39 | Kprobes allows you to trap at almost any kernel address and | |
40 | execute a callback function. register_kprobe() establishes | |
41 | a probepoint and specifies the callback. Kprobes is useful | |
42 | for kernel debugging, non-intrusive instrumentation and testing. | |

50 | This option enables a transparent branch optimization that | |
c5905afb IM |
51 | makes certain almost-always-true or almost-always-false branch |
52 | conditions even cheaper to execute within the kernel. | |
53 | ||
54 | Certain performance-sensitive kernel code, such as trace points, | |
55 | scheduler functionality, networking code and KVM have such | |
56 | branches and include support for this optimization technique. | |
57 | ||
24b54fee | 58 | If it is detected that the compiler has support for "asm goto", |
c5905afb IM |
59 | the kernel will compile such branches with just a nop |
60 | instruction. When the condition flag is toggled to true, the | |
61 | nop will be converted to a jump instruction to execute the | |
62 | conditional block of instructions. | |
63 | ||
64 | This technique lowers overhead and stress on the branch prediction | |
65 | of the processor and generally makes the kernel faster. The update | |
66 | of the condition is slower, but those are always very rare. | |

147 | bool |
148 | help | |
cf66bb93 DW |
149 | Modern versions of GCC (since 4.4) have builtin functions |
150 | for handling byte-swapping. Using these, instead of the old | |
151 | inline assembler that the architecture code provides in the | |
152 | __arch_bswapXX() macros, allows the compiler to see what's | |
153 | happening and offers more opportunity for optimisation. In | |
154 | particular, the compiler will be able to combine the byteswap | |
155 | with a nearby load or store and use load-and-swap or | |
156 | store-and-swap instructions if the architecture has them. It | |
157 | should almost *never* result in code which is worse than the | |
158 | hand-coded assembler in <asm/swab.h>. But just in case it | |
159 | does, the use of the builtins is optional. | |
160 | ||
161 | Any architecture with load-and-swap or store-and-swap | |
162 | instructions should set this. And it shouldn't hurt to set it | |
163 | on architectures that don't have such instructions. | |

1330 | An architecture should select this if it can handle the preemption |
1331 | model being selected at boot time using static keys. | |
1332 | ||
1333 | Each preemption function will be given an early return based on a | |
1334 | static key. This should have slightly lower overhead than non-inline | |
1335 | static calls, as this effectively inlines each trampoline into the | |
1336 | start of its callee. This may avoid redundant work, and may | |
1337 | integrate better with CFI schemes. | |
1338 | ||
1339 | This will have greater overhead than using inline static calls as | |
1340 | the call to the preemption function cannot be entirely elided. | |

1345 | An arch should select this symbol once all linker sections are explicitly | |
1346 | included, size-asserted, or discarded in the linker scripts. This is | |
1347 | important because we never want expected sections to be placed heuristically | |
1348 | by the linker, since the locations of such sections can change between linker | |
1349 | versions. | |

1364 | pairs of 32-bit arguments, select this option. | |
