916 to reduce the memory size of the system. This is accomplished
917 by allocating pages of memory and put them "on hold". This only
918 makes sense for a system running under VM where the unused pages
919 will be reused by VM for other guest systems. The interface
920 allows an external monitor to balance memory of many systems.
921 Everybody who wants to run Linux under VM should select this
926 prompt "IUCV special message interface to cooperative memory management"
927 depends on CMM && (SMSGIUCV=y || CMM=SMSGIUCV)
929 Select this option to enable the special message interface to
930 the cooperative memory management.
934 prompt "Linux - VM Monitor Stream, base infrastructure"
937 This provides a kernel interface for creating and updating z/VM APPLDATA
938 monitor records. The monitor records are updated at certain time
939 intervals, once the timer is started.
940 Writing 1 or 0 to /proc/appldata/timer starts(1) or stops(0) the timer,
941 i.e. enables or disables monitoring on the Linux side.
942 A custom interval value (in seconds) can be written to
943 /proc/appldata/interval.
945 Defaults are 60 seconds interval and timer off.
946 The /proc entries can also be read from, showing the current settings.
950 prompt "Monitor memory management statistics"
951 depends on APPLDATA_BASE && VM_EVENT_COUNTERS
953 This provides memory management related data to the Linux - VM Monitor
954 Stream, like paging/swapping rate, memory utilisation, etc.
955 Writing 1 or 0 to /proc/appldata/memory creates(1) or removes(0) a z/VM
956 APPLDATA monitor record, i.e. enables or disables monitoring this record
960 The /proc entry can also be read from, showing the current settings.
962 This can also be compiled as a module, which will be called
967 prompt "Monitor OS statistics"
968 depends on APPLDATA_BASE
970 This provides OS related data to the Linux - VM Monitor Stream, like
971 CPU utilisation, etc.
972 Writing 1 or 0 to /proc/appldata/os creates(1) or removes(0) a z/VM
973 APPLDATA monitor record, i.e. enables or disables monitoring this record
977 This can also be compiled as a module, which will be called
980 config APPLDATA_NET_SUM
982 prompt "Monitor overall network statistics"
983 depends on APPLDATA_BASE && NET
985 This provides network related data to the Linux - VM Monitor Stream,
986 currently there is only a total sum of network I/O statistics, no
988 Writing 1 or 0 to /proc/appldata/net_sum creates(1) or removes(0) a z/VM
989 APPLDATA monitor record, i.e. enables or disables monitoring this record
993 This can also be compiled as a module, which will be called
998 prompt "s390 hypervisor file system support"
999 select SYS_HYPERVISOR
1001 This is a virtual file system intended to provide accounting
1002 information in an s390 hypervisor environment.
1004 source "arch/s390/kvm/Kconfig"
1008 prompt "s390 support for virtio devices"
1010 select VIRTUALIZATION
1012 select VIRTIO_CONSOLE
1014 Enabling this option adds support for virtio based paravirtual device
1017 Select this option if you want to run the kernel as a guest under
1024 config S390_UNWIND_SELFTEST
1026 prompt "Test unwind functions"
1028 This option enables s390 specific stack unwinder testing kernel
1029 module. This option is not useful for distributions or general
1030 kernels, but only for kernel developers working on architecture code.
1032 Say N if you are unsure.
