298 Some PowerPC chips designed for embedded applications do not have
299 a floating-point unit and therefore do not implement the
300 floating-point instructions in the PowerPC instruction set. If you
301 say Y here, the kernel will include code to emulate a floating-point

305 config 8XX_MINIMAL_FPEMU

310 instructions such as load and store, even when full math

324 Support for IO bounce buffering for systems without an IOMMU.
325 This allows us to DMA to the full physical address space on

327 than the bus address. Not all platforms support this.

352 bool "kexec system call (EXPERIMENTAL)"
353 depends on PPC_BOOK3S && EXPERIMENTAL
355 kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your
356 current kernel, and to start another kernel. It is like a reboot
357 but it is independent of the system firmware. And like a reboot
358 you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.
360 The name comes from the similarity to the exec system call.
362 It is an ongoing process to be certain the hardware in a machine
363 is properly shutdown, so do not be surprised if this code does not
364 initially work for you. It may help to enable device hotplugging
365 support. As of this writing the exact hardware interface is
366 strongly in flux, so no good recommendation can be made.

378 bool "Hypervisor-assisted dump (EXPERIMENTAL)"

381 Hypervisor-assisted dump is meant to be a kdump replacement
382 offering robustness and speed not possible without system

392 bool "Distribute interrupts on all CPUs by default"
393 depends on SMP && !MV64360
395 This option gives the kernel permission to distribute IRQs across
396 multiple CPUs. Saying N here will route all IRQs to the first
397 CPU. Generally saying Y is safe, although some problems have been
398 reported with SMP Power Macintoshes with this option enabled.
401 bool "Support sparse irq numbering"
404 This enables support for sparse irqs. This is useful for distro
405 kernels that want to define a high CONFIG_NR_CPUS value but still
406 want to have low kernel memory footprint on smaller machines.
408 ( Sparse IRQs can also be beneficial on NUMA boxes, as they spread
409 out the irq_desc[] array in a more NUMA-friendly way. )

468 config PPC_HAS_HASH_64K
474 bool "Using standard binutils settings"
478 Turning this option off allows you to select 256KB PAGE_SIZE on 44x.
479 Note, that kernel will be able to run only those applications,
480 which had been compiled using binutils later than 2.17.50.0.3 with
481 '-zmax-page-size' set to 256K (the default is 64K). Or, if using
482 the older binutils, you can patch them with a trivial patch, which
483 changes the ELF_MAXPAGESIZE definition from 0x10000 to 0x40000.
489 Select the kernel logical page size. Increasing the page size
490 will reduce software overhead at each page boundary, allow
491 hardware prefetch mechanisms to be more effective, and allow
492 larger dma transfers increasing IO efficiency and reducing
493 overhead. However the utilization of memory will increase.
494 For example, each cached file will using a multiple of the
495 page size to hold its contents and the difference between the
496 end of file and the end of page is wasted.
498 Some dedicated systems, such as software raid serving with
499 accelerated calculations, have shown significant increases.
501 If you configure a 64 bit kernel for 64k pages but the
502 processor does not support them, then the kernel will simulate
503 them with 4k pages, loading them on demand, but with the
504 reduced software overhead and larger internal fragmentation.
505 For the 32 bit kernel, a large page option will not be offered
506 unless it is supported by the configured processor.
508 If unsure, choose 4K_PAGES.

522 depends on !STDBINUTILS
524 Make the page size 256k.
526 As the ELF standard only requires alignment to support page
527 sizes up to 64k, you will need to compile all of your user
528 space applications with a non-standard binutils settings
529 (see the STDBINUTILS description for details).
531 Say N unless you know what you are doing.

545 range 5 64 if PPC32 && PPC_256K_PAGES
546 default "5" if PPC32 && PPC_256K_PAGES
550 The kernel memory allocator divides physically contiguous memory
551 blocks into "zones", where each zone is a power of two number of
552 pages. This option selects the largest power of two that the kernel
553 keeps in the memory allocator. If you need to allocate very large
554 blocks of physically contiguous memory, then you may need to
557 This config option is actually maximum order plus one. For example,
558 a value of 11 means that the largest free memory block is 2^10 pages.
560 The page size is not necessarily 4KB. For example, on 64-bit
561 systems, 64KB pages can be enabled via CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES. Keep
562 this in mind when choosing a value for this option.
564 config PPC_SUBPAGE_PROT
565 bool "Support setting protections for 4k subpages"
566 depends on PPC_STD_MMU_64 && PPC_64K_PAGES
568 This option adds support for a system call to allow user programs
569 to set access permissions (read/write, readonly, or no access)
570 on the 4k subpages of each 64k page.
573 bool "SMT (Hyperthreading) scheduler support"
574 depends on PPC64 && SMP
576 SMT scheduler support improves the CPU scheduler's decision making
577 when dealing with POWER5 cpus at a cost of slightly increased
578 overhead in some places. If unsure say N here.
580 config PROC_DEVICETREE
581 bool "Support for device tree in /proc"
584 This option adds a device-tree directory under /proc which contains
585 an image of the device tree that the kernel copies from Open
586 Firmware or other boot firmware. If unsure, say Y here.

592 string "Initial kernel command string"

596 On some platforms, there is currently no way for the boot loader to
597 pass arguments to the kernel. For these platforms, you can supply
598 some command-line options at build time by entering them here. In
599 most cases you will need to specify the root device here.
602 string "Additional default image types"
604 List additional targets to be built by the bootwrapper here (separated
605 by spaces). This is useful for targets that depend of device tree
606 files in the .dts directory.
608 Targets in this list will be build as part of the default build
609 target, or when the user does a 'make zImage' or a
610 'make zImage.initrd'.
612 If unsure, leave blank
615 config ARCH_WANTS_FREEZER_CONTROL

623 bool "Enable seccomp to safely compute untrusted bytecode"
627 This kernel feature is useful for number crunching applications
628 that may need to compute untrusted bytecode during their
629 execution. By using pipes or other transports made available to
630 the process as file descriptors supporting the read/write
631 syscalls, it's possible to isolate those applications in
632 their own address space using seccomp. Once seccomp is
633 enabled via /proc/<pid>/seccomp, it cannot be disabled
634 and the task is only allowed to execute a few safe syscalls
635 defined by each seccomp mode.
637 If unsure, say Y. Only embedded should say N here.
