138 DMA mapping framework by default aligns all buffers to the smallest
139 PAGE_SIZE order which is greater than or equal to the requested buffer
140 size. This works well for buffers up to a few hundreds kilobytes, but
141 for larger buffers it just a waste of address space. Drivers which has
142 relatively small addressing window (like 64Mib) might run out of
143 virtual space with just a few allocations.
145 With this parameter you can specify the maximum PAGE_SIZE order for
146 DMA IOMMU buffers. Larger buffers will be aligned only to this
147 specified order. The order is expressed as a power of two multiplied

171 The Extended Industry Standard Architecture (EISA) bus was
172 developed as an open alternative to the IBM MicroChannel bus.
174 The EISA bus provided some of the features of the IBM MicroChannel
175 bus while maintaining backward compatibility with cards made for
176 the older ISA bus. The EISA bus saw limited use between 1988 and
177 1995 when it was made obsolete by the PCI bus.
179 Say Y here if you are building a kernel for an EISA-based machine.

935 the retiring WFI/WFE instructions and the newly issued subsequent
936 instructions. This sensitivity can result in a CPU hang scenario.

943 bool "ARM errata: FSR write bit incorrect on a SWP to read-only memory"
946 Executing a SWP instruction to read-only memory does not set bit 11
947 of the FSR on the ARM 1136 prior to r1p0. This causes the kernel to
948 treat the access as a read, preventing a COW from occurring and
949 causing the faulting task to livelock.

952 bool "ARM errata: Invalidation of the Instruction Cache operation can fail"
953 depends on CPU_V6 || CPU_V6K
955 Invalidation of the Instruction Cache operation can
956 fail. This erratum is present in 1136 (before r1p4), 1156 and 1176.
957 It does not affect the MPCore. This option enables the ARM Ltd.
958 recommended workaround.
960 config ARM_ERRATA_430973
961 bool "ARM errata: Stale prediction on replaced interworking branch"
964 This option enables the workaround for the 430973 Cortex-A8
965 r1p* erratum. If a code sequence containing an ARM/Thumb
966 interworking branch is replaced with another code sequence at the
967 same virtual address, whether due to self-modifying code or virtual
968 to physical address re-mapping, Cortex-A8 does not recover from the
969 stale interworking branch prediction. This results in Cortex-A8
970 executing the new code sequence in the incorrect ARM or Thumb state.
971 The workaround enables the BTB/BTAC operations by setting ACTLR.IBE
972 and also flushes the branch target cache at every context switch.
973 Note that setting specific bits in the ACTLR register may not be
974 available in non-secure mode.
976 config ARM_ERRATA_458693
977 bool "ARM errata: Processor deadlock when a false hazard is created"
979 depends on !ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM
981 This option enables the workaround for the 458693 Cortex-A8 (r2p0)
982 erratum. For very specific sequences of memory operations, it is
983 possible for a hazard condition intended for a cache line to instead
984 be incorrectly associated with a different cache line. This false
985 hazard might then cause a processor deadlock. The workaround enables
986 the L1 caching of the NEON accesses and disables the PLD instruction
987 in the ACTLR register. Note that setting specific bits in the ACTLR
988 register may not be available in non-secure mode.
990 config ARM_ERRATA_460075
991 bool "ARM errata: Data written to the L2 cache can be overwritten with stale data"
993 depends on !ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM
995 This option enables the workaround for the 460075 Cortex-A8 (r2p0)
996 erratum. Any asynchronous access to the L2 cache may encounter a
997 situation in which recent store transactions to the L2 cache are lost
998 and overwritten with stale memory contents from external memory. The
999 workaround disables the write-allocate mode for the L2 cache via the
1000 ACTLR register. Note that setting specific bits in the ACTLR register
1001 may not be available in non-secure mode.

1006 depends on !ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM
1008 This option enables the workaround for the 742230 Cortex-A9
1009 (r1p0..r2p2) erratum. Under rare circumstances, a DMB instruction
1010 between two write operations may not ensure the correct visibility
1011 ordering of the two writes. This workaround sets a specific bit in
1012 the diagnostic register of the Cortex-A9 which causes the DMB
1013 instruction to behave as a DSB, ensuring the correct behaviour of

1017 bool "ARM errata: Incorrect hazard handling in the SCU may lead to data corruption"
1018 depends on CPU_V7 && SMP
1019 depends on !ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM
1021 This option enables the workaround for the 742231 Cortex-A9
1022 (r2p0..r2p2) erratum. Under certain conditions, specific to the
1023 Cortex-A9 MPCore micro-architecture, two CPUs working in SMP mode,
1024 accessing some data located in the same cache line, may get corrupted
1025 data due to bad handling of the address hazard when the line gets
1026 replaced from one of the CPUs at the same time as another CPU is
1027 accessing it. This workaround sets specific bits in the diagnostic
1028 register of the Cortex-A9 which reduces the linefill issuing
1029 capabilities of the processor.

