181 size. This works well for buffers up to a few hundreds kilobytes, but
182 for larger buffers it just a waste of address space. Drivers which has
183 relatively small addressing window (like 64Mib) might run out of
184 virtual space with just a few allocations.
186 With this parameter you can specify the maximum PAGE_SIZE order for
187 DMA IOMMU buffers. Larger buffers will be aligned only to this
188 specified order. The order is expressed as a power of two multiplied

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

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

632 recommended workaround.

635 bool "ARM errata: Stale prediction on replaced interworking branch"
638 This option enables the workaround for the 430973 Cortex-A8
639 r1p* erratum. If a code sequence containing an ARM/Thumb
640 interworking branch is replaced with another code sequence at the
641 same virtual address, whether due to self-modifying code or virtual
642 to physical address re-mapping, Cortex-A8 does not recover from the
643 stale interworking branch prediction. This results in Cortex-A8
644 executing the new code sequence in the incorrect ARM or Thumb state.
645 The workaround enables the BTB/BTAC operations by setting ACTLR.IBE
646 and also flushes the branch target cache at every context switch.
647 Note that setting specific bits in the ACTLR register may not be
648 available in non-secure mode.
650 config ARM_ERRATA_458693
651 bool "ARM errata: Processor deadlock when a false hazard is created"
653 depends on !ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM
655 This option enables the workaround for the 458693 Cortex-A8 (r2p0)
656 erratum. For very specific sequences of memory operations, it is
657 possible for a hazard condition intended for a cache line to instead
658 be incorrectly associated with a different cache line. This false
659 hazard might then cause a processor deadlock. The workaround enables
660 the L1 caching of the NEON accesses and disables the PLD instruction
661 in the ACTLR register. Note that setting specific bits in the ACTLR
662 register may not be available in non-secure mode and thus is not
663 available on a multiplatform kernel. This should be applied by the

667 bool "ARM errata: Data written to the L2 cache can be overwritten with stale data"
669 depends on !ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM
671 This option enables the workaround for the 460075 Cortex-A8 (r2p0)
672 erratum. Any asynchronous access to the L2 cache may encounter a
673 situation in which recent store transactions to the L2 cache are lost
674 and overwritten with stale memory contents from external memory. The
675 workaround disables the write-allocate mode for the L2 cache via the
676 ACTLR register. Note that setting specific bits in the ACTLR register
677 may not be available in non-secure mode and thus is not available on
678 a multiplatform kernel. This should be applied by the bootloader
681 config ARM_ERRATA_742230
682 bool "ARM errata: DMB operation may be faulty"
683 depends on CPU_V7 && SMP
684 depends on !ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM
686 This option enables the workaround for the 742230 Cortex-A9
687 (r1p0..r2p2) erratum. Under rare circumstances, a DMB instruction
688 between two write operations may not ensure the correct visibility
689 ordering of the two writes. This workaround sets a specific bit in
690 the diagnostic register of the Cortex-A9 which causes the DMB
691 instruction to behave as a DSB, ensuring the correct behaviour of
692 the two writes. Note that setting specific bits in the diagnostics
693 register may not be available in non-secure mode and thus is not
694 available on a multiplatform kernel. This should be applied by the

698 bool "ARM errata: Incorrect hazard handling in the SCU may lead to data corruption"

