+ bool "Make kernel text and rodata read-only"
+ help
+ If this is set, kernel text and rodata will be made read-only. This
+ is to help catch accidental or malicious attempts to change the
+ kernel's executable code. Additionally splits rodata from kernel

+ bool "Align linker sections up to SECTION_SIZE"
+ help
+ If this option is enabled, sections that may potentially be marked as
+ read only or non-executable will be aligned up to the section size of
+ the kernel. This prevents sections from being split into pages and
+ avoids a potential TLB penalty. The downside is an increase in
+ alignment and potentially wasted space. Turn on this option if
+ performance is more important than memory pressure.
