Krzysztof Kozlowski24b54fe2019-12-04 16:50:26 -080087 If it is detected that the compiler has support for "asm goto",
Ingo Molnarc5905af2012-02-24 08:31:31 +010088 the kernel will compile such branches with just a nop
89 instruction. When the condition flag is toggled to true, the
90 nop will be converted to a jump instruction to execute the
91 conditional block of instructions.
92
93 This technique lowers overhead and stress on the branch prediction
94 of the processor and generally makes the kernel faster. The update
95 of the condition is slower, but those are always very rare.

137 Some architectures are unable to perform unaligned accesses
138 without the use of get_unaligned/put_unaligned. Others are
139 unable to perform such accesses efficiently (e.g. trap on
140 unaligned access and require fixing it up in the exception
141 handler.)
142
143 This symbol should be selected by an architecture if it can
144 perform unaligned accesses efficiently to allow different
145 code paths to be selected for these cases. Some network
146 drivers, for example, could opt to not fix up alignment
147 problems with received packets if doing so would not help
148 much.

155 help
David Woodhousecf66bb92012-12-03 16:25:40 +0000156 Modern versions of GCC (since 4.4) have builtin functions
157 for handling byte-swapping. Using these, instead of the old
158 inline assembler that the architecture code provides in the
159 __arch_bswapXX() macros, allows the compiler to see what's
160 happening and offers more opportunity for optimisation. In
161 particular, the compiler will be able to combine the byteswap
162 with a nearby load or store and use load-and-swap or
163 store-and-swap instructions if the architecture has them. It
164 should almost *never* result in code which is worse than the
165 hand-coded assembler in <asm/swab.h>. But just in case it
166 does, the use of the builtins is optional.
167
168 Any architecture with load-and-swap or store-and-swap
169 instructions should set this. And it shouldn't hurt to set it
170 on architectures that don't have such instructions.

856 help
857 An arch should select this symbol if it can support kernel stacks
858 in vmalloc space. This means:
859
860 - vmalloc space must be large enough to hold many kernel stacks.
861 This may rule out many 32-bit architectures.
862
863 - Stacks in vmalloc space need to work reliably. For example, if
864 vmap page tables are created on demand, either this mechanism
865 needs to work while the stack points to a virtual address with
866 unpopulated page tables or arch code (switch_to() and switch_mm(),
867 most likely) needs to ensure that the stack's page table entries
868 are populated before running on a possibly unpopulated stack.
869
870 - If the stack overflows into a guard page, something reasonable
871 should happen. The definition of "reasonable" is flexible, but
872 instantly rebooting without logging anything would be unfriendly.
