|
=== kernel-debug ===
|
|
A Debug Version of the Kernel
|
|
|
|
This kernel has several debug facilities enabled that hurt performance.
|
|
Only use this kernel when investigating problems.
|
|
|
|
=== kernel-default ===
|
|
The Standard Kernel
|
|
|
|
The standard kernel for both uniprocessor and multiprocessor systems.
|
|
|
|
=== kernel-pae ===
|
|
Kernel with PAE Support
|
|
|
|
This kernel supports up to 64GB of main memory. It requires Physical
|
|
Addressing Extensions (PAE), which were introduced with the Pentium Pro
|
|
processor.
|
|
|
|
PAE is not only more physical address space but also important for the
|
|
"no execute" feature which disables execution of code that is marked as
|
|
non-executable. Therefore, the PAE kernel should be used on any systems
|
|
that support it, regardless of the amount of main memory.
|
|
|
|
=== kernel-vanilla ===
|
|
The Standard Kernel - without any SUSE patches
|
|
|
|
The standard kernel - without any SUSE patches
|
|
|
|
=== kernel-xen ===
|
|
The Xen Kernel
|
|
|
|
The Linux kernel for Xen paravirtualization.
|
|
|
|
This kernel can be used both as the domain0 ("xen0") and as an
|
|
unprivileged ("xenU") kernel.
|
|
|
|
=== kernel-ec2 ===
|
|
The Amazon EC2 Xen Kernel
|
|
|
|
The Linux kernel for Xen paravirtualization.
|
|
|
|
This kernel can only be used as an unprivileged ("xenU") kernel
|
|
(mainly, but not exclusively, for Amazon EC2).
|
|
|
|
=== kernel-64kb ===
|
|
Kernel with 64kb PAGE_SIZE
|
|
|
|
This kernel is identical to the default kernel, but is configured with
|
|
64kb page size granule. Its main purpose is to serve as compatibility
|
|
kernel for systems that were installed when the default kernel was still
|
|
configured with 64kb page size granule.
|
|
|
|
=== kernel-lpae ===
|
|
Kernel for LPAE enabled systems
|
|
|
|
The kernel for all 32-bit ARM platforms that support LPAE. This includes all
|
|
Cortex A15 based SoCs, like the Exynos5, OMAP5 or Calxeda ECX-2000.
|
|
|
|
=== kernel-cubox ===
|
|
Kernel for SolidRun Cubox
|
|
|
|
The standard kernel for Marvell Dove SoC, as found in
|
|
the SolidRun Cubox.
|
|
|
|
=== kernel-exynos ===
|
|
Kernel for Samsung's Exynos SoC
|
|
|
|
The standard kernel for Samsung's Exynos 4 & 5 SoC, as found in the Origen board.
|
|
|
|
=== kernel-syzkaller ===
|
|
Kernel used for fuzzing by syzkaller
|
|
|
|
The syzkaller kernel should be used solely in a virtual machine by
|
|
syzkaller only. It supports kernel coverage and enables a lot of slow
|
|
debugging options.
|
|
|
|
=== kernel-versatile ===
|
|
Kernel for Versatile SoC
|
|
|
|
The standard kernel for Versatile SoC, or for emulation with QEMU.
|
|
|
|
=== kernel-zfcpdump ===
|
|
The IBM System Z zfcpdump Kernel
|
|
|
|
The Linux kernel for booting the zfcpdump process on IBM System Z.
|
|
|
|
This kernel should only be used by the s390-tools package. This kernel
|
|
should not be installed as a regular booting kernel.
