299 Some PowerPC chips designed for embedded applications do not have
300 a floating-point unit and therefore do not implement the
301 floating-point instructions in the PowerPC instruction set. If you
302 say Y here, the kernel will include code to emulate a floating-point
303 unit, which will allow programs that use floating-point
306 config 8XX_MINIMAL_FPEMU
307 bool "Minimal math emulation for 8xx"
308 depends on 8xx && !MATH_EMULATION
310 Older arch/ppc kernels still emulated a few floating point
311 instructions such as load and store, even when full math
312 emulation is disabled. Say "Y" here if you want to preserve
315 It is recommended that you build a soft-float userspace instead.

325 Support for IO bounce buffering for systems without an IOMMU.
326 This allows us to DMA to the full physical address space on
327 platforms where the size of a physical address is larger
328 than the bus address. Not all platforms support this.

353 bool "kexec system call (EXPERIMENTAL)"
354 depends on PPC_BOOK3S && EXPERIMENTAL
356 kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your
357 current kernel, and to start another kernel. It is like a reboot
358 but it is independent of the system firmware. And like a reboot
359 you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.
361 The name comes from the similarity to the exec system call.
363 It is an ongoing process to be certain the hardware in a machine
364 is properly shutdown, so do not be surprised if this code does not
365 initially work for you. It may help to enable device hotplugging
366 support. As of this writing the exact hardware interface is
367 strongly in flux, so no good recommendation can be made.
370 bool "Build a kdump crash kernel"
371 depends on PPC64 || 6xx

379 bool "Hypervisor-assisted dump (EXPERIMENTAL)"

382 Hypervisor-assisted dump is meant to be a kdump replacement
383 offering robustness and speed not possible without system

393 bool "Distribute interrupts on all CPUs by default"
394 depends on SMP && !MV64360
396 This option gives the kernel permission to distribute IRQs across
397 multiple CPUs. Saying N here will route all IRQs to the first
398 CPU. Generally saying Y is safe, although some problems have been
399 reported with SMP Power Macintoshes with this option enabled.
402 bool "Support sparse irq numbering"
405 This enables support for sparse irqs. This is useful for distro
406 kernels that want to define a high CONFIG_NR_CPUS value but still
407 want to have low kernel memory footprint on smaller machines.
409 ( Sparse IRQs can also be beneficial on NUMA boxes, as they spread
410 out the irq_desc[] array in a more NUMA-friendly way. )

469 config PPC_HAS_HASH_64K
475 bool "Using standard binutils settings"
479 Turning this option off allows you to select 256KB PAGE_SIZE on 44x.
480 Note, that kernel will be able to run only those applications,
481 which had been compiled using binutils later than 2.17.50.0.3 with
482 '-zmax-page-size' set to 256K (the default is 64K). Or, if using
483 the older binutils, you can patch them with a trivial patch, which
484 changes the ELF_MAXPAGESIZE definition from 0x10000 to 0x40000.
490 Select the kernel logical page size. Increasing the page size
491 will reduce software overhead at each page boundary, allow
492 hardware prefetch mechanisms to be more effective, and allow
493 larger dma transfers increasing IO efficiency and reducing
494 overhead. However the utilization of memory will increase.
495 For example, each cached file will using a multiple of the
496 page size to hold its contents and the difference between the
497 end of file and the end of page is wasted.
499 Some dedicated systems, such as software raid serving with
500 accelerated calculations, have shown significant increases.
502 If you configure a 64 bit kernel for 64k pages but the
503 processor does not support them, then the kernel will simulate
504 them with 4k pages, loading them on demand, but with the
505 reduced software overhead and larger internal fragmentation.
506 For the 32 bit kernel, a large page option will not be offered
507 unless it is supported by the configured processor.
509 If unsure, choose 4K_PAGES.

522 bool "256k page size" if 44x
523 depends on !STDBINUTILS
525 Make the page size 256k.
527 As the ELF standard only requires alignment to support page
528 sizes up to 64k, you will need to compile all of your user
529 space applications with a non-standard binutils settings
530 (see the STDBINUTILS description for details).
532 Say N unless you know what you are doing.

546 range 5 64 if PPC32 && PPC_256K_PAGES
547 default "5" if PPC32 && PPC_256K_PAGES
551 The kernel memory allocator divides physically contiguous memory
552 blocks into "zones", where each zone is a power of two number of
553 pages. This option selects the largest power of two that the kernel
554 keeps in the memory allocator. If you need to allocate very large
555 blocks of physically contiguous memory, then you may need to
558 This config option is actually maximum order plus one. For example,
559 a value of 11 means that the largest free memory block is 2^10 pages.
561 The page size is not necessarily 4KB. For example, on 64-bit
562 systems, 64KB pages can be enabled via CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES. Keep
563 this in mind when choosing a value for this option.
565 config PPC_SUBPAGE_PROT
566 bool "Support setting protections for 4k subpages"
567 depends on PPC_STD_MMU_64 && PPC_64K_PAGES
569 This option adds support for a system call to allow user programs
570 to set access permissions (read/write, readonly, or no access)
571 on the 4k subpages of each 64k page.
574 bool "SMT (Hyperthreading) scheduler support"
575 depends on PPC64 && SMP
577 SMT scheduler support improves the CPU scheduler's decision making
578 when dealing with POWER5 cpus at a cost of slightly increased
579 overhead in some places. If unsure say N here.
581 config PROC_DEVICETREE
582 bool "Support for device tree in /proc"
585 This option adds a device-tree directory under /proc which contains
586 an image of the device tree that the kernel copies from Open
587 Firmware or other boot firmware. If unsure, say Y here.

593 string "Initial kernel command string"
594 depends on CMDLINE_BOOL
595 default "console=ttyS0,9600 console=tty0 root=/dev/sda2"
597 On some platforms, there is currently no way for the boot loader to
598 pass arguments to the kernel. For these platforms, you can supply
599 some command-line options at build time by entering them here. In
600 most cases you will need to specify the root device here.
603 string "Additional default image types"
605 List additional targets to be built by the bootwrapper here (separated
606 by spaces). This is useful for targets that depend of device tree
607 files in the .dts directory.
609 Targets in this list will be build as part of the default build
610 target, or when the user does a 'make zImage' or a
611 'make zImage.initrd'.
613 If unsure, leave blank
616 config ARCH_WANTS_FREEZER_CONTROL
620 source kernel/power/Kconfig
624 bool "Enable seccomp to safely compute untrusted bytecode"
628 This kernel feature is useful for number crunching applications
629 that may need to compute untrusted bytecode during their
630 execution. By using pipes or other transports made available to
631 the process as file descriptors supporting the read/write
632 syscalls, it's possible to isolate those applications in
633 their own address space using seccomp. Once seccomp is
634 enabled via /proc/<pid>/seccomp, it cannot be disabled
635 and the task is only allowed to execute a few safe syscalls
636 defined by each seccomp mode.
638 If unsure, say Y. Only embedded should say N here.
