The Itanium Processor Family is Intel's 64-bit successor to
the 32-bit X86 line. The IA-64 Linux project has a home
page at <http://www.linuxia64.org/> and a mailing list at
linux-ia64@linuxia64.org.

Select your IA-64 processor type. The default is Intel Itanium.
This choice is safe for all IA-64 systems, but may not perform
optimally on systems with, say, Itanium 2 or newer processors.

config IA64_GENERIC
bool "generic"
---help---
This selects the system type of your hardware. A "generic" kernel
will run on any supported IA-64 system. However, if you configure
a kernel for your specific system, it will be faster and smaller.
To find out what type of IA-64 system you have, you may want to
check the IA-64 Linux web site at <http://www.linux-ia64.org/>.
As of the time of this writing, most hardware is DIG compliant,
so the "DIG-compliant" option is usually the right choice.
HP-simulator For the HP simulator
(<http://software.hp.com/ia64linux/>).
HP-zx1 For HP zx1-based systems.
SN1-simulator For the SGI SN1 simulator.
DIG-compliant For DIG ("Developer's Interface Guide") compliant
systems.
If you don't know what to do, choose "generic".
config IA64_DIG

help
Build a kernel that runs on HP zx1-based systems. This adds support
for the zx1 I/O MMU and makes root bus bridges appear in PCI config
space (required for zx1 agpgart support).

---help---
This lets you select the page size of the kernel. For best IA-64
performance, a page size of 8KB or 16KB is recommended. For best
IA-32 compatibility, a page size of 4KB should be selected (the vast
majority of IA-32 binaries work perfectly fine with a larger page
size). For Itanium 2 or newer systems, a page size of 64KB can also
be selected.
4KB For best IA-32 compatibility
8KB For best IA-64 performance
16KB For best IA-64 performance
64KB Requires Itanium 2 or newer processor.
If you don't know what to do, choose 16KB.

config ACPI
bool

default y
---help---
ACPI/OSPM support for Linux is currently under development. As such,
this support is preliminary and EXPERIMENTAL. Configuring ACPI
support enables kernel interfaces that allow higher level software
(OSPM) to manipulate ACPI defined hardware and software interfaces,
including the evaluation of ACPI control methods. If unsure, choose
N here. Note, this option will enlarge your kernel by about 120K.
This support requires an ACPI compliant platform (hardware/firmware).
If both ACPI and Advanced Power Management (APM) support are
configured, whichever is loaded first shall be used.
This code DOES NOT currently provide a complete OSPM implementation
-- it has not yet reached APM's level of functionality. When fully
implemented, Linux ACPI/OSPM will provide a more robust functional
replacement for legacy configuration and power management
interfaces, including the Plug-and-Play BIOS specification (PnP
BIOS), the Multi-Processor Specification (MPS), and the Advanced
Power Management specification (APM).
Linux support for ACPI/OSPM is based on Intel Corporation's ACPI
Component Architecture (ACPI CA). The latest ACPI CA source code,
documentation, debug builds, and implementation status information
can be downloaded from:
<http://developer.intel.com/technology/iapc/acpi/downloads.htm>.
The ACPI Sourceforge project may also be of interest:

help
Say Y to support efficient handling of discontiguous physical memory,
for architectures which are either NUMA (Non-Uniform Memory Access)
or have huge holes in the physical address space for other reasons.
See <file:Documentation/vm/numa> for more.
config VIRTUAL_MEM_MAP
bool "Enable Virtual Mem Map"
depends on !NUMA
default y if IA64_GENERIC || IA64_DIG || IA64_HP_ZX1
help
Say Y to compile the kernel with support for a virtual mem map.
This is an alternate method of supporting large holes in the
physical address space on non NUMA machines. Since the DISCONTIGMEM
option is not supported on machines with the ZX1 chipset, this is
the only way of supporting more than 1 Gb of memory on those
machines. This code also only takes effect if a memory hole of
greater than 1 Gb is found during boot, so it is safe to enable
unless you require the DISCONTIGMEM option for your machine. If you
are unsure, say Y.
config IA64_MCA
bool "Enable IA-64 Machine Check Abort" if IA64_GENERIC || IA64_DIG || IA64_HP_ZX1

