81 scheduler functionality, networking code and KVM have such

83
84 If it is detected that the compiler has support for "asm goto",
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.

151 without the use of get_unaligned/put_unaligned. Others are
152 unable to perform such accesses efficiently (e.g. trap on

157 perform unaligned accesses efficiently to allow different

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.

794 def_bool n
795 help
796 An arch should select this symbol if it can support kernel stacks
797 in vmalloc space. This means:
798
799 - vmalloc space must be large enough to hold many kernel stacks.
800 This may rule out many 32-bit architectures.
801
802 - Stacks in vmalloc space need to work reliably. For example, if
803 vmap page tables are created on demand, either this mechanism
804 needs to work while the stack points to a virtual address with
805 unpopulated page tables or arch code (switch_to() and switch_mm(),
806 most likely) needs to ensure that the stack's page table entries
807 are populated before running on a possibly unpopulated stack.
808
809 - If the stack overflows into a guard page, something reasonable
810 should happen. The definition of "reasonable" is flexible, but
811 instantly rebooting without logging anything would be unfriendly.

817 ---help---
818 Enable this if you want the use virtually-mapped kernel stacks
819 with guard pages. This causes kernel stack overflows to be
820 caught immediately rather than causing difficult-to-diagnose
821 corruption.
822
823 This is presently incompatible with KASAN because KASAN expects
824 the stack to map directly to the KASAN shadow map using a formula
825 that is incorrect if the stack is in vmalloc space.

867 help
868 An architecture selects this when it has implemented refcount_t
869 using open coded assembly primitives that provide an optimized
870 refcount_t implementation, possibly at the expense of some full
871 refcount state checks of CONFIG_REFCOUNT_FULL=y.
872
873 The refcount overflow check behavior, however, must be retained.
874 Catching overflows is the primary security concern for protecting
875 against bugs in reference counts.

880 Enabling this switches the refcounting infrastructure from a fast

884 security flaw exploits.
