This patch adds support for Dynamic Tick Timer for ARM. Dynamic Tick is
also known as VST (Variable Scheduling Timeouts).
Dynamic Tick has been in use in the OMAP tree since last October. The
patch is not intrusive, and does not do anything unless CONFIG_NO_IDLE_HZ
is defined. This patch has the following fixed based on comments from
RMK:
- Time is updated before calling interrupt handlers.
- Added new interrupt flag SA_TIMER to avoid duplicate timer interrupts
- Moved struct dyn_tick_timer to time.h until we at some point probably
have an arch independent dyn-tick.h
- Cleaned up testing for DYN_TICK_ENABLED in irq.c
I've cleaned up this patch to fix some remaining issues:
- Call the timer tick handler with irqs disabled, as it would be from
a normal interrupt
- if we have a dyn_tick, we better implement all methods.
- generic timer_dyn_reprogram() call, to be called before sleeping
- added command line option - "dyntick=" to allow boot-time control
of this feature

The Extended Industry Standard Architecture (EISA) bus was

developed as an open alternative to the IBM MicroChannel bus.

The EISA bus provided some of the features of the IBM MicroChannel

bus while maintaining backward compatibility with cards made for

the older ISA bus. The EISA bus saw limited use between 1988 and
|
|
1995 when it was made obsolete by the PCI bus.

This is necessary to run most binaries. Linux does not currently

your machine has an FPA or floating point co-processor podule.

Say Y here to include the FAST floating point emulator in the kernel.

This is an experimental much faster emulator which now also has full

precision for the mantissa. It does not support any exceptions.
|

It is very simple, and approximately 3-6 times faster than NWFPE.
|
|
|
|
It should be sufficient for most programs. It may be not suitable
|
|
for scientific calculations, but you have to check this for yourself.

If you do not feel you need a faster FP emulation you should better

choose NWFPE.

---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.linux-on-laptops.com/> or
|
|
Tuxmobil - Linux on Mobile Computers at <http://www.tuxmobil.org/>
|
|
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
|
|
sending the processor to sleep and saving power.
|
|
|

config APM

---help---
|
|
APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
|
|
techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
|
|
APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
|
|
reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
|
|
battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
|
|
notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
|
|
|
|
If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
|
|
BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
|
|
|
|
Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
|
|
machines with more than one CPU.
|
|
|
|
In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
|
|
and more information, read <file:Documentation/pm.txt> and the
|
|
Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
|
|
<http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.

This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
|
|
manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
|
|
VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
|
|
|
|
This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
|
|
486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
|
|
desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
|
|
may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
|
|
|
|
Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
|
|
much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
|
|
random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
|
|
anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
|
|
APM in your BIOS).
|
|
|
|
Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
|
|
"weird" problems:
|
|
|
|
1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
|
|
enabled.
|
|
2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
|
|
3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
|
|
the "no387" option to the kernel
|
|
4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
|
|
5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
|
|
all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
|
|
6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
|
|
7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
|
|
8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
|
|
9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
|
|
10) install a better fan for the CPU
|
|
11) exchange RAM chips
|
|
12) exchange the motherboard.
