Despite they cannot be loaded there (or even when they load they cannot be used due to missing HW support), developers still, opposing to distributors, might want to build such drivers to compile-test them. If you are a developer and want to build everything available, say Y here. If you are a user/distributor, say N here to exclude useless drivers to be distributed. config WERROR bool "Compile the kernel with warnings as errors" default COMPILE_TEST help A kernel build should not cause any compiler warnings, and this enables the '-Werror' (for C) and '-Dwarnings' (for Rust) flags to enforce that rule by default. Certain warnings from other tools such as the linker may be upgraded to errors with this option as well. However, if you have a new (or very old) compiler or linker with odd and unusual warnings, or you have some architecture with problems, you may need to disable this config option in order to successfully build the kernel. If in doubt, say Y. config UAPI_HEADER_TEST bool "Compile test UAPI headers" depends on HEADERS_INSTALL && CC_CAN_LINK help Compile test headers exported to user-space to ensure they are self-contained, i.e. compilable as standalone units. If you are a developer or tester and want to ensure the exported headers are self-contained, say Y here. Otherwise, choose N. config LOCALVERSION string "Local version - append to kernel release" help Append an extra string to the end of your kernel version. This will show up when you type uname, for example. The string you set here will be appended after the contents of any files with a filename matching localversion* in your object and source tree, in that order. Your total string can be a maximum of 64 characters. config LOCALVERSION_AUTO bool "Automatically append version information to the version string" default y depends on !COMPILE_TEST help This will try to automatically determine if the current tree is a release tree by looking for git tags that belong to the current top of tree revision. A string of the format -gxxxxxxxx will be added to the localversion if a git-based tree is found. The string generated by this will be appended after any matching localversion* files, and after the value set in CONFIG_LOCALVERSION. (The actual string used here is the first 12 characters produced by running the command: $ git rev-parse --verify HEAD which is done within the script "scripts/setlocalversion".) config BUILD_SALT string "Build ID Salt" default "" help The build ID is used to link binaries and their debug info. Setting this option will use the value in the calculation of the build id. This is mostly useful for distributions which want to ensure the build is unique between builds. It's safe to leave the default. config HAVE_KERNEL_GZIP bool config HAVE_KERNEL_BZIP2 bool config HAVE_KERNEL_LZMA bool config HAVE_KERNEL_XZ bool config HAVE_KERNEL_LZO bool config HAVE_KERNEL_LZ4 bool config HAVE_KERNEL_ZSTD bool config HAVE_KERNEL_UNCOMPRESSED bool choice prompt "Kernel compression mode" default KERNEL_GZIP depends on HAVE_KERNEL_GZIP || HAVE_KERNEL_BZIP2 || HAVE_KERNEL_LZMA || HAVE_KERNEL_XZ || HAVE_KERNEL_LZO || HAVE_KERNEL_LZ4 || HAVE_KERNEL_ZSTD || HAVE_KERNEL_UNCOMPRESSED 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. endchoice config DEFAULT_INIT string "Default init path" default "" 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 the fallback list when init= is not passed. config DEFAULT_HOSTNAME string "Default hostname" default "(none)" help This option determines the default system hostname before userspace calls sethostname(2). The kernel traditionally uses "(none)" here, but you may wish to use a different default here to make a minimal system more usable with less configuration. config VERSION_SIGNATURE string "Arbitrary version signature" help This string will be created in a file, /proc/version_signature. It is useful in determining arbitrary data about your kernel. For instance, if you have several kernels of the same version, but need to keep track of a revision of the same kernel, but not affect it's ability to load compatible modules, this is the easiest way to do that. config SYSVIPC bool "System V IPC" help Inter Process Communication is a suite of library functions and system calls which let processes (running programs) synchronize and exchange information. It is generally considered to be a good thing, and some programs won't run unless you say Y here. In particular, if you want to run the DOS emulator dosemu under Linux (read the DOSEMU-HOWTO, available from <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>), you'll need to say Y here. You can find documentation about IPC with "info ipc" and also in section 6.4 of the Linux Programmer's Guide, available from <http://www.tldp.org/guides.html>. config SYSVIPC_SYSCTL bool depends on SYSVIPC depends on SYSCTL default y config SYSVIPC_COMPAT def_bool y depends on COMPAT && SYSVIPC config POSIX_MQUEUE bool "POSIX Message Queues" depends on NET help POSIX variant of message queues is a part of IPC. In POSIX message queues every message has a priority which decides about succession of receiving it by a process. If you want to compile and run