6 This is used in unclear ways:
7
8 - Re-run Kconfig when the compiler is updated
9 The 'default' property references the environment variable,
10 CC_VERSION_TEXT so it is recorded in include/config/auto.conf.cmd.
11 When the compiler is updated, Kconfig will be invoked.
12
f9c8bc46 13 - Ensure full rebuild when the compiler is updated
ce6ed1c4 14 include/linux/compiler-version.h contains this option in the comment
0e0345b7 15 line so fixdep adds include/config/CC_VERSION_TEXT into the
ce6ed1c4

17 will touch it and then every file will be rebuilt.

233 The linux kernel is a kind of self-extracting executable.
234 Several compression algorithms are available, which differ
235 in efficiency, compression and decompression speed.
236 Compression speed is only relevant when building a kernel.
237 Decompression speed is relevant at each boot.

240 kernels, mail me (Alain Knaff) <alain@knaff.lu>. (An older
241 version of this functionality (bzip2 only), for 2.4, was
242 supplied by Christian Ludwig)

245 are low on disk space (embedded systems), but for whom ram
246 size matters less.

853 the precision of clamping aggregation and tracking at run-time.
854
855 For example, with the minimum configuration value we will have 5
856 clamp buckets tracking 20% utilization each. A 25% boosted tasks will
857 be refcounted in the [20..39]% bucket and will set the bucket clamp
858 effective value to 25%.
859 If a second 30% boosted task should be co-scheduled on the same CPU,
860 that task will be refcounted in the same bucket of the first task and
861 it will boost the bucket clamp effective value to 30%.
862 The clamp effective value of a bucket is reset to its nominal value
863 (20% in the example above) when there are no more tasks refcounted in
864 that bucket.
865
866 An additional boost/capping margin can be added to some tasks. In the
867 example above the 25% task will be boosted to 30% until it exits the
868 CPU. If that should be considered not acceptable on certain systems,
869 it's always possible to reduce the margin by increasing the number of
870 clamp buckets to trade off used memory for run-time tracking
871 precision.

1938 help
1939 For reduced kernel memory fragmentation, slab caches can be
1940 merged when they share the same size and other characteristics.
1941 This carries a risk of kernel heap overflows being able to
1942 overwrite objects from merged caches (and more easily control
1943 cache layout), which makes such heap attacks easier to exploit
1944 by attackers. By keeping caches unmerged, these kinds of exploits
1945 can usually only damage objects in the same cache. To disable
1946 merging at runtime, "slab_nomerge" can be passed on the kernel
1947 command line.

1974 5.2.27 Heterogeneous Memory Attribute Table (HMAT) in the ACPI
