73 It is safe to say 'N' here; saying 'Y' may cause additional problems
74 with the resulting binary even if you run UML in SKAS mode, and running

81 help
82 If CONFIG_MODE_TT is disabled, then this option gives you the ability
83 to force a static link of UML. Normally, if only skas mode is built
84 in to UML, it will be linked as a shared binary. This is inconvenient
85 for use in a chroot jail. So, if you intend to run UML inside a
86 chroot, and you disable CONFIG_MODE_TT, you probably want to say Y
87 here.

88 Additionally, this option enables using higher memory spaces (up to

90 to best results for this.

108 Unless you have specific needs to use TT mode (which applies almost only
109 to developers), you should say Y here.
110 SKAS mode will make use of the SKAS3 patch if it is applied on the host
111 (and your UML will run in SKAS3 mode), but if no SKAS patch is applied
112 on the host it will run in SKAS0 mode, which is anyway faster than TT
113 mode.

129 bool "Networking support"
130 help
131 Unless you really know what you are doing, you should say Y here.
132 The reason is that some programs need kernel networking support even
133 when running on a stand-alone machine that isn't connected to any
134 other computer. If you are upgrading from an older kernel, you
135 should consider updating your networking tools too because changes
136 in the kernel and the tools often go hand in hand. The tools are
137 contained in the package net-tools, the location and version number
138 of which are given in <file:Documentation/Changes>.
139
140 For a general introduction to Linux networking, it is highly
141 recommended to read the NET-HOWTO, available from
142 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.

147config HOSTFS
148 tristate "Host filesystem"
149 help
150 While the User-Mode Linux port uses its own root file system for
151 booting and normal file access, this module lets the UML user
152 access files stored on the host. It does not require any
153 network connection between the Host and UML. An example use of
154 this might be:
155
156 mount none /tmp/fromhost -t hostfs -o /tmp/umlshare
157
158 where /tmp/fromhost is an empty directory inside UML and
159 /tmp/umlshare is a directory on the host with files the UML user
160 wishes to access.
161
162 For more information, see
163 <http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/hostfs.html>.
164
165 If you'd like to be able to work with files stored on the host,
166 say Y or M here; otherwise say N.

1da177e4
LT
171 help
172 hppfs (HoneyPot ProcFS) is a filesystem which allows UML /proc
173 entries to be overridden, removed, or fabricated from the host.
174 Its purpose is to allow a UML to appear to be a physical machine
175 by removing or changing anything in /proc which gives away the
176 identity of a UML.
177
178 See <http://user-mode-linux.sf.net/hppfs.html> for more information.
179
180 You only need this if you are setting up a UML honeypot. Otherwise,
181 it is safe to say 'N' here.

183config MCONSOLE
184 bool "Management console"
185 default y
186 help
187 The user mode linux management console is a low-level interface to
188 the kernel, somewhat like the i386 SysRq interface. Since there is
189 a full-blown operating system running under every user mode linux
190 instance, there is much greater flexibility possible than with the
191 SysRq mechanism.
192
193 If you answer 'Y' to this option, to use this feature, you need the
194 mconsole client (called uml_mconsole) which is present in CVS in
195 2.4.5-9um and later (path /tools/mconsole), and is also in the
196 distribution RPM package in 2.4.6 and later.
197
198 It is safe to say 'Y' here.
199
200config MAGIC_SYSRQ
201 bool "Magic SysRq key"
202 depends on MCONSOLE
203 ---help---
204 If you say Y here, you will have some control over the system even
205 if the system crashes for example during kernel debugging (e.g., you
206 will be able to flush the buffer cache to disk, reboot the system
207 immediately or dump some status information). A key for each of the
208 possible requests is provided.
209
210 This is the feature normally accomplished by pressing a key
211 while holding SysRq (Alt+PrintScreen).
212
213 On UML, this is accomplished by sending a "sysrq" command with
214 mconsole, followed by the letter for the requested command.
215
216 The keys are documented in <file:Documentation/sysrq.txt>. Don't say Y
217 unless you really know what this hack does.

1da177e4
LT
224 help
225 This option enables UML SMP support.
226 It is NOT related to having a real SMP box. Not directly, at least.
227
228 UML implements virtual SMP by allowing as many processes to run
229 simultaneously on the host as there are virtual processors configured.
230
231 Obviously, if the host is a uniprocessor, those processes will
232 timeshare, but, inside UML, will appear to be running simultaneously.
233 If the host is a multiprocessor, then UML processes may run
234 simultaneously, depending on the host scheduler.
235
236 This, however, is supported only in TT mode. So, if you use the SKAS
237 patch on your host, switching to TT mode and enabling SMP usually gives
238 you worse performances.
239 Also, since the support for SMP has been under-developed, there could
240 be some bugs being exposed by enabling SMP.
241
242 If you don't know what to do, say N.

253 help
254 This is set to the number of layers of UMLs that this UML will be run
255 in. Normally, this is zero, meaning that it will run directly on the
256 host. Setting it to one will build a UML that can run inside a UML
257 that is running on the host. Generally, if you intend this UML to run
258 inside another UML, set CONFIG_NEST_LEVEL to one more than the host
259 UML.
260
261 Note that if the hosting UML has its CONFIG_KERNEL_HALF_GIGS set to
262 greater than one, then the guest UML should have its CONFIG_NEST_LEVEL
263 set to the host's CONFIG_NEST_LEVEL + CONFIG_KERNEL_HALF_GIGS.
264 Only change this if you are running nested UMLs.

269 default n
270 help
271 This was used to allow UML to run with big amounts of memory.
272 Currently it is unstable, so if unsure say N.
273
274 To use big amounts of memory, it is recommended to disable TT mode (i.e.
275 CONFIG_MODE_TT) and enable static linking (i.e. CONFIG_STATIC_LINK) -
276 this should allow the guest to use up to 2.75G of memory.

289 help
290 This option makes UML time deltas match wall clock deltas. This should
291 normally be enabled. The exception would be if you are debugging with
292 UML and spend long times with UML stopped at a breakpoint. In this
293 case, when UML is restarted, it will call the timer enough times to make
294 up for the time spent at the breakpoint. This could result in a
44c09201 295 noticeable lag. If this is a problem, then disable this option.