704 Cortex-A9 MPCore micro-architecture, two CPUs working in SMP mode,
705 accessing some data located in the same cache line, may get corrupted
706 data due to bad handling of the address hazard when the line gets
707 replaced from one of the CPUs at the same time as another CPU is
708 accessing it. This workaround sets specific bits in the diagnostic
709 register of the Cortex-A9 which reduces the linefill issuing
710 capabilities of the processor. Note that setting specific bits in the
711 diagnostics register may not be available in non-secure mode and thus
712 is not available on a multiplatform kernel. This should be applied by
713 the bootloader instead.
715 config ARM_ERRATA_643719
716 bool "ARM errata: LoUIS bit field in CLIDR register is incorrect"
717 depends on CPU_V7 && SMP
720 This option enables the workaround for the 643719 Cortex-A9 (prior to
721 r1p0) erratum. On affected cores the LoUIS bit field of the CLIDR
722 register returns zero when it should return one. The workaround
723 corrects this value, ensuring cache maintenance operations which use
724 it behave as intended and avoiding data corruption.
726 config ARM_ERRATA_720789
727 bool "ARM errata: TLBIASIDIS and TLBIMVAIS operations can broadcast a faulty ASID"
730 This option enables the workaround for the 720789 Cortex-A9 (prior to
731 r2p0) erratum. A faulty ASID can be sent to the other CPUs for the
732 broadcasted CP15 TLB maintenance operations TLBIASIDIS and TLBIMVAIS.
733 As a consequence of this erratum, some TLB entries which should be
734 invalidated are not, resulting in an incoherency in the system page
735 tables. The workaround changes the TLB flushing routines to invalidate
736 entries regardless of the ASID.
738 config ARM_ERRATA_743622
739 bool "ARM errata: Faulty hazard checking in the Store Buffer may lead to data corruption"
741 depends on !ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM
743 This option enables the workaround for the 743622 Cortex-A9
744 (r2p*) erratum. Under very rare conditions, a faulty
745 optimisation in the Cortex-A9 Store Buffer may lead to data
746 corruption. This workaround sets a specific bit in the diagnostic
747 register of the Cortex-A9 which disables the Store Buffer
748 optimisation, preventing the defect from occurring. This has no
749 visible impact on the overall performance or power consumption of the
750 processor. Note that setting specific bits in the diagnostics register
751 may not be available in non-secure mode and thus is not available on a
752 multiplatform kernel. This should be applied by the bootloader instead.
754 config ARM_ERRATA_751472
755 bool "ARM errata: Interrupted ICIALLUIS may prevent completion of broadcasted operation"
757 depends on !ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM
759 This option enables the workaround for the 751472 Cortex-A9 (prior
760 to r3p0) erratum. An interrupted ICIALLUIS operation may prevent the
761 completion of a following broadcasted operation if the second
762 operation is received by a CPU before the ICIALLUIS has completed,
763 potentially leading to corrupted entries in the cache or TLB.
764 Note that setting specific bits in the diagnostics register may
765 not be available in non-secure mode and thus is not available on
766 a multiplatform kernel. This should be applied by the bootloader
769 config ARM_ERRATA_754322
770 bool "ARM errata: possible faulty MMU translations following an ASID switch"
773 This option enables the workaround for the 754322 Cortex-A9 (r2p*,
774 r3p*) erratum. A speculative memory access may cause a page table walk
775 which starts prior to an ASID switch but completes afterwards. This
776 can populate the micro-TLB with a stale entry which may be hit with
777 the new ASID. This workaround places two dsb instructions in the mm
778 switching code so that no page table walks can cross the ASID switch.
780 config ARM_ERRATA_754327
781 bool "ARM errata: no automatic Store Buffer drain"
782 depends on CPU_V7 && SMP
784 This option enables the workaround for the 754327 Cortex-A9 (prior to
785 r2p0) erratum. The Store Buffer does not have any automatic draining
786 mechanism and therefore a livelock may occur if an external agent
787 continuously polls a memory location waiting to observe an update.
788 This workaround defines cpu_relax() as smp_mb(), preventing correctly
789 written polling loops from denying visibility of updates to memory.

795 This options enables the workaround for the 364296 ARM1136
796 r0p2 erratum (possible cache data corruption with
797 hit-under-miss enabled). It sets the undocumented bit 31 in
798 the auxiliary control register and the FI bit in the control

808 affecting Cortex-A9 MPCore with two or more processors (all
809 current revisions). Under certain timing circumstances, a data
810 cache line maintenance operation by MVA targeting an Inner
811 Shareable memory region may fail to proceed up to either the
812 Point of Coherency or to the Point of Unification of the
813 system. This workaround adds a DSB instruction before the
814 relevant cache maintenance functions and sets a specific bit
815 in the diagnostic control register of the SCU.
817 config ARM_ERRATA_764319
818 bool "ARM errata: Read to DBGPRSR and DBGOSLSR may generate Undefined instruction"
821 This option enables the workaround for the 764319 Cortex A-9 erratum.
822 CP14 read accesses to the DBGPRSR and DBGOSLSR registers generate an
823 unexpected Undefined Instruction exception when the DBGSWENABLE
824 external pin is set to 0, even when the CP14 accesses are performed
825 from a privileged mode. This work around catches the exception in a
826 way the kernel does not stop execution.
828 config ARM_ERRATA_775420
829 bool "ARM errata: A data cache maintenance operation which aborts, might lead to deadlock"
832 This option enables the workaround for the 775420 Cortex-A9 (r2p2,
833 r2p6,r2p8,r2p10,r3p0) erratum. In case a data cache maintenance
834 operation aborts with MMU exception, it might cause the processor
835 to deadlock. This workaround puts DSB before executing ISB if
836 an abort may occur on cache maintenance.

