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_WARN_DEPRECATED
        bool "Enable __deprecated logic"
        default y
        help
          Enable the __deprecated logic in the kernel build.
          Disable this to suppress the "warning: 'foo' is deprecated
          (declared at kernel/power/somefile.c:1234)" messages.

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 SCHED_DEBUG
        bool "Collect scheduler debugging info"
        depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && PROC_FS
        default y
        help
          If you say Y here, the /proc/sched_debug file will be provided
          that can help debug the scheduler. The runtime overhead of this
          option is minimal.

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. This feature
          is lightweight if enabled in the kernel config but not activated
          (it defaults to deactivated on bootup and will only be activated
          if some application like powertop activates it explicitly).

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 SLUB_DEBUG_ON
        bool "SLUB debugging on by default"
        depends on SLUB && SLUB_DEBUG
        default n
        help
          Boot with debugging on by default. SLUB boots by default with
          the runtime debug capabilities switched off. Enabling this is
          equivalent to specifying the "slub_debug" parameter on boot.
          There is no support for more fine grained debug control like
          possible with slub_debug=xxx. SLUB debugging may be switched
          off in a kernel built with CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON by specifying
          "slub_debug=-".

config DEBUG_PREEMPT
        bool "Debug preemptible kernel"
        depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && PREEMPT && (TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT || PPC64)
        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 DEBUG_SPINLOCK
        select DEBUG_MUTEXES
        select DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC
        default n
        help
         This feature enables tracking lock contention points

         For more details, see Documentation/lockstat.txt

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 || AVR32 || M32R || M68K || SPARC32 || SPARC64 || FRV || SUPERH || GENERIC_BUG || BLACKFIN
        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 DEBUG_SG
        bool "Debug SG table operations"
        depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
        help
          Enable this to turn on checks on scatter-gather tables. This can
          help find problems with drivers that do not properly initialize
          their sg tables.

          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 || BLACKFIN)
        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 BOOT_PRINTK_DELAY
        bool "Delay each boot printk message by N milliseconds"
        depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && PRINTK && GENERIC_CALIBRATE_DELAY
        help
          This build option allows you to read kernel boot messages
          by inserting a short delay after each one.  The delay is
          specified in milliseconds on the kernel command line,
          using "boot_delay=N".

          It is likely that you would also need to use "lpj=M" to preset
          the "loops per jiffie" value.
          See a previous boot log for the "lpj" value to use for your
          system, and then set "lpj=M" before setting "boot_delay=N".
          NOTE:  Using this option may adversely affect SMP systems.
          I.e., processors other than the first one may not boot up.
          BOOT_PRINTK_DELAY also may cause DETECT_SOFTLOCKUP to detect
          what it believes to be lockup conditions.

config RCU_TORTURE_TEST
        tristate "torture tests for RCU"
        depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
        depends on m
        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 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
