78b59cd81SMasahiro Yamada
88b59cd81SMasahiro Yamada	  - Re-run Kconfig when the compiler is updated
98b59cd81SMasahiro Yamada	    The 'default' property references the environment variable,
108b59cd81SMasahiro Yamada	    CC_VERSION_TEXT so it is recorded in include/config/auto.conf.cmd.
118b59cd81SMasahiro Yamada	    When the compiler is updated, Kconfig will be invoked.
128b59cd81SMasahiro Yamada
13f9c8bc46SBhaskar Chowdhury	  - Ensure full rebuild when the compiler is updated
14ce6ed1c4SMasahiro Yamada	    include/linux/compiler-version.h contains this option in the comment
150e0345b7SAlexey Dobriyan	    line so fixdep adds include/config/CC_VERSION_TEXT into the
16ce6ed1c4SMasahiro Yamada	    auto-generated dependency. When the compiler is updated, syncconfig
17ce6ed1c4SMasahiro Yamada	    will touch it and then every file will be rebuilt.

21615f054e31SRusty Russell	  Back when each arch used to define their own cpu_online_mask and
21625f054e31SRusty Russell	  cpu_possible_mask, some of them chose to initialize cpu_possible_mask
216398a79d6aSRusty Russell	  with all 1s, and others with all 0s.  When they were centralised,
216498a79d6aSRusty Russell	  it was better to provide this option than to break all the archs
2165692105b8SMatt LaPlante	  and have several arch maintainers pursuing me down dark alleys.
