657 This option allows to increase the default ring buffer size
658 according to the number of CPUs. The value defines the contribution
659 of each CPU as a power of 2. The used space is typically only few
660 lines however it might be much more when problems are reported,
661 e.g. backtraces.
662
663 The increased size means that a new buffer has to be allocated and
664 the original static one is unused. It makes sense only on systems
665 with more CPUs. Therefore this value is used only when the sum of
666 contributions is greater than the half of the default kernel ring
667 buffer as defined by LOG_BUF_SHIFT. The default values are set
668 so that more than 64 CPUs are needed to trigger the allocation.

723 help
724 This feature enables the scheduler to track the clamped utilization
725 of each CPU based on RUNNABLE tasks scheduled on that CPU.
726
727 With this option, the user can specify the min and max CPU
728 utilization allowed for RUNNABLE tasks. The max utilization defines
729 the maximum frequency a task should use while the min utilization
730 defines the minimum frequency it should use.
731
732 Both min and max utilization clamp values are hints to the scheduler,
733 aiming at improving its frequency selection policy, but they do not
734 enforce or grant any specific bandwidth for tasks.

743 help
744 Defines the number of clamp buckets to use. The range of each bucket
745 will be SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE/UCLAMP_BUCKETS_COUNT. The higher the
746 number of clamp buckets the finer their granularity and the higher
747 the precision of clamping aggregation and tracking at run-time.
748
749 For example, with the minimum configuration value we will have 5
750 clamp buckets tracking 20% utilization each. A 25% boosted tasks will
751 be refcounted in the [20..39]% bucket and will set the bucket clamp
752 effective value to 25%.
753 If a second 30% boosted task should be co-scheduled on the same CPU,
754 that task will be refcounted in the same bucket of the first task and
755 it will boost the bucket clamp effective value to 30%.
756 The clamp effective value of a bucket is reset to its nominal value
757 (20% in the example above) when there are no more tasks refcounted in
758 that bucket.
759
760 An additional boost/capping margin can be added to some tasks. In the
761 example above the 25% task will be boosted to 30% until it exits the
762 CPU. If that should be considered not acceptable on certain systems,
763 it's always possible to reduce the margin by increasing the number of
764 clamp buckets to trade off used memory for run-time tracking
765 precision.
766
767 If in doubt, use the default value.

2096 help
2097 This determines which sort of hashing algorithm will be used during
2098 signature generation. This algorithm _must_ be built into the kernel
2099 directly so that signature verification can take place. It is not
2100 possible to load a signed module containing the algorithm to check
2101 the signature on that module.

2172 bool "Allow loading of modules with missing namespace imports"
2173 help
2174 Symbols exported with EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS*() are considered exported in
2175 a namespace. A module that makes use of a symbol exported with such a
2176 namespace is required to import the namespace via MODULE_IMPORT_NS().
2177 There is no technical reason to enforce correct namespace imports,
2178 but it creates consistency between symbols defining namespaces and
2179 users importing namespaces they make use of. This option relaxes this
2180 requirement and lifts the enforcement when loading a module.

2187 help
2188 Unused but exported symbols make the kernel needlessly bigger. For
2189 that reason most of these unused exports will soon be removed. This
2190 option is provided temporarily to provide a transition period in case
2191 some external kernel module needs one of these symbols anyway. If you
2192 encounter such a case in your module, consider if you are actually
2193 using the right API. (rationale: since nobody in the kernel is using
2194 this in a module, there is a pretty good chance it's actually the
2195 wrong interface to use). If you really need the symbol, please send a
2196 mail to the linux kernel mailing list mentioning the symbol and why
2197 you really need it, and what the merge plan to the mainline kernel for
2198 your module is.

Nicolas Pitredbacb0e2016-01-26 21:51:05 -05002203 help
2204 The kernel and some modules make many symbols available for
2205 other modules to use via EXPORT_SYMBOL() and variants. Depending
2206 on the set of modules being selected in your kernel configuration,
2207 many of those exported symbols might never be used.
2208
2209 This option allows for unused exported symbols to be dropped from
2210 the build. In turn, this provides the compiler more opportunities
2211 (especially when using LTO) for optimizing the code and reducing
2212 binary size. This might have some security advantages as well.
