120 The linux kernel is a kind of self-extracting executable.
121 Several compression algorithms are available, which differ
122 in efficiency, compression and decompression speed.
123 Compression speed is only relevant when building a kernel.
124 Decompression speed is relevant at each boot.

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

551 implementations of RCU, and allows trading off cache misses
552 against lock contention. Systems that synchronize their
553 scheduling-clock interrupts for energy-efficiency reasons will
554 want the default because the smaller leaf-level fanout keeps
555 lock contention levels acceptably low. Very large systems
556 (hundreds or thousands of CPUs) will instead want to set this
557 value to the maximum value possible in order to reduce the
558 number of cache misses incurred during RCU's grace-period

560 are not helped by synchronized interrupts, and thus tend to

1489 Most modern CPUs support performance events via performance
1490 counter registers. These registers count the number of certain
0793a61d
TG
1491 types of hw events: such as instructions executed, cachemisses
1492 suffered, or branches mis-predicted - without slowing down the
1493 kernel or applications. These registers can also trigger interrupts
1494 when a threshold number of events have passed - and can thus be
1495 used to profile the code that runs on that CPU.
1496
57c0c15b 1497 The Linux Performance Event subsystem provides an abstraction of
dd77038d 1498 these software and hardware event capabilities, available via a
57c0c15b 1499 system call and used by the "perf" utility in tools/perf/. It

1589 Normally, and according to the Linux spec, anonymous memory obtained
1590 from mmap() has it's contents cleared before it is passed to

1592 mmap() skip that if it is given an MAP_UNINITIALIZED flag, thus
1593 providing a huge performance boost. If this option is not enabled,
1594 then the flag will be ignored.

1596 This is taken advantage of by uClibc's malloc(), and also by
1597 ELF-FDPIC binfmt's brk and stack allocator.

1644 Kernel modules are small pieces of compiled code which can
1645 be inserted in the running kernel, rather than being
1646 permanently built into the kernel. You use the "modprobe"
1647 tool to add (and sometimes remove) them. If you say Y here,
1648 many parts of the kernel can be built as modules (by
1649 answering M instead of Y where indicated): this is most
1650 useful for infrequently used options which are not required
1651 for booting. For more information, see the man pages for
1652 modprobe, lsmod, modinfo, insmod and rmmod.
1653
1654 If you say Y here, you will need to run "make
1655 modules_install" to put the modules under /lib/modules/
1656 where modprobe can find them (you may need to be root to do
1657 this).
