3config PRINTK_TIME
4	bool "Show timing information on printks"
5	depends on PRINTK
6	help
7	  Selecting this option causes time stamps of the printk()
8	  messages to be added to the output of the syslog() system
9	  call and at the console.
10
11	  The timestamp is always recorded internally, and exported
12	  to /dev/kmsg. This flag just specifies if the timestamp should
13	  be included, not that the timestamp is recorded.
14
15	  The behavior is also controlled by the kernel command line
16	  parameter printk.time=1. See Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.rst

18config CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_DEFAULT
19	int "Default console loglevel (1-15)"
20	range 1 15
21	default "7"
22	help
23	  Default loglevel to determine what will be printed on the console.
24
25	  Setting a default here is equivalent to passing in loglevel=<x> in
26	  the kernel bootargs. loglevel=<x> continues to override whatever
27	  value is specified here as well.
28
29	  Note: This does not affect the log level of un-prefixed printk()
30	  usage in the kernel. That is controlled by the MESSAGE_LOGLEVEL_DEFAULT
31	  option.
32
33config MESSAGE_LOGLEVEL_DEFAULT
34	int "Default message log level (1-7)"
35	range 1 7
36	default "4"
37	help
38	  Default log level for printk statements with no specified priority.
39
40	  This was hard-coded to KERN_WARNING since at least 2.6.10 but folks
41	  that are auditing their logs closely may want to set it to a lower
42	  priority.
43
44	  Note: This does not affect what message level gets printed on the console
45	  by default. To change that, use loglevel=<x> in the kernel bootargs,
46	  or pick a different CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_DEFAULT configuration value.
47
48config BOOT_PRINTK_DELAY
49	bool "Delay each boot printk message by N milliseconds"
50	depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && PRINTK && GENERIC_CALIBRATE_DELAY
51	help
52	  This build option allows you to read kernel boot messages
53	  by inserting a short delay after each one.  The delay is
54	  specified in milliseconds on the kernel command line,
55	  using "boot_delay=N".
56
57	  It is likely that you would also need to use "lpj=M" to preset
58	  the "loops per jiffie" value.
59	  See a previous boot log for the "lpj" value to use for your
60	  system, and then set "lpj=M" before setting "boot_delay=N".
61	  NOTE:  Using this option may adversely affect SMP systems.
62	  I.e., processors other than the first one may not boot up.
63	  BOOT_PRINTK_DELAY also may cause LOCKUP_DETECTOR to detect
64	  what it believes to be lockup conditions.
65
66config DYNAMIC_DEBUG
67	bool "Enable dynamic printk() support"
68	default n
69	depends on PRINTK
70	depends on DEBUG_FS
71	help
72
73	  Compiles debug level messages into the kernel, which would not
74	  otherwise be available at runtime. These messages can then be
75	  enabled/disabled based on various levels of scope - per source file,
76	  function, module, format string, and line number. This mechanism
77	  implicitly compiles in all pr_debug() and dev_dbg() calls, which
78	  enlarges the kernel text size by about 2%.
79
80	  If a source file is compiled with DEBUG flag set, any
81	  pr_debug() calls in it are enabled by default, but can be
82	  disabled at runtime as below.  Note that DEBUG flag is
83	  turned on by many CONFIG_*DEBUG* options.
84
85	  Usage:
86
87	  Dynamic debugging is controlled via the 'dynamic_debug/control' file,
88	  which is contained in the 'debugfs' filesystem. Thus, the debugfs
89	  filesystem must first be mounted before making use of this feature.
90	  We refer the control file as: <debugfs>/dynamic_debug/control. This
91	  file contains a list of the debug statements that can be enabled. The
92	  format for each line of the file is:
93
94		filename:lineno [module]function flags format
95
96	  filename : source file of the debug statement
97	  lineno : line number of the debug statement
98	  module : module that contains the debug statement
99	  function : function that contains the debug statement
100          flags : '=p' means the line is turned 'on' for printing
101          format : the format used for the debug statement
102
103	  From a live system:
104
105		nullarbor:~ # cat <debugfs>/dynamic_debug/control
106		# filename:lineno [module]function flags format
107		fs/aio.c:222 [aio]__put_ioctx =_ "__put_ioctx:\040freeing\040%p\012"
108		fs/aio.c:248 [aio]ioctx_alloc =_ "ENOMEM:\040nr_events\040too\040high\012"
109		fs/aio.c:1770 [aio]sys_io_cancel =_ "calling\040cancel\012"
110
111	  Example usage:
112
113		// enable the message at line 1603 of file svcsock.c
114		nullarbor:~ # echo -n 'file svcsock.c line 1603 +p' >
115						<debugfs>/dynamic_debug/control
116
117		// enable all the messages in file svcsock.c
118		nullarbor:~ # echo -n 'file svcsock.c +p' >
119						<debugfs>/dynamic_debug/control
120
121		// enable all the messages in the NFS server module
122		nullarbor:~ # echo -n 'module nfsd +p' >
123						<debugfs>/dynamic_debug/control
124
125		// enable all 12 messages in the function svc_process()
126		nullarbor:~ # echo -n 'func svc_process +p' >
127						<debugfs>/dynamic_debug/control
128
129		// disable all 12 messages in the function svc_process()

142	help
143          If you say Y here the resulting kernel image will include
144	  debugging info resulting in a larger kernel image.
145	  This adds debug symbols to the kernel and modules (gcc -g), and
146	  is needed if you intend to use kernel crashdump or binary object
147	  tools like crash, kgdb, LKCD, gdb, etc on the kernel.

