This is used in unclear ways:
- Re-run Kconfig when the compiler is updated
The 'default' property references the environment variable,
CC_VERSION_TEXT so it is recorded in include/config/auto.conf.cmd.
When the compiler is updated, Kconfig will be invoked.
- Ensure full rebuild when the compier is updated
include/linux/kconfig.h contains this option in the comment line so
fixdep adds include/config/cc/version/text.h into the auto-generated
dependency. When the compiler is updated, syncconfig will touch it
and then every file will be rebuilt.

appended after any matching localversion* files, and after the value

help
The linux kernel is a kind of self-extracting executable.
Several compression algorithms are available, which differ
in efficiency, compression and decompression speed.
Compression speed is only relevant when building a kernel.
Decompression speed is relevant at each boot.
If you have any problems with bzip2 or lzma compressed
kernels, mail me (Alain Knaff) <alain@knaff.lu>. (An older
version of this functionality (bzip2 only), for 2.4, was
supplied by Christian Ludwig)
High compression options are mostly useful for users, who
are low on disk space (embedded systems), but for whom ram
size matters less.
If in doubt, select 'gzip'
config KERNEL_GZIP
bool "Gzip"
depends on HAVE_KERNEL_GZIP
help
The old and tried gzip compression. It provides a good balance
between compression ratio and decompression speed.
config KERNEL_BZIP2
bool "Bzip2"
depends on HAVE_KERNEL_BZIP2
help
Its compression ratio and speed is intermediate.
Decompression speed is slowest among the choices. The kernel
size is about 10% smaller with bzip2, in comparison to gzip.
Bzip2 uses a large amount of memory. For modern kernels you
will need at least 8MB RAM or more for booting.
config KERNEL_LZMA
bool "LZMA"
depends on HAVE_KERNEL_LZMA
help
This compression algorithm's ratio is best. Decompression speed
is between gzip and bzip2. Compression is slowest.
The kernel size is about 33% smaller with LZMA in comparison to gzip.
config KERNEL_XZ
bool "XZ"
depends on HAVE_KERNEL_XZ
help
XZ uses the LZMA2 algorithm and instruction set specific
BCJ filters which can improve compression ratio of executable
code. The size of the kernel is about 30% smaller with XZ in
comparison to gzip. On architectures for which there is a BCJ
filter (i386, x86_64, ARM, IA-64, PowerPC, and SPARC), XZ
will create a few percent smaller kernel than plain LZMA.
The speed is about the same as with LZMA: The decompression
speed of XZ is better than that of bzip2 but worse than gzip
and LZO. Compression is slow.
config KERNEL_LZO
bool "LZO"
depends on HAVE_KERNEL_LZO
help
Its compression ratio is the poorest among the choices. The kernel
size is about 10% bigger than gzip; however its speed
(both compression and decompression) is the fastest.
config KERNEL_LZ4
bool "LZ4"
depends on HAVE_KERNEL_LZ4
help
LZ4 is an LZ77-type compressor with a fixed, byte-oriented encoding.
A preliminary version of LZ4 de/compression tool is available at
<https://code.google.com/p/lz4/>.
Its compression ratio is worse than LZO. The size of the kernel
is about 8% bigger than LZO. But the decompression speed is
faster than LZO.
config KERNEL_ZSTD
bool "ZSTD"
depends on HAVE_KERNEL_ZSTD
help
ZSTD is a compression algorithm targeting intermediate compression
with fast decompression speed. It will compress better than GZIP and
decompress around the same speed as LZO, but slower than LZ4. You
will need at least 192 KB RAM or more for booting. The zstd command
line tool is required for compression.
config KERNEL_UNCOMPRESSED
bool "None"
depends on HAVE_KERNEL_UNCOMPRESSED
help
Produce uncompressed kernel image. This option is usually not what
you want. It is useful for debugging the kernel in slow simulation
environments, where decompressing and moving the kernel is awfully
slow. This option allows early boot code to skip the decompressor
and jump right at uncompressed kernel image.

config DEFAULT_INIT

help
This option determines the default init for the system if no init=
option is passed on the kernel command line. If the requested path is
not present, we will still then move on to attempting further
locations (e.g. /sbin/init, etc). If this is empty, we will just use

according to the number of CPUs. The value defines the contribution
of each CPU as a power of 2. The used space is typically only few
lines however it might be much more when problems are reported,
e.g. backtraces.
The increased size means that a new buffer has to be allocated and
the original static one is unused. It makes sense only on systems
with more CPUs. Therefore this value is used only when the sum of
contributions is greater than the half of the default kernel ring
buffer as defined by LOG_BUF_SHIFT. The default values are set
so that more than 16 CPUs are needed to trigger the allocation.
Also this option is ignored when "log_buf_len" kernel parameter is
used as it forces an exact (power of two) size of the ring buffer.