1032 bool "ARM errata: LoUIS bit field in CLIDR register is incorrect"
1033 depends on CPU_V7 && SMP
1036 This option enables the workaround for the 643719 Cortex-A9 (prior to
1037 r1p0) erratum. On affected cores the LoUIS bit field of the CLIDR
1038 register returns zero when it should return one. The workaround
1039 corrects this value, ensuring cache maintenance operations which use
1040 it behave as intended and avoiding data corruption.
1042 config ARM_ERRATA_720789
1043 bool "ARM errata: TLBIASIDIS and TLBIMVAIS operations can broadcast a faulty ASID"
1046 This option enables the workaround for the 720789 Cortex-A9 (prior to
1047 r2p0) erratum. A faulty ASID can be sent to the other CPUs for the
1048 broadcasted CP15 TLB maintenance operations TLBIASIDIS and TLBIMVAIS.
1049 As a consequence of this erratum, some TLB entries which should be
1050 invalidated are not, resulting in an incoherency in the system page
1051 tables. The workaround changes the TLB flushing routines to invalidate
1052 entries regardless of the ASID.

1055 bool "ARM errata: Faulty hazard checking in the Store Buffer may lead to data corruption"

1059 This option enables the workaround for the 743622 Cortex-A9
1060 (r2p*) erratum. Under very rare conditions, a faulty
1061 optimisation in the Cortex-A9 Store Buffer may lead to data
1062 corruption. This workaround sets a specific bit in the diagnostic
1063 register of the Cortex-A9 which disables the Store Buffer
1064 optimisation, preventing the defect from occurring. This has no
1065 visible impact on the overall performance or power consumption of the

1069 bool "ARM errata: Interrupted ICIALLUIS may prevent completion of broadcasted operation"
1071 depends on !ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM
1073 This option enables the workaround for the 751472 Cortex-A9 (prior
1074 to r3p0) erratum. An interrupted ICIALLUIS operation may prevent the
1075 completion of a following broadcasted operation if the second
1076 operation is received by a CPU before the ICIALLUIS has completed,
1077 potentially leading to corrupted entries in the cache or TLB.
1079 config ARM_ERRATA_754322
1080 bool "ARM errata: possible faulty MMU translations following an ASID switch"
1083 This option enables the workaround for the 754322 Cortex-A9 (r2p*,
1084 r3p*) erratum. A speculative memory access may cause a page table walk
1085 which starts prior to an ASID switch but completes afterwards. This
1086 can populate the micro-TLB with a stale entry which may be hit with
1087 the new ASID. This workaround places two dsb instructions in the mm
1088 switching code so that no page table walks can cross the ASID switch.
1090 config ARM_ERRATA_754327
1091 bool "ARM errata: no automatic Store Buffer drain"
1092 depends on CPU_V7 && SMP
1094 This option enables the workaround for the 754327 Cortex-A9 (prior to
1095 r2p0) erratum. The Store Buffer does not have any automatic draining
1096 mechanism and therefore a livelock may occur if an external agent
1097 continuously polls a memory location waiting to observe an update.
1098 This workaround defines cpu_relax() as smp_mb(), preventing correctly
1099 written polling loops from denying visibility of updates to memory.
1101 config ARM_ERRATA_364296
1102 bool "ARM errata: Possible cache data corruption with hit-under-miss enabled"
1105 This options enables the workaround for the 364296 ARM1136
1106 r0p2 erratum (possible cache data corruption with
1107 hit-under-miss enabled). It sets the undocumented bit 31 in
1108 the auxiliary control register and the FI bit in the control

1117 This option enables the workaround for erratum 764369
1118 affecting Cortex-A9 MPCore with two or more processors (all
1119 current revisions). Under certain timing circumstances, a data
1120 cache line maintenance operation by MVA targeting an Inner
1121 Shareable memory region may fail to proceed up to either the
1122 Point of Coherency or to the Point of Unification of the
1123 system. This workaround adds a DSB instruction before the
1124 relevant cache maintenance functions and sets a specific bit
1125 in the diagnostic control register of the SCU.
1127 config ARM_ERRATA_775420
1128 bool "ARM errata: A data cache maintenance operation which aborts, might lead to deadlock"
1131 This option enables the workaround for the 775420 Cortex-A9 (r2p2,
1132 r2p6,r2p8,r2p10,r3p0) erratum. In case a date cache maintenance
1133 operation aborts with MMU exception, it might cause the processor
1134 to deadlock. This workaround puts DSB before executing ISB if
1135 an abort may occur on cache maintenance.

