8 - Re-run Kconfig when the compiler is updated
9 The 'default' property references the environment variable,
10 CC_VERSION_TEXT so it is recorded in include/config/auto.conf.cmd.
11 When the compiler is updated, Kconfig will be invoked.
12
13 - Ensure full rebuild when the compiler is updated
14 include/linux/compiler-version.h contains this option in the comment
15 line so fixdep adds include/config/CC_VERSION_TEXT into the
16 auto-generated dependency. When the compiler is updated, syncconfig
17 will touch it and then every file will be rebuilt.

785 contributions is greater than the half of the default kernel ring

856 the precision of clamping aggregation and tracking at run-time.
857
858 For example, with the minimum configuration value we will have 5
859 clamp buckets tracking 20% utilization each. A 25% boosted tasks will
860 be refcounted in the [20..39]% bucket and will set the bucket clamp
861 effective value to 25%.
862 If a second 30% boosted task should be co-scheduled on the same CPU,
863 that task will be refcounted in the same bucket of the first task and
864 it will boost the bucket clamp effective value to 30%.
865 The clamp effective value of a bucket is reset to its nominal value
866 (20% in the example above) when there are no more tasks refcounted in
867 that bucket.
868
869 An additional boost/capping margin can be added to some tasks. In the
870 example above the 25% task will be boosted to 30% until it exits the
871 CPU. If that should be considered not acceptable on certain systems,
872 it's always possible to reduce the margin by increasing the number of
873 clamp buckets to trade off used memory for run-time tracking
874 precision.

1858 Normally kallsyms only contains the symbols of functions for nicer
1859 OOPS messages and backtraces (i.e., symbols from the text and inittext
1860 sections). This is sufficient for most cases. And only if you want to
1861 enable kernel live patching, or other less common use cases (e.g.,
1862 when a debugger is used) all symbols are required (i.e., names of
1863 variables from the data sections, etc).
1864
1865 This option makes sure that all symbols are loaded into the kernel
1866 image (i.e., symbols from all sections) in cost of increased kernel
1867 size (depending on the kernel configuration, it may be 300KiB or
1868 something like this).

1906 help
1907 Enable kernel support for various performance events provided
1908 by software and hardware.
1909
1910 Software events are supported either built-in or via the
1911 use of generic tracepoints.
1912
1913 Most modern CPUs support performance events via performance
1914 counter registers. These registers count the number of certain
1915 types of hw events: such as instructions executed, cachemisses
1916 suffered, or branches mis-predicted - without slowing down the
1917 kernel or applications. These registers can also trigger interrupts
1918 when a threshold number of events have passed - and can thus be
1919 used to profile the code that runs on that CPU.
1920
1921 The Linux Performance Event subsystem provides an abstraction of
1922 these software and hardware event capabilities, available via a
1923 system call and used by the "perf" utility in tools/perf/. It
1924 provides per task and per CPU counters, and it provides event
1925 capabilities on top of those.