hotplugging making the computation optimal for the worst case
scenario while allowing a simple algorithm to be used from bootup.

the maximum frequency a task should use while the min utilization

Defines the number of clamp buckets to use. The range of each bucket
will be SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE/UCLAMP_BUCKETS_COUNT. The higher the
number of clamp buckets the finer their granularity and the higher
the precision of clamping aggregation and tracking at run-time.
For example, with the minimum configuration value we will have 5
clamp buckets tracking 20% utilization each. A 25% boosted tasks will
be refcounted in the [20..39]% bucket and will set the bucket clamp
effective value to 25%.
If a second 30% boosted task should be co-scheduled on the same CPU,
that task will be refcounted in the same bucket of the first task and
it will boost the bucket clamp effective value to 30%.
The clamp effective value of a bucket is reset to its nominal value
(20% in the example above) when there are no more tasks refcounted in
that bucket.
An additional boost/capping margin can be added to some tasks. In the
example above the 25% task will be boosted to 30% until it exits the
CPU. If that should be considered not acceptable on certain systems,
it's always possible to reduce the margin by increasing the number of
clamp buckets to trade off used memory for run-time tracking
precision.
If in doubt, use the default value.

Most modern CPUs support performance events via performance
counter registers. These registers count the number of certain
types of hw events: such as instructions executed, cachemisses
suffered, or branches mis-predicted - without slowing down the
kernel or applications. These registers can also trigger interrupts
when a threshold number of events have passed - and can thus be
used to profile the code that runs on that CPU.
The Linux Performance Event subsystem provides an abstraction of

5.2.27 Heterogeneous Memory Attribute Table (HMAT) in the ACPI
6.2a specification for an example of how a platform advertises

security benefits as it reduces the predictability of page
allocations to compliment SLAB_FREELIST_RANDOM, but the
default granularity of shuffling on the "MAX_ORDER - 1" i.e,
10th order of pages is selected based on cache utilization
benefits on x86.
While the randomization improves cache utilization it may
negatively impact workloads on platforms without a cache. For
this reason, by default, the randomization is enabled only

!!!WARNING!!! If you enable this option, you MUST make sure that the
module DOES NOT get stripped after being signed. This includes the
debuginfo strip done by some packagers (such as rpmbuild) and
inclusion into an initramfs that wants the module size reduced.

This determines which sort of hashing algorithm will be used during
signature generation. This algorithm _must_ be built into the kernel
directly so that signature verification can take place. It is not
possible to load a signed module containing the algorithm to check
the signature on that module.

Compresses kernel modules when 'make modules_install' is run; gzip or
xz depending on "Compression algorithm" below.
module-init-tools MAY support gzip, and kmod MAY support gzip and xz.
Out-of-tree kernel modules installed using Kbuild will also be
compressed upon installation.
Note: for modules inside an initrd or initramfs, it's more efficient
to compress the whole initrd or initramfs instead.
Note: This is fully compatible with signed modules.
If in doubt, say N.

config MODULE_ALLOW_MISSING_NAMESPACE_IMPORTS
bool "Allow loading of modules with missing namespace imports"
help
Symbols exported with EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS*() are considered exported in
a namespace. A module that makes use of a symbol exported with such a
namespace is required to import the namespace via MODULE_IMPORT_NS().
There is no technical reason to enforce correct namespace imports,
but it creates consistency between symbols defining namespaces and
users importing namespaces they make use of. This option relaxes this
requirement and lifts the enforcement when loading a module.
If unsure, say N.
config UNUSED_SYMBOLS
bool "Enable unused/obsolete exported symbols"
default y if X86
help
Unused but exported symbols make the kernel needlessly bigger. For
that reason most of these unused exports will soon be removed. This
option is provided temporarily to provide a transition period in case
some external kernel module needs one of these symbols anyway. If you
encounter such a case in your module, consider if you are actually
using the right API. (rationale: since nobody in the kernel is using
this in a module, there is a pretty good chance it's actually the
wrong interface to use). If you really need the symbol, please send a
mail to the linux kernel mailing list mentioning the symbol and why
you really need it, and what the merge plan to the mainline kernel for
your module is.
config TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS
bool "Trim unused exported kernel symbols"
depends on !UNUSED_SYMBOLS
help
The kernel and some modules make many symbols available for
other modules to use via EXPORT_SYMBOL() and variants. Depending
on the set of modules being selected in your kernel configuration,
many of those exported symbols might never be used.
This option allows for unused exported symbols to be dropped from
the build. In turn, this provides the compiler more opportunities
(especially when using LTO) for optimizing the code and reducing
binary size. This might have some security advantages as well.
If unsure, or if you need to build out-of-tree modules, say N.

set here is the path to a text file containing the list of symbols,
one per line. The path can be absolute, or relative to the kernel
source tree.
