68b59cd81SMasahiro Yamada	  This is used in unclear ways:
78b59cd81SMasahiro Yamada
88b59cd81SMasahiro Yamada	  - Re-run Kconfig when the compiler is updated
98b59cd81SMasahiro Yamada	    The 'default' property references the environment variable,
108b59cd81SMasahiro Yamada	    CC_VERSION_TEXT so it is recorded in include/config/auto.conf.cmd.
118b59cd81SMasahiro Yamada	    When the compiler is updated, Kconfig will be invoked.
128b59cd81SMasahiro Yamada
13f9c8bc46SBhaskar Chowdhury	  - Ensure full rebuild when the compiler is updated
14ce6ed1c4SMasahiro Yamada	    include/linux/compiler-version.h contains this option in the comment
150e0345b7SAlexey Dobriyan	    line so fixdep adds include/config/CC_VERSION_TEXT into the
16ce6ed1c4SMasahiro Yamada	    auto-generated dependency. When the compiler is updated, syncconfig

1856dd77038dSThadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo	  Software events are supported either built-in or via the

185857c0c15bSIngo Molnar
185957c0c15bSIngo Molnar	  Most modern CPUs support performance events via performance
186057c0c15bSIngo Molnar	  counter registers. These registers count the number of certain
18610793a61dSThomas Gleixner	  types of hw events: such as instructions executed, cachemisses
18620793a61dSThomas Gleixner	  suffered, or branches mis-predicted - without slowing down the
18630793a61dSThomas Gleixner	  kernel or applications. These registers can also trigger interrupts
18640793a61dSThomas Gleixner	  when a threshold number of events have passed - and can thus be
18650793a61dSThomas Gleixner	  used to profile the code that runs on that CPU.
18660793a61dSThomas Gleixner
186757c0c15bSIngo Molnar	  The Linux Performance Event subsystem provides an abstraction of
1868dd77038dSThadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo	  these software and hardware event capabilities, available via a
186957c0c15bSIngo Molnar	  system call and used by the "perf" utility in tools/perf/. It
18700793a61dSThomas Gleixner	  provides per task and per CPU counters, and it provides event
18710793a61dSThomas Gleixner	  capabilities on top of those.
