67 The Extended Industry Standard Architecture (EISA) bus was
68 developed as an open alternative to the IBM MicroChannel bus.
70 The EISA bus provided some of the features of the IBM MicroChannel
71 bus while maintaining backward compatibility with cards made for
72 the older ISA bus. The EISA bus saw limited use between 1988 and
73 1995 when it was made obsolete by the PCI bus.
75 Say Y here if you are building a kernel for an EISA-based machine.
85 MicroChannel Architecture is found in some IBM PS/2 machines and
86 laptops. It is a bus system similar to PCI or ISA. See

912 config ARM_ERRATA_430973
913 bool "ARM errata: Stale prediction on replaced interworking branch"
916 This option enables the workaround for the 430973 Cortex-A8
917 (r1p0..r1p2) erratum. If a code sequence containing an ARM/Thumb
918 interworking branch is replaced with another code sequence at the
919 same virtual address, whether due to self-modifying code or virtual
920 to physical address re-mapping, Cortex-A8 does not recover from the
921 stale interworking branch prediction. This results in Cortex-A8
922 executing the new code sequence in the incorrect ARM or Thumb state.
923 The workaround enables the BTB/BTAC operations by setting ACTLR.IBE
924 and also flushes the branch target cache at every context switch.
925 Note that setting specific bits in the ACTLR register may not be
926 available in non-secure mode.

929 bool "ARM errata: Processor deadlock when a false hazard is created"
932 This option enables the workaround for the 458693 Cortex-A8 (r2p0)
933 erratum. For very specific sequences of memory operations, it is
934 possible for a hazard condition intended for a cache line to instead
935 be incorrectly associated with a different cache line. This false
936 hazard might then cause a processor deadlock. The workaround enables
937 the L1 caching of the NEON accesses and disables the PLD instruction
938 in the ACTLR register. Note that setting specific bits in the ACTLR
939 register may not be available in non-secure mode.
941 config ARM_ERRATA_460075
942 bool "ARM errata: Data written to the L2 cache can be overwritten with stale data"
945 This option enables the workaround for the 460075 Cortex-A8 (r2p0)
946 erratum. Any asynchronous access to the L2 cache may encounter a
947 situation in which recent store transactions to the L2 cache are lost
948 and overwritten with stale memory contents from external memory. The
949 workaround disables the write-allocate mode for the L2 cache via the
950 ACTLR register. Note that setting specific bits in the ACTLR register
951 may not be available in non-secure mode.
953 config PL310_ERRATA_588369
954 bool "Clean & Invalidate maintenance operations do not invalidate clean lines"

957 The PL310 L2 cache controller implements three types of Clean &
958 Invalidate maintenance operations: by Physical Address
959 (offset 0x7F0), by Index/Way (0x7F8) and by Way (0x7FC).
960 They are architecturally defined to behave as the execution of a
961 clean operation followed immediately by an invalidate operation,
962 both performing to the same memory location. This functionality
963 is not correctly implemented in PL310 as clean lines are not
964 invalidated as a result of these operations. Note that this errata
965 uses Texas Instrument's secure monitor api.

1141 bool "Use the ARM EABI to compile the kernel"
1143 This option allows for the kernel to be compiled using the latest
1144 ARM ABI (aka EABI). This is only useful if you are using a user
1145 space environment that is also compiled with EABI.
1147 Since there are major incompatibilities between the legacy ABI and
1148 EABI, especially with regard to structure member alignment, this
1149 option also changes the kernel syscall calling convention to
1150 disambiguate both ABIs and allow for backward compatibility support
1151 (selected with CONFIG_OABI_COMPAT).
1153 To use this you need GCC version 4.0.0 or later.
1156 bool "Allow old ABI binaries to run with this kernel (EXPERIMENTAL)"
1157 depends on AEABI && EXPERIMENTAL
1160 This option preserves the old syscall interface along with the
1161 new (ARM EABI) one. It also provides a compatibility layer to
1162 intercept syscalls that have structure arguments which layout
1163 in memory differs between the legacy ABI and the new ARM EABI
1164 (only for non "thumb" binaries). This option adds a tiny
1165 overhead to all syscalls and produces a slightly larger kernel.
1166 If you know you'll be using only pure EABI user space then you
1167 can say N here. If this option is not selected and you attempt
1168 to execute a legacy ABI binary then the result will be
1169 UNPREDICTABLE (in fact it can be predicted that it won't work

1198 The address space of ARM processors is only 4 Gigabytes large

1200 space as well as some memory mapped IO. That means that, if you
1201 have a large amount of physical memory and/or IO, not all of the
1202 memory can be "permanently mapped" by the kernel. The physical
1203 memory that is not permanently mapped is called "high memory".

1241 you are compiling a kernel for the EBSA-110 or the LART however, the

1258 debugging unstable kernels.

1285 ARM processors cannot fetch/store information which is not

1288 fetch/store instructions will be emulated in software if you say
1289 here, which has a severe performance impact. This is necessary for
1290 correct operation of some network protocols. With an IP-only

1302 A possible side effect is a slight increase in scheduling latency
1303 between threads sharing the same address space if they invoke
1304 such copy operations with large buffers.
1306 However, if the CPU data cache is using a write-allocate mode,
1307 this option is unlikely to provide any performance gain.

1333 entire decompressed kernel plus an additional 128 KiB.
1334 Platforms which normally make use of ROM-able zImage formats

1347 string "Default kernel command string"
1350 On some architectures (EBSA110 and CATS), there is currently no way
1351 for the boot loader to pass arguments to the kernel. For these
1352 architectures, you should supply some command-line options at build
1353 time by entering them here. As a minimum, you should specify the
1354 memory size and the root device (e.g., mem=64M root=/dev/nfs).
1357 bool "Kernel Execute-In-Place from ROM"
1358 depends on !ZBOOT_ROM
1360 Execute-In-Place allows the kernel to run from non-volatile storage
1361 directly addressable by the CPU, such as NOR flash. This saves RAM
1362 space since the text section of the kernel is not loaded from flash
1363 to RAM. Read-write sections, such as the data section and stack,
1364 are still copied to RAM. The XIP kernel is not compressed since
1365 it has to run directly from flash, so it will take more space to
1366 store it. The flash address used to link the kernel object files,
1367 and for storing it, is configuration dependent. Therefore, if you
1368 say Y here, you must know the proper physical address where to
1369 store the kernel image depending on your own flash memory usage.
1371 Also note that the make target becomes "make xipImage" rather than
1372 "make zImage" or "make Image". The final kernel binary to put in
1373 ROM memory will be arch/arm/boot/xipImage.

1517 Note that gcc does not generate 80-bit operations by default,