1141 On Cortex-A15 (r0p0..r3p2) the TLBI*IS/DSB operations are not
1142 adequately shooting down all use of the old entries. This
1143 option enables the Linux kernel workaround for this erratum
1144 which sends an IPI to the CPUs that are running the same ASID
1145 as the one being invalidated.
1147 config ARM_ERRATA_773022
1148 bool "ARM errata: incorrect instructions may be executed from loop buffer"
1151 This option enables the workaround for the 773022 Cortex-A15
1152 (up to r0p4) erratum. In certain rare sequences of code, the
1153 loop buffer may deliver incorrect instructions. This
1154 workaround disables the loop buffer to avoid the erratum.

1162 instruction might deadlock. Fixed in r0p1.
1163 - Cortex-A12 852422: Execution of a sequence of instructions might
1164 lead to either a data corruption or a CPU deadlock. Not fixed in
1165 any Cortex-A12 cores yet.
1166 This workaround for all both errata involves setting bit[12] of the
1167 Feature Register. This bit disables an optimisation applied to a
1168 sequence of 2 instructions that use opposing condition codes.
1170 config ARM_ERRATA_821420

1174 This option enables the workaround for the 821420 Cortex-A12
1175 (all revs) erratum. In very rare timing conditions, a sequence
1176 of VMOV to Core registers instructions, for which the second
1177 one is in the shadow of a branch or abort, can lead to a

1606 This option preserves the old syscall interface along with the
1607 new (ARM EABI) one. It also provides a compatibility layer to
1608 intercept syscalls that have structure arguments which layout
1609 in memory differs between the legacy ABI and the new ARM EABI
1610 (only for non "thumb" binaries). This option adds a tiny
1611 overhead to all syscalls and produces a slightly larger kernel.
1613 The seccomp filter system will not be available when this is
1614 selected, since there is no way yet to sensibly distinguish
1615 between calling conventions during filtering.
1617 If you know you'll be using only pure EABI user space then you
1618 can say N here. If this option is not selected and you attempt
1619 to execute a legacy ABI binary then the result will be
1620 UNPREDICTABLE (in fact it can be predicted that it won't work
1621 at all). If in doubt say N.

1643 bool "High Memory Support"
1646 The address space of ARM processors is only 4 Gigabytes large
1647 and it has to accommodate user address space, kernel address
1648 space as well as some memory mapped IO. That means that, if you
1649 have a large amount of physical memory and/or IO, not all of the
1650 memory can be "permanently mapped" by the kernel. The physical
1651 memory that is not permanently mapped is called "high memory".
1653 Depending on the selected kernel/user memory split, minimum
1654 vmalloc space and actual amount of RAM, you may not need this
1655 option which should result in a slightly faster kernel.
1660 bool "Allocate 2nd-level pagetables from highmem" if EXPERT
1664 The VM uses one page of physical memory for each page table.
1665 For systems with a lot of processes, this can use a lot of
1666 precious low memory, eventually leading to low memory being
1667 consumed by page tables. Setting this option will allow
1668 user-space 2nd level page tables to reside in high memory.
1670 config CPU_SW_DOMAIN_PAN
1671 bool "Enable use of CPU domains to implement privileged no-access"
1672 depends on MMU && !ARM_LPAE
1675 Increase kernel security by ensuring that normal kernel accesses
1676 are unable to access userspace addresses. This can help prevent
1677 use-after-free bugs becoming an exploitable privilege escalation
1678 by ensuring that magic values (such as LIST_POISON) will always
1679 fault when dereferenced.
1681 CPUs with low-vector mappings use a best-efforts implementation.
1682 Their lower 1MB needs to remain accessible for the vectors, but
1683 the remainder of userspace will become appropriately inaccessible.

1701 bool "Use PLTs to allow module memory to spill over into vmalloc area"
1705 Allocate PLTs when loading modules so that jumps and calls whose
1706 targets are too far away for their relative offsets to be encoded
1707 in the instructions themselves can be bounced via veneers in the
1708 module's PLT. This allows modules to be allocated in the generic
1709 vmalloc area after the dedicated module memory area has been
1710 exhausted. The modules will use slightly more memory, but after
1711 rounding up to page size, the actual memory footprint is usually
1714 Disabling this is usually safe for small single-platform
1715 configurations. If unsure, say y.

