This adds the generic HAVE_ARCH_TRACEHOOK kconfig item. Each arch should add to some Kconfig file: select HAVE_ARCH_TRACEHOOK if the arch code uses all the latest hooks to enable newfangled tracing and debugging code. The comment in arch/Kconfig lists all the prerequisite arch support. When all these are available, setting HAVE_ARCH_TRACEHOOK will allow enabling any new features that depend on the modern arch interfaces.

OProfile is a profiling system capable of profiling the
|
|
whole system, include the kernel, kernel modules, libraries,
|
|
and applications.
|
|
|
|
If unsure, say N.

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 HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS
|
|
def_bool n
|
|
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.