programs written e.g. for Solaris with use of its POSIX message queues (functions mq_*) say Y here. POSIX message queues are visible as a filesystem called 'mqueue' and can be mounted somewhere if you want to do filesystem operations on message queues. If unsure, say Y. config POSIX_MQUEUE_SYSCTL bool depends on POSIX_MQUEUE depends on SYSCTL default y config WATCH_QUEUE bool "General notification queue" default n help This is a general notification queue for the kernel to pass events to userspace by splicing them into pipes. It can be used in conjunction with watches for key/keyring change notifications and device notifications. See Documentation/core-api/watch_queue.rst config CROSS_MEMORY_ATTACH bool "Enable process_vm_readv/writev syscalls" depends on MMU default y help Enabling this option adds the system calls process_vm_readv and process_vm_writev which allow a process with the correct privileges to directly read from or write to another process' address space. See the man page for more details. config USELIB bool "uselib syscall (for libc5 and earlier)" default ALPHA || M68K || SPARC help This option enables the uselib syscall, a system call used in the dynamic linker from libc5 and earlier. glibc does not use this system call. If you intend to run programs built on libc5 or earlier, you may need to enable this syscall. Current systems running glibc can safely disable this. config AUDIT bool "Auditing support" depends on NET help Enable auditing infrastructure that can be used with another kernel subsystem, such as SELinux (which requires this for logging of avc messages output). System call auditing is included on architectures which support it. config HAVE_ARCH_AUDITSYSCALL bool config AUDITSYSCALL def_bool y depends on AUDIT && HAVE_ARCH_AUDITSYSCALL select FSNOTIFY source "kernel/irq/Kconfig" source "kernel/time/Kconfig" source "kernel/bpf/Kconfig" source "kernel/Kconfig.preempt" menu "CPU/Task time and stats accounting" config VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING bool choice prompt "Cputime accounting" default TICK_CPU_ACCOUNTING # Kind of a stub config for the pure tick based cputime accounting config TICK_CPU_ACCOUNTING bool "Simple tick based cputime accounting" depends on !S390 && !NO_HZ_FULL help This is the basic tick based cputime accounting that maintains statistics about user, system and idle time spent on per jiffies granularity. If unsure, say Y. config VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE bool "Deterministic task and CPU time accounting" depends on HAVE_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING && !NO_HZ_FULL select VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING help Select this option to enable more accurate task and CPU time accounting. This is done by reading a CPU counter on each kernel entry and exit and on transitions within the kernel between system, softirq and hardirq state, so there is a small performance impact. In the case of s390 or IBM POWER > 5, this also enables accounting of stolen time on logically-partitioned systems. config VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN bool "Full dynticks CPU time accounting" depends on HAVE_CONTEXT_TRACKING_USER depends on HAVE_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN depends on GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS select VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING select CONTEXT_TRACKING_USER help Select this option to enable task and CPU time accounting on full dynticks systems. This accounting is implemented by watching every kernel-user boundaries using the context tracking subsystem. The accounting is thus performed at the expense of some significant overhead. For now this is only useful if you are working on the full dynticks subsystem development. If unsure, say N. endchoice config IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING bool "Fine granularity task level IRQ time accounting" depends on HAVE_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING && !VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE help Select this option to enable fine granularity task irq time accounting. This is done by reading a timestamp on each transitions between softirq and hardirq state, so there can be a small performance impact. If in doubt, say N here. config HAVE_SCHED_AVG_IRQ def_bool y depends on IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING || PARAVIRT_TIME_ACCOUNTING depends on SMP config SCHED_THERMAL_PRESSURE bool default y if ARM && ARM_CPU_TOPOLOGY default y if ARM64 depends on SMP depends on CPU_FREQ_THERMAL help Select this option to enable thermal pressure accounting in the scheduler. Thermal pressure is the value conveyed to the scheduler that reflects the reduction in CPU compute capacity resulted from thermal throttling. Thermal throttling occurs when the performance of a CPU is capped due to high operating temperatures. If selected, the scheduler will be able to balance tasks accordingly, i.e. put less load on throttled CPUs than on non/less throttled ones. This requires the architecture to implement arch_update_thermal_pressure() and arch_scale_thermal_pressure(). config