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

153 The Extended Industry Standard Architecture (EISA) bus was
154 developed as an open alternative to the IBM MicroChannel bus.
156 The EISA bus provided some of the features of the IBM MicroChannel
157 bus while maintaining backward compatibility with cards made for
158 the older ISA bus. The EISA bus saw limited use between 1988 and
159 1995 when it was made obsolete by the PCI bus.
161 Say Y here if you are building a kernel for an EISA-based machine.

966 When coming out of either a Wait for Interrupt (WFI) or a Wait for
967 Event (WFE) IDLE states, a specific timing sensitivity exists between
968 the retiring WFI/WFE instructions and the newly issued subsequent
969 instructions. This sensitivity can result in a CPU hang scenario.

979 Executing a SWP instruction to read-only memory does not set bit 11
980 of the FSR on the ARM 1136 prior to r1p0. This causes the kernel to
981 treat the access as a read, preventing a COW from occurring and

994 bool "ARM errata: Stale prediction on replaced interworking branch"
997 This option enables the workaround for the 430973 Cortex-A8
998 r1p* erratum. If a code sequence containing an ARM/Thumb
999 interworking branch is replaced with another code sequence at the
1000 same virtual address, whether due to self-modifying code or virtual
1001 to physical address re-mapping, Cortex-A8 does not recover from the
1002 stale interworking branch prediction. This results in Cortex-A8
1003 executing the new code sequence in the incorrect ARM or Thumb state.
1004 The workaround enables the BTB/BTAC operations by setting ACTLR.IBE
1005 and also flushes the branch target cache at every context switch.
1006 Note that setting specific bits in the ACTLR register may not be
1007 available in non-secure mode.

1012 depends on !ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM
1014 This option enables the workaround for the 458693 Cortex-A8 (r2p0)
1015 erratum. For very specific sequences of memory operations, it is
1016 possible for a hazard condition intended for a cache line to instead
1017 be incorrectly associated with a different cache line. This false
1018 hazard might then cause a processor deadlock. The workaround enables
1019 the L1 caching of the NEON accesses and disables the PLD instruction
1020 in the ACTLR register. Note that setting specific bits in the ACTLR
1021 register may not be available in non-secure mode.

1028 This option enables the workaround for the 460075 Cortex-A8 (r2p0)
1029 erratum. Any asynchronous access to the L2 cache may encounter a
1030 situation in which recent store transactions to the L2 cache are lost
1031 and overwritten with stale memory contents from external memory. The
1032 workaround disables the write-allocate mode for the L2 cache via the

1043 between two write operations may not ensure the correct visibility
1044 ordering of the two writes. This workaround sets a specific bit in

1054 This option enables the workaround for the 742231 Cortex-A9
1055 (r2p0..r2p2) erratum. Under certain conditions, specific to the
1056 Cortex-A9 MPCore micro-architecture, two CPUs working in SMP mode,
1057 accessing some data located in the same cache line, may get corrupted
1058 data due to bad handling of the address hazard when the line gets
1059 replaced from one of the CPUs at the same time as another CPU is
1060 accessing it. This workaround sets specific bits in the diagnostic
1061 register of the Cortex-A9 which reduces the linefill issuing
1062 capabilities of the processor.

1070 r1p0) erratum. On affected cores the LoUIS bit field of the CLIDR
1071 register returns zero when it should return one. The workaround
1072 corrects this value, ensuring cache maintenance operations which use

1080 r2p0) erratum. A faulty ASID can be sent to the other CPUs for the
1081 broadcasted CP15 TLB maintenance operations TLBIASIDIS and TLBIMVAIS.
1082 As a consequence of this erratum, some TLB entries which should be
1083 invalidated are not, resulting in an incoherency in the system page
1084 tables. The workaround changes the TLB flushing routines to invalidate
1085 entries regardless of the ASID.