842 On Cortex-A15 (r0p0..r3p2) the TLBI*IS/DSB operations are not
843 adequately shooting down all use of the old entries. This
844 option enables the Linux kernel workaround for this erratum
845 which sends an IPI to the CPUs that are running the same ASID
846 as the one being invalidated.
848 config ARM_ERRATA_773022
849 bool "ARM errata: incorrect instructions may be executed from loop buffer"
852 This option enables the workaround for the 773022 Cortex-A15
853 (up to r0p4) erratum. In certain rare sequences of code, the
854 loop buffer may deliver incorrect instructions. This
855 workaround disables the loop buffer to avoid the erratum.

863 instruction might deadlock. Fixed in r0p1.
864 - Cortex-A12 852422: Execution of a sequence of instructions might
865 lead to either a data corruption or a CPU deadlock. Not fixed in
866 any Cortex-A12 cores yet.
867 This workaround for all both errata involves setting bit[12] of the

869 sequence of 2 instructions that use opposing condition codes.
871 config ARM_ERRATA_821420

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

1390 cores where a 8-word STM instruction give significantly higher
1391 memory write throughput than a sequence of individual 32bit stores.
1393 A possible side effect is a slight increase in scheduling latency
1394 between threads sharing the same address space if they invoke
1395 such copy operations with large buffers.
1397 However, if the CPU data cache is using a write-allocate mode,
1398 this option is unlikely to provide any performance gain.
1401 bool "Enable paravirtualization code"
1403 This changes the kernel so it can modify itself when it is run
1404 under a hypervisor, potentially improving performance significantly
1405 over full virtualization.
1407 config PARAVIRT_TIME_ACCOUNTING
1408 bool "Paravirtual steal time accounting"
1411 Select this option to enable fine granularity task steal time
1412 accounting. Time spent executing other tasks in parallel with
1413 the current vCPU is discounted from the vCPU power. To account for
1414 that, there can be a small performance impact.
1416 If in doubt, say N here.
1423 bool "Xen guest support on ARM"
1424 depends on ARM && AEABI && OF
1425 depends on CPU_V7 && !CPU_V6

1442 depends on GCC_PLUGINS || CC_HAVE_STACKPROTECTOR_TLS
1443 select GCC_PLUGIN_ARM_SSP_PER_TASK if !CC_HAVE_STACKPROTECTOR_TLS
1446 Due to the fact that GCC uses an ordinary symbol reference from
1447 which to load the value of the stack canary, this value can only
1448 change at reboot time on SMP systems, and all tasks running in the
1449 kernel's address space are forced to use the same canary value for
1450 the entire duration that the system is up.
1452 Enable this option to switch to a different method that uses a
1453 different canary value for each task.
1460 bool "Flattened Device Tree support"
1464 Include support for flattened device tree machine descriptions.
1466 config ARCH_WANT_FLAT_DTB_INSTALL
1470 bool "Support for the traditional ATAGS boot data passing"
1473 This is the traditional way of passing data to the kernel at boot
1474 time. If you are solely relying on the flattened device tree (or
1475 the ARM_ATAG_DTB_COMPAT option) then you may unselect this option
1476 to remove ATAGS support from your kernel binary.
1478 config DEPRECATED_PARAM_STRUCT
1479 bool "Provide old way to pass kernel parameters"
1482 This was deprecated in 2001 and announced to live on for 5 years.
1483 Some old boot loaders still use this way.

