERNEL
2006 Before the kernel is actually executed, its .data section has to be
2007 copied to RAM from ROM. This option allows for storing that data
2008 in compressed form and decompressed to RAM rather than merely being
2009 copied, saving some precious ROM space. A possible drawback is a
2010 slightly longer boot delay.
2013 bool "Kexec system call (EXPERIMENTAL)"
2014 depends on (!SMP || PM_SLEEP_SMP)
2018 kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your
2019 current kernel, and to start another kernel. It is like a reboot
2020 but it is independent of the system firmware. And like a reboot
2021 you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.
2023 It is an ongoing process to be certain the hardware in a machine
2024 is properly shutdown, so do not be surprised if this code does not
2025 initially work for you.
2028 bool "Export atags in procfs"
2029 depends on ATAGS && KEXEC
2032 Should the atags used to boot the kernel be exported in an "atags"
2033 file in procfs. Useful with kexec.
2036 bool "Build kdump crash kernel (EXPERIMENTAL)"
2038 Generate crash dump after being started by kexec. This should
2039 be normally only set in special crash dump kernels which are
2040 loaded in the main kernel with kexec-tools into a specially
2041 reserved region and then later executed after a crash by
2042 kdump/kexec. The crash dump kernel must be compiled to a
2043 memory address not used by the main kernel
2045 For more details see Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt
2047 config AUTO_ZRELADDR
2048 bool "Auto calculation of the decompressed kernel image address"
2050 ZRELADDR is the physical address where the decompressed kernel
2051 image will be placed. If AUTO_ZRELADDR is selected, the address
2052 will be determined at run-time by masking the current IP with
2053 0xf8000000. This assumes the zImage being placed in the first 128MB
2054 from start of memory.

2063 select EFI_PARAMS_FROM_FDT
2066 select EFI_RUNTIME_WRAPPERS
2068 This option provides support for runtime services provided
2069 by UEFI firmware (such as non-volatile variables, realtime
2070 clock, and platform reset). A UEFI stub is also provided to
2071 allow the kernel to be booted as an EFI application. This
2072 is only useful for kernels that may run on systems that have
2076 bool "Enable support for SMBIOS (DMI) tables"
2080 This enables SMBIOS/DMI feature for systems.
2082 This option is only useful on systems that have UEFI firmware.
2083 However, even with this option, the resultant kernel should
2084 continue to boot on existing non-UEFI platforms.
2086 NOTE: This does *NOT* enable or encourage the use of DMI quirks,
2087 i.e., the the practice of identifying the platform via DMI to
2088 decide whether certain workarounds for buggy hardware and/or
2089 firmware need to be enabled. This would require the DMI subsystem
2090 to be enabled much earlier than we do on ARM, which is non-trivial.

2124 Note that gcc does not generate 80-bit operations by default,

2137 It is very simple, and approximately 3-6 times faster than NWFPE.