BSD_PROCESS_ACCT bool "BSD Process Accounting" depends on MULTIUSER help If you say Y here, a user level program will be able to instruct the kernel (via a special system call) to write process accounting information to a file: whenever a process exits, information about that process will be appended to the file by the kernel. The information includes things such as creation time, owning user, command name, memory usage, controlling terminal etc. (the complete list is in the struct acct in <file:include/linux/acct.h>). It is up to the user level program to do useful things with this information. This is generally a good idea, so say Y. config BSD_PROCESS_ACCT_V3 bool "BSD Process Accounting version 3 file format" depends on BSD_PROCESS_ACCT default n help If you say Y here, the process accounting information is written in a new file format that also logs the process IDs of each process and its parent. Note that this file format is incompatible with previous v0/v1/v2 file formats, so you will need updated tools for processing it. A preliminary version of these tools is available at <http://www.gnu.org/software/acct/>. config TASKSTATS bool "Export task/process statistics through netlink" depends on NET depends on MULTIUSER default n help Export selected statistics for tasks/processes through the generic netlink interface. Unlike BSD process accounting, the statistics are available during the lifetime of tasks/processes as responses to commands. Like BSD accounting, they are sent to user space on task exit. Say N if unsure. config TASK_DELAY_ACCT bool "Enable per-task delay accounting" depends on TASKSTATS select SCHED_INFO help Collect information on time spent by a task waiting for system resources like cpu, synchronous block I/O completion and swapping in pages. Such statistics can help in setting a task's priorities relative to other tasks for cpu, io, rss limits etc. Say N if unsure. config TASK_XACCT bool "Enable extended accounting over taskstats" depends on TASKSTATS help Collect extended task accounting data and send the data to userland for processing over the taskstats interface. Say N if unsure. config TASK_IO_ACCOUNTING bool "Enable per-task storage I/O accounting" depends on TASK_XACCT help Collect information on the number of bytes of storage I/O which this task has caused. Say N if unsure. config PSI bool "Pressure stall information tracking" select KERNFS help Collect metrics that indicate how overcommitted the CPU, memory, and IO capacity are in the system. If you say Y here, the kernel will create /proc/pressure/ with the pressure statistics files cpu, memory, and io. These will indicate the share of walltime in which some or all tasks in the system are delayed due to contention of the respective resource. In kernels with cgroup support, cgroups (cgroup2 only) will have cpu.pressure, memory.pressure, and io.pressure files, which aggregate pressure stalls for the grouped tasks only. For more details see Documentation/accounting/psi.rst. Say N if unsure. config PSI_DEFAULT_DISABLED bool "Require boot parameter to enable pressure stall information tracking" default n depends on PSI help If set, pressure stall information tracking will be disabled per default but can be enabled through passing psi=1 on the kernel commandline during boot. This feature adds some code to the task wakeup and sleep paths of the scheduler. The overhead is too low to affect common scheduling-intense workloads in practice (such as webservers, memcache), but it does show up in artificial scheduler stress tests, such as hackbench. If you are paranoid and not sure what the kernel will be used for, say Y. Say N if unsure. endmenu # "CPU/Task time and stats accounting" config CPU_ISOLATION bool "CPU isolation" depends on SMP || COMPILE_TEST default y help Make sure that CPUs running critical tasks are not disturbed by any source of "noise" such as unbound workqueues, timers, kthreads... Unbound jobs get offloaded to housekeeping CPUs. This is driven by the "isolcpus=" boot parameter. Say Y if unsure. source "kernel/rcu/Kconfig" config IKCONFIG tristate "Kernel .config support" help This option enables the complete Linux kernel ".config" file contents to be saved in the kernel. It provides documentation of which kernel options are used in a running kernel or in an on-disk kernel. This information can be extracted from the kernel image file with the script scripts/extract-ikconfig and used as input to rebuild the current kernel or to build another kernel. It can also be extracted from a running kernel by reading /proc/config.gz if enabled (below). config IKCONFIG_PROC bool "Enable access to .config through /proc/config.gz" depends on IKCONFIG && PROC_FS help This option enables access to the kernel configuration file through /proc/config.gz. config IKHEADERS tristate "Enable kernel headers through /sys/kernel/kheaders.tar.xz" depends on SYSFS help This option enables access to the in-kernel headers that are generated during the build process. These can be used to build eBPF tracing programs, or similar programs. If you build the headers as a module, a module called kheaders.ko is built which can be loaded