69 bool "Force a static link"
72 This option gives you the ability to force a static link of UML.
73 Normally, UML is linked as a shared binary. This is inconvenient for
74 use in a chroot jail. So, if you intend to run UML inside a chroot,
75 you probably want to say Y here.
76 Additionally, this option enables using higher memory spaces (up to

91 tristate "Host filesystem"
93 While the User-Mode Linux port uses its own root file system for
94 booting and normal file access, this module lets the UML user
95 access files stored on the host. It does not require any
96 network connection between the Host and UML. An example use of
99 mount none /tmp/fromhost -t hostfs -o /tmp/umlshare
101 where /tmp/fromhost is an empty directory inside UML and
102 /tmp/umlshare is a directory on the host with files the UML user
105 For more information, see
106 <http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/hostfs.html>.
108 If you'd like to be able to work with files stored on the host,
109 say Y or M here; otherwise say N.
112 bool "Management console"
116 The user mode linux management console is a low-level interface to
117 the kernel, somewhat like the i386 SysRq interface. Since there is
118 a full-blown operating system running under every user mode linux
119 instance, there is much greater flexibility possible than with the
122 If you answer 'Y' to this option, to use this feature, you need the
123 mconsole client (called uml_mconsole) which is present in CVS in
124 2.4.5-9um and later (path /tools/mconsole), and is also in the
125 distribution RPM package in 2.4.6 and later.
127 It is safe to say 'Y' here.
130 bool "Magic SysRq key"
133 If you say Y here, you will have some control over the system even
134 if the system crashes for example during kernel debugging (e.g., you
135 will be able to flush the buffer cache to disk, reboot the system
136 immediately or dump some status information). A key for each of the
137 possible requests is provided.
139 This is the feature normally accomplished by pressing a key
140 while holding SysRq (Alt+PrintScreen).
142 On UML, this is accomplished by sending a "sysrq" command with
143 mconsole, followed by the letter for the requested command.
145 The keys are documented in <file:Documentation/admin-guide/sysrq.rst>. Don't say Y
146 unless you really know what this hack does.
148 config KERNEL_STACK_ORDER
149 int "Kernel stack size order"
154 This option determines the size of UML kernel stacks. They will
155 be 1 << order pages. The default is OK unless you're running Valgrind
156 on UML, in which case, set this to 3.

174 prompt "Enable seccomp to safely compute untrusted bytecode"
176 This kernel feature is useful for number crunching applications
177 that may need to compute untrusted bytecode during their
178 execution. By using pipes or other transports made available to
179 the process as file descriptors supporting the read/write
180 syscalls, it's possible to isolate those applications in
181 their own address space using seccomp. Once seccomp is
182 enabled via prctl(PR_SET_SECCOMP), it cannot be disabled
183 and the task is only allowed to execute a few safe syscalls
184 defined by each seccomp mode.
