config MTRR
	bool "MTRR (Memory Type Range Register) support"
	---help---
	  On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
	  the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
	  processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
	  a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
	  allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
	  before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
	  of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
	  /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
	  MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.

	  This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
	  control registers on other processors can be easily supported
	  as well.

	  Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
	  set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
	  can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.

	  Just say Y here, all x86-64 machines support MTRRs.

	  See <file:Documentation/mtrr.txt> for more information.

	  If you say N here, the kernel will run on single and multiprocessor
	  machines, but will use only one CPU of a multiprocessor machine. If
	  you say Y here, the kernel will run on many, but not all,

	  This gives the physical address where the kernel is loaded. It

	  address.

	  In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
	  as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
	  (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
	  address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
	  to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
	  vmlinux instead.

	  So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump, leave
	  the value here unchanged to 0x200000 and set CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.
	  Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux for capturing the crash dump
	  change this value to start of the reserved region (Typically 16MB
	  0x1000000). In other words, it can be set based on the "X" value as
450 451 452 453 454
	  specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM" command line boot parameter
	  passed to the panic-ed kernel. Typically this parameter is set as
	  crashkernel=64M@16M. Please take a look at
	  Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt for more details about crash dumps.

455 456 457 458
	  Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is advantageous as
	  one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
	  as production kernel and capture kernel.

459 460
	  Don't change this unless you know what you are doing.
