 64         This option enables a transparent branch optimization that

 66	 conditions even cheaper to execute within the kernel.
 67
 68	 Certain performance-sensitive kernel code, such as trace points,
 69	 scheduler functionality, networking code and KVM have such
 70	 branches and include support for this optimization technique.
 71
 72         If it is detected that the compiler has support for "asm goto",
 73	 the kernel will compile such branches with just a nop
 74	 instruction. When the condition flag is toggled to true, the
 75	 nop will be converted to a jump instruction to execute the
 76	 conditional block of instructions.
 77
 78	 This technique lowers overhead and stress on the branch prediction
 79	 of the processor and generally makes the kernel faster. The update
 80	 of the condition is slower, but those are always very rare.

143
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

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

164	 particular, the compiler will be able to combine the byteswap
165	 with a nearby load or store and use load-and-swap or
166	 store-and-swap instructions if the architecture has them. It

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

854	    This may rule out many 32-bit architectures.
855
856	  - Stacks in vmalloc space need to work reliably.  For example, if
857	    vmap page tables are created on demand, either this mechanism
858	    needs to work while the stack points to a virtual address with
859	    unpopulated page tables or arch code (switch_to() and switch_mm(),
860	    most likely) needs to ensure that the stack's page table entries
861	    are populated before running on a possibly unpopulated stack.
862
863	  - If the stack overflows into a guard page, something reasonable
864	    should happen.  The definition of "reasonable" is flexible, but
