916 by allocating pages of memory and put them "on hold". This only
917 makes sense for a system running under VM where the unused pages
918 will be reused by VM for other guest systems. The interface
919 allows an external monitor to balance memory of many systems.
920 Everybody who wants to run Linux under VM should select this
925 prompt "IUCV special message interface to cooperative memory management"
926 depends on CMM && (SMSGIUCV=y || CMM=SMSGIUCV)
928 Select this option to enable the special message interface to
929 the cooperative memory management.
933 prompt "Linux - VM Monitor Stream, base infrastructure"
936 This provides a kernel interface for creating and updating z/VM APPLDATA
937 monitor records. The monitor records are updated at certain time
938 intervals, once the timer is started.
939 Writing 1 or 0 to /proc/appldata/timer starts(1) or stops(0) the timer,
940 i.e. enables or disables monitoring on the Linux side.
941 A custom interval value (in seconds) can be written to
942 /proc/appldata/interval.
944 Defaults are 60 seconds interval and timer off.
945 The /proc entries can also be read from, showing the current settings.
949 prompt "Monitor memory management statistics"
950 depends on APPLDATA_BASE && VM_EVENT_COUNTERS
952 This provides memory management related data to the Linux - VM Monitor
953 Stream, like paging/swapping rate, memory utilisation, etc.
954 Writing 1 or 0 to /proc/appldata/memory creates(1) or removes(0) a z/VM
955 APPLDATA monitor record, i.e. enables or disables monitoring this record
959 The /proc entry can also be read from, showing the current settings.
961 This can also be compiled as a module, which will be called
966 prompt "Monitor OS statistics"
967 depends on APPLDATA_BASE
969 This provides OS related data to the Linux - VM Monitor Stream, like
970 CPU utilisation, etc.
971 Writing 1 or 0 to /proc/appldata/os creates(1) or removes(0) a z/VM
972 APPLDATA monitor record, i.e. enables or disables monitoring this record
976 This can also be compiled as a module, which will be called
979 config APPLDATA_NET_SUM
981 prompt "Monitor overall network statistics"
982 depends on APPLDATA_BASE && NET
984 This provides network related data to the Linux - VM Monitor Stream,
985 currently there is only a total sum of network I/O statistics, no
987 Writing 1 or 0 to /proc/appldata/net_sum creates(1) or removes(0) a z/VM
988 APPLDATA monitor record, i.e. enables or disables monitoring this record
992 This can also be compiled as a module, which will be called
997 prompt "s390 hypervisor file system support"
998 select SYS_HYPERVISOR
1000 This is a virtual file system intended to provide accounting
1001 information in an s390 hypervisor environment.
1003 source "arch/s390/kvm/Kconfig"
1007 prompt "s390 support for virtio devices"
1009 select VIRTUALIZATION
1011 select VIRTIO_CONSOLE
1013 Enabling this option adds support for virtio based paravirtual device
1016 Select this option if you want to run the kernel as a guest under
1023 config S390_UNWIND_SELFTEST
1025 prompt "Test unwind functions"
1027 This option enables s390 specific stack unwinder testing kernel
1028 module. This option is not useful for distributions or general
1029 kernels, but only for kernel developers working on architecture code.
1031 Say N if you are unsure.
