56 This option enables a transparent branch optimization that
57 makes certain almost-always-true or almost-always-false branch
58 conditions even cheaper to execute within the kernel.
59
60 Certain performance-sensitive kernel code, such as trace points,
61 scheduler functionality, networking code and KVM have such
62 branches and include support for this optimization technique.
63
45f81b1c 64 If it is detected that the compiler has support for "asm goto",

IM
65 the kernel will compile such branches with just a nop
66 instruction. When the condition flag is toggled to true, the
67 nop will be converted to a jump instruction to execute the
68 conditional block of instructions.
69
70 This technique lowers overhead and stress on the branch prediction
71 of the processor and generally makes the kernel faster. The update
72 of the condition is slower, but those are always very rare.

101 enable instrumentation applications (such as 'perf probe')
102 to establish unintrusive probes in user-space binaries and

104 are hit by user-space applications.

145config ARCH_USE_BUILTIN_BSWAP
146 bool
147 help
148 Modern versions of GCC (since 4.4) have builtin functions
149 for handling byte-swapping. Using these, instead of the old
150 inline assembler that the architecture code provides in the
151 __arch_bswapXX() macros, allows the compiler to see what's
152 happening and offers more opportunity for optimisation. In
153 particular, the compiler will be able to combine the byteswap
154 with a nearby load or store and use load-and-swap or
155 store-and-swap instructions if the architecture has them. It
156 should almost *never* result in code which is worse than the
157 hand-coded assembler in <asm/swab.h>. But just in case it
158 does, the use of the builtins is optional.
159
160 Any architecture with load-and-swap or store-and-swap
161 instructions should set this. And it shouldn't hurt to set it
162 on architectures that don't have such instructions.

524 With VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN, cputime_t becomes 64-bit.
525 Before enabling this option, arch code must be audited
526 to ensure there are no races in concurrent read/write of
527 cputime_t. For example, reading/writing 64-bit cputime_t on
528 some 32-bit arches may require multiple accesses, so proper
529 locking is needed to protect against concurrent accesses.

572config HAVE_IRQ_EXIT_ON_IRQ_STACK
573 bool
574 help
575 Architecture doesn't only execute the irq handler on the irq stack
576 but also irq_exit(). This way we can process softirqs on this irq
577 stack instead of switching to a new one when we call __do_softirq()
578 in the end of an hardirq.
579 This spares a stack switch and improves cache usage on softirq
580 processing.

745 help
746 An arch should select this symbol if it can support kernel stacks
747 in vmalloc space. This means:
748
749 - vmalloc space must be large enough to hold many kernel stacks.
750 This may rule out many 32-bit architectures.
751
752 - Stacks in vmalloc space need to work reliably. For example, if
753 vmap page tables are created on demand, either this mechanism
754 needs to work while the stack points to a virtual address with
755 unpopulated page tables or arch code (switch_to() and switch_mm(),
756 most likely) needs to ensure that the stack's page table entries
757 are populated before running on a possibly unpopulated stack.
758
759 - If the stack overflows into a guard page, something reasonable
760 should happen. The definition of "reasonable" is flexible, but
761 instantly rebooting without logging anything would be unfriendly.

772
773 This is presently incompatible with KASAN because KASAN expects
774 the stack to map directly to the KASAN shadow map using a formula
775 that is incorrect if the stack is in vmalloc space.
