config PRINTK_TIME

5
        help
6
          Selecting this option causes timing information to be
7
          included in printk output.  This allows you to measure
8
          the interval between kernel operations, including bootup
9
          operations.  This is useful for identifying long delays
10
          in kernel startup.

        help
32
          If you say Y here, you will have some control over the system even
33
          if the system crashes for example during kernel debugging (e.g., you
34
          will be able to flush the buffer cache to disk, reboot the system
35
          immediately or dump some status information). This is accomplished
36
          by pressing various keys while holding SysRq (Alt+PrintScreen). It
37
          also works on a serial console (on PC hardware at least), if you
38
          send a BREAK and then within 5 seconds a command keypress. The
39
          keys are documented in . Don't say Y
40
          unless you really know what this hack does.

        help
46
          Unused but exported symbols make the kernel needlessly bigger.  For
47
          that reason most of these unused exports will soon be removed.  This
48
          option is provided temporarily to provide a transition period in case
49
          some external kernel module needs one of these symbols anyway. If you
50
          encounter such a case in your module, consider if you are actually
51
          using the right API.  (rationale: since nobody in the kernel is using
52
          this in a module, there is a pretty good chance it's actually the
53
          wrong interface to use).  If you really need the symbol, please send a
54
          mail to the linux kernel mailing list mentioning the symbol and why
55
          you really need it, and what the merge plan to the mainline kernel for
56
          your module is.

72
          This option will extract the user-visible kernel headers whenever
73
          building the kernel, and will run basic sanity checks on them to
74
          ensure that exported files do not attempt to include files which
75
          were not exported, etc.
76
 
77
          If you're making modifications to header files which are
78
          relevant for userspace, say 'Y', and check the headers
79
          exported to $(INSTALL_HDR_PATH) (usually 'usr/include' in
80
          your build tree), to make sure they're suitable.

          Enable this to generate a spurious interrupt as soon as a shared
93
          interrupt handler is registered, and just before one is deregistered.
94
          Drivers ought to be able to handle interrupts coming in at those
95
          points; some don't and need to be caught.

100
        default y
101
        help
102
          Say Y here to enable the kernel to detect "soft lockups",
103
          which are bugs that cause the kernel to loop in kernel
104
          mode for more than 10 seconds, without giving other tasks a
105
          chance to run.
106
 
107
          When a soft-lockup is detected, the kernel will print the
108
          current stack trace (which you should report), but the
109
          system will stay locked up. This feature has negligible
110
          overhead.
111
 
112
          (Note that "hard lockups" are separate type of bugs that
113
           can be detected via the NMI-watchdog, on platforms that
114
           support it.)

121
          If you say Y here, the /proc/sched_debug file will be provided
122
          that can help debug the scheduler. The runtime overhead of this
123
          option is minimal.

        help
129
          If you say Y here, additional code will be inserted into the
130
          scheduler and related routines to collect statistics about
131
          scheduler behavior and provide them in /proc/schedstat.  These
132
          stats may be useful for both tuning and debugging the scheduler
133
          If you aren't debugging the scheduler or trying to tune a specific
134
          application, you can say N to avoid the very slight overhead
135
          this adds.

141
          If you say Y here, additional code will be inserted into the
142
          timer routines to collect statistics about kernel timers being
143
          reprogrammed. The statistics can be read from /proc/timer_stats.
144
          The statistics collection is started by writing 1 to /proc/timer_stats,
145
          writing 0 stops it. This feature is useful to collect information
146
          about timer usage patterns in kernel and userspace. This feature
147
          is lightweight if enabled in the kernel config but not activated
148
          (it defaults to deactivated on bootup and will only be activated
149
          if some application like powertop activates it explicitly).

156

          Boot with debugging on by default. SLUB boots by default with
169
          the runtime debug capabilities switched off. Enabling this is
170
          equivalent to specifying the "slub_debug" parameter on boot.
171
          There is no support for more fine grained debug control like
172
          possible with slub_debug=xxx. SLUB debugging may be switched
173
          off in a kernel built with CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON by specifying

181
          If you say Y here then the kernel will use a debug variant of the
182
          commonly used smp_processor_id() function and will print warnings
183
          if kernel code uses it in a preemption-unsafe way. Also, the kernel
184
          will detect preemption count underflows.

240
         vfree(), etc.), whether a live lock is incorrectly reinitialized via

        default n
252
        help
253
         This feature enables the kernel to prove that all locking
254
         that occurs in the kernel runtime is mathematically
255
         correct: that under no circumstance could an arbitrary (and
256
         not yet triggered) combination of observed locking
257
         sequences (on an arbitrary number of CPUs, running an
258
         arbitrary number of tasks and interrupt contexts) cause a
259
         deadlock.
260
 
261
         In short, this feature enables the kernel to report locking
262
         related deadlocks before they actually occur.
263
 
264
         The proof does not depend on how hard and complex a
265
         deadlock scenario would be to trigger: how many
266
         participant CPUs, tasks and irq-contexts would be needed
267
         for it to trigger. The proof also does not depend on
268
         timing: if a race and a resulting deadlock is possible
269
         theoretically (no matter how unlikely the race scenario
270
         is), it will be proven so and will immediately be
271
         reported by the kernel (once the event is observed that
272
         makes the deadlock theoretically possible).
273
 
274
         If a deadlock is impossible (i.e. the locking rules, as
275
         observed by the kernel, are mathematically correct), the
276
         kernel reports nothing.
277
 
278
         NOTE: this feature can also be enabled for rwlocks, mutexes
279
         and rwsems - in which case all dependencies between these
280
         different locking variants are observed and mapped too, and
281
         the proof of observed correctness is also maintained for an
282
         arbitrary combination of these separate locking variants.

          If you say Y here the resulting kernel image will be slightly larger

        help
425
          This option determines if the kernel forces gcc to inline the functions
426
          developers have marked 'inline'. Doing so takes away freedom from gcc to
427
          do what it thinks is best, which is desirable for the gcc 3.x series of
428
          compilers. The gcc 4.x series have a rewritten inlining algorithm and
429
          disabling this option will generate a smaller kernel there. Hopefully
430
          this algorithm is so good that allowing gcc4 to make the decision can
431
          become the default in the future, until then this option is there to
432
          test gcc for this.

        help
438
          This build option allows you to read kernel boot messages
439
          by inserting a short delay after each one.  The delay is
440
          specified in milliseconds on the kernel command line,
441
          using "boot_delay=N".
442
 
443
          It is likely that you would also need to use "lpj=M" to preset
444
          the "loops per jiffie" value.
445
          See a previous boot log for the "lpj" value to use for your
446
          system, and then set "lpj=M" before setting "boot_delay=N".
447
          NOTE:  Using this option may adversely affect SMP systems.
448
          I.e., processors other than the first one may not boot up.
449
          BOOT_PRINTK_DELAY also may cause DETECT_SOFTLOCKUP to detect
450
          what it believes to be lockup conditions.
