The help text for this config is duplicated across the x86, parisc, and s390 Kconfig.debug files. Arnd Bergman noted that the help text was slightly misleading and should be fixed to state that enabling this option isn't a problem when using pre 4.4 gcc. To simplify the rewording, consolidate the text into lib/Kconfig.debug and modify it there to be more explicit about when you should say N to this config. Also, make the text a bit more generic by stating that this option enables compile time checks so we can cover architectures which emit warnings vs. ones which emit errors. The details of how an architecture decided to implement the checks isn't as important as the concept of compile time checking of copy_from_user() calls. While we're doing this, remove all the copy_from_user_overflow() code that's duplicated many times and place it into lib/ so that any architecture supporting this option can get the function for free.

help
|
|
This kernel feature is useful for number crunching applications
|
|
that may need to compute untrusted bytecode during their
|
|
execution. By using pipes or other transports made available to
|
|
the process as file descriptors supporting the read/write
|
|
syscalls, it's possible to isolate those applications in
|
|
their own address space using seccomp. Once seccomp is
|
|
enabled via /proc/<pid>/seccomp, it cannot be disabled
|
|
and the task is only allowed to execute a few safe syscalls
|
|
defined by each seccomp mode.
|
|
|
|
If unsure, say Y.

help
|

Select this option, if you want to use PFAULT pseudo page fault
|
|
handling under VM. If running native or in LPAR, this option
|
|
has no effect. If your VM does not support PFAULT, PAGEEX
|
|
pseudo page fault handling will be used.
|
|
Note that VM 4.2 supports PFAULT but has a bug in its
|
|
implementation that causes some problems.

Everybody who wants to run Linux under VM != VM4.2 should select

this option.

Select this option, if you want to share the text segment of the

Linux kernel between different VM guests. This reduces memory

Also if a kernel was IPL'ed from a shared segment the kexec system

Select this option, if you want to enable the kernel interface

to reduce the memory size of the system. This is accomplished
|
|
by allocating pages of memory and put them "on hold". This only
|
|
makes sense for a system running under VM where the unused pages
|
|
will be reused by VM for other guest systems. The interface
|
|
allows an external monitor to balance memory of many systems.
