[HW,JOY] Multisystem joystick and NES/SNES/PSX pad
support via parallel port (up to 5 devices per port)
last alloc / free. For more information see
Documentation/vm/slub.rst.
- slub_memcg_sysfs= [MM, SLUB]
- Determines whether to enable sysfs directories for
- memory cgroup sub-caches. 1 to enable, 0 to disable.
- The default is determined by CONFIG_SLUB_MEMCG_SYSFS_ON.
- Enabling this can lead to a very high number of debug
- directories and files being created under
- /sys/kernel/slub.
-
slub_max_order= [MM, SLUB]
Determines the maximum allowed order for slabs.
A high setting may cause OOMs due to memory
default x2apic cluster mode on platforms
supporting x2apic.
- x86_intel_mid_timer= [X86-32,APBT]
- Choose timer option for x86 Intel MID platform.
- Two valid options are apbt timer only and lapic timer
- plus one apbt timer for broadcast timer.
- x86_intel_mid_timer=apbt_only | lapic_and_apbt

xen_512gb_limit [KNL,X86-64,XEN]
Restricts the kernel running paravirtualized under Xen
to use only up to 512 GB of RAM. The reason to do so is
SLUB sysfs support. /sys/slab will not exist and there will be
no support for cache validation etc.
- config SLUB_MEMCG_SYSFS_ON
- default n
- bool "Enable memcg SLUB sysfs support by default" if EXPERT
- depends on SLUB && SYSFS && MEMCG
- help
- SLUB creates a directory under /sys/kernel/slab for each
- allocation cache to host info and debug files. If memory
- cgroup is enabled, each cache can have per memory cgroup
- caches. SLUB can create the same sysfs directories for these
- caches under /sys/kernel/slab/CACHE/cgroup but it can lead
- to a very high number of debug files being created. This is
- controlled by slub_memcg_sysfs boot parameter and this
- config option determines the parameter's default value.

config COMPAT_BRK
bool "Disable heap randomization"
default y
If unsure, say N.
config TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS
- bool "Trim unused exported kernel symbols"
- depends on BROKEN
+ bool "Trim unused exported kernel symbols" if EXPERT
+ depends on !COMPILE_TEST
help
The kernel and some modules make many symbols available for
other modules to use via EXPORT_SYMBOL() and variants. Depending
