151 Select this option if you have a 64 bit IBM zSeries machine
152 and want to use the 64 bit addressing mode.
162 bool "Symmetric multi-processing support"
164 This enables support for systems with more than one CPU. If you have
165 a system with only one CPU, like most personal computers, say N. If
166 you have a system with more than one CPU, say Y.
168 If you say N here, the kernel will run on single and multiprocessor
169 machines, but will use only one CPU of a multiprocessor machine. If
170 you say Y here, the kernel will run on many, but not all,
171 singleprocessor machines. On a singleprocessor machine, the kernel
172 will run faster if you say N here.
174 See also the SMP-HOWTO available at
175 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
177 Even if you don't know what to do here, say Y.
180 int "Maximum number of CPUs (2-64)"
183 default "32" if !64BIT
184 default "64" if 64BIT
186 This allows you to specify the maximum number of CPUs which this
187 kernel will support. The maximum supported value is 64 and the
188 minimum value which makes sense is 2.
190 This is purely to save memory - each supported CPU adds
191 approximately sixteen kilobytes to the kernel image.
194 bool "Support for hot-pluggable CPUs"
199 Say Y here to be able to turn CPUs off and on. CPUs
200 can be controlled through /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu#.
201 Say N if you want to disable CPU hotplug.
204 bool "Book scheduler support"
207 Book scheduler support improves the CPU scheduler's decision making
208 when dealing with machines that have several books.
211 bool "IEEE FPU emulation"
214 This option is required for IEEE compliant floating point arithmetic
215 on older S/390 machines. Say Y unless you know your machine doesn't
219 bool "Kernel support for 31 bit emulation"
221 select COMPAT_BINFMT_ELF
223 Select this option if you want to enable your system kernel to
224 handle system-calls from ELF binaries for 31 bit ESA. This option
225 (and some other stuff like libraries and such) is needed for
226 executing 31 bit applications. It is safe to say "Y".
228 config SYSVIPC_COMPAT
230 depends on COMPAT && SYSVIPC
237 config S390_EXEC_PROTECT
238 bool "Data execute protection"
240 This option allows to enable a buffer overflow protection for user
241 space programs and it also selects the addressing mode option above.
242 The kernel parameter noexec=on will enable this feature and also
243 switch the addressing modes, default is disabled. Enabling this (via
244 kernel parameter) on machines earlier than IBM System z9-109 EC/BC
245 will reduce system performance.
247 comment "Code generation options"
250 prompt "Processor type"
254 bool "S/390 model G5 and G6"
257 Select this to build a 31 bit kernel that works
258 on all S/390 and zSeries machines.
261 bool "IBM eServer zSeries model z800 and z900"
263 Select this to optimize for zSeries machines. This
264 will enable some optimizations that are not available
265 on older 31 bit only CPUs.
268 bool "IBM eServer zSeries model z890 and z990"
270 Select this enable optimizations for model z890/z990.
271 This will be slightly faster but does not work on
272 older machines such as the z900.
277 Select this to enable optimizations for IBM System z9-109, IBM
278 System z9 Enterprise Class (z9 EC), and IBM System z9 Business
279 Class (z9 BC). The kernel will be slightly faster but will not
280 work on older machines such as the z990, z890, z900, and z800.
283 bool "IBM System z10"
285 Select this to enable optimizations for IBM System z10. The
286 kernel will be slightly faster but will not work on older
287 machines such as the z990, z890, z900, z800, z9-109, z9-ec
291 bool "IBM zEnterprise 196"
293 Select this to enable optimizations for IBM zEnterprise 196.
294 The kernel will be slightly faster but will not work on older
295 machines such as the z990, z890, z900, z800, z9-109, z9-ec,
296 z9-bc, z10-ec and z10-bc.
301 bool "Pack kernel stack"
303 This option enables the compiler option -mkernel-backchain if it
304 is available. If the option is available the compiler supports
305 the new stack layout which dramatically reduces the minimum stack
306 frame size. With an old compiler a non-leaf function needs a
307 minimum of 96 bytes on 31 bit and 160 bytes on 64 bit. With
308 -mkernel-backchain the minimum size drops to 16 byte on 31 bit
309 and 24 byte on 64 bit.
311 Say Y if you are unsure.
314 bool "Use 8kb for kernel stack instead of 16kb"
315 depends on PACK_STACK && 64BIT && !LOCKDEP
317 If you say Y here and the compiler supports the -mkernel-backchain
318 option the kernel will use a smaller kernel stack size. The reduced
319 size is 8kb instead of 16kb. This allows to run more threads on a
320 system and reduces the pressure on the memory management for higher
321 order page allocations.
323 Say N if you are unsure.
326 bool "Detect kernel stack overflow"
328 This option enables the compiler option -mstack-guard and
329 -mstack-size if they are available. If the compiler supports them
330 it will emit additional code to each function prolog to trigger
331 an illegal operation if the kernel stack is about to overflow.
333 Say N if you are unsure.
336 int "Size of the guard area (128-1024)"
338 depends on CHECK_STACK
341 This allows you to specify the size of the guard area at the lower
342 end of the kernel stack. If the kernel stack points into the guard
343 area on function entry an illegal operation is triggered. The size
344 needs to be a power of 2. Please keep in mind that the size of an
345 interrupt frame is 184 bytes for 31 bit and 328 bytes on 64 bit.
346 The minimum size for the stack guard should be 256 for 31 bit and
350 bool "Emit compiler warnings for function with broken stack usage"
352 This option enables the compiler options -mwarn-framesize and
353 -mwarn-dynamicstack. If the compiler supports these options it
354 will generate warnings for function which either use alloca or
355 create a stack frame bigger than CONFIG_WARN_STACK_SIZE.
357 Say N if you are unsure.
359 config WARN_STACK_SIZE
360 int "Maximum frame size considered safe (128-2048)"
362 depends on WARN_STACK
365 This allows you to specify the maximum frame size a function may
366 have without the compiler complaining about it.

