14	  OProfile is a profiling system capable of profiling the

24	help
25          Instruction-Based Sampling (IBS) is a new profiling
26          technique that provides rich, precise program performance
27          information. IBS is introduced by AMD Family10h processors
28          (AMD Opteron Quad-Core processor "Barcelona") to overcome
29          the limitations of conventional performance counter
30          sampling.
31
32	  If unsure, say N.

34config OPROFILE_EVENT_MULTIPLEX
35	bool "OProfile multiplexing support (EXPERIMENTAL)"
36	default n
37	depends on OPROFILE && X86
38	help
39	  The number of hardware counters is limited. The multiplexing
40	  feature enables OProfile to gather more events than counters
41	  are provided by the hardware. This is realized by switching
42	  between events at an user specified time interval.

44	  If unsure, say N.

52	depends on HAVE_KPROBES
53	help
54	  Kprobes allows you to trap at almost any kernel address and
55	  execute a callback function.  register_kprobe() establishes
56	  a probepoint and specifies the callback.  Kprobes is useful
57	  for kernel debugging, non-intrusive instrumentation and testing.
58	  If in doubt, say "N".

60config HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS
61	bool
62	help
63	  Some architectures are unable to perform unaligned accesses
64	  without the use of get_unaligned/put_unaligned. Others are
65	  unable to perform such accesses efficiently (e.g. trap on
66	  unaligned access and require fixing it up in the exception
67	  handler.)
68
69	  This symbol should be selected by an architecture if it can
70	  perform unaligned accesses efficiently to allow different
71	  code paths to be selected for these cases. Some network
72	  drivers, for example, could opt to not fix up alignment
73	  problems with received packets if doing so would not help
74	  much.
75
76	  See Documentation/unaligned-memory-access.txt for more
77	  information on the topic of unaligned memory accesses.
