916 makes sense for a system running under VM where the unused pages
917 will be reused by VM for other guest systems. The interface
918 allows an external monitor to balance memory of many systems.
919 Everybody who wants to run Linux under VM should select this
924 prompt "IUCV special message interface to cooperative memory management"
925 depends on CMM && (SMSGIUCV=y || CMM=SMSGIUCV)
927 Select this option to enable the special message interface to
928 the cooperative memory management.
932 prompt "Linux - VM Monitor Stream, base infrastructure"
935 This provides a kernel interface for creating and updating z/VM APPLDATA
936 monitor records. The monitor records are updated at certain time
937 intervals, once the timer is started.
938 Writing 1 or 0 to /proc/appldata/timer starts(1) or stops(0) the timer,
939 i.e. enables or disables monitoring on the Linux side.
940 A custom interval value (in seconds) can be written to
941 /proc/appldata/interval.
943 Defaults are 60 seconds interval and timer off.
944 The /proc entries can also be read from, showing the current settings.
948 prompt "Monitor memory management statistics"
949 depends on APPLDATA_BASE && VM_EVENT_COUNTERS
951 This provides memory management related data to the Linux - VM Monitor
952 Stream, like paging/swapping rate, memory utilisation, etc.
953 Writing 1 or 0 to /proc/appldata/memory creates(1) or removes(0) a z/VM
954 APPLDATA monitor record, i.e. enables or disables monitoring this record
958 The /proc entry can also be read from, showing the current settings.
960 This can also be compiled as a module, which will be called
965 prompt "Monitor OS statistics"
966 depends on APPLDATA_BASE
968 This provides OS related data to the Linux - VM Monitor Stream, like
969 CPU utilisation, etc.
970 Writing 1 or 0 to /proc/appldata/os creates(1) or removes(0) a z/VM
971 APPLDATA monitor record, i.e. enables or disables monitoring this record
975 This can also be compiled as a module, which will be called
978 config APPLDATA_NET_SUM
980 prompt "Monitor overall network statistics"
981 depends on APPLDATA_BASE && NET
983 This provides network related data to the Linux - VM Monitor Stream,
984 currently there is only a total sum of network I/O statistics, no
986 Writing 1 or 0 to /proc/appldata/net_sum creates(1) or removes(0) a z/VM
987 APPLDATA monitor record, i.e. enables or disables monitoring this record
991 This can also be compiled as a module, which will be called
996 prompt "s390 hypervisor file system support"
997 select SYS_HYPERVISOR
999 This is a virtual file system intended to provide accounting
1000 information in an s390 hypervisor environment.
1002 source "arch/s390/kvm/Kconfig"
1006 prompt "s390 support for virtio devices"
1008 select VIRTUALIZATION
1010 select VIRTIO_CONSOLE
1012 Enabling this option adds support for virtio based paravirtual device
1015 Select this option if you want to run the kernel as a guest under
1022 config S390_UNWIND_SELFTEST
1024 prompt "Test unwind functions"
1026 This option enables s390 specific stack unwinder testing kernel
1027 module. This option is not useful for distributions or general
1028 kernels, but only for kernel developers working on architecture code.
1030 Say N if you are unsure.
