42 | Kprobes allows you to trap at almost any kernel address and | |
43 | execute a callback function. register_kprobe() establishes | |
44 | a probepoint and specifies the callback. Kprobes is useful | |

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

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

1025 | An arch should select this symbol if it can support kernel stacks | |

1029 | This may rule out many 32-bit architectures. | |
1030 | ||
1031 | - Stacks in vmalloc space need to work reliably. For example, if | |
1032 | vmap page tables are created on demand, either this mechanism | |
1033 | needs to work while the stack points to a virtual address with | |
1034 | unpopulated page tables or arch code (switch_to() and switch_mm(), | |
1035 | most likely) needs to ensure that the stack's page table entries | |
1036 | are populated before running on a possibly unpopulated stack. | |
