| 105 | Generate a warning if any W+X mappings are found at boot. |
| 106 | |
| 107 | This is useful for discovering cases where the kernel is leaving |
| 108 | W+X mappings after applying NX, as such mappings are a security risk. |
| 109 | |
| 110 | Look for a message in dmesg output like this: |
| 111 | |
| 112 | x86/mm: Checked W+X mappings: passed, no W+X pages found. |
| 113 | |
| 114 | or like this, if the check failed: |
| 115 | |
| 116 | x86/mm: Checked W+X mappings: FAILED, <N> W+X pages found. |
| 117 | |
| 118 | Note that even if the check fails, your kernel is possibly |
| 119 | still fine, as W+X mappings are not a security hole in |
| 120 | themselves, what they do is that they make the exploitation |
| 121 | of other unfixed kernel bugs easier. |
| 122 | |
| 123 | There is no runtime or memory usage effect of this option |

| 143 | |
| 144 | This option allows the user to tune the amount of TLB entries the |

| 146 | certain situations, the former is cheaper. This is controlled by the |
| 147 | tlb_flushall_shift knob under /sys/kernel/debug/x86. If you set it |
| 148 | to -1, the code flushes the whole TLB unconditionally. Otherwise, |
| 149 | for positive values of it, the kernel will use single TLB entry |
| 150 | invalidating instructions according to the following formula: |

| 152 | flush_entries <= active_tlb_entries / 2^tlb_flushall_shift |

Ingo Molnar | 60a3cdd | 2008-03-03 12:38:52 +0100 | [diff] [blame] | 282 | This option determines if the kernel forces gcc to inline the functions |
| 283 | developers have marked 'inline'. Doing so takes away freedom from gcc to |
| 284 | do what it thinks is best, which is desirable for the gcc 3.x series of |
| 285 | compilers. The gcc 4.x series have a rewritten inlining algorithm and |
Sitsofe Wheeler | 63fb708 | 2008-10-11 20:27:53 +0100 | [diff] [blame] | 286 | enabling this option will generate a smaller kernel there. Hopefully |
| 287 | this algorithm is so good that allowing gcc 4.x and above to make the |
| 288 | decision will become the default in the future. Until then this option |
| 289 | is there to test gcc for this. |

| 365 | This option enables the ORC (Oops Rewind Capability) unwinder for |

| 380 | This option enables the frame pointer unwinder for unwinding kernel |
| 381 | stack traces. |
| 382 | |
| 383 | The unwinder itself is fast and it uses less RAM than the ORC |
| 384 | unwinder, but the kernel text size will grow by ~3% and the kernel's |
| 385 | overall performance will degrade by roughly 5-10%. |
| 386 | |
| 387 | This option is recommended if you want to use the livepatch |
| 388 | consistency model, as this is currently the only way to get a |
| 389 | reliable stack trace (CONFIG_HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE). |
