- 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:
- The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
- Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
- these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
- The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
- MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
- write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
- and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
- 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.

- help
- APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
- techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
- APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
- reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
- battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
- notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
- If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
- BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
- Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
- machines with more than one CPU.
- In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
- and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/apm-acpi.rst>
- and the Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
- <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
- This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
- manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
- VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
- This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
- 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
- desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
- may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
- Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
- much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
- random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
- anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
- APM in your BIOS).
- Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
- "weird" problems:
- 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
- enabled.
- 2) pass the "idle=poll" option to the kernel
- 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
- the "no387" option to the kernel
- 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
- 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
- all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
- 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
- 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
- 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
- 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
- 10) install a better fan for the CPU
- 11) exchange RAM chips
- 12) exchange the motherboard.

- specification: "When disabled, the APM BIOS does not automatically
- power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend
- State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
- This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
- feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
- should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
- will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
- this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
- support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
- this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba

- help
- Enable calls to APM CPU Idle/CPU Busy inside the kernel's idle loop.
- On some machines, this can activate improved power savings, such as
- a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
- are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,
- 333 mS). On some machines, this will cause a hang at boot time or
- whenever the CPU becomes idle. (On machines with more than one CPU,
- this option does nothing.)

- when using the X Window system. This also doesn't have anything to
- do with your VESA-compliant power-saving monitor. Further, this
- option doesn't work for all laptops -- it might not turn off your

- config APM_ALLOW_INTS
- bool "Allow interrupts during APM BIOS calls"

- many of the newer IBM Thinkpads. If you experience hangs when you
- suspend, try setting this to Y. Otherwise, say N.
