For all architectures, this just means that you'll see a "Memory Model" choice in your architecture menu. For those that implement DISCONTIGMEM, you may eventually want to make your ARCH_DISCONTIGMEM_ENABLE a "def_bool y" and make your users select DISCONTIGMEM right out of the new choice menu. The only disadvantage might be if you have some specific things that you need in your help option to explain something about DISCONTIGMEM.

This option controls whether tracing thread support is compiled

If CONFIG_MODE_TT is disabled, then this option gives you the ability

to force a static link of UML. Normally, if only skas mode is built

in to UML, it will be linked as a shared binary. This is inconvenient

help
|

Unless you really know what you are doing, you should say Y here.
|
|
The reason is that some programs need kernel networking support even
|
|
when running on a stand-alone machine that isn't connected to any
|
|
other computer. If you are upgrading from an older kernel, you
|
|
should consider updating your networking tools too because changes
|
|
in the kernel and the tools often go hand in hand. The tools are
|
|
contained in the package net-tools, the location and version number
|
|
of which are given in <file:Documentation/Changes>.
|
|
|
|
For a general introduction to Linux networking, it is highly
|
|
recommended to read the NET-HOWTO, available from
|
|
<http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.

help
|
|
While the User-Mode Linux port uses its own root file system for
|
|
booting and normal file access, this module lets the UML user
|
|
access files stored on the host. It does not require any
|
|
network connection between the Host and UML. An example use of
|
|
this might be:
|
|
|
|
mount none /tmp/fromhost -t hostfs -o /tmp/umlshare
|
|
|
|
where /tmp/fromhost is an empty directory inside UML and
|
|
/tmp/umlshare is a directory on the host with files the UML user
|
|
wishes to access.
|
|
|
|
For more information, see
|
|
<http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/hostfs.html>.
|
|
|
|
If you'd like to be able to work with files stored on the host,
|
|
say Y or M here; otherwise say N.

config HPPFS

tristate "HoneyPot ProcFS (EXPERIMENTAL)"

depends on BROKEN
|
|
help
|
|
hppfs (HoneyPot ProcFS) is a filesystem which allows UML /proc
|
|
entries to be overridden, removed, or fabricated from the host.
|
|
Its purpose is to allow a UML to appear to be a physical machine
|
|
by removing or changing anything in /proc which gives away the
|
|
identity of a UML.
|
|
|
|
See <http://user-mode-linux.sf.net/hppfs.html> for more information.
|
|
|
|
You only need this if you are setting up a UML honeypot. Otherwise,
|
|
it is safe to say 'N' here.
|
|
|
|
If you are actively using it, please ask for it to be fixed. In this
|
|
moment, it does not work on 2.6 (it works somehow on 2.4).

config MCONSOLE

bool "Management console"
|
|
default y
|
|
help
|
|
The user mode linux management console is a low-level interface to
|
|
the kernel, somewhat like the i386 SysRq interface. Since there is
|
|
a full-blown operating system running under every user mode linux
|
|
instance, there is much greater flexibility possible than with the
|
|
SysRq mechanism.
|
|
|
|
If you answer 'Y' to this option, to use this feature, you need the
|
|
mconsole client (called uml_mconsole) which is present in CVS in
|
|
2.4.5-9um and later (path /tools/mconsole), and is also in the
|
|
distribution RPM package in 2.4.6 and later.
|
|
|

It is safe to say 'Y' here.

---help---
|
|
If you say Y here, you will have some control over the system even
|
|
if the system crashes for example during kernel debugging (e.g., you
|
|
will be able to flush the buffer cache to disk, reboot the system
|
|
immediately or dump some status information). A key for each of the
|
|
possible requests is provided.
|
|
|
|
This is the feature normally accomplished by pressing a key
|
|
while holding SysRq (Alt+PrintScreen).
|
|
|
|
On UML, this is accomplished by sending a "sysrq" command with
|
|
mconsole, followed by the letter for the requested command.
|
|
|
|
The keys are documented in <file:Documentation/sysrq.txt>. Don't say Y
|
|
unless you really know what this hack does.

config HOST_2G_2G

help
|
|
This is needed when the host on which you run has a 2G/2G memory
|
|
split, instead of the customary 3G/1G.
|
|
|
|
Note that to enable such a host
|
|
configuration, which makes sense only in some cases, you need special
|
|
host patches.
|
|
|
|
So, if you do not know what to do here, say 'N'.

config SMP

default n

|
|
help
|
|
This option enables UML SMP support.
|
|
It is NOT related to having a real SMP box. Not directly, at least.
|
|
|
|
UML implements virtual SMP by allowing as many processes to run
|
|
simultaneously on the host as there are virtual processors configured.
|
|
|
|
Obviously, if the host is a uniprocessor, those processes will
|
|
timeshare, but, inside UML, will appear to be running simultaneously.
|
|
If the host is a multiprocessor, then UML processes may run
|
|
simultaneously, depending on the host scheduler.
|
|
|
|
This, however, is supported only in TT mode. So, if you use the SKAS
|
|
patch on your host, switching to TT mode and enabling SMP usually gives
|
|
you worse performances.
|
|
Also, since the support for SMP has been under-developed, there could
|
|
be some bugs being exposed by enabling SMP.
|
|
|
|
If you don't know what to do, say N.

help
|
|
This is set to the number of layers of UMLs that this UML will be run
|
|
in. Normally, this is zero, meaning that it will run directly on the
|
|
host. Setting it to one will build a UML that can run inside a UML
|
|
that is running on the host. Generally, if you intend this UML to run
|
|
inside another UML, set CONFIG_NEST_LEVEL to one more than the host
|
|
UML.
|
|
|
|
Note that if the hosting UML has its CONFIG_KERNEL_HALF_GIGS set to
|
|
greater than one, then the guest UML should have its CONFIG_NEST_LEVEL
|
|
set to the host's CONFIG_NEST_LEVEL + CONFIG_KERNEL_HALF_GIGS.

Only change this if you are running nested UMLs.

This option determines the size of UML kernel stacks. They will

help
|

This option makes UML time deltas match wall clock deltas. This should
|
|
normally be enabled. The exception would be if you are debugging with
|
|
UML and spend long times with UML stopped at a breakpoint. In this
|
|
case, when UML is restarted, it will call the timer enough times to make
|
|
up for the time spent at the breakpoint. This could result in a
|
|
noticable lag. If this is a problem, then disable this option.
