5config OPROFILE
6    tristate "OProfile system profiling"
7    depends on PROFILING
8    depends on HAVE_OPROFILE
9    select RING_BUFFER
10    select RING_BUFFER_ALLOW_SWAP
11    help
12      OProfile is a profiling system capable of profiling the
13      whole system, include the kernel, kernel modules, libraries,
14      and applications.
15
16      If unsure, say N.
17
18config OPROFILE_EVENT_MULTIPLEX
19    bool "OProfile multiplexing support (EXPERIMENTAL)"
20    default n
21    depends on OPROFILE && X86
22    help
23      The number of hardware counters is limited. The multiplexing
24      feature enables OProfile to gather more events than counters
25      are provided by the hardware. This is realized by switching
26      between events at an user specified time interval.
27
28      If unsure, say N.
29
30config HAVE_OPROFILE
31    bool
32
33config KPROBES
34    bool "Kprobes"
35    depends on MODULES
36    depends on HAVE_KPROBES
37    select KALLSYMS
38    help
39      Kprobes allows you to trap at almost any kernel address and
40      execute a callback function. register_kprobe() establishes
41      a probepoint and specifies the callback. Kprobes is useful
42      for kernel debugging, non-intrusive instrumentation and testing.
43      If in doubt, say "N".
44
45config JUMP_LABEL
46       bool "Optimize trace point call sites"
47       depends on HAVE_ARCH_JUMP_LABEL
48       help
49         If it is detected that the compiler has support for "asm goto",
50     the kernel will compile trace point locations with just a
51     nop instruction. When trace points are enabled, the nop will
52     be converted to a jump to the trace function. This technique
53     lowers overhead and stress on the branch prediction of the
54     processor.
55
56     On i386, options added to the compiler flags may increase
57     the size of the kernel slightly.
58
59config OPTPROBES
60    def_bool y
61    depends on KPROBES && HAVE_OPTPROBES
62    depends on !PREEMPT
63
64config HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS
65    bool
66    help
67      Some architectures are unable to perform unaligned accesses
68      without the use of get_unaligned/put_unaligned. Others are
69      unable to perform such accesses efficiently (e.g. trap on
70      unaligned access and require fixing it up in the exception
71      handler.)
72
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.
79
80      See Documentation/unaligned-memory-access.txt for more
81      information on the topic of unaligned memory accesses.

83config HAVE_SYSCALL_WRAPPERS

86config KRETPROBES

88    depends on KPROBES && HAVE_KRETPROBES

90config USER_RETURN_NOTIFIER
91    bool
92    depends on HAVE_USER_RETURN_NOTIFIER
93    help
94      Provide a kernel-internal notification when a cpu is about to
95      switch to user mode.

109# An arch should select this if it provides all these things:

111# task_pt_regs() in asm/processor.h or asm/ptrace.h
112# arch_has_single_step() if there is hardware single-step support
113# arch_has_block_step() if there is hardware block-step support
114# asm/syscall.h supplying asm-generic/syscall.h interface
115# linux/regset.h user_regset interfaces

129
130config HAVE_REGS_AND_STACK_ACCESS_API
131    bool
132    help
133      This symbol should be selected by an architecure if it supports
134      the API needed to access registers and stack entries from pt_regs,
135      declared in asm/ptrace.h
136      For example the kprobes-based event tracer needs this API.
137
138config HAVE_CLK
139    bool
140    help
141      The <linux/clk.h> calls support software clock gating and
142      thus are a key power management tool on many systems.
143

153
154config HAVE_MIXED_BREAKPOINTS_REGS
155    bool
156    depends on HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINT
157    help
158      Depending on the arch implementation of hardware breakpoints,
159      some of them have separate registers for data and instruction
160      breakpoints addresses, others have mixed registers to store
161      them but define the access type in a control register.
162      Select this option if your arch implements breakpoints under the
163      latter fashion.
164
165config HAVE_USER_RETURN_NOTIFIER
166    bool

168config HAVE_PERF_EVENTS_NMI
169    bool
170    help
171      System hardware can generate an NMI using the perf event
172      subsystem. Also has support for calculating CPU cycle events
173      to determine how many clock cycles in a given period.
