47	  Kprobes allows you to trap at almost any kernel address and

57	help
58	  This option enables a transparent branch optimization that
59	  makes certain almost-always-true or almost-always-false branch
60	  conditions even cheaper to execute within the kernel.
61
62	  Certain performance-sensitive kernel code, such as trace points,
63	  scheduler functionality, networking code and KVM have such
64	  branches and include support for this optimization technique.
65
66	  If it is detected that the compiler has support for "asm goto",
67	  the kernel will compile such branches with just a nop
68	  instruction. When the condition flag is toggled to true, the
69	  nop will be converted to a jump instruction to execute the
70	  conditional block of instructions.
71
72	  This technique lowers overhead and stress on the branch prediction
73	  of the processor and generally makes the kernel faster. The update
74	  of the condition is slower, but those are always very rare.
75

112	  libraries, by executing handler functions when the probes
113	  are hit by user-space applications.

122	  Some architectures require 64 bit accesses to be 64 bit
123	  aligned, which also requires structs containing 64 bit values
124	  to be 64 bit aligned too. This includes some 32 bit
125	  architectures which can do 64 bit accesses, as well as 64 bit
126	  architectures without unaligned access.
127
128	  This symbol should be selected by an architecture if 64 bit

138	  Some architectures are unable to perform unaligned accesses
139	  without the use of get_unaligned/put_unaligned. Others are
140	  unable to perform such accesses efficiently (e.g. trap on
141	  unaligned access and require fixing it up in the exception
142	  handler.)
143
144	  This symbol should be selected by an architecture if it can
145	  perform unaligned accesses efficiently to allow different
146	  code paths to be selected for these cases. Some network
147	  drivers, for example, could opt to not fix up alignment
148	  problems with received packets if doing so would not help
149	  much.

154config ARCH_USE_BUILTIN_BSWAP
155	bool
156	help
157	  Modern versions of GCC (since 4.4) have builtin functions
158	  for handling byte-swapping. Using these, instead of the old
159	  inline assembler that the architecture code provides in the
160	  __arch_bswapXX() macros, allows the compiler to see what's
161	  happening and offers more opportunity for optimisation. In
162	  particular, the compiler will be able to combine the byteswap
163	  with a nearby load or store and use load-and-swap or
164	  store-and-swap instructions if the architecture has them. It
165	  should almost *never* result in code which is worse than the
166	  hand-coded assembler in <asm/swab.h>.  But just in case it
167	  does, the use of the builtins is optional.
168
169	  Any architecture with load-and-swap or store-and-swap
170	  instructions should set this. And it shouldn't hurt to set it
171	  on architectures that don't have such instructions.