1486 # TEXT and BSS so we preserve their values in the config files.
1487 config ZBOOT_ROM_TEXT
1488 hex "Compressed ROM boot loader base address"
1491 The physical address at which the ROM-able zImage is to be
1492 placed in the target. Platforms which normally make use of
1493 ROM-able zImage formats normally set this to a suitable
1494 value in their defconfig file.
1496 If ZBOOT_ROM is not enabled, this has no effect.
1498 config ZBOOT_ROM_BSS
1499 hex "Compressed ROM boot loader BSS address"
1502 The base address of an area of read/write memory in the target
1503 for the ROM-able zImage which must be available while the
1504 decompressor is running. It must be large enough to hold the
1505 entire decompressed kernel plus an additional 128 KiB.
1506 Platforms which normally make use of ROM-able zImage formats
1507 normally set this to a suitable value in their defconfig file.
1509 If ZBOOT_ROM is not enabled, this has no effect.
1512 bool "Compressed boot loader in ROM/flash"
1513 depends on ZBOOT_ROM_TEXT != ZBOOT_ROM_BSS
1514 depends on !ARM_APPENDED_DTB && !XIP_KERNEL && !AUTO_ZRELADDR
1516 Say Y here if you intend to execute your compressed kernel image
1517 (zImage) directly from ROM or flash. If unsure, say N.
1519 config ARM_APPENDED_DTB
1520 bool "Use appended device tree blob to zImage (EXPERIMENTAL)"
1523 With this option, the boot code will look for a device tree binary
1524 (DTB) appended to zImage
1525 (e.g. cat zImage <filename>.dtb > zImage_w_dtb).
1527 This is meant as a backward compatibility convenience for those
1528 systems with a bootloader that can't be upgraded to accommodate
1529 the documented boot protocol using a device tree.
1531 Beware that there is very little in terms of protection against
1532 this option being confused by leftover garbage in memory that might
1533 look like a DTB header after a reboot if no actual DTB is appended
1534 to zImage. Do not leave this option active in a production kernel
1535 if you don't intend to always append a DTB. Proper passing of the
1536 location into r2 of a bootloader provided DTB is always preferable
1539 config ARM_ATAG_DTB_COMPAT
1540 bool "Supplement the appended DTB with traditional ATAG information"
1541 depends on ARM_APPENDED_DTB
1543 Some old bootloaders can't be updated to a DTB capable one, yet
1544 they provide ATAGs with memory configuration, the ramdisk address,
1545 the kernel cmdline string, etc. Such information is dynamically
1546 provided by the bootloader and can't always be stored in a static
1547 DTB. To allow a device tree enabled kernel to be used with such
1548 bootloaders, this option allows zImage to extract the information
1549 from the ATAG list and store it at run time into the appended DTB.

1556 bool "Use bootloader kernel arguments if available"
1558 Uses the command-line options passed by the boot loader instead of
1559 the device tree bootargs property. If the boot loader doesn't provide
1560 any, the device tree bootargs property will be used.
1562 config ARM_ATAG_DTB_COMPAT_CMDLINE_EXTEND
1563 bool "Extend with bootloader kernel arguments"
1565 The command-line arguments provided by the boot loader will be
1566 appended to the the device tree bootargs property.
1571 string "Default kernel command string"
1574 On some architectures (e.g. CATS), there is currently no way
1575 for the boot loader to pass arguments to the kernel. For these
1576 architectures, you should supply some command-line options at build
1577 time by entering them here. As a minimum, you should specify the
1578 memory size and the root device (e.g., mem=64M root=/dev/nfs).
1581 prompt "Kernel command line type" if CMDLINE != ""
1582 default CMDLINE_FROM_BOOTLOADER
1584 config CMDLINE_FROM_BOOTLOADER
1585 bool "Use bootloader kernel arguments if available"
1587 Uses the command-line options passed by the boot loader. If
1588 the boot loader doesn't provide any, the default kernel command
1589 string provided in CMDLINE will be used.
1591 config CMDLINE_EXTEND
1592 bool "Extend bootloader kernel arguments"
1594 The command-line arguments provided by the boot loader will be
1595 appended to the default kernel command string.
1597 config CMDLINE_FORCE
1598 bool "Always use the default kernel command string"
1600 Always use the default kernel command string, even if the boot
1601 loader passes other arguments to the kernel.
1602 This is useful if you cannot or don't want to change the
1603 command-line options your boot loader passes to the kernel.

