config PRINTK_TIME
bool "Show timing information on printks"
depends on PRINTK
help
Selecting this option causes timing information to be
included in printk output. This allows you to measure
the interval between kernel operations, including bootup
operations. This is useful for identifying long delays
in kernel startup.
config ENABLE_MUST_CHECK
bool "Enable __must_check logic"
default y
help
Enable the __must_check logic in the kernel build. Disable this to
suppress the "warning: ignoring return value of 'foo', declared with
attribute warn_unused_result" messages.
config MAGIC_SYSRQ
bool "Magic SysRq key"
depends on !UML
help
If you say Y here, you will have some control over the system even
if the system crashes for example during kernel debugging (e.g., you
will be able to flush the buffer cache to disk, reboot the system
immediately or dump some status information). This is accomplished
by pressing various keys while holding SysRq (Alt+PrintScreen). It
also works on a serial console (on PC hardware at least), if you
send a BREAK and then within 5 seconds a command keypress. The
keys are documented in <file:Documentation/sysrq.txt>. Don't say Y
unless you really know what this hack does.
config UNUSED_SYMBOLS
bool "Enable unused/obsolete exported symbols"
default y if X86
help
Unused but exported symbols make the kernel needlessly bigger. For
that reason most of these unused exports will soon be removed. This
option is provided temporarily to provide a transition period in case
some external kernel module needs one of these symbols anyway. If you
encounter such a case in your module, consider if you are actually
using the right API. (rationale: since nobody in the kernel is using
this in a module, there is a pretty good chance it's actually the
wrong interface to use). If you really need the symbol, please send a
mail to the linux kernel mailing list mentioning the symbol and why
you really need it, and what the merge plan to the mainline kernel for
your module is.
config DEBUG_FS
bool "Debug Filesystem"
depends on SYSFS
help
debugfs is a virtual file system that kernel developers use to put
debugging files into. Enable this option to be able to read and
write to these files.
If unsure, say N.
config HEADERS_CHECK
bool "Run 'make headers_check' when building vmlinux"
depends on !UML
help
This option will extract the user-visible kernel headers whenever
building the kernel, and will run basic sanity checks on them to
ensure that exported files do not attempt to include files which
were not exported, etc.
If you're making modifications to header files which are
relevant for userspace, say 'Y', and check the headers
exported to $(INSTALL_HDR_PATH) (usually 'usr/include' in
your build tree), to make sure they're suitable.
config DEBUG_KERNEL
bool "Kernel debugging"
help
Say Y here if you are developing drivers or trying to debug and
identify kernel problems.
config DEBUG_SHIRQ
bool "Debug shared IRQ handlers"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && GENERIC_HARDIRQS
help
Enable this to generate a spurious interrupt as soon as a shared
interrupt handler is registered, and just before one is deregistered.
Drivers ought to be able to handle interrupts coming in at those
points; some don't and need to be caught.
config DETECT_SOFTLOCKUP
bool "Detect Soft Lockups"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && !S390
default y
help
Say Y here to enable the kernel to detect "soft lockups",
which are bugs that cause the kernel to loop in kernel
mode for more than 10 seconds, without giving other tasks a
chance to run.
When a soft-lockup is detected, the kernel will print the
current stack trace (which you should report), but the
system will stay locked up. This feature has negligible
overhead.
(Note that "hard lockups" are separate type of bugs that
can be detected via the NMI-watchdog, on platforms that
support it.)
config SCHEDSTATS
bool "Collect scheduler statistics"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && PROC_FS
help
If you say Y here, additional code will be inserted into the
scheduler and related routines to collect statistics about
scheduler behavior and provide them in /proc/schedstat. These
stats may be useful for both tuning and debugging the scheduler
If you aren't debugging the scheduler or trying to tune a specific
application, you can say N to avoid the very slight overhead
this adds.
config TIMER_STATS
bool "Collect kernel timers statistics"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && PROC_FS
help
If you say Y here, additional code will be inserted into the
timer routines to collect statistics about kernel timers being
reprogrammed. The statistics can be read from /proc/timer_stats.