152config DEBUG_INFO_REDUCED
153	bool "Reduce debugging information"
154	depends on DEBUG_INFO
155	help
156	  If you say Y here gcc is instructed to generate less debugging
157	  information for structure types. This means that tools that
158	  need full debugging information (like kgdb or systemtap) won't
159	  be happy. But if you merely need debugging information to
160	  resolve line numbers there is no loss. Advantage is that
161	  build directory object sizes shrink dramatically over a full
162	  DEBUG_INFO build and compile times are reduced too.
163	  Only works with newer gcc versions.
164
165config DEBUG_INFO_SPLIT
166	bool "Produce split debuginfo in .dwo files"
167	depends on DEBUG_INFO && !FRV
168	help
169	  Generate debug info into separate .dwo files. This significantly
170	  reduces the build directory size for builds with DEBUG_INFO,
171	  because it stores the information only once on disk in .dwo
172	  files instead of multiple times in object files and executables.
173	  In addition the debug information is also compressed.
174
175	  Requires recent gcc (4.7+) and recent gdb/binutils.
176	  Any tool that packages or reads debug information would need
177	  to know about the .dwo files and include them.
178	  Incompatible with older versions of ccache.

180config DEBUG_INFO_DWARF4
181	bool "Generate dwarf4 debuginfo"

183	help
184	  Generate dwarf4 debug info. This requires recent versions
185	  of gcc and gdb. It makes the debug information larger.
186	  But it significantly improves the success of resolving
187	  variables in gdb on optimized code.
188

193	  This creates the required links to GDB helper scripts in the

251	  that reason most of these unused exports will soon be removed.  This
252	  option is provided temporarily to provide a transition period in case
253	  some external kernel module needs one of these symbols anyway. If you
254	  encounter such a case in your module, consider if you are actually
255	  using the right API.  (rationale: since nobody in the kernel is using
256	  this in a module, there is a pretty good chance it's actually the
257	  wrong interface to use).  If you really need the symbol, please send a

306config DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH
307	bool "Enable full Section mismatch analysis"
308	help
309	  The section mismatch analysis checks if there are illegal
310	  references from one section to another section.
311	  During linktime or runtime, some sections are dropped;
312	  any use of code/data previously in these sections would
313	  most likely result in an oops.
314	  In the code, functions and variables are annotated with
315	  __init,, etc. (see the full list in include/linux/init.h),
316	  which results in the code/data being placed in specific sections.
317	  The section mismatch analysis is always performed after a full
318	  kernel build, and enabling this option causes the following
319	  additional steps to occur:
320	  - Add the option -fno-inline-functions-called-once to gcc commands.
321	    When inlining a function annotated with __init in a non-init
322	    function, we would lose the section information and thus
323	    the analysis would not catch the illegal reference.
324	    This option tells gcc to inline less (but it does result in
325	    a larger kernel).
326	  - Run the section mismatch analysis for each module/built-in.o file.
327	    When we run the section mismatch analysis on vmlinux.o, we
328	    lose valuable information about where the mismatch was
329	    introduced.
330	    Running the analysis for each module/built-in.o file
331	    tells where the mismatch happens much closer to the
332	    source. The drawback is that the same mismatch is
333	    reported at least twice.
334	  - Enable verbose reporting from modpost in order to help resolve
335	    the section mismatches that are reported.

1864	depends on PCI && X86
1865	help
1866	  If you want to debug problems which hang or crash the kernel early
1867	  on boot and the crashing machine has a FireWire port, you can use
1868	  this feature to remotely access the memory of the crashed machine
1869	  over FireWire. This employs remote DMA as part of the OHCI1394
1870	  specification which is now the standard for FireWire controllers.
1871
1872	  With remote DMA, you can monitor the printk buffer remotely using
1873	  firescope and access all memory below 4GB using fireproxy from gdb.
1874	  Even controlling a kernel debugger is possible using remote DMA.
1875
1876	  Usage:
1877
1878	  If ohci1394_dma=early is used as boot parameter, it will initialize
1879	  all OHCI1394 controllers which are found in the PCI config space.
1880
1881	  As all changes to the FireWire bus such as enabling and disabling
1882	  devices cause a bus reset and thereby disable remote DMA for all
1883	  devices, be sure to have the cable plugged and FireWire enabled on
1884	  the debugging host before booting the debug target for debugging.
1885
1886	  This code (~1k) is freed after boot. By then, the firewire stack
1887	  in charge of the OHCI-1394 controllers should be used instead.

1901	  accessed by the cpu in a way that could cause data corruption.  For
1902	  example, this enables cow_user_page() to check that the source page is
1903	  not undergoing DMA.
