6 bool "Early printk" if EMBEDDED && DEBUG_KERNEL
9 Write kernel log output directly into the VGA buffer or to a serial
12 This is useful for kernel debugging when your machine crashes very
13 early before the console code is initialized. For normal operation
14 it is not recommended because it looks ugly and doesn't cooperate
15 with klogd/syslogd or the X server. You should normally N here,
16 unless you want to debug such a crash.
18 config DEBUG_STACKOVERFLOW
19 bool "Check for stack overflows"
20 depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
22 This option will cause messages to be printed if free stack space
23 drops below a certain limit.
25 config DEBUG_STACK_USAGE
26 bool "Stack utilization instrumentation"
27 depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
29 Enables the display of the minimum amount of free stack which each
30 task has ever had available in the sysrq-T and sysrq-P debug output.
32 This option will slow down process creation somewhat.
34 comment "Page alloc debug is incompatible with Software Suspend on i386"
35 depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && SOFTWARE_SUSPEND
37 config DEBUG_PAGEALLOC
38 bool "Page alloc debugging"
39 depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && !SOFTWARE_SUSPEND
41 Unmap pages from the kernel linear mapping after free_pages().
42 This results in a large slowdown, but helps to find certain types
43 of memory corruptions.
46 bool "Use 4Kb for kernel stacks instead of 8Kb"
47 depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
49 If you say Y here the kernel will use a 4Kb stacksize for the
50 kernel stack attached to each process/thread. This facilitates
51 running more threads on a system and also reduces the pressure
52 on the VM subsystem for higher order allocations. This option
53 will also use IRQ stacks to compensate for the reduced stackspace.