1718 int "Maximum zone order"
1719 default "12" if SOC_AM33XX

1723 The kernel memory allocator divides physically contiguous memory
1724 blocks into "zones", where each zone is a power of two number of
1725 pages. This option selects the largest power of two that the kernel
1726 keeps in the memory allocator. If you need to allocate very large
1727 blocks of physically contiguous memory, then you may need to
1728 increase this value.
1730 This config option is actually maximum order plus one. For example,
1731 a value of 11 means that the largest free memory block is 2^10 pages.

1737 select HAVE_PROC_CPU if PROC_FS
1739 ARM processors cannot fetch/store information which is not
1740 naturally aligned on the bus, i.e., a 4 byte fetch must start at an
1741 address divisible by 4. On 32-bit ARM processors, these non-aligned
1742 fetch/store instructions will be emulated in software if you say
1743 here, which has a severe performance impact. This is necessary for
1744 correct operation of some network protocols. With an IP-only
1745 configuration it is safe to say N, otherwise say Y.
1747 config UACCESS_WITH_MEMCPY
1748 bool "Use kernel mem{cpy,set}() for {copy_to,clear}_user()"
1750 default y if CPU_FEROCEON
1752 Implement faster copy_to_user and clear_user methods for CPU
1753 cores where a 8-word STM instruction give significantly higher
1754 memory write throughput than a sequence of individual 32bit stores.
1756 A possible side effect is a slight increase in scheduling latency
1757 between threads sharing the same address space if they invoke
1758 such copy operations with large buffers.
1760 However, if the CPU data cache is using a write-allocate mode,
1761 this option is unlikely to provide any performance gain.
1765 prompt "Enable seccomp to safely compute untrusted bytecode"
1767 This kernel feature is useful for number crunching applications
1768 that may need to compute untrusted bytecode during their
1769 execution. By using pipes or other transports made available to
1770 the process as file descriptors supporting the read/write
1771 syscalls, it's possible to isolate those applications in
1772 their own address space using seccomp. Once seccomp is
1773 enabled via prctl(PR_SET_SECCOMP), it cannot be disabled
1774 and the task is only allowed to execute a few safe syscalls
1775 defined by each seccomp mode.
1778 bool "Enable paravirtualization code"
1780 This changes the kernel so it can modify itself when it is run
1781 under a hypervisor, potentially improving performance significantly
1782 over full virtualization.

1785 bool "Paravirtual steal time accounting"
1789 Select this option to enable fine granularity task steal time
1790 accounting. Time spent executing other tasks in parallel with
1791 the current vCPU is discounted from the vCPU power. To account for
1792 that, there can be a small performance impact.

1859 The base address of an area of read/write memory in the target
1860 for the ROM-able zImage which must be available while the
1861 decompressor is running. It must be large enough to hold the
1862 entire decompressed kernel plus an additional 128 KiB.

1873 Say Y here if you intend to execute your compressed kernel image
1874 (zImage) directly from ROM or flash. If unsure, say N.
1876 config ARM_APPENDED_DTB
1877 bool "Use appended device tree blob to zImage (EXPERIMENTAL)"
1880 With this option, the boot code will look for a device tree binary
1881 (DTB) appended to zImage
1882 (e.g. cat zImage <filename>.dtb > zImage_w_dtb).
1884 This is meant as a backward compatibility convenience for those
1885 systems with a bootloader that can't be upgraded to accommodate
1886 the documented boot protocol using a device tree.
1888 Beware that there is very little in terms of protection against
1889 this option being confused by leftover garbage in memory that might
1890 look like a DTB header after a reboot if no actual DTB is appended
1891 to zImage. Do not leave this option active in a production kernel
1892 if you don't intend to always append a DTB. Proper passing of the
1893 location into r2 of a bootloader provided DTB is always preferable
1896 config ARM_ATAG_DTB_COMPAT
1897 bool "Supplement the appended DTB with traditional ATAG information"
1898 depends on ARM_APPENDED_DTB
1900 Some old bootloaders can't be updated to a DTB capable one, yet
1901 they provide ATAGs with memory configuration, the ramdisk address,
1902 the kernel cmdline string, etc. Such information is dynamically
1903 provided by the bootloader and can't always be stored in a static
1904 DTB. To allow a device tree enabled kernel to be used with such
1905 bootloaders, this option allows zImage to extract the information
1906 from the ATAG list and store it at run time into the appended DTB.

1928 string "Default kernel command string"
1931 On some architectures (EBSA110 and CATS), there is currently no way
1932 for the boot loader to pass arguments to the kernel. For these
1933 architectures, you should supply some command-line options at build
1934 time by entering them here. As a minimum, you should specify the
1935 memory size and the root device (e.g., mem=64M root=/dev/nfs).

