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. 17 18config DEBUG_STACKOVERFLOW 19 bool "Check for stack overflows" 20 depends on DEBUG_KERNEL 21 help 22 This option will cause messages to be printed if free stack space 23 drops below a certain limit. 24 25config 16KSTACKS 26 bool "Use 16Kb for kernel stacks instead of 8Kb" 27 help 28 If you say Y here the kernel will use a 16Kb stacksize for the 29 kernel stack attached to each process/thread. The default is 8K. 30 This increases the resident kernel footprint and will cause less 31 threads to run on the system and also increase the pressure 32 on the VM subsystem for higher order allocations. 33 34endmenu 35
