CONFIG_XIP

This option allows the kernel to operate with its text and read-only sections residing in ROM (or similar read-only memory). Not all platforms support this option so it must be used with care; you must also supply a linker command file when building your image. Enabling this option increases both the code and data footprint of the image.
