81 conditions even cheaper to execute within the kernel.
82
83 Certain performance-sensitive kernel code, such as trace points,
84 scheduler functionality, networking code and KVM have such
85 branches and include support for this optimization technique.
86
24b54fee 87 If it is detected that the compiler has support for "asm goto",
c5905afb
IM
88 the kernel will compile such branches with just a nop
89 instruction. When the condition flag is toggled to true, the
90 nop will be converted to a jump instruction to execute the
91 conditional block of instructions.
92
93 This technique lowers overhead and stress on the branch prediction
94 of the processor and generally makes the kernel faster. The update
95 of the condition is slower, but those are always very rare.

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

136 help
137 Some architectures are unable to perform unaligned accesses
138 without the use of get_unaligned/put_unaligned. Others are
139 unable to perform such accesses efficiently (e.g. trap on
140 unaligned access and require fixing it up in the exception
141 handler.)
142
143 This symbol should be selected by an architecture if it can
144 perform unaligned accesses efficiently to allow different
145 code paths to be selected for these cases. Some network
146 drivers, for example, could opt to not fix up alignment
147 problems with received packets if doing so would not help
148 much.

156 Modern versions of GCC (since 4.4) have builtin functions
157 for handling byte-swapping. Using these, instead of the old
158 inline assembler that the architecture code provides in the
159 __arch_bswapXX() macros, allows the compiler to see what's
160 happening and offers more opportunity for optimisation. In
161 particular, the compiler will be able to combine the byteswap
162 with a nearby load or store and use load-and-swap or
163 store-and-swap instructions if the architecture has them. It
164 should almost *never* result in code which is worse than the
165 hand-coded assembler in <asm/swab.h>. But just in case it
166 does, the use of the builtins is optional.
167
168 Any architecture with load-and-swap or store-and-swap
169 instructions should set this. And it shouldn't hurt to set it
170 on architectures that don't have such instructions.

520 Functions will have the stack-protector canary logic added in any
521 of the following conditions:
522
523 - local variable's address used as part of the right hand side of an
524 assignment or function argument
525 - local variable is an array (or union containing an array),
526 regardless of array type or length
527 - uses register local variables
528
529 This feature requires gcc version 4.9 or above, or a distribution
530 gcc with the feature backported ("-fstack-protector-strong").
531
532 On an x86 "defconfig" build, this feature adds canary checks to
533 about 20% of all kernel functions, which increases the kernel code
534 size by about 2%.

844 - Stacks in vmalloc space need to work reliably. For example, if

846 needs to work while the stack points to a virtual address with
847 unpopulated page tables or arch code (switch_to() and switch_mm(),
848 most likely) needs to ensure that the stack's page table entries
849 are populated before running on a possibly unpopulated stack.