1093 (r2p*) erratum. Under very rare conditions, a faulty
1094 optimisation in the Cortex-A9 Store Buffer may lead to data
1095 corruption. This workaround sets a specific bit in the diagnostic
1096 register of the Cortex-A9 which disables the Store Buffer
1097 optimisation, preventing the defect from occurring. This has no

1106 This option enables the workaround for the 751472 Cortex-A9 (prior
1107 to r3p0) erratum. An interrupted ICIALLUIS operation may prevent the
1108 completion of a following broadcasted operation if the second
1109 operation is received by a CPU before the ICIALLUIS has completed,
1110 potentially leading to corrupted entries in the cache or TLB.
1112 config ARM_ERRATA_754322

1116 This option enables the workaround for the 754322 Cortex-A9 (r2p*,
1117 r3p*) erratum. A speculative memory access may cause a page table walk
1118 which starts prior to an ASID switch but completes afterwards. This
1119 can populate the micro-TLB with a stale entry which may be hit with
1120 the new ASID. This workaround places two dsb instructions in the mm

1127 This option enables the workaround for the 754327 Cortex-A9 (prior to
1128 r2p0) erratum. The Store Buffer does not have any automatic draining
1129 mechanism and therefore a livelock may occur if an external agent
1130 continuously polls a memory location waiting to observe an update.

1140 hit-under-miss enabled). It sets the undocumented bit 31 in

1153 cache line maintenance operation by MVA targeting an Inner
1154 Shareable memory region may fail to proceed up to either the
1155 Point of Coherency or to the Point of Unification of the

1523 This is a problem, because there's no guarantee the final
1524 destination of the symbol, or any candidate locations for a
1525 trampoline, are within range of the branch. For this reason, the
1526 kernel does not support fixing up the R_ARM_THM_JUMP11 (102)
1527 relocation in modules at all, and it makes little sense to add

1571 space environment that is also compiled with EABI.
1573 Since there are major incompatibilities between the legacy ABI and
1574 EABI, especially with regard to structure member alignment, this

1588 in memory differs between the legacy ABI and the new ARM EABI
1589 (only for non "thumb" binaries). This option adds a tiny

1645 precious low memory, eventually leading to low memory being
1646 consumed by page tables. Setting this option will allow
1647 user-space 2nd level page tables to reside in high memory.
1649 config CPU_SW_DOMAIN_PAN
1650 bool "Enable use of CPU domains to implement privileged no-access"
1651 depends on MMU && !ARM_LPAE
1654 Increase kernel security by ensuring that normal kernel accesses
1655 are unable to access userspace addresses. This can help prevent
1656 use-after-free bugs becoming an exploitable privilege escalation
1657 by ensuring that magic values (such as LIST_POISON) will always
1658 fault when dereferenced.
1660 CPUs with low-vector mappings use a best-efforts implementation.
1661 Their lower 1MB needs to remain accessible for the vectors, but
1662 the remainder of userspace will become appropriately inaccessible.

1680 bool "Use PLTs to allow module memory to spill over into vmalloc area"
1683 Allocate PLTs when loading modules so that jumps and calls whose
1684 targets are too far away for their relative offsets to be encoded
1685 in the instructions themselves can be bounced via veneers in the
1686 module's PLT. This allows modules to be allocated in the generic
1687 vmalloc area after the dedicated module memory area has been
1688 exhausted. The modules will use slightly more memory, but after
1689 rounding up to page size, the actual memory footprint is usually
1692 Say y if you are getting out of memory errors while loading modules
1696 config FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER
1697 int "Maximum zone order"
1698 default "12" if SOC_AM33XX
1699 default "9" if SA1111 || ARCH_EFM32
1702 The kernel memory allocator divides physically contiguous memory
1703 blocks into "zones", where each zone is a power of two number of
1704 pages. This option selects the largest power of two that the kernel
1705 keeps in the memory allocator. If you need to allocate very large
1706 blocks of physically contiguous memory, then you may need to
1707 increase this value.
1709 This config option is actually maximum order plus one. For example,
1710 a value of 11 means that the largest free memory block is 2^10 pages.
1712 config ALIGNMENT_TRAP
1714 depends on CPU_CP15_MMU
1715 default y if !ARCH_EBSA110
1716 select HAVE_PROC_CPU if PROC_FS
1718 ARM processors cannot fetch/store information which is not
1719 naturally aligned on the bus, i.e., a 4 byte fetch must start at an
1720 address divisible by 4. On 32-bit ARM processors, these non-aligned
1721 fetch/store instructions will be emulated in software if you say
1722 here, which has a severe performance impact. This is necessary for
1723 correct operation of some network protocols. With an IP-only
1724 configuration it is safe to say N, otherwise say Y.
1726 config UACCESS_WITH_MEMCPY
1727 bool "Use kernel mem{cpy,set}() for {copy_to,clear}_user()"
1729 default y if CPU_FEROCEON
1731 Implement faster copy_to_user and clear_user methods for CPU
1732 cores where a 8-word STM instruction give significantly higher
1733 memory write throughput than a sequence of individual 32bit stores.
1735 A possible side effect is a slight increase in scheduling latency
1736 between threads sharing the same address space if they invoke
1737 such copy operations with large buffers.
1739 However, if the CPU data cache is using a write-allocate mode,
1740 this option is unlikely to provide any performance gain.
1744 prompt "Enable seccomp to safely compute untrusted bytecode"
1746 This kernel feature is useful for number crunching applications
1747 that may need to compute untrusted bytecode during their
1748 execution. By using pipes or other transports made available to
1749 the process as file descriptors supporting the read/write
1750 syscalls, it's possible to isolate those applications in
1751 their own address space using seccomp. Once seccomp is
1752 enabled via prctl(PR_SET_SECCOMP), it cannot be disabled
1753 and the task is only allowed to execute a few safe syscalls
1754 defined by each seccomp mode.
1763 bool "Enable paravirtualization code"
1765 This changes the kernel so it can modify itself when it is run
1766 under a hypervisor, potentially improving performance significantly
1767 over full virtualization.
1769 config PARAVIRT_TIME_ACCOUNTING
1770 bool "Paravirtual steal time accounting"
1774 Select this option to enable fine granularity task steal time
1775 accounting. Time spent executing other tasks in parallel with
1776 the current vCPU is discounted from the vCPU power. To account for
1777 that, there can be a small performance impact.

