   6	  This is used in unclear ways:

   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

 283	  The linux kernel is a kind of self-extracting executable.
 284	  Several compression algorithms are available, which differ

 329	  XZ uses the LZMA2 algorithm and instruction set specific
 330	  BCJ filters which can improve compression ratio of executable
 331	  code. The size of the kernel is about 30% smaller with XZ in

 333	  filter (i386, x86_64, ARM, ARM64, RISC-V, big endian PowerPC,
 334	  and SPARC), XZ will create a few percent smaller kernel than
 335	  plain LZMA.
 336
 337	  The speed is about the same as with LZMA: The decompression

 366	  with fast decompression speed. It will compress better than GZIP and
 367	  decompress around the same speed as LZO, but slower than LZ4. You
 368	  will need at least 192 KB RAM or more for booting. The zstd command

 776	  lines however it might be much more when problems are reported,

 837

 853	  the precision of clamping aggregation and tracking at run-time.
 854
 855	  For example, with the minimum configuration value we will have 5
 856	  clamp buckets tracking 20% utilization each. A 25% boosted tasks will
 857	  be refcounted in the [20..39]% bucket and will set the bucket clamp
 858	  effective value to 25%.
 859	  If a second 30% boosted task should be co-scheduled on the same CPU,
 860	  that task will be refcounted in the same bucket of the first task and
 861	  it will boost the bucket clamp effective value to 30%.
 862	  The clamp effective value of a bucket is reset to its nominal value
 863	  (20% in the example above) when there are no more tasks refcounted in
 864	  that bucket.
 865
 866	  An additional boost/capping margin can be added to some tasks. In the
 867	  example above the 25% task will be boosted to 30% until it exits the
 868	  CPU. If that should be considered not acceptable on certain systems,
 869	  it's always possible to reduce the margin by increasing the number of
 870	  clamp buckets to trade off used memory for run-time tracking
 871	  precision.
