68b59cd81SMasahiro Yamada	  This is used in unclear ways:
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.

12266bf024e6SJohannes Weiner	  Provides a cgroup controller for HugeTLB pages.
12276bf024e6SJohannes Weiner	  When you enable this, you can put a per cgroup limit on HugeTLB usage.
12286bf024e6SJohannes Weiner	  The limit is enforced during page fault. Since HugeTLB doesn't
12296bf024e6SJohannes Weiner	  support page reclaim, enforcing the limit at page fault time implies
12306bf024e6SJohannes Weiner	  that, the application will get SIGBUS signal if it tries to access
12316bf024e6SJohannes Weiner	  HugeTLB pages beyond its limit. This requires the application to know
12326bf024e6SJohannes Weiner	  beforehand how much HugeTLB pages it would require for its use. The
12336bf024e6SJohannes Weiner	  control group is tracked in the third page lru pointer. This means
12346bf024e6SJohannes Weiner	  that we cannot use the controller with huge page less than 3 pages.

21534520c6a4SDavid Howells	  Build a simple ASN.1 grammar compiler that produces a bytecode output
21544520c6a4SDavid Howells	  that can be interpreted by the ASN.1 stream decoder and used to
21554520c6a4SDavid Howells	  inform it as to what tags are to be expected in a stream and what
21564520c6a4SDavid Howells	  functions to call on what tags.
