+ bool "Randomize TEXT_OFFSET at build time"
+ help
+ Say Y here if you want the image load offset (AKA TEXT_OFFSET)
+ of the kernel to be randomized at build-time. When selected,
+ this option will cause TEXT_OFFSET to be randomized upon any
+ build of the kernel, and the offset will be reflected in the
+ text_offset field of the resulting Image. This can be used to
+ fuzz-test bootloaders which respect text_offset.
+
+ This option is intended for bootloader and/or kernel testing
+ only. Bootloaders must make no assumptions regarding the value
+ of TEXT_OFFSET and platforms must not require a specific
+ value.
