57 help
58 This option enables a transparent branch optimization that
59 makes certain almost-always-true or almost-always-false branch
60 conditions even cheaper to execute within the kernel.
61
62 Certain performance-sensitive kernel code, such as trace points,
63 scheduler functionality, networking code and KVM have such
64 branches and include support for this optimization technique.
65
66 If it is detected that the compiler has support for "asm goto",
67 the kernel will compile such branches with just a nop
68 instruction. When the condition flag is toggled to true, the
69 nop will be converted to a jump instruction to execute the
70 conditional block of instructions.
71
72 This technique lowers overhead and stress on the branch prediction
73 of the processor and generally makes the kernel faster. The update
74 of the condition is slower, but those are always very rare.

77 flags may increase the size of the kernel slightly. )

126 architectures without unaligned access.

139 without the use of get_unaligned/put_unaligned. Others are
140 unable to perform such accesses efficiently (e.g. trap on
141 unaligned access and require fixing it up in the exception
142 handler.)

144 This symbol should be selected by an architecture if it can
145 perform unaligned accesses efficiently to allow different
146 code paths to be selected for these cases. Some network

148 problems with received packets if doing so would not help

154config ARCH_USE_BUILTIN_BSWAP
155 bool
156 help
157 Modern versions of GCC (since 4.4) have builtin functions
158 for handling byte-swapping. Using these, instead of the old
159 inline assembler that the architecture code provides in the
160 __arch_bswapXX() macros, allows the compiler to see what's
161 happening and offers more opportunity for optimisation. In
162 particular, the compiler will be able to combine the byteswap
163 with a nearby load or store and use load-and-swap or
164 store-and-swap instructions if the architecture has them. It
165 should almost *never* result in code which is worse than the
166 hand-coded assembler in <asm/swab.h>. But just in case it
167 does, the use of the builtins is optional.
168
169 Any architecture with load-and-swap or store-and-swap
170 instructions should set this. And it shouldn't hurt to set it
171 on architectures that don't have such instructions.

652 ones documented for user space. The kernel must store addresses
653 of shadow stacks in memory, which means an attacker capable of

1362 Where an architecture selects HAVE_STATIC_CALL_INLINE, any call to a

1365 Where an architecture does not select HAVE_STATIC_CALL_INLINE, any

1379
1380 Each preemption function will be given an early return based on a
1381 static key. This should have slightly lower overhead than non-inline
1382 static calls, as this effectively inlines each trampoline into the
1383 start of its callee. This may avoid redundant work, and may
1384 integrate better with CFI schemes.
1385
1386 This will have greater overhead than using inline static calls as
1387 the call to the preemption function cannot be entirely elided.
