84 This option enables a transparent branch optimization that

86 conditions even cheaper to execute within the kernel.
87
88 Certain performance-sensitive kernel code, such as trace points,
89 scheduler functionality, networking code and KVM have such
90 branches and include support for this optimization technique.
91
92 If it is detected that the compiler has support for "asm goto",
93 the kernel will compile such branches with just a nop
94 instruction. When the condition flag is toggled to true, the
95 nop will be converted to a jump instruction to execute the
96 conditional block of instructions.
97
98 This technique lowers overhead and stress on the branch prediction
99 of the processor and generally makes the kernel faster. The update
100 of the condition is slower, but those are always very rare.

167 unaligned access and require fixing it up in the exception
168 handler.)

170 This symbol should be selected by an architecture if it can
171 perform unaligned accesses efficiently to allow different

180 config ARCH_USE_BUILTIN_BSWAP
181 bool
182 help
183 Modern versions of GCC (since 4.4) have builtin functions
184 for handling byte-swapping. Using these, instead of the old
185 inline assembler that the architecture code provides in the
186 __arch_bswapXX() macros, allows the compiler to see what's
187 happening and offers more opportunity for optimisation. In
188 particular, the compiler will be able to combine the byteswap
189 with a nearby load or store and use load-and-swap or
190 store-and-swap instructions if the architecture has them. It
191 should almost *never* result in code which is worse than the
192 hand-coded assembler in <asm/swab.h>. But just in case it
193 does, the use of the builtins is optional.
194
195 Any architecture with load-and-swap or store-and-swap
196 instructions should set this. And it shouldn't hurt to set it
197 on architectures that don't have such instructions.

646 This option turns on the "stack-protector" GCC feature. This
647 feature puts, at the beginning of functions, a canary value on
648 the stack just before the return address, and validates
649 the value just before actually returning. Stack based buffer
650 overflows (that need to overwrite this return address) now also
651 overwrite the canary, which gets detected and the attack is then
652 neutralized via a kernel panic.
653
654 Functions will have the stack-protector canary logic added if they
655 have an 8-byte or larger character array on the stack.
656
657 This feature requires gcc version 4.2 or above, or a distribution
658 gcc with the feature backported ("-fstack-protector").

1259 offset randomization with calls to add_random_kstack_offset()
1260 during syscall entry and choose_random_kstack_offset() during
1261 syscall exit. Careful removal of -fstack-protector-strong and
1262 -fstack-protector should also be applied to the entry code and
1263 closely examined, as the artificial stack bump looks like an array
1264 to the compiler, so it will attempt to add canary checks regardless
1265 of the static branch state.

1273 The kernel stack offset can be randomized (after pt_regs) by
1274 roughly 5 bits of entropy, frustrating memory corruption

1278 The feature is controlled via the "randomize_kstack_offset=on/off"

1432 integrate better with CFI schemes.
