8	  - Re-run Kconfig when the compiler is updated
9	    The 'default' property references the environment variable,
10	    CC_VERSION_TEXT so it is recorded in include/config/auto.conf.cmd.
11	    When the compiler is updated, Kconfig will be invoked.
12
13	  - Ensure full rebuild when the compiler is updated
14	    include/linux/compiler-version.h contains this option in the comment
15	    line so fixdep adds include/config/CC_VERSION_TEXT into the
16	    auto-generated dependency. When the compiler is updated, syncconfig

299	  comparison to gzip. On architectures for which there is a BCJ
300	  filter (i386, x86_64, ARM, IA-64, PowerPC, and SPARC), XZ
301	  will create a few percent smaller kernel than plain LZMA.
302
303	  The speed is about the same as with LZMA: The decompression
304	  speed of XZ is better than that of bzip2 but worse than gzip

333	  decompress around the same speed as LZO, but slower than LZ4. You

1851	  Software events are supported either built-in or via the
1852	  use of generic tracepoints.
1853
1854	  Most modern CPUs support performance events via performance
1855	  counter registers. These registers count the number of certain
1856	  types of hw events: such as instructions executed, cachemisses
1857	  suffered, or branches mis-predicted - without slowing down the
1858	  kernel or applications. These registers can also trigger interrupts
1859	  when a threshold number of events have passed - and can thus be
1860	  used to profile the code that runs on that CPU.

1862	  The Linux Performance Event subsystem provides an abstraction of
1863	  these software and hardware event capabilities, available via a
1864	  system call and used by the "perf" utility in tools/perf/. It
