       help
         This option enables a transparent branch optimization that
         makes certain almost-always-true or almost-always-false branch
         conditions even cheaper to execute within the kernel.

         Certain performance-sensitive kernel code, such as trace points,
         scheduler functionality, networking code and KVM have such
         branches and include support for this optimization technique.

         If it is detected that the compiler has support for "asm goto",
         the kernel will compile such branches with just a nop
         instruction. When the condition flag is toggled to true, the
         nop will be converted to a jump instruction to execute the
         conditional block of instructions.

         This technique lowers overhead and stress on the branch prediction
         of the processor and generally makes the kernel faster. The update
         of the condition is slower, but those are always very rare.

         ( On 32-bit x86, the necessary options added to the compiler
           flags may increase the size of the kernel slightly. )

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

            managed by the kernel and kept transparent to the probed

config HAVE_64BIT_ALIGNED_ACCESS
        def_bool 64BIT && !HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS
        help
          Some architectures require 64 bit accesses to be 64 bit
          aligned, which also requires structs containing 64 bit values
          to be 64 bit aligned too. This includes some 32 bit
          architectures which can do 64 bit accesses, as well as 64 bit
          architectures without unaligned access.

          This symbol should be selected by an architecture if 64 bit
          accesses are required to be 64 bit aligned in this way even
          though it is not a 64 bit architecture.

          See Documentation/unaligned-memory-access.txt for more
          information on the topic of unaligned memory accesses.

config HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS
        bool
        help
          Some architectures are unable to perform unaligned accesses
          without the use of get_unaligned/put_unaligned. Others are
          unable to perform such accesses efficiently (e.g. trap on
          unaligned access and require fixing it up in the exception
          handler.)

          This symbol should be selected by an architecture if it can
          perform unaligned accesses efficiently to allow different
          code paths to be selected for these cases. Some network
          drivers, for example, could opt to not fix up alignment
          problems with received packets if doing so would not help
          much.

          See Documentation/unaligned-memory-access.txt for more
          information on the topic of unaligned memory accesses.

config ARCH_USE_BUILTIN_BSWAP
       bool
       help
         Modern versions of GCC (since 4.4) have builtin functions
         for handling byte-swapping. Using these, instead of the old
         inline assembler that the architecture code provides in the
         __arch_bswapXX() macros, allows the compiler to see what's
         happening and offers more opportunity for optimisation. In
         particular, the compiler will be able to combine the byteswap
         with a nearby load or store and use load-and-swap or
         store-and-swap instructions if the architecture has them. It
         should almost *never* result in code which is worse than the
         hand-coded assembler in <asm/swab.h>.  But just in case it
         does, the use of the builtins is optional.

         Any architecture with load-and-swap or store-and-swap
         instructions should set this. And it shouldn't hurt to set it
         on architectures that don't have such instructions.

          the value just before actually returning.  Stack based buffer
          overflows (that need to overwrite this return address) now also
          overwrite the canary, which gets detected and the attack is then
          neutralized via a kernel panic.

          An arch should select this symbol if it can support kernel stacks
          in vmalloc space.  This means:

          - vmalloc space must be large enough to hold many kernel stacks.
            This may rule out many 32-bit architectures.

          - Stacks in vmalloc space need to work reliably.  For example, if
            vmap page tables are created on demand, either this mechanism
            needs to work while the stack points to a virtual address with
            unpopulated page tables or arch code (switch_to() and switch_mm(),
            most likely) needs to ensure that the stack's page table entries
            are populated before running on a possibly unpopulated stack.

          - If the stack overflows into a guard page, something reasonable
            should happen.  The definition of "reasonable" is flexible, but
            instantly rebooting without logging anything would be unfriendly.

          Enable this if you want the use virtually-mapped kernel stacks
          with guard pages.  This causes kernel stack overflows to be
          caught immediately rather than causing difficult-to-diagnose
          corruption.

          This is presently incompatible with KASAN because KASAN expects
          the stack to map directly to the KASAN shadow map using a formula
          that is incorrect if the stack is in vmalloc space.