1810 bool "Support for the traditional ATAGS boot data passing" if USE_OF
1813 This is the traditional way of passing data to the kernel at boot
1814 time. If you are solely relying on the flattened device tree (or
1815 the ARM_ATAG_DTB_COMPAT option) then you may unselect this option
1816 to remove ATAGS support from your kernel binary. If unsure,

1829 hex "Compressed ROM boot loader base address"
1832 The physical address at which the ROM-able zImage is to be
1833 placed in the target. Platforms which normally make use of
1834 ROM-able zImage formats normally set this to a suitable
1835 value in their defconfig file.
1837 If ZBOOT_ROM is not enabled, this has no effect.
1839 config ZBOOT_ROM_BSS
1840 hex "Compressed ROM boot loader BSS address"
1843 The base address of an area of read/write memory in the target
1844 for the ROM-able zImage which must be available while the
1845 decompressor is running. It must be large enough to hold the
1846 entire decompressed kernel plus an additional 128 KiB.
1847 Platforms which normally make use of ROM-able zImage formats
1848 normally set this to a suitable value in their defconfig file.

1854 depends on ZBOOT_ROM_TEXT != ZBOOT_ROM_BSS
1855 depends on !ARM_APPENDED_DTB && !XIP_KERNEL && !AUTO_ZRELADDR
1857 Say Y here if you intend to execute your compressed kernel image
1858 (zImage) directly from ROM or flash. If unsure, say N.
1860 config ARM_APPENDED_DTB
1861 bool "Use appended device tree blob to zImage (EXPERIMENTAL)"
1864 With this option, the boot code will look for a device tree binary
1865 (DTB) appended to zImage
1866 (e.g. cat zImage <filename>.dtb > zImage_w_dtb).
1868 This is meant as a backward compatibility convenience for those
1869 systems with a bootloader that can't be upgraded to accommodate
1870 the documented boot protocol using a device tree.
1872 Beware that there is very little in terms of protection against
1873 this option being confused by leftover garbage in memory that might
1874 look like a DTB header after a reboot if no actual DTB is appended
1875 to zImage. Do not leave this option active in a production kernel
1876 if you don't intend to always append a DTB. Proper passing of the
1877 location into r2 of a bootloader provided DTB is always preferable
1880 config ARM_ATAG_DTB_COMPAT
1881 bool "Supplement the appended DTB with traditional ATAG information"
1882 depends on ARM_APPENDED_DTB
1884 Some old bootloaders can't be updated to a DTB capable one, yet
1885 they provide ATAGs with memory configuration, the ramdisk address,
1886 the kernel cmdline string, etc. Such information is dynamically
1887 provided by the bootloader and can't always be stored in a static
1888 DTB. To allow a device tree enabled kernel to be used with such
1889 bootloaders, this option allows zImage to extract the information
1890 from the ATAG list and store it at run time into the appended DTB.