on-demand to get access to headers. config LOG_BUF_SHIFT int "Kernel log buffer size (16 => 64KB, 17 => 128KB)" range 12 25 default 17 depends on PRINTK help Select the minimal kernel log buffer size as a power of 2. The final size is affected by LOG_CPU_MAX_BUF_SHIFT config parameter, see below. Any higher size also might be forced by "log_buf_len" boot parameter. Examples: 17 => 128 KB 16 => 64 KB 15 => 32 KB 14 => 16 KB 13 => 8 KB 12 => 4 KB config LOG_CPU_MAX_BUF_SHIFT int "CPU kernel log buffer size contribution (13 => 8 KB, 17 => 128KB)" depends on SMP range 0 21 default 0 if BASE_SMALL != 0 default 12 depends on PRINTK help This option allows to increase the default ring buffer size 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. The number of possible CPUs is used for this computation ignoring hotplugging making the computation optimal for the worst case scenario while allowing a simple algorithm to be used from bootup. Examples shift values and their meaning: 17 => 128 KB for each CPU 16 => 64 KB for each CPU 15 => 32 KB for each CPU 14 => 16 KB for each CPU 13 => 8 KB for each CPU 12 => 4 KB for each CPU config PRINTK_INDEX bool "Printk indexing debugfs interface" depends on PRINTK && DEBUG_FS help Add support for indexing of all printk formats known at compile time at <debugfs>/printk/index/<module>. This can be used as part of maintaining daemons which monitor /dev/kmsg, as it permits auditing the printk formats present in a kernel, allowing detection of cases where monitored printks are changed or no longer present. There is no additional runtime cost to printk with this enabled. # # Architectures with an unreliable sched_clock() should select this: # config HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK bool config GENERIC_SCHED_CLOCK bool menu "Scheduler features" config UCLAMP_TASK bool "Enable utilization clamping for RT/FAIR tasks" depends on CPU_FREQ_GOV_SCHEDUTIL help This feature enables the scheduler to track the clamped utilization of each CPU based on RUNNABLE tasks scheduled on that CPU. With this option, the user can specify the min and max CPU utilization allowed for RUNNABLE tasks. The max utilization defines the maximum frequency a task should use while the min utilization defines the minimum frequency it should use. Both min and max utilization clamp values are hints to the scheduler, aiming at improving its frequency selection policy, but they do not enforce or grant any specific bandwidth for tasks. If in doubt, say N. config UCLAMP_BUCKETS_COUNT int "Number of supported utilization clamp buckets" range 5 20 default 5 depends on UCLAMP_TASK help 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. endmenu # # For architectures that want to enable the support for NUMA-affine scheduler # balancing logic: # config ARCH_SUPPORTS_NUMA_BALANCING bool # # For architectures that prefer to flush all TLBs after a number of pages # are unmapped instead of sending one IPI per page to flush.

Say N if unsure. config MEMCG bool "Memory controller" select PAGE_COUNTER select EVENTFD help Provides control over the memory footprint of tasks in a cgroup. config MEMCG_KMEM bool depends on MEMCG default y config BLK_CGROUP bool "IO controller" depends on BLOCK default n help Generic block IO controller cgroup interface. This is the common cgroup interface which should be used by various IO controlling policies. Currently, CFQ IO scheduler uses it to recognize task groups and control disk bandwidth allocation (proportional time slice allocation) to such task groups. It is also used by bio throttling logic in block layer to implement upper limit in IO rates on a device. This option only enables generic Block IO controller infrastructure. One needs to also enable actual IO controlling logic/policy. For enabling proportional weight division of disk bandwidth in CFQ, set CONFIG_BFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED=y; for enabling throttling policy, set CONFIG_BLK_DEV_THROTTLING=y. See Documentation/admin-guide/cgroup-v1/blkio-controller.rst for more information. config CGROUP_WRITEBACK bool depends on MEMCG && BLK_CGROUP default y menuconfig CGROUP_SCHED bool "CPU controller" default n help This feature lets CPU scheduler recognize task groups and control CPU bandwidth allocation to such task groups.

Groups with no limit set are considered to be unconstrained and will run with no restriction. See Documentation/scheduler/sched-bwc.rst for more information. config RT_GROUP_SCHED bool "Group scheduling for SCHED_RR/FIFO" depends on CGROUP_SCHED default n help This feature lets you explicitly allocate real CPU bandwidth to task groups. If enabled, it will also make it impossible to schedule realtime tasks for non-root users until you allocate realtime bandwidth for them. See Documentation/scheduler/sched-rt-group.rst for more information. endif #CGROUP_SCHED config SCHED_MM_CID def_bool y depends on SMP && RSEQ config UCLAMP_TASK_GROUP bool "Utilization clamping per group of tasks" depends on CGROUP_SCHED depends on UCLAMP_TASK default n help This feature enables the scheduler to track the clamped utilization of each CPU based on RUNNABLE tasks currently