CONFIG_ALIGNMENT_TRAP:

General informations

The Linux kernel configuration item CONFIG_ALIGNMENT_TRAP has multiple definitions:

found in arch/arm/Kconfig

The configuration item CONFIG_ALIGNMENT_TRAP:

• prompt:
• type: bool
• depends on: (none)
• defined in arch/arm/Kconfig
• found in Linux kernels: 2.5.45–2.5.75, 2.6.0–2.6.39, 3.0–3.19, 4.0–4.20, 5.0–5.19, 6.0–6.12, 6.13-rc+HEAD

ARM processors cannot fetch/store information which is not naturally aligned on the bus, i.e., a 4 byte fetch must start at an address divisible by 4. On 32-bit ARM processors, these non-aligned fetch/store instructions will be emulated in software if you say here, which has a severe performance impact. This is necessary for correct operation of some network protocols. With an IP-only configuration it is safe to say N, otherwise say Y.

Kernel support unaligned access handling by sw found in arch/nds32/Kconfig.cpu

The configuration item CONFIG_ALIGNMENT_TRAP:

• prompt: Kernel support unaligned access handling by sw
• type: bool
• depends on: CONFIG_PROC_FS
• defined in arch/nds32/Kconfig.cpu
• found in Linux kernels: 4.17–4.20, 5.0–5.17, 5.17+HEAD

Andes processors cannot load/store information which is not naturally aligned on the bus, i.e., a 4 byte load must start at an address divisible by 4. On 32-bit Andes processors, these non-aligned load/store instructions will be emulated in software if you say Y here, which has a severe performance impact. With an IP-only configuration it is safe to say N, otherwise say Y.

found in arch/unicore32/Kconfig

The configuration item CONFIG_ALIGNMENT_TRAP:

• prompt:
• type: bool
• depends on: (none)
• defined in arch/unicore32/Kconfig
• found in Linux kernels: 2.6.39, 3.0–3.19, 4.0–4.20, 5.0–5.8

Unicore processors can not fetch/store information which is not naturally aligned on the bus, i.e., a 4 byte fetch must start at an address divisible by 4. On 32-bit Unicore processors, these non-aligned fetch/store instructions will be emulated in software if you say here, which has a severe performance impact. This is necessary for correct operation of some network protocols. With an IP-only configuration it is safe to say N, otherwise say Y.
