  	  OProfile is a profiling system capable of profiling the

  	  and applications.
  
  	  If unsure, say N.
  
  config OPROFILE_EVENT_MULTIPLEX
  	bool "OProfile multiplexing support (EXPERIMENTAL)"
  	default n
  	depends on OPROFILE && X86
  	help
  	  The number of hardware counters is limited. The multiplexing
  	  feature enables OProfile to gather more events than counters
  	  are provided by the hardware. This is realized by switching
  	  between events at a user specified time interval.
  
  	  If unsure, say N.

  	depends on HAVE_KPROBES
  	select KALLSYMS
  	help
  	  Kprobes allows you to trap at almost any kernel address and
  	  execute a callback function.  register_kprobe() establishes
  	  a probepoint and specifies the callback.  Kprobes is useful
  	  for kernel debugging, non-intrusive instrumentation and testing.
  	  If in doubt, say "N".
  
  config JUMP_LABEL
         bool "Optimize very unlikely/likely branches"
         depends on HAVE_ARCH_JUMP_LABEL
         help
           This option enables a transparent branch optimization that
  	 makes certain almost-always-true or almost-always-false branch
  	 conditions even cheaper to execute within the kernel.
  
  	 Certain performance-sensitive kernel code, such as trace points,
  	 scheduler functionality, networking code and KVM have such
  	 branches and include support for this optimization technique.
  
           If it is detected that the compiler has support for "asm goto",
  	 the kernel will compile such branches with just a nop
  	 instruction. When the condition flag is toggled to true, the
  	 nop will be converted to a jump instruction to execute the
  	 conditional block of instructions.
  
  	 This technique lowers overhead and stress on the branch prediction
  	 of the processor and generally makes the kernel faster. The update
  	 of the condition is slower, but those are always very rare.
  
  	 ( On 32-bit x86, the necessary options added to the compiler
  	   flags may increase the size of the kernel slightly. )

  	 If function tracer is enabled and the arch supports full
  	 passing of pt_regs to function tracing, then kprobes can
  	 optimize on top of function tracing.
  
  config UPROBES
  	def_bool n
  	depends on ARCH_SUPPORTS_UPROBES
  	help
  	  Uprobes is the user-space counterpart to kprobes: they
  	  enable instrumentation applications (such as 'perf probe')
  	  to establish unintrusive probes in user-space binaries and
  	  libraries, by executing handler functions when the probes
  	  are hit by user-space applications.
  
  	  ( These probes come in the form of single-byte breakpoints,
  	    managed by the kernel and kept transparent to the probed
  	    application. )
  
  config HAVE_64BIT_ALIGNED_ACCESS
  	def_bool 64BIT && !HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS
  	help
  	  Some architectures require 64 bit accesses to be 64 bit
  	  aligned, which also requires structs containing 64 bit values
  	  to be 64 bit aligned too. This includes some 32 bit
  	  architectures which can do 64 bit accesses, as well as 64 bit
  	  architectures without unaligned access.
  
  	  This symbol should be selected by an architecture if 64 bit
  	  accesses are required to be 64 bit aligned in this way even
  	  though it is not a 64 bit architecture.
  
  	  See Documentation/unaligned-memory-access.txt for more
  	  information on the topic of unaligned memory accesses.
  
  config HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS
  	bool
  	help
  	  Some architectures are unable to perform unaligned accesses
  	  without the use of get_unaligned/put_unaligned. Others are
  	  unable to perform such accesses efficiently (e.g. trap on
  	  unaligned access and require fixing it up in the exception
  	  handler.)
  
  	  This symbol should be selected by an architecture if it can
  	  perform unaligned accesses efficiently to allow different
  	  code paths to be selected for these cases. Some network
  	  drivers, for example, could opt to not fix up alignment
  	  problems with received packets if doing so would not help
  	  much.
  
  	  See Documentation/unaligned-memory-access.txt for more
  	  information on the topic of unaligned memory accesses.
  
  config ARCH_USE_BUILTIN_BSWAP
         bool
         help
  	 Modern versions of GCC (since 4.4) have builtin functions
  	 for handling byte-swapping. Using these, instead of the old
  	 inline assembler that the architecture code provides in the
  	 __arch_bswapXX() macros, allows the compiler to see what's
  	 happening and offers more opportunity for optimisation. In

  	def_bool n
  	help
  	  An arch should select this symbol if it can support kernel stacks
  	  in vmalloc space.  This means:
  
  	  - vmalloc space must be large enough to hold many kernel stacks.
  	    This may rule out many 32-bit architectures.
  
  	  - Stacks in vmalloc space need to work reliably.  For example, if
  	    vmap page tables are created on demand, either this mechanism
  	    needs to work while the stack points to a virtual address with
  	    unpopulated page tables or arch code (switch_to() and switch_mm(),
  	    most likely) needs to ensure that the stack's page table entries
  	    are populated before running on a possibly unpopulated stack.
  
  	  - If the stack overflows into a guard page, something reasonable
  	    should happen.  The definition of "reasonable" is flexible, but
  	    instantly rebooting without logging anything would be unfriendly.

  	---help---
  	  Enable this if you want the use virtually-mapped kernel stacks
  	  with guard pages.  This causes kernel stack overflows to be
  	  caught immediately rather than causing difficult-to-diagnose
  	  corruption.
  
  	  This is presently incompatible with KASAN because KASAN expects
  	  the stack to map directly to the KASAN shadow map using a formula
  	  that is incorrect if the stack is in vmalloc space.