scheduled on that CPU. When this option is enabled, the user can specify a min and max CPU bandwidth which is allowed for each single task in a group. The max bandwidth allows to clamp the maximum frequency a task can use, while the min bandwidth allows to define a minimum frequency a task will always use. When task group based utilization clamping is enabled, an eventually specified task-specific clamp value is constrained by the cgroup specified clamp value. Both minimum and maximum task clamping cannot be bigger than the corresponding clamping defined at task group level. If in doubt, say N. config CGROUP_PIDS bool "PIDs controller" help Provides enforcement of process number limits in the scope of a cgroup. Any attempt to fork more processes than is allowed in the cgroup will fail. PIDs are fundamentally a global resource because it is fairly trivial to reach PID exhaustion before you reach even a conservative kmemcg limit. As a result, it is possible to grind a system to halt without being limited by other cgroup policies. The PIDs controller is designed to stop this from happening. It should be noted that organisational operations (such as attaching to a cgroup hierarchy) will *not* be blocked by the PIDs controller, since the PIDs limit only affects a process's ability to fork, not to attach to a cgroup. config CGROUP_RDMA bool "RDMA controller" help Provides enforcement of RDMA resources defined by IB stack. It is fairly easy for consumers to exhaust RDMA resources, which can result into resource unavailability to other consumers. RDMA controller is designed to stop this from happening. Attaching processes with active RDMA resources to the cgroup hierarchy is allowed even if can cross the hierarchy's limit. config CGROUP_FREEZER bool "Freezer controller" help Provides a way to freeze and unfreeze all tasks in a cgroup. This option affects the ORIGINAL cgroup interface. The cgroup2 memory controller includes important in-kernel memory consumers per default. If you're using cgroup2, say N. config CGROUP_HUGETLB bool "HugeTLB controller" depends on HUGETLB_PAGE select PAGE_COUNTER default n help Provides a cgroup controller for HugeTLB pages. When you enable this, you can put a per cgroup limit on HugeTLB usage. The limit is enforced during page fault. Since HugeTLB doesn't support page reclaim, enforcing the limit at page fault time implies that, the application will get SIGBUS signal if it tries to access HugeTLB pages beyond its limit. This requires the application to know beforehand how much HugeTLB pages it would require for its use. The control group is tracked in the third page lru pointer. This means that we cannot use the controller with huge page less than 3 pages. config CPUSETS bool "Cpuset controller" depends on SMP help This option will let you create and manage CPUSETs which allow dynamically partitioning a system into sets of CPUs and Memory Nodes and assigning tasks to run only within those sets. This is primarily useful on large SMP or NUMA systems. Say N if unsure. config PROC_PID_CPUSET bool "Include legacy /proc/<pid>/cpuset file" depends on CPUSETS default y config CGROUP_DEVICE bool "Device controller" help Provides a cgroup controller implementing whitelists for devices which a process in the cgroup can mknod or open. config CGROUP_CPUACCT bool "Simple CPU accounting controller" help Provides a simple controller for monitoring the total CPU consumed by the tasks in a cgroup. config CGROUP_PERF bool "Perf controller" depends on PERF_EVENTS help This option extends the perf per-cpu mode to restrict monitoring to threads which belong to the cgroup specified and run on the designated cpu. Or this can be used to have cgroup ID in samples so that it can monitor performance events among cgroups. Say N if unsure. config CGROUP_BPF bool "Support for eBPF programs attached to cgroups" depends on BPF_SYSCALL select SOCK_CGROUP_DATA help Allow attaching eBPF programs to a cgroup using the bpf(2) syscall command BPF_PROG_ATTACH. In which context these programs are accessed depends on the type of attachment. For instance, programs that are attached using BPF_CGROUP_INET_INGRESS will be executed on the ingress path of inet sockets. config CGROUP_MISC bool "Misc resource controller" default n help Provides a controller for miscellaneous resources on a host. Miscellaneous scalar resources are the resources on the host system which cannot be abstracted like the other cgroups. This controller tracks and limits the miscellaneous resources used by a process attached to a cgroup hierarchy. For more information, please check misc cgroup section in /Documentation/admin-guide/cgroup-v2.rst. config CGROUP_DEBUG bool "Debug controller" default n depends on DEBUG_KERNEL help This option enables a simple controller that exports debugging information about the cgroups framework. This controller is for control cgroup debugging only. Its interfaces are not stable. Say N. config SOCK_CGROUP_DATA bool default n endif # CGROUPS menuconfig NAMESPACES bool "Namespaces support" if EXPERT depends on MULTIUSER default !EXPERT help Provides the way to make tasks work with different objects using the same id.

