+# The instruction set the compiler should use when generating application
+# code. The kernel is always compiled with arm code at present. arm code
+# is the original 32 bit ARM instruction set, thumb code is the 16 bit
+# encoded RISC sub-set. Thumb code is smaller (maybe 70% of the ARM size)
+# but requires more instructions (140% for 70% smaller code) so may be
+# slower.

+# Whether to compile with code to allow interworking between the two
+# instruction sets. This allows thumb code to be executed on a primarily
+# arm system and vice versa. It is strongly recommended that DISTROs not
+# turn this off - the actual cost is very small.