1897 bool "Use bootloader kernel arguments if available"
1899 Uses the command-line options passed by the boot loader instead of

1906 The command-line arguments provided by the boot loader will be
1907 appended to the the device tree bootargs property.
1912 string "Default kernel command string"
1915 On some architectures (EBSA110 and CATS), there is currently no way
1916 for the boot loader to pass arguments to the kernel. For these
1917 architectures, you should supply some command-line options at build
1918 time by entering them here. As a minimum, you should specify the
1919 memory size and the root device (e.g., mem=64M root=/dev/nfs).
1922 prompt "Kernel command line type" if CMDLINE != ""
1923 default CMDLINE_FROM_BOOTLOADER
1926 config CMDLINE_FROM_BOOTLOADER
1927 bool "Use bootloader kernel arguments if available"
1929 Uses the command-line options passed by the boot loader. If
1930 the boot loader doesn't provide any, the default kernel command
1931 string provided in CMDLINE will be used.
1933 config CMDLINE_EXTEND
1934 bool "Extend bootloader kernel arguments"
1936 The command-line arguments provided by the boot loader will be
1937 appended to the default kernel command string.
1939 config CMDLINE_FORCE
1940 bool "Always use the default kernel command string"
1942 Always use the default kernel command string, even if the boot
1943 loader passes other arguments to the kernel.
1944 This is useful if you cannot or don't want to change the
1945 command-line options your boot loader passes to the kernel.
1949 bool "Kernel Execute-In-Place from ROM"
1950 depends on !ARM_LPAE && !ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM
1952 Execute-In-Place allows the kernel to run from non-volatile storage
1953 directly addressable by the CPU, such as NOR flash. This saves RAM
1954 space since the text section of the kernel is not loaded from flash
1955 to RAM. Read-write sections, such as the data section and stack,
1956 are still copied to RAM. The XIP kernel is not compressed since
1957 it has to run directly from flash, so it will take more space to
1958 store it. The flash address used to link the kernel object files,
1959 and for storing it, is configuration dependent. Therefore, if you
1960 say Y here, you must know the proper physical address where to
1961 store the kernel image depending on your own flash memory usage.
1963 Also note that the make target becomes "make xipImage" rather than
1964 "make zImage" or "make Image". The final kernel binary to put in
1965 ROM memory will be arch/arm/boot/xipImage.

1975 be linked for and stored to. This address is dependent on your
1979 bool "Kexec system call (EXPERIMENTAL)"
1980 depends on (!SMP || PM_SLEEP_SMP)
1984 kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your
1985 current kernel, and to start another kernel. It is like a reboot
1986 but it is independent of the system firmware. And like a reboot
1987 you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.
1989 It is an ongoing process to be certain the hardware in a machine
1990 is properly shutdown, so do not be surprised if this code does not
1991 initially work for you.
1994 bool "Export atags in procfs"
1995 depends on ATAGS && KEXEC
1998 Should the atags used to boot the kernel be exported in an "atags"
1999 file in procfs. Useful with kexec.
2002 bool "Build kdump crash kernel (EXPERIMENTAL)"
2004 Generate crash dump after being started by kexec. This should
2005 be normally only set in special crash dump kernels which are
2006 loaded in the main kernel with kexec-tools into a specially
2007 reserved region and then later executed after a crash by
2008 kdump/kexec. The crash dump kernel must be compiled to a
2009 memory address not used by the main kernel

2013 config AUTO_ZRELADDR
2014 bool "Auto calculation of the decompressed kernel image address"
2016 ZRELADDR is the physical address where the decompressed kernel
2017 image will be placed. If AUTO_ZRELADDR is selected, the address
2018 will be determined at run-time by masking the current IP with
2019 0xf8000000. This assumes the zImage being placed in the first 128MB
2020 from start of memory.

2060 This is necessary to run most binaries. Linux does not currently
2061 support floating point hardware so you need to say Y here even if

2071 Say Y to include 80-bit support in the kernel floating-point
2072 emulator. Otherwise, only 32 and 64-bit support is compiled in.
2073 Note that gcc does not generate 80-bit operations by default,
2074 so in most cases this option only enlarges the size of the
2075 floating point emulator without any good reason.
2077 You almost surely want to say N here.

2084 This is an experimental much faster emulator which now also has full
2085 precision for the mantissa. It does not support any exceptions.
2086 It is very simple, and approximately 3-6 times faster than NWFPE.
2088 It should be sufficient for most programs. It may be not suitable
2089 for scientific calculations, but you have to check this for yourself.
