vector= [IA-64,SMP]
vector=percpu: enable percpu vector domain
video= [FB] Frame buffer configuration
See Documentation/fb/modedb.txt.
virtio_mmio.device=
[VMMIO] Memory mapped virtio (platform) device.
<size>@<baseaddr>:<irq>[:<id>]
where:
<size> := size (can use standard suffixes
like K, M and G)
<baseaddr> := physical base address
<irq> := interrupt number (as passed to
request_irq())
<id> := (optional) platform device id
example:
virtio_mmio.device=1K@0x100b0000:48:7
Can be used multiple times for multiple devices.
vga= [BOOT,X86-32] Select a particular video mode
See Documentation/x86/boot.txt and
Use vga=ask for menu.
This is actually a boot loader parameter; the value is
passed to the kernel using a special protocol.
vmalloc=nn[KMG] [KNL,BOOT] Forces the vmalloc area to have an exact
size of <nn>. This can be used to increase the
minimum size (128MB on x86). It can also be used to
decrease the size and leave more room for directly
mapped kernel RAM.
vmhalt= [KNL,S390] Perform z/VM CP command after system halt.
Format: <command>
vmpanic= [KNL,S390] Perform z/VM CP command after kernel panic.
Format: <command>
vmpoff= [KNL,S390] Perform z/VM CP command after power off.
Format: <command>
vsyscall= [X86-64]
Controls the behavior of vsyscalls (i.e. calls to
fixed addresses of 0xffffffffff600x00 from legacy
code). Most statically-linked binaries and older
versions of glibc use these calls. Because these
functions are at fixed addresses, they make nice
targets for exploits that can control RIP.
emulate [default] Vsyscalls turn into traps and are
emulated reasonably safely.
native Vsyscalls are native syscall instructions.
This is a little bit faster than trapping
and makes a few dynamic recompilers work
better than they would in emulation mode.
It also makes exploits much easier to write.
none Vsyscalls don't work at all. This makes
them quite hard to use for exploits but
might break your system.
vt.cur_default= [VT] Default cursor shape.
Format: 0xCCBBAA, where AA, BB, and CC are the same as
the parameters of the <Esc>[?A;B;Cc escape sequence;
see VGA-softcursor.txt. Default: 2 = underline.

vt.default_blu= [VT]
Format: <blue0>,<blue1>,<blue2>,...,<blue15>
Change the default blue palette of the console.
This is a 16-member array composed of values
ranging from 0-255.
vt.default_grn= [VT]
Format: <green0>,<green1>,<green2>,...,<green15>
Change the default green palette of the console.
This is a 16-member array composed of values
ranging from 0-255.
vt.default_red= [VT]
Format: <red0>,<red1>,<red2>,...,<red15>
Change the default red palette of the console.
This is a 16-member array composed of values
ranging from 0-255.
vt.default_utf8=
[VT]
Format=<0|1>
Set system-wide default UTF-8 mode for all tty's.
Default is 1, i.e. UTF-8 mode is enabled for all
newly opened terminals.
vt.global_cursor_default=
[VT]
Format=<-1|0|1>
Set system-wide default for whether a cursor
is shown on new VTs. Default is -1,
i.e. cursors will be created by default unless
overridden by individual drivers. 0 will hide
cursors, 1 will display them.
watchdog timers [HW,WDT] For information on watchdog timers,
see Documentation/watchdog/watchdog-parameters.txt
or other driver-specific files in the
Documentation/watchdog/ directory.
x2apic_phys [X86-64,APIC] Use x2apic physical mode instead of
default x2apic cluster mode on platforms
supporting x2apic.
x86_mrst_timer= [X86-32,APBT]
Choose timer option for x86 Moorestown MID platform.
Two valid options are apbt timer only and lapic timer
plus one apbt timer for broadcast timer.
x86_mrst_timer=apbt_only | lapic_and_apbt
xd= [HW,XT] Original XT pre-IDE (RLL encoded) disks.
xd_geo= See header of drivers/block/xd.c.
xen_emul_unplug= [HW,X86,XEN]
Unplug Xen emulated devices
Format: [unplug0,][unplug1]
ide-disks -- unplug primary master IDE devices
aux-ide-disks -- unplug non-primary-master IDE devices
nics -- unplug network devices
all -- unplug all emulated devices (NICs and IDE disks)
unnecessary -- unplugging emulated devices is
unnecessary even if the host did not respond to
the unplug protocol
never -- do not unplug even if version check succeeds
Format:
<irq>,<irq_mask>,<io>,<full_duplex>,<do_sound>,<lockup_hack>[,<irq2>[,<irq3>[,<irq4>]]]
