59	help
60	  Kprobes allows you to trap at almost any kernel address and
61	  execute a callback function.  register_kprobe() establishes
62	  a probepoint and specifies the callback.  Kprobes is useful

70	help
71	  This option enables a transparent branch optimization that
72	  makes certain almost-always-true or almost-always-false branch
73	  conditions even cheaper to execute within the kernel.
74
75	  Certain performance-sensitive kernel code, such as trace points,
76	  scheduler functionality, networking code and KVM have such
77	  branches and include support for this optimization technique.
78
79	  If it is detected that the compiler has support for "asm goto",
80	  the kernel will compile such branches with just a nop
81	  instruction. When the condition flag is toggled to true, the
82	  nop will be converted to a jump instruction to execute the
83	  conditional block of instructions.
84
85	  This technique lowers overhead and stress on the branch prediction
86	  of the processor and generally makes the kernel faster. The update
87	  of the condition is slower, but those are always very rare.
88

122	  Uprobes is the user-space counterpart to kprobes: they
123	  enable instrumentation applications (such as 'perf probe')
124	  to establish unintrusive probes in user-space binaries and
125	  libraries, by executing handler functions when the probes
126	  are hit by user-space applications.

132config HAVE_64BIT_ALIGNED_ACCESS

135	  Some architectures require 64 bit accesses to be 64 bit
136	  aligned, which also requires structs containing 64 bit values
137	  to be 64 bit aligned too. This includes some 32 bit
138	  architectures which can do 64 bit accesses, as well as 64 bit
139	  architectures without unaligned access.
140
141	  This symbol should be selected by an architecture if 64 bit
142	  accesses are required to be 64 bit aligned in this way even

146	  more information on the topic of unaligned memory accesses.
147
148config HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS
149	bool
150	help
151	  Some architectures are unable to perform unaligned accesses
152	  without the use of get_unaligned/put_unaligned. Others are
153	  unable to perform such accesses efficiently (e.g. trap on
154	  unaligned access and require fixing it up in the exception
155	  handler.)
156
157	  This symbol should be selected by an architecture if it can
158	  perform unaligned accesses efficiently to allow different
159	  code paths to be selected for these cases. Some network
160	  drivers, for example, could opt to not fix up alignment
161	  problems with received packets if doing so would not help
162	  much.

165	  information on the topic of unaligned memory accesses.

167config ARCH_USE_BUILTIN_BSWAP
168	bool
169	help
170	  Modern versions of GCC (since 4.4) have builtin functions
171	  for handling byte-swapping. Using these, instead of the old
172	  inline assembler that the architecture code provides in the
173	  __arch_bswapXX() macros, allows the compiler to see what's
174	  happening and offers more opportunity for optimisation. In
175	  particular, the compiler will be able to combine the byteswap
176	  with a nearby load or store and use load-and-swap or
177	  store-and-swap instructions if the architecture has them. It
178	  should almost *never* result in code which is worse than the
179	  hand-coded assembler in <asm/swab.h>.  But just in case it
180	  does, the use of the builtins is optional.
181
182	  Any architecture with load-and-swap or store-and-swap
183	  instructions should set this. And it shouldn't hurt to set it
184	  on architectures that don't have such instructions.

1215	    This may rule out many 32-bit architectures.
1216
1217	  - Stacks in vmalloc space need to work reliably.  For example, if
1218	    vmap page tables are created on demand, either this mechanism
1219	    needs to work while the stack points to a virtual address with
1220	    unpopulated page tables or arch code (switch_to() and switch_mm(),
1221	    most likely) needs to ensure that the stack's page table entries
1222	    are populated before running on a possibly unpopulated stack.
1223
1224	  - If the stack overflows into a guard page, something reasonable
