15 whole system, include the kernel, kernel modules, libraries,
16 and applications.

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
ba8b453d 28 (AMD Opteron Quad-Core processor "Barcelona") to overcome

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.

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".

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.