The statistics collection is started by writing 1 to /proc/timer_stats,
writing 0 stops it. This feature is useful to collect information
about timer usage patterns in kernel and userspace.
config DEBUG_SLAB
bool "Debug slab memory allocations"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && SLAB
help
Say Y here to have the kernel do limited verification on memory
allocation as well as poisoning memory on free to catch use of freed
memory. This can make kmalloc/kfree-intensive workloads much slower.
config DEBUG_SLAB_LEAK
bool "Memory leak debugging"
depends on DEBUG_SLAB
config DEBUG_PREEMPT
bool "Debug preemptible kernel"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && PREEMPT && TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT
default y
help
If you say Y here then the kernel will use a debug variant of the
commonly used smp_processor_id() function and will print warnings
if kernel code uses it in a preemption-unsafe way. Also, the kernel
will detect preemption count underflows.
config DEBUG_RT_MUTEXES
bool "RT Mutex debugging, deadlock detection"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && RT_MUTEXES
help
This allows rt mutex semantics violations and rt mutex related
deadlocks (lockups) to be detected and reported automatically.
config DEBUG_PI_LIST
bool
default y
depends on DEBUG_RT_MUTEXES
config RT_MUTEX_TESTER
bool "Built-in scriptable tester for rt-mutexes"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && RT_MUTEXES
help
This option enables a rt-mutex tester.
config DEBUG_SPINLOCK
bool "Spinlock and rw-lock debugging: basic checks"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
help
Say Y here and build SMP to catch missing spinlock initialization
and certain other kinds of spinlock errors commonly made. This is
best used in conjunction with the NMI watchdog so that spinlock
deadlocks are also debuggable.
config DEBUG_MUTEXES
bool "Mutex debugging: basic checks"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
help
This feature allows mutex semantics violations to be detected and
reported.
config DEBUG_SEMAPHORE
bool "Semaphore debugging"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
depends on ALPHA || FRV
default n
help
If you say Y here then semaphore processing will issue lots of
verbose debugging messages. If you suspect a semaphore problem or a
kernel hacker asks for this option then say Y. Otherwise say N.
config DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC
bool "Lock debugging: detect incorrect freeing of live locks"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT && STACKTRACE_SUPPORT && LOCKDEP_SUPPORT
select DEBUG_SPINLOCK
select DEBUG_MUTEXES
select LOCKDEP
help
This feature will check whether any held lock (spinlock, rwlock,
mutex or rwsem) is incorrectly freed by the kernel, via any of the
memory-freeing routines (kfree(), kmem_cache_free(), free_pages(),
vfree(), etc.), whether a live lock is incorrectly reinitialized via
spin_lock_init()/mutex_init()/etc., or whether there is any lock
held during task exit.
config PROVE_LOCKING
bool "Lock debugging: prove locking correctness"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT && STACKTRACE_SUPPORT && LOCKDEP_SUPPORT
select LOCKDEP
select DEBUG_SPINLOCK
select DEBUG_MUTEXES
select DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC
default n
help
This feature enables the kernel to prove that all locking
that occurs in the kernel runtime is mathematically
correct: that under no circumstance could an arbitrary (and
not yet triggered) combination of observed locking
sequences (on an arbitrary number of CPUs, running an
arbitrary number of tasks and interrupt contexts) cause a
deadlock.
In short, this feature enables the kernel to report locking
related deadlocks before they actually occur.
The proof does not depend on how hard and complex a
deadlock scenario would be to trigger: how many
participant CPUs, tasks and irq-contexts would be needed
for it to trigger. The proof also does not depend on
timing: if a race and a resulting deadlock is possible
theoretically (no matter how unlikely the race scenario
is), it will be proven so and will immediately be
reported by the kernel (once the event is observed that
makes the deadlock theoretically possible).
If a deadlock is impossible (i.e. the locking rules, as
observed by the kernel, are mathematically correct), the
kernel reports nothing.
NOTE: this feature can also be enabled for rwlocks, mutexes
and rwsems - in which case all dependencies between these
different locking variants are observed and mapped too, and
the proof of observed correctness is also maintained for an
arbitrary combination of these separate locking variants.
