92 instruction. When the condition flag is toggled to true, the
93 nop will be converted to a jump instruction to execute the

97 of the processor and generally makes the kernel faster. The update

158 help
David Woodhousecf66bb92012-12-03 16:25:40 +0000159 Modern versions of GCC (since 4.4) have builtin functions
160 for handling byte-swapping. Using these, instead of the old
161 inline assembler that the architecture code provides in the
162 __arch_bswapXX() macros, allows the compiler to see what's
163 happening and offers more opportunity for optimisation. In
164 particular, the compiler will be able to combine the byteswap
165 with a nearby load or store and use load-and-swap or
166 store-and-swap instructions if the architecture has them. It
167 should almost *never* result in code which is worse than the
168 hand-coded assembler in <asm/swab.h>. But just in case it
169 does, the use of the builtins is optional.
170
171 Any architecture with load-and-swap or store-and-swap
172 instructions should set this. And it shouldn't hurt to set it
173 on architectures that don't have such instructions.

849 help
850 An arch should select this symbol if it can support kernel stacks
851 in vmalloc space. This means:
852
853 - vmalloc space must be large enough to hold many kernel stacks.
854 This may rule out many 32-bit architectures.
855
856 - Stacks in vmalloc space need to work reliably. For example, if
857 vmap page tables are created on demand, either this mechanism
858 needs to work while the stack points to a virtual address with
859 unpopulated page tables or arch code (switch_to() and switch_mm(),
860 most likely) needs to ensure that the stack's page table entries
861 are populated before running on a possibly unpopulated stack.
862
863 - If the stack overflows into a guard page, something reasonable
864 should happen. The definition of "reasonable" is flexible, but
865 instantly rebooting without logging anything would be unfriendly.
