42 Kprobes allows you to trap at almost any kernel address and
43 execute a callback function. register_kprobe() establishes
44 a probepoint and specifies the callback. Kprobes is useful
45 for kernel debugging, non-intrusive instrumentation and testing.

53 This option enables a transparent branch optimization that

54 makes certain almost-always-true or almost-always-false branch
55 conditions even cheaper to execute within the kernel.
56
57 Certain performance-sensitive kernel code, such as trace points,
58 scheduler functionality, networking code and KVM have such
59 branches and include support for this optimization technique.
60
24b54fee 61 If it is detected that the compiler has support for "asm goto",
c5905afb
IM
62 the kernel will compile such branches with just a nop
63 instruction. When the condition flag is toggled to true, the
64 nop will be converted to a jump instruction to execute the
65 conditional block of instructions.
66
67 This technique lowers overhead and stress on the branch prediction
68 of the processor and generally makes the kernel faster. The update
69 of the condition is slower, but those are always very rare.

104 Uprobes is the user-space counterpart to kprobes: they
105 enable instrumentation applications (such as 'perf probe')
106 to establish unintrusive probes in user-space binaries and

108 are hit by user-space applications.

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

1114 help
1115 An arch should select this symbol if it can support kernel stacks
1116 in vmalloc space. This means:
1117
1118 - vmalloc space must be large enough to hold many kernel stacks.
1119 This may rule out many 32-bit architectures.
1120
1121 - Stacks in vmalloc space need to work reliably. For example, if
1122 vmap page tables are created on demand, either this mechanism
1123 needs to work while the stack points to a virtual address with
1124 unpopulated page tables or arch code (switch_to() and switch_mm(),
1125 most likely) needs to ensure that the stack's page table entries
1126 are populated before running on a possibly unpopulated stack.
1127
1128 - If the stack overflows into a guard page, something reasonable
1129 should happen. The definition of "reasonable" is flexible, but
1130 instantly rebooting without logging anything would be unfriendly.

1138 Enable this if you want the use virtually-mapped kernel stacks

1143 To use this with software KASAN modes, the architecture must support

1151 offset randomization with calls to add_random_kstack_offset()
1152 during syscall entry and choose_random_kstack_offset() during
1153 syscall exit. Careful removal of -fstack-protector-strong and
1154 -fstack-protector should also be applied to the entry code and
1155 closely examined, as the artificial stack bump looks like an array
1156 to the compiler, so it will attempt to add canary checks regardless
1157 of the static branch state.

1163 The kernel stack offset can be randomized (after pt_regs) by
1164 roughly 5 bits of entropy, frustrating memory corruption
1165 attacks that depend on stack address determinism or
1166 cross-syscall address exposures. This feature is controlled
1167 by kernel boot param "randomize_kstack_offset=on/off", and this
1168 config chooses the default boot state.
