Others are 51 unable to perform such accesses efficiently (e.g. trap on 52 unaligned access and require fixing it up in the exception 53 handler.) 54 55 This symbol should be selected by an architecture if it can 56 perform unaligned accesses efficiently to allow different 57 code paths to be selected for these cases. Some network 58 drivers, for example, could opt to not fix up alignment 59 problems with received packets if doing so would not help 60 much. 61 62 See Documentation/unaligned-memory-access.txt for more 63 information on the topic of unaligned memory accesses. 64 65config HAVE_SYSCALL_WRAPPERS 66 bool 67 68config KRETPROBES 69 def_bool y 70 depends on KPROBES && HAVE_KRETPROBES 71 72config HAVE_IOREMAP_PROT 73 bool 74 75config HAVE_KPROBES 76 bool 77 78config HAVE_KRETPROBES 79 bool 80 81# 82# An arch should select this if it provides all these things: 83# 84# task_pt_regs() in asm/processor.h or asm/ptrace.h 85# arch_has_single_step() if there is hardware single-step support 86# arch_has_block_step() if there is hardware block-step support 87# asm/syscall.h supplying asm-generic/syscall.h interface 88# linux/regset.h user_regset interfaces 89# CORE_DUMP_USE_REGSET #define'd in linux/elf.h 90# TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE calls tracehook_report_syscall_{entry,exit} 91# TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME calls tracehook_notify_resume() 92# signal delivery calls tracehook_signal_handler() 93# 94config HAVE_ARCH_TRACEHOOK 95 bool 96 97config HAVE_DMA_ATTRS 98 bool 99 100config USE_GENERIC_SMP_HELPERS 101 bool 102 103config HAVE_CLK 104 bool 105 help 106 The <linux/clk.h> calls support software clock gating and 107 thus are a key power management tool on many systems. 108 109config HAVE_DMA_API_DEBUG 110 bool 111