407 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
408 module will be called qdio.
413 tristate "Support for CHSC subchannels"
415 This driver allows usage of CHSC subchannels. A CHSC subchannel
416 is usually present on LPAR only.
417 The driver creates a device /dev/chsc, which may be used to
418 obtain I/O configuration information about the machine and
419 to issue asynchronous chsc commands (DANGEROUS).
420 You will usually only want to use this interface on a special
421 LPAR designated for system management.
423 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
424 module will be called chsc_sch.
431 bool "Builtin IPL record support"
433 If you want to use the produced kernel to IPL directly from a
434 device, you have to merge a bootsector specific to the device
435 into the first bytes of the kernel. You will have to select the
439 prompt "IPL method generated into head.S"
443 Select "tape" if you want to IPL the image from a Tape.
445 Select "vm_reader" if you are running under VM/ESA and want
446 to IPL the image from the emulated card reader.

463 bool "Pseudo page fault support"
465 Select this option, if you want to use PFAULT pseudo page fault
466 handling under VM. If running native or in LPAR, this option
467 has no effect. If your VM does not support PFAULT, PAGEEX
468 pseudo page fault handling will be used.
469 Note that VM 4.2 supports PFAULT but has a bug in its
470 implementation that causes some problems.
471 Everybody who wants to run Linux under VM != VM4.2 should select
475 bool "VM shared kernel support"
477 Select this option, if you want to share the text segment of the
478 Linux kernel between different VM guests. This reduces memory
479 usage with lots of guests but greatly increases kernel size.
480 Also if a kernel was IPL'ed from a shared segment the kexec system
482 You should only select this option if you know what you are
483 doing and want to exploit this feature.
486 tristate "Cooperative memory management"
488 Select this option, if you want to enable the kernel interface
489 to reduce the memory size of the system. This is accomplished
490 by allocating pages of memory and put them "on hold". This only
491 makes sense for a system running under VM where the unused pages
492 will be reused by VM for other guest systems. The interface
493 allows an external monitor to balance memory of many systems.
494 Everybody who wants to run Linux under VM should select this
498 bool "IUCV special message interface to cooperative memory management"
499 depends on CMM && (SMSGIUCV=y || CMM=SMSGIUCV)
501 Select this option to enable the special message interface to
502 the cooperative memory management.
505 bool "Linux - VM Monitor Stream, base infrastructure"
508 This provides a kernel interface for creating and updating z/VM APPLDATA
509 monitor records. The monitor records are updated at certain time
510 intervals, once the timer is started.
511 Writing 1 or 0 to /proc/appldata/timer starts(1) or stops(0) the timer,
512 i.e. enables or disables monitoring on the Linux side.
513 A custom interval value (in seconds) can be written to
514 /proc/appldata/interval.
516 Defaults are 60 seconds interval and timer off.
517 The /proc entries can also be read from, showing the current settings.
520 tristate "Monitor memory management statistics"
521 depends on APPLDATA_BASE && VM_EVENT_COUNTERS
523 This provides memory management related data to the Linux - VM Monitor
524 Stream, like paging/swapping rate, memory utilisation, etc.
525 Writing 1 or 0 to /proc/appldata/memory creates(1) or removes(0) a z/VM
526 APPLDATA monitor record, i.e. enables or disables monitoring this record
530 The /proc entry can also be read from, showing the current settings.

537 depends on APPLDATA_BASE
539 This provides OS related data to the Linux - VM Monitor Stream, like
540 CPU utilisation, etc.

549 config APPLDATA_NET_SUM
550 tristate "Monitor overall network statistics"
551 depends on APPLDATA_BASE && NET
553 This provides network related data to the Linux - VM Monitor Stream,
554 currently there is only a total sum of network I/O statistics, no
556 Writing 1 or 0 to /proc/appldata/net_sum creates(1) or removes(0) a z/VM
557 APPLDATA monitor record, i.e. enables or disables monitoring this record

567 bool "s390 hypervisor file system support"
568 select SYS_HYPERVISOR
571 This is a virtual file system intended to provide accounting
572 information in an s390 hypervisor environment.
575 bool "kexec system call"
577 kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your
578 current kernel, and to start another kernel. It is like a reboot
579 but is independent of hardware/microcode support.
582 bool "zfcpdump support"
586 Select this option if you want to build an zfcpdump enabled kernel.
587 Refer to <file:Documentation/s390/zfcpdump.txt> for more details on this.

591 depends on 64BIT && EXPERIMENTAL
594 select VIRTIO_CONSOLE
596 Select this option if you want to run the kernel as a guest under
597 the KVM hypervisor. This will add detection for KVM as well as a
598 virtio transport. If KVM is detected, the virtio console will be
602 bool "Enable seccomp to safely compute untrusted bytecode"
606 This kernel feature is useful for number crunching applications
607 that may need to compute untrusted bytecode during their
608 execution. By using pipes or other transports made available to
609 the process as file descriptors supporting the read/write
610 syscalls, it's possible to isolate those applications in
611 their own address space using seccomp. Once seccomp is
612 enabled via /proc/<pid>/seccomp, it cannot be disabled
613 and the task is only allowed to execute a few safe syscalls
614 defined by each seccomp mode.
