Accidental 11 access to this is obviously disastrous, but specific access can 12 be used by people debugging the kernel. 13 14 If this option is switched on, the /dev/mem file only allows 15 userspace access to memory mapped peripherals. 16 17 If in doubt, say Y. 18 19config EARLY_PRINTK 20 def_bool DEBUG_OCD 21 help 22 Write kernel log output directly into the ocd or to a serial port. 23 24 This is useful for kernel debugging when your machine crashes very 25 early before the console code is initialized. For normal operation 26 it is not recommended because it looks ugly and doesn't cooperate 27 with klogd/syslogd or the X server. You should normally N here, 28 unless you want to debug such a crash. 29 30config DEBUG_STACK_USAGE 31 bool "Enable stack utilization instrumentation" 32 depends on DEBUG_KERNEL 33 help 34 Enables the display of the minimum amount of free stack which each 35 task has ever had available in the sysrq-T output. 36 37# These options are only for real kernel hackers who want to get their hands dirty. 38config DEBUG_LL 39 bool "Kernel low-level debugging functions" 40 depends on DEBUG_KERNEL 41 help 42 Say Y here to include definitions of printascii, printch, printhex 43 in the kernel.