1608 depends on !ARM_LPAE && !ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM
1609 depends on !ARM_PATCH_IDIV && !ARM_PATCH_PHYS_VIRT && !SMP_ON_UP
1611 Execute-In-Place allows the kernel to run from non-volatile storage
1612 directly addressable by the CPU, such as NOR flash. This saves RAM
1613 space since the text section of the kernel is not loaded from flash
1614 to RAM. Read-write sections, such as the data section and stack,
1615 are still copied to RAM. The XIP kernel is not compressed since
1616 it has to run directly from flash, so it will take more space to
1617 store it. The flash address used to link the kernel object files,
1618 and for storing it, is configuration dependent. Therefore, if you
1619 say Y here, you must know the proper physical address where to
1620 store the kernel image depending on your own flash memory usage.
1622 Also note that the make target becomes "make xipImage" rather than
1623 "make zImage" or "make Image". The final kernel binary to put in
1624 ROM memory will be arch/arm/boot/xipImage.

1633 This is the physical address in your flash memory the kernel will
1634 be linked for and stored to. This address is dependent on your
1637 config XIP_DEFLATED_DATA
1638 bool "Store kernel .data section compressed in ROM"
1639 depends on XIP_KERNEL
1642 Before the kernel is actually executed, its .data section has to be
1643 copied to RAM from ROM. This option allows for storing that data
1644 in compressed form and decompressed to RAM rather than merely being
1645 copied, saving some precious ROM space. A possible drawback is a
1646 slightly longer boot delay.
1648 config ARCH_SUPPORTS_KEXEC
1649 def_bool (!SMP || PM_SLEEP_SMP) && MMU
1652 bool "Export atags in procfs"

1656 Should the atags used to boot the kernel be exported in an "atags"
1657 file in procfs. Useful with kexec.

1662 config AUTO_ZRELADDR
1663 bool "Auto calculation of the decompressed kernel image address" if !ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM
1664 default !(ARCH_FOOTBRIDGE || ARCH_RPC || ARCH_SA1100)
1666 ZRELADDR is the physical address where the decompressed kernel
1667 image will be placed. If AUTO_ZRELADDR is selected, the address
1668 will be determined at run-time, either by masking the current IP
1669 with 0xf8000000, or, if invalid, from the DTB passed in r2.

1680 select EFI_PARAMS_FROM_FDT
1682 select EFI_GENERIC_STUB
1683 select EFI_RUNTIME_WRAPPERS
1685 This option provides support for runtime services provided
1686 by UEFI firmware (such as non-volatile variables, realtime
1687 clock, and platform reset). A UEFI stub is also provided to
1688 allow the kernel to be booted as an EFI application. This
1689 is only useful for kernels that may run on systems that have
1693 bool "Enable support for SMBIOS (DMI) tables"
1697 This enables SMBIOS/DMI feature for systems.
1699 This option is only useful on systems that have UEFI firmware.
1700 However, even with this option, the resultant kernel should
1701 continue to boot on existing non-UEFI platforms.
1703 NOTE: This does *NOT* enable or encourage the use of DMI quirks,
1704 i.e., the the practice of identifying the platform via DMI to
1705 decide whether certain workarounds for buggy hardware and/or
1706 firmware need to be enabled. This would require the DMI subsystem
1707 to be enabled much earlier than we do on ARM, which is non-trivial.

1727 Say Y to include the NWFPE floating point emulator in the kernel.
1728 This is necessary to run most binaries. Linux does not currently
1729 support floating point hardware so you need to say Y here even if
1730 your machine has an FPA or floating point co-processor podule.
1732 You may say N here if you are going to load the Acorn FPEmulator
1733 early in the bootup.
1736 bool "Support extended precision"
1737 depends on FPE_NWFPE
1739 Say Y to include 80-bit support in the kernel floating-point
1740 emulator. Otherwise, only 32 and 64-bit support is compiled in.
1741 Note that gcc does not generate 80-bit operations by default,
1742 so in most cases this option only enlarges the size of the
1743 floating point emulator without any good reason.
1745 You almost surely want to say N here.
1748 bool "FastFPE math emulation (EXPERIMENTAL)"
1749 depends on (!AEABI || OABI_COMPAT) && !CPU_32v3
1751 Say Y here to include the FAST floating point emulator in the kernel.
1752 This is an experimental much faster emulator which now also has full
1753 precision for the mantissa. It does not support any exceptions.
1754 It is very simple, and approximately 3-6 times faster than NWFPE.
1756 It should be sufficient for most programs. It may be not suitable
1757 for scientific calculations, but you have to check this for yourself.