Say Y here to enable machine check support for IA-64. If you're
unsure, answer Y.
config PM
bool

default y
---help---
"Power Management" means that parts of your computer are shut
off or put into a power conserving "sleep" mode if they are not
being used. There are two competing standards for doing this: APM
and ACPI. If you want to use either one, say Y here and then also
to the requisite support below.
Power Management is most important for battery powered laptop
computers; if you have a laptop, check out the Linux Laptop home
page on the WWW at
<http://www.cs.utexas.edu/users/kharker/linux-laptop/> and the
Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
<http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
Note that, even if you say N here, Linux on the x86 architecture
will issue the hlt instruction if nothing is to be done, thereby

---help---
If you enabled support for /proc file system then the file

You have two choices here: ELF and A.OUT. Selecting ELF will make
/proc/kcore appear in ELF core format as defined by the Executable

old "a.out" format which may be necessary for some old versions
of binutils or on some architectures.
This is especially useful if you have compiled the kernel with the
"-g" option to preserve debugging information. It is mainly used
for examining kernel data structures on the live kernel so if you
don't understand what this means or are not a kernel hacker, just
leave it at its default value ELF.

programs that need an interpreter to run like Java, Python or
Emacs-Lisp. Once you have registered such a binary class with the
kernel, you can start one of those programs simply by typing in its

correct interpreter.
You can do other nice things, too. Read the file
<file:Documentation/binfmt_misc.txt> to learn how to use this
feature, and <file:Documentation/java.txt> for information about how
to include Java support.

plugged into slots found on all modern laptop computers. Another
example, used on modern desktops as well as laptops, is USB.
Enable HOTPLUG and KMOD, and build a modular kernel. Get agent
software (at <http://linux-hotplug.sourceforge.net/>) and install it.
Then your kernel will automatically call out to a user mode "policy
agent" (/sbin/hotplug) to load modules and set up software needed
to use devices as you hotplug them.

If you say Y here, your kernel will be able to manage low cost mass
storage units such as ATA/(E)IDE and ATAPI units. The most common
cases are IDE hard drives and ATAPI CD-ROM drives.
If your system is pure SCSI and doesn't use these interfaces, you
can say N here.
Integrated Disk Electronics (IDE aka ATA-1) is a connecting standard
for mass storage units such as hard disks. It was designed by
Western Digital and Compaq Computer in 1984. It was then named
ST506. Quite a number of disks use the IDE interface.
AT Attachment (ATA) is the superset of the IDE specifications.
ST506 was also called ATA-1.
Fast-IDE is ATA-2 (also named Fast ATA), Enhanced IDE (EIDE) is
ATA-3. It provides support for larger disks (up to 8.4GB by means of
the LBA standard), more disks (4 instead of 2) and for other mass
storage units such as tapes and cdrom. UDMA/33 (aka UltraDMA/33) is
ATA-4 and provides faster (and more CPU friendly) transfer modes
than previous PIO (Programmed processor Input/Output) from previous
ATA/IDE standards by means of fast DMA controllers.
ATA Packet Interface (ATAPI) is a protocol used by EIDE tape and
CD-ROM drives, similar in many respects to the SCSI protocol.
SMART IDE (Self Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology) was
designed in order to prevent data corruption and disk crash by
detecting pre hardware failure conditions (heat, access time, and
the like...). Disks built since June 1995 may follow this standard.
The kernel itself don't manage this; however there are quite a
number of user programs such as smart that can query the status of
SMART parameters disk.
If you want to compile this driver as a module ( = code which can be
inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you want),
say M here and read <file:Documentation/modules.txt>. The module
will be called ide.
For further information, please read <file:Documentation/ide.txt>.

have, say Y and find out whether you have one of the following
drives.
For each of these drivers, a file Documentation/cdrom/{driver_name}
exists. Especially in cases where you do not know exactly which kind
of drive you have you should read there. Most of these drivers use a
file drivers/cdrom/{driver_name}.h where you can define your