The time will keep going with the same pace. config IPC_NS bool "IPC namespace" depends on (SYSVIPC || POSIX_MQUEUE) default y help In this namespace tasks work with IPC ids which correspond to different IPC objects in different namespaces. config USER_NS bool "User namespace" default n help This allows containers, i.e. vservers, to use user namespaces to provide different user info for different servers. When user namespaces are enabled in the kernel it is recommended that the MEMCG option also be enabled and that user-space use the memory control groups to limit the amount of memory a memory unprivileged users can use. If unsure, say N. config PID_NS bool "PID Namespaces" default y help Support process id namespaces. This allows having multiple processes with the same pid as long as they are in different pid namespaces. This is a building block of containers. config NET_NS bool "Network namespace" depends on NET default y help Allow user space to create what appear to be multiple instances of the network stack. endif # NAMESPACES config CHECKPOINT_RESTORE bool "Checkpoint/restore support" depends on PROC_FS select PROC_CHILDREN select KCMP default n help Enables additional kernel features in a sake of checkpoint/restore. In particular it adds auxiliary prctl codes to setup process text, data and heap segment sizes, and a few additional /proc filesystem entries. If unsure, say N here. config SCHED_AUTOGROUP bool "Automatic process group scheduling" select CGROUPS select CGROUP_SCHED select FAIR_GROUP_SCHED help This option optimizes the scheduler for common desktop workloads by automatically creating and populating task groups. This separation of workloads isolates aggressive CPU burners (like build jobs) from desktop applications. Task group autogeneration is currently based upon task session. config RELAY bool "Kernel->user space relay support (formerly relayfs)" select IRQ_WORK help This option enables support for relay interface support in certain file systems (such as debugfs). It is designed to provide an efficient mechanism for tools and facilities to relay large amounts of data from kernel space to user space. If unsure, say N. config BLK_DEV_INITRD bool "Initial RAM filesystem and RAM disk (initramfs/initrd) support" help The initial RAM filesystem is a ramfs which is loaded by the boot loader (loadlin or lilo) and that is mounted as root before the normal boot procedure. It is typically used to load modules needed to mount the "real" root file system, etc. See <file:Documentation/admin-guide/initrd.rst> for details. If RAM disk support (BLK_DEV_RAM) is also included, this also enables initial RAM disk (initrd) support and adds 15 Kbytes (more on some other architectures) to the kernel size. If unsure say Y. if BLK_DEV_INITRD source "usr/Kconfig" endif config BOOT_CONFIG bool "Boot config support" select BLK_DEV_INITRD if !BOOT_CONFIG_EMBED help Extra boot config allows system admin to pass a config file as complemental extension of kernel cmdline when booting.

If unsure, say Y. config BOOT_CONFIG_FORCE bool "Force unconditional bootconfig processing" depends on BOOT_CONFIG default y if BOOT_CONFIG_EMBED help With this Kconfig option set, BOOT_CONFIG processing is carried out even when the "bootconfig" kernel-boot parameter is omitted. In fact, with this Kconfig option set, there is no way to make the kernel ignore the BOOT_CONFIG-supplied kernel-boot parameters. If unsure, say N. config BOOT_CONFIG_EMBED bool "Embed bootconfig file in the kernel" depends on BOOT_CONFIG help Embed a bootconfig file given by BOOT_CONFIG_EMBED_FILE in the kernel. Usually, the bootconfig file is loaded with the initrd image. But if the system doesn't support initrd, this option will help you by embedding a bootconfig file while building the kernel. If unsure, say N. config BOOT_CONFIG_EMBED_FILE string "Embedded bootconfig file path" depends on BOOT_CONFIG_EMBED help Specify a bootconfig file which will be embedded to the kernel. This bootconfig will be used if there is no initrd or no other bootconfig in the initrd. config INITRAMFS_PRESERVE_MTIME bool "Preserve cpio archive mtimes in initramfs" default y help Each entry in an initramfs cpio archive carries an mtime value. When enabled, extracted cpio items take this mtime, with directory mtime setting deferred until after creation of any child entries. If unsure, say Y. choice prompt "Compiler optimization level" default CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_PERFORMANCE config CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_PERFORMANCE bool "Optimize for performance (-O2)" help This is the default optimization level for the kernel, building with the "-O2" compiler flag for best performance and most helpful compile-time warnings. config CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE bool "Optimize for size (-Os)" help Choosing this option will pass "-Os" to your compiler resulting in a smaller kernel. endchoice config HAVE_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION bool help This requires that the arch annotates or otherwise protects its external entry points from being discarded. Linker scripts must also merge .text.*, .data.*, and .bss.* correctly into output sections. Care must be taken not to pull in unrelated sections (e.g., '.text.init'). Typically '.' in section names is used to distinguish them from label names / C identifiers. config LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION bool "Dead code and data elimination (EXPERIMENTAL)" depends on HAVE_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION depends on EXPERT depends on $(cc-option,-ffunction-sections -fdata-sections) depends on $(ld-option,--gc-sections) help Enable this if you want to do dead code and data elimination with the linker by compiling with -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections, and linking with --gc-sections. This can reduce on disk and in-memory size of the kernel code and static data, particularly for small configs and on small systems. This has the possibility of introducing silently broken kernel if the required annotations are not present. This option is not well tested yet, so use at your own risk. config LD_ORPHAN_WARN def_bool y depends on ARCH_WANT_LD_ORPHAN_WARN depends on $(ld-option,--orphan-handling=warn) depends on $(ld-option,--orphan-handling=error) config LD_ORPHAN_WARN_LEVEL string depends on LD_ORPHAN_WARN default "error" if WERROR default "warn" config SYSCTL bool config HAVE_UID16 bool config SYSCTL_EXCEPTION_TRACE bool help Enable support for /proc/sys/debug/exception-trace. config SYSCTL_ARCH_UNALIGN_NO_WARN bool help Enable support for /proc/sys/kernel/ignore-unaligned-usertrap Allows arch to define/use @no_unaligned_warning to possibly warn about unaligned access emulation going on under the hood. config SYSCTL_ARCH_UNALIGN_ALLOW bool help Enable support for /proc/sys/kernel/unaligned-trap Allows arches to define/use @unaligned_enabled to runtime toggle the unaligned access emulation. see arch/parisc/kernel/unaligned.c for reference config HAVE_PCSPKR_PLATFORM bool # interpreter that classic socket filters depend on config BPF bool select CRYPTO_LIB_SHA1 menuconfig EXPERT bool "Configure standard kernel features (expert users)" # Unhide debug options, to make the on-by-default options visible select DEBUG_KERNEL help This option allows certain base kernel options and settings to be disabled or tweaked. This is for specialized environments which can tolerate a "non-standard" kernel. Only use this if you really know what you are doing. config UID16 bool "Enable 16-bit UID system calls" if EXPERT depends on HAVE_UID16 && MULTIUSER default y help This enables the legacy 16-bit UID syscall wrappers. config MULTIUSER bool "Multiple users, groups and capabilities support" if EXPERT default y help This option enables support for non-root users, groups and capabilities. If you say N here, all processes will run with UID 0, GID 0, and all possible capabilities. Saying N here also compiles out support for system calls related to UIDs, GIDs, and capabilities, such as setuid, setgid, and capset.

