config SMP

	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.



config NR_CPUS

config HIGHMEM

	bool "Highmem support"

	depends on !64BIT && BROKEN

	default n

	help

	  This was used to allow UML to run with big amounts of memory.

	  Currently it is unstable, so if unsure say N.



	  To use big amounts of memory, it is recommended enable static

	  linking (i.e. CONFIG_STATIC_LINK) - this should allow the

	  guest to use up to 2.75G of memory.



config KERNEL_STACK_ORDER
