76 This option enables a transparent branch optimization that
77 makes certain almost-always-true or almost-always-false branch
78 conditions even cheaper to execute within the kernel.
79
80 Certain performance-sensitive kernel code, such as trace points,
81 scheduler functionality, networking code and KVM have such
82 branches and include support for this optimization technique.
83
45f81b1c 84 If it is detected that the compiler has support for "asm goto",
c5905afb
IM
85 the kernel will compile such branches with just a nop
86 instruction. When the condition flag is toggled to true, the
87 nop will be converted to a jump instruction to execute the
88 conditional block of instructions.
89
90 This technique lowers overhead and stress on the branch prediction
91 of the processor and generally makes the kernel faster. The update
92 of the condition is slower, but those are always very rare.

123 to establish unintrusive probes in user-space binaries and

125 are hit by user-space applications.

150 Some architectures are unable to perform unaligned accesses
151 without the use of get_unaligned/put_unaligned. Others are

157 perform unaligned accesses efficiently to allow different

160 problems with received packets if doing so would not help

166config ARCH_USE_BUILTIN_BSWAP
167 bool
168 help
169 Modern versions of GCC (since 4.4) have builtin functions
170 for handling byte-swapping. Using these, instead of the old
171 inline assembler that the architecture code provides in the
172 __arch_bswapXX() macros, allows the compiler to see what's
173 happening and offers more opportunity for optimisation. In
174 particular, the compiler will be able to combine the byteswap
175 with a nearby load or store and use load-and-swap or
176 store-and-swap instructions if the architecture has them. It
177 should almost *never* result in code which is worse than the
178 hand-coded assembler in <asm/swab.h>. But just in case it
179 does, the use of the builtins is optional.
180
181 Any architecture with load-and-swap or store-and-swap
182 instructions should set this. And it shouldn't hurt to set it
183 on architectures that don't have such instructions.

519 Syscalls need to be wrapped inside user_exit()-user_enter() through
520 the slow path using TIF_NOHZ flag. Exceptions handlers must be
521 wrapped as well. Irqs are already protected inside
522 rcu_irq_enter/rcu_irq_exit() but preemption or signal handling on

536 Before enabling this option, arch code must be audited
537 to ensure there are no races in concurrent read/write of
538 cputime_t. For example, reading/writing 64-bit cputime_t on

798
799 - Stacks in vmalloc space need to work reliably. For example, if
800 vmap page tables are created on demand, either this mechanism
801 needs to work while the stack points to a virtual address with
802 unpopulated page tables or arch code (switch_to() and switch_mm(),
803 most likely) needs to ensure that the stack's page table entries
804 are populated before running on a possibly unpopulated stack.