For more details, see Documentation/lockdep-design.txt.
config LOCKDEP
bool
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT && STACKTRACE_SUPPORT && LOCKDEP_SUPPORT
select STACKTRACE
select FRAME_POINTER if !X86 && !MIPS
select KALLSYMS
select KALLSYMS_ALL
config DEBUG_LOCKDEP
bool "Lock dependency engine debugging"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && LOCKDEP
help
If you say Y here, the lock dependency engine will do
additional runtime checks to debug itself, at the price
of more runtime overhead.
config TRACE_IRQFLAGS
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
bool
default y
depends on TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT
depends on PROVE_LOCKING
config DEBUG_SPINLOCK_SLEEP
bool "Spinlock debugging: sleep-inside-spinlock checking"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
help
If you say Y here, various routines which may sleep will become very
noisy if they are called with a spinlock held.
config DEBUG_LOCKING_API_SELFTESTS
bool "Locking API boot-time self-tests"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
help
Say Y here if you want the kernel to run a short self-test during
bootup. The self-test checks whether common types of locking bugs
are detected by debugging mechanisms or not. (if you disable
lock debugging then those bugs wont be detected of course.)
The following locking APIs are covered: spinlocks, rwlocks,
mutexes and rwsems.
config STACKTRACE
bool
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
depends on STACKTRACE_SUPPORT
config DEBUG_KOBJECT
bool "kobject debugging"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
help
If you say Y here, some extra kobject debugging messages will be sent
to the syslog.
config DEBUG_HIGHMEM
bool "Highmem debugging"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && HIGHMEM
help
This options enables addition error checking for high memory systems.
Disable for production systems.
config DEBUG_BUGVERBOSE
bool "Verbose BUG() reporting (adds 70K)" if DEBUG_KERNEL && EMBEDDED
depends on BUG
depends on ARM || ARM26 || AVR32 || M32R || M68K || SPARC32 || SPARC64 || FRV || SUPERH || GENERIC_BUG || BFIN
default !EMBEDDED
help
Say Y here to make BUG() panics output the file name and line number
of the BUG call as well as the EIP and oops trace. This aids
debugging but costs about 70-100K of memory.
config DEBUG_INFO
bool "Compile the kernel with debug info"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
help
If you say Y here the resulting kernel image will include
debugging info resulting in a larger kernel image.
This adds debug symbols to the kernel and modules (gcc -g), and
is needed if you intend to use kernel crashdump or binary object
tools like crash, kgdb, LKCD, gdb, etc on the kernel.
Say Y here only if you plan to debug the kernel.
If unsure, say N.
config DEBUG_VM
bool "Debug VM"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
help
Enable this to turn on extended checks in the virtual-memory system
that may impact performance.
If unsure, say N.
config DEBUG_LIST
bool "Debug linked list manipulation"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
help
Enable this to turn on extended checks in the linked-list
walking routines.
If unsure, say N.
config FRAME_POINTER
bool "Compile the kernel with frame pointers"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && (X86 || CRIS || M68K || M68KNOMMU || FRV || UML || S390 || AVR32 || SUPERH || BFIN)
default y if DEBUG_INFO && UML
help
If you say Y here the resulting kernel image will be slightly larger
and slower, but it might give very useful debugging information on
some architectures or if you use external debuggers.
If you don't debug the kernel, you can say N.
config FORCED_INLINING
bool "Force gcc to inline functions marked 'inline'"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
default y
help
This option determines if the kernel forces gcc to inline the functions
developers have marked 'inline'. Doing so takes away freedom from gcc to
do what it thinks is best, which is desirable for the gcc 3.x series of
compilers. The gcc 4.x series have a rewritten inlining algorithm and
disabling this option will generate a smaller kernel there. Hopefully
this algorithm is so good that allowing gcc4 to make the decision can
become the default in the future, until then this option is there to
test gcc for this.
config RCU_TORTURE_TEST
tristate "torture tests for RCU"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
default n
help
This option provides a kernel module that runs torture tests
on the RCU infrastructure. The kernel module may be built
after the fact on the running kernel to be tested, if desired.
Say Y here if you want RCU torture tests to start automatically
at boot time (you probably don't).
Say M if you want the RCU torture tests to build as a module.
Say N if you are unsure.
config LKDTM
tristate "Linux Kernel Dump Test Tool Module"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
depends on KPROBES
default n
help
This module enables testing of the different dumping mechanisms by
inducing system failures at predefined crash points.
If you don't need it: say N
Choose M here to compile this code as a module. The module will be
called lkdtm.
Documentation on how to use the module can be found in
drivers/misc/lkdtm.c
config FAULT_INJECTION