Note that disabling this option is more secure but might break compatibility with some systems. If unsure say Y here. config FHANDLE bool "open by fhandle syscalls" if EXPERT select EXPORTFS default y help If you say Y here, a user level program will be able to map file names to handle and then later use the handle for different file system operations. This is useful in implementing userspace file servers, which now track files using handles instead of names. The handle would remain the same even if file names get renamed. Enables open_by_handle_at(2) and name_to_handle_at(2) syscalls. config POSIX_TIMERS bool "Posix Clocks & timers" if EXPERT default y help This includes native support for POSIX timers to the kernel. Some embedded systems have no use for them and therefore they can be configured out to reduce the size of the kernel image. When this option is disabled, the following syscalls won't be available: timer_create, timer_gettime: timer_getoverrun, timer_settime, timer_delete, clock_adjtime, getitimer, setitimer, alarm. Furthermore, the clock_settime, clock_gettime, clock_getres and clock_nanosleep syscalls will be limited to CLOCK_REALTIME, CLOCK_MONOTONIC and CLOCK_BOOTTIME only. If unsure say y. config PRINTK default y bool "Enable support for printk" if EXPERT select IRQ_WORK help This option enables normal printk support. Removing it eliminates most of the message strings from the kernel image and makes the kernel more or less silent. As this makes it very difficult to diagnose system problems, saying N here is strongly discouraged. config BUG bool "BUG() support" if EXPERT default y help Disabling this option eliminates support for BUG and WARN, reducing the size of your kernel image and potentially quietly ignoring numerous fatal conditions. You should only consider disabling this option for embedded systems with no facilities for reporting errors. Just say Y. config ELF_CORE depends on COREDUMP default y bool "Enable ELF core dumps" if EXPERT help Enable support for generating core dumps. Disabling saves about 4k. config PCSPKR_PLATFORM bool "Enable PC-Speaker support" if EXPERT depends on HAVE_PCSPKR_PLATFORM select I8253_LOCK default y help This option allows to disable the internal PC-Speaker support, saving some memory. config BASE_FULL default y bool "Enable full-sized data structures for core" if EXPERT help Disabling this option reduces the size of miscellaneous core kernel data structures. This saves memory on small machines, but may reduce performance. config FUTEX bool "Enable futex support" if EXPERT depends on !(SPARC32 && SMP) default y imply RT_MUTEXES help Disabling this option will cause the kernel to be built without support for "fast userspace mutexes". The resulting kernel may not run glibc-based applications correctly. config FUTEX_PI bool depends on FUTEX && RT_MUTEXES default y config EPOLL bool "Enable eventpoll support" if EXPERT default y help Disabling this option will cause the kernel to be built without support for epoll family of system calls. config SIGNALFD bool "Enable signalfd() system call" if EXPERT default y help Enable the signalfd() system call that allows to receive signals on a file descriptor. If unsure, say Y. config TIMERFD bool "Enable timerfd() system call" if EXPERT default y help Enable the timerfd() system call that allows to receive timer events on a file descriptor. If unsure, say Y. config EVENTFD bool "Enable eventfd() system call" if EXPERT default y help Enable the eventfd() system call that allows to receive both kernel notification (ie. KAIO) or userspace notifications. If unsure, say Y. config SHMEM bool "Use full shmem filesystem" if EXPERT default y depends on MMU help The shmem is an internal filesystem used to manage shared memory. It is backed by swap and manages resource limits. It is also exported to userspace as tmpfs if TMPFS is enabled. Disabling this option replaces shmem and tmpfs with the much simpler ramfs code, which may be appropriate on small systems without swap. config AIO bool "Enable AIO support" if EXPERT default y help This option enables POSIX asynchronous I/O which may by used by some high performance threaded applications. Disabling this option saves about 7k. config IO_URING bool "Enable IO uring support" if EXPERT select IO_WQ default y help This option enables support for the io_uring interface, enabling applications to submit and complete IO through submission and completion rings that are shared between the kernel and application. config ADVISE_SYSCALLS bool "Enable madvise/fadvise syscalls" if EXPERT default y help This option enables the madvise and