8	  - Re-run Kconfig when the compiler is updated
9	    The 'default' property references the environment variable,
10	    CC_VERSION_TEXT so it is recorded in include/config/auto.conf.cmd.
11	    When the compiler is updated, Kconfig will be invoked.
12
13	  - Ensure full rebuild when the compiler is updated
14	    include/linux/compiler-version.h contains this option in the comment
15	    line so fixdep adds include/config/CC_VERSION_TEXT into the
16	    auto-generated dependency. When the compiler is updated, syncconfig

263	  The linux kernel is a kind of self-extracting executable.
264	  Several compression algorithms are available, which differ

309	  XZ uses the LZMA2 algorithm and instruction set specific
310	  BCJ filters which can improve compression ratio of executable
311	  code. The size of the kernel is about 30% smaller with XZ in
312	  comparison to gzip. On architectures for which there is a BCJ
313	  filter (i386, x86_64, ARM, IA-64, PowerPC, and SPARC), XZ
314	  will create a few percent smaller kernel than plain LZMA.
315
316	  The speed is about the same as with LZMA: The decompression
317	  speed of XZ is better than that of bzip2 but worse than gzip
318	  and LZO. Compression is slow.

345	  with fast decompression speed. It will compress better than GZIP and
346	  decompress around the same speed as LZO, but slower than LZ4. You
347	  will need at least 192 KB RAM or more for booting. The zstd command

832	  the precision of clamping aggregation and tracking at run-time.
833
834	  For example, with the minimum configuration value we will have 5
835	  clamp buckets tracking 20% utilization each. A 25% boosted tasks will
836	  be refcounted in the [20..39]% bucket and will set the bucket clamp
837	  effective value to 25%.
838	  If a second 30% boosted task should be co-scheduled on the same CPU,
839	  that task will be refcounted in the same bucket of the first task and
840	  it will boost the bucket clamp effective value to 30%.
841	  The clamp effective value of a bucket is reset to its nominal value
842	  (20% in the example above) when there are no more tasks refcounted in
843	  that bucket.
844
845	  An additional boost/capping margin can be added to some tasks. In the
846	  example above the 25% task will be boosted to 30% until it exits the
847	  CPU. If that should be considered not acceptable on certain systems,
848	  it's always possible to reduce the margin by increasing the number of
849	  clamp buckets to trade off used memory for run-time tracking

1839	  Software events are supported either built-in or via the
1840	  use of generic tracepoints.
1841
1842	  Most modern CPUs support performance events via performance
1843	  counter registers. These registers count the number of certain
1844	  types of hw events: such as instructions executed, cachemisses
1845	  suffered, or branches mis-predicted - without slowing down the
1846	  kernel or applications. These registers can also trigger interrupts
1847	  when a threshold number of events have passed - and can thus be
1848	  used to profile the code that runs on that CPU.
1849
1850	  The Linux Performance Event subsystem provides an abstraction of
1851	  these software and hardware event capabilities, available via a
1852	  system call and used by the "perf" utility in tools/perf/. It
