  11. OProfile is a profiling system capable of profiling the
  12. whole system, include the kernel, kernel modules, libraries,

  19. help
  20. The number of hardware counters is limited. The multiplexing
  21. feature enables OProfile to gather more events than counters
  22. are provided by the hardware. This is realized by switching

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

  67. help
  68. Some architectures are unable to perform unaligned accesses
  69. without the use of get_unaligned/put_unaligned. Others are
  70. unable to perform such accesses efficiently (e.g. trap on
  71. unaligned access and require fixing it up in the exception
  72. handler.)
  73. This symbol should be selected by an architecture if it can
  74. perform unaligned accesses efficiently to allow different
  75. code paths to be selected for these cases. Some network
  76. drivers, for example, could opt to not fix up alignment
  77. problems with received packets if doing so would not help
  78. much.

  80. information on the topic of unaligned memory accesses.
