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.

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

144 problems with received packets if doing so would not help

151 bool
152 help
153 Modern versions of GCC (since 4.4) have builtin functions
154 for handling byte-swapping. Using these, instead of the old
155 inline assembler that the architecture code provides in the
156 __arch_bswapXX() macros, allows the compiler to see what's
157 happening and offers more opportunity for optimisation. In
158 particular, the compiler will be able to combine the byteswap
159 with a nearby load or store and use load-and-swap or
160 store-and-swap instructions if the architecture has them. It
161 should almost *never* result in code which is worse than the
162 hand-coded assembler in <asm/swab.h>. But just in case it
163 does, the use of the builtins is optional.
164
165 Any architecture with load-and-swap or store-and-swap
166 instructions should set this. And it shouldn't hurt to set it
167 on architectures that don't have such instructions.

789 This enables 32 bit time_t support in addition to 64 bit time_t support.
790 This is relevant on all 32-bit architectures, and 64-bit architectures
791 as part of compat syscall handling.

807 help
808 An arch should select this symbol if it can support kernel stacks
809 in vmalloc space. This means:
810
811 - vmalloc space must be large enough to hold many kernel stacks.
812 This may rule out many 32-bit architectures.
813
814 - Stacks in vmalloc space need to work reliably. For example, if
815 vmap page tables are created on demand, either this mechanism
816 needs to work while the stack points to a virtual address with
817 unpopulated page tables or arch code (switch_to() and switch_mm(),
818 most likely) needs to ensure that the stack's page table entries
819 are populated before running on a possibly unpopulated stack.
820
821 - If the stack overflows into a guard page, something reasonable
822 should happen. The definition of "reasonable" is flexible, but
823 instantly rebooting without logging anything would be unfriendly.

829 ---help---
830 Enable this if you want the use virtually-mapped kernel stacks
831 with guard pages. This causes kernel stack overflows to be
832 caught immediately rather than causing difficult-to-diagnose
833 corruption.
834
835 This is presently incompatible with KASAN because KASAN expects
836 the stack to map directly to the KASAN shadow map using a formula
837 that is incorrect if the stack is in vmalloc space.

880 An architecture selects this when it has implemented refcount_t
881 using open coded assembly primitives that provide an optimized
882 refcount_t implementation, possibly at the expense of some full
883 refcount state checks of CONFIG_REFCOUNT_FULL=y.
884
885 The refcount overflow check behavior, however, must be retained.
886 Catching overflows is the primary security concern for protecting
887 against bugs in reference counts.
