acpi_skip_timer_override [HW,ACPI]
Recognize and ignore IRQ0/pin2 Interrupt Override.
For broken nForce2 BIOS resulting in XT-PIC timer.
+ acpi_use_timer_override [HW,ACPI}
+ Use timer override. For some broken Nvidia NF5 boards
+ that require a timer override, but don't have
+ HPET
acpi_dbg_layer= [HW,ACPI]
Format: <int>
floppy= [HW]
See Documentation/floppy.txt.
- ftape= [HW] Floppy Tape subsystem debugging options.
- See Documentation/ftape.txt.
-
gamecon.map[2|3]=
[HW,JOY] Multisystem joystick and NES/SNES/PSX pad
support via parallel port (up to 5 devices per port)
idle= [HW]
Format: idle=poll or idle=halt
+ ignore_loglevel [KNL]
+ Ignore loglevel setting - this will print /all/
+ kernel messages to the console. Useful for debugging.
+
ihash_entries= [KNL]
Set number of hash buckets for inode cache.
Format: <RDP>,<reset>,<pci_scan>,<verbosity>
isolcpus= [KNL,SMP] Isolate CPUs from the general scheduler.
- Format: <cpu number>,...,<cpu number>
+ Format:
+ <cpu number>,...,<cpu number>
+ or
+ <cpu number>-<cpu number> (must be a positive range in ascending order)
+ or a mixture
+ <cpu number>,...,<cpu number>-<cpu number>
This option can be used to specify one or more CPUs
to isolate from the general SMP balancing and scheduling
algorithms. The only way to move a process onto or off
emulation library even if a 387 maths coprocessor
is present.
+ noaliencache [MM, NUMA] Disables the allcoation of alien caches in
+ the slab allocator. Saves per-node memory, but will
+ impact performance on real NUMA hardware.
+
noalign [KNL,ARM]
noapic [SMP,APIC] Tells the kernel to not make use of any
machine check when some devices' config space
is read. But various workarounds are disabled
and some IOMMU drivers will not work.
+ bfsort Sort PCI devices into breadth-first order.
+ This sorting is done to get a device
+ order compatible with older (<= 2.4) kernels.
+ nobfsort Don't sort PCI devices into breadth-first order.
+
pcmv= [HW,PCMCIA] BadgePAD 4
pd. [PARIDE]
Param: "schedule" - profile schedule points.
Param: <number> - step/bucket size as a power of 2 for
statistical time based profiling.
+ Param: "sleep" - profile D-state sleeping (millisecs)
processor.max_cstate= [HW,ACPI]
Limit processor to maximum C-state
resume= [SWSUSP]
Specify the partition device for software suspend
+ resume_offset= [SWSUSP]
+ Specify the offset from the beginning of the partition
+ given by "resume=" at which the swap header is located,
+ in <PAGE_SIZE> units (needed only for swap files).
+ See Documentation/power/swsusp-and-swap-files.txt
+
rhash_entries= [KNL,NET]
Set number of hash buckets for route cache
scsi_logging= [SCSI]
+ scsi_mod.scan= [SCSI] sync (default) scans SCSI busses as they are
+ discovered. async scans them in kernel threads,
+ allowing boot to proceed. none ignores them, expecting
+ user space to do the scan.
+
selinux [SELINUX] Disable or enable SELinux at boot time.
Format: { "0" | "1" }
See security/selinux/Kconfig help text.