fadvise syscalls, used by applications to advise the kernel about their future memory or file usage, improving performance. If building an embedded system where no applications use these syscalls, you can disable this option to save space. config MEMBARRIER bool "Enable membarrier() system call" if EXPERT default y help Enable the membarrier() system call that allows issuing memory barriers across all running threads, which can be used to distribute the cost of user-space memory barriers asymmetrically by transforming pairs of memory barriers into pairs consisting of membarrier() and a compiler barrier. If unsure, say Y. config KCMP bool "Enable kcmp() system call" if EXPERT help Enable the kernel resource comparison system call. It provides user-space with the ability to compare two processes to see if they share a common resource, such as a file descriptor or even virtual memory space. If unsure, say N. config RSEQ bool "Enable rseq() system call" if EXPERT default y depends on HAVE_RSEQ select MEMBARRIER help Enable the restartable sequences system call. It provides a user-space cache for the current CPU number value, which speeds up getting the current CPU number from user-space, as well as an ABI to speed up user-space operations on per-CPU data. If unsure, say Y. config DEBUG_RSEQ default n bool "Enable debugging of rseq() system call" if EXPERT depends on RSEQ && DEBUG_KERNEL help Enable extra debugging checks for the rseq system call. If unsure, say N. config CACHESTAT_SYSCALL bool "Enable cachestat() system call" if EXPERT default y help Enable the cachestat system call, which queries the page cache statistics of a file (number of cached pages, dirty pages, pages marked for writeback, (recently) evicted pages). If unsure say Y here. config PC104 bool "PC/104 support" if EXPERT help Expose PC/104 form factor device drivers and options available for selection and configuration. Enable this option if your target machine has a PC/104 bus. config KALLSYMS bool "Load all symbols for debugging/ksymoops" if EXPERT default y help Say Y here to let the kernel print out symbolic crash information and symbolic stack backtraces. This increases the size of the kernel somewhat, as all symbols have to be loaded into the kernel image. config KALLSYMS_SELFTEST bool "Test the basic functions and performance of kallsyms" depends on KALLSYMS default n help Test the basic functions and performance of some interfaces, such as kallsyms_lookup_name. It also calculates the compression rate of the kallsyms compression algorithm for the current symbol set. Start self-test automatically after system startup. Suggest executing "dmesg | grep kallsyms_selftest" to collect test results. "finish" is displayed in the last line, indicating that the test is complete. config KALLSYMS_ALL bool "Include all symbols in kallsyms" depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && KALLSYMS help Normally kallsyms only contains the symbols of functions for nicer OOPS messages and backtraces (i.e., symbols from the text and inittext sections). This is sufficient for most cases. And only if you want to enable kernel live patching, or other less common use cases (e.g., when a debugger is used) all symbols are required (i.e., names of variables from the data sections, etc). This option makes sure that all symbols are loaded into the kernel image (i.e., symbols from all sections) in cost of increased kernel size (depending on the kernel configuration, it may be 300KiB or something like this). Say N unless you really need all symbols, or kernel live patching. config KALLSYMS_ABSOLUTE_PERCPU bool depends on KALLSYMS default X86_64 && SMP # end of the "standard kernel features (expert users)" menu config ARCH_HAS_MEMBARRIER_CALLBACKS bool config ARCH_HAS_MEMBARRIER_SYNC_CORE bool config HAVE_PERF_EVENTS bool help See tools/perf/design.txt for details. config GUEST_PERF_EVENTS bool depends on HAVE_PERF_EVENTS config PERF_USE_VMALLOC bool help See tools/perf/design.txt for details menu "Kernel Performance Events And Counters" config PERF_EVENTS bool "Kernel performance events and counters" default y if PROFILING depends on HAVE_PERF_EVENTS select IRQ_WORK help Enable kernel support for various performance events provided by software and hardware. Software events are supported either built-in or via the use of generic tracepoints. 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 these software and hardware event capabilities, available via a system call and used by the "perf" utility in tools/perf/. It provides per task and per CPU counters, and it provides event capabilities on top of those.