1947 string provided in CMDLINE will be used.
1949 config CMDLINE_EXTEND
1950 bool "Extend bootloader kernel arguments"
1952 The command-line arguments provided by the boot loader will be

1955 config CMDLINE_FORCE
1956 bool "Always use the default kernel command string"
1958 Always use the default kernel command string, even if the boot
1959 loader passes other arguments to the kernel.

1961 command-line options your boot loader passes to the kernel.
1965 bool "Kernel Execute-In-Place from ROM"
1966 depends on !ARM_LPAE && !ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM
1968 Execute-In-Place allows the kernel to run from non-volatile storage
1969 directly addressable by the CPU, such as NOR flash. This saves RAM
1970 space since the text section of the kernel is not loaded from flash
1971 to RAM. Read-write sections, such as the data section and stack,
1972 are still copied to RAM. The XIP kernel is not compressed since
1973 it has to run directly from flash, so it will take more space to
1974 store it. The flash address used to link the kernel object files,
1975 and for storing it, is configuration dependent. Therefore, if you
1976 say Y here, you must know the proper physical address where to
1977 store the kernel image depending on your own flash memory usage.
1979 Also note that the make target becomes "make xipImage" rather than
1980 "make zImage" or "make Image". The final kernel binary to put in
1981 ROM memory will be arch/arm/boot/xipImage.

1994 config XIP_DEFLATED_DATA
1995 bool "Store kernel .data section compressed in ROM"
1996 depends on XIP_KERNEL
1999 Before the kernel is actually executed, its .data section has to be
2000 copied to RAM from ROM. This option allows for storing that data
2001 in compressed form and decompressed to RAM rather than merely being
2002 copied, saving some precious ROM space. A possible drawback is a
2003 slightly longer boot delay.
2006 bool "Kexec system call (EXPERIMENTAL)"
2007 depends on (!SMP || PM_SLEEP_SMP)
2011 kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your
2012 current kernel, and to start another kernel. It is like a reboot
2013 but it is independent of the system firmware. And like a reboot
2014 you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.
2016 It is an ongoing process to be certain the hardware in a machine
2017 is properly shutdown, so do not be surprised if this code does not
2018 initially work for you.
2021 bool "Export atags in procfs"
2022 depends on ATAGS && KEXEC
2025 Should the atags used to boot the kernel be exported in an "atags"
2026 file in procfs. Useful with kexec.
2029 bool "Build kdump crash kernel (EXPERIMENTAL)"
2031 Generate crash dump after being started by kexec. This should
2032 be normally only set in special crash dump kernels which are
2033 loaded in the main kernel with kexec-tools into a specially
2034 reserved region and then later executed after a crash by
2035 kdump/kexec. The crash dump kernel must be compiled to a
2036 memory address not used by the main kernel
2038 For more details see Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt
2040 config AUTO_ZRELADDR
2041 bool "Auto calculation of the decompressed kernel image address"
2043 ZRELADDR is the physical address where the decompressed kernel
2044 image will be placed. If AUTO_ZRELADDR is selected, the address
2045 will be determined at run-time by masking the current IP with
2046 0xf8000000. This assumes the zImage being placed in the first 128MB
2047 from start of memory.

2056 select EFI_PARAMS_FROM_FDT
2059 select EFI_RUNTIME_WRAPPERS
2061 This option provides support for runtime services provided
2062 by UEFI firmware (such as non-volatile variables, realtime
2063 clock, and platform reset). A UEFI stub is also provided to
2064 allow the kernel to be booted as an EFI application. This
2065 is only useful for kernels that may run on systems that have
2069 bool "Enable support for SMBIOS (DMI) tables"
2073 This enables SMBIOS/DMI feature for systems.
2075 This option is only useful on systems that have UEFI firmware.
2076 However, even with this option, the resultant kernel should
2077 continue to boot on existing non-UEFI platforms.
2079 NOTE: This does *NOT* enable or encourage the use of DMI quirks,
2080 i.e., the the practice of identifying the platform via DMI to
2081 decide whether certain workarounds for buggy hardware and/or
2082 firmware need to be enabled. This would require the DMI subsystem
2083 to be enabled much earlier than we do on ARM, which is non-trivial.

2117 Note that gcc does not generate 80-bit operations by default,

2128 This is an experimental much faster emulator which now also has full
2129 precision for the mantissa. It does not support any exceptions.
2130 It is very simple, and approximately 3-6 times faster than NWFPE.
