637 This option allows to increase the default ring buffer size
638 according to the number of CPUs. The value defines the contribution
639 of each CPU as a power of 2. The used space is typically only few
640 lines however it might be much more when problems are reported,
641 e.g. backtraces.
642
643 The increased size means that a new buffer has to be allocated and
644 the original static one is unused. It makes sense only on systems
645 with more CPUs. Therefore this value is used only when the sum of
646 contributions is greater than the half of the default kernel ring
647 buffer as defined by LOG_BUF_SHIFT. The default values are set
648 so that more than 64 CPUs are needed to trigger the allocation.

704 This feature enables the scheduler to track the clamped utilization
705 of each CPU based on RUNNABLE tasks scheduled on that CPU.
706
707 With this option, the user can specify the min and max CPU
708 utilization allowed for RUNNABLE tasks. The max utilization defines
709 the maximum frequency a task should use while the min utilization
710 defines the minimum frequency it should use.
711
712 Both min and max utilization clamp values are hints to the scheduler,
713 aiming at improving its frequency selection policy, but they do not
714 enforce or grant any specific bandwidth for tasks.
715
716 If in doubt, say N.

723 help
724 Defines the number of clamp buckets to use. The range of each bucket
725 will be SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE/UCLAMP_BUCKETS_COUNT. The higher the
726 number of clamp buckets the finer their granularity and the higher
727 the precision of clamping aggregation and tracking at run-time.
728
729 For example, with the minimum configuration value we will have 5
730 clamp buckets tracking 20% utilization each. A 25% boosted tasks will
731 be refcounted in the [20..39]% bucket and will set the bucket clamp
732 effective value to 25%.
733 If a second 30% boosted task should be co-scheduled on the same CPU,
734 that task will be refcounted in the same bucket of the first task and
735 it will boost the bucket clamp effective value to 30%.
736 The clamp effective value of a bucket is reset to its nominal value
737 (20% in the example above) when there are no more tasks refcounted in
738 that bucket.
739
740 An additional boost/capping margin can be added to some tasks. In the
741 example above the 25% task will be boosted to 30% until it exits the
742 CPU. If that should be considered not acceptable on certain systems,
743 it's always possible to reduce the margin by increasing the number of
744 clamp buckets to trade off used memory for run-time tracking
745 precision.
746
747 If in doubt, use the default value.

1818 For reduced kernel memory fragmentation, slab caches can be

2151 bool "Allow loading of modules with missing namespace imports"
2152 help
2153 Symbols exported with EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS*() are considered exported in
2154 a namespace. A module that makes use of a symbol exported with such a
2155 namespace is required to import the namespace via MODULE_IMPORT_NS().
2156 There is no technical reason to enforce correct namespace imports,
2157 but it creates consistency between symbols defining namespaces and
2158 users importing namespaces they make use of. This option relaxes this
2159 requirement and lifts the enforcement when loading a module.

2167 Unused but exported symbols make the kernel needlessly bigger. For
2168 that reason most of these unused exports will soon be removed. This
2169 option is provided temporarily to provide a transition period in case
2170 some external kernel module needs one of these symbols anyway. If you
2171 encounter such a case in your module, consider if you are actually
2172 using the right API. (rationale: since nobody in the kernel is using
2173 this in a module, there is a pretty good chance it's actually the
2174 wrong interface to use). If you really need the symbol, please send a
2175 mail to the linux kernel mailing list mentioning the symbol and why
2176 you really need it, and what the merge plan to the mainline kernel for
2177 your module is.

Nicolas Pitredbacb0e2016-01-26 21:51:05 -05002182 help
2183 The kernel and some modules make many symbols available for
2184 other modules to use via EXPORT_SYMBOL() and variants. Depending
2185 on the set of modules being selected in your kernel configuration,
2186 many of those exported symbols might never be used.
2187
2188 This option allows for unused exported symbols to be dropped from
2189 the build. In turn, this provides the compiler more opportunities
2190 (especially when using LTO) for optimizing the code and reducing
2191 binary size. This might have some security advantages as well.
