6config PRINTK_TIME
7	bool "Show timing information on printks"
8	depends on PRINTK
9	help
10	  Selecting this option causes time stamps of the printk()
11	  messages to be added to the output of the syslog() system
12	  call and at the console.
13
14	  The timestamp is always recorded internally, and exported
15	  to /dev/kmsg. This flag just specifies if the timestamp should
16	  be included, not that the timestamp is recorded.
17
18	  The behavior is also controlled by the kernel command line
19	  parameter printk.time=1. See Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.rst
20
21config PRINTK_CALLER
22	bool "Show caller information on printks"
23	depends on PRINTK
24	help
25	  Selecting this option causes printk() to add a caller "thread id" (if
26	  in task context) or a caller "processor id" (if not in task context)
27	  to every message.
28
29	  This option is intended for environments where multiple threads
30	  concurrently call printk() for many times, for it is difficult to
31	  interpret without knowing where these lines (or sometimes individual
32	  line which was divided into multiple lines due to race) came from.
33
34	  Since toggling after boot makes the code racy, currently there is
35	  no option to enable/disable at the kernel command line parameter or
36	  sysfs interface.

38config CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_DEFAULT

41	default "7"
42	help
43	  Default loglevel to determine what will be printed on the console.
44
45	  Setting a default here is equivalent to passing in loglevel=<x> in
46	  the kernel bootargs. loglevel=<x> continues to override whatever
47	  value is specified here as well.
48
49	  Note: This does not affect the log level of un-prefixed printk()
50	  usage in the kernel. That is controlled by the MESSAGE_LOGLEVEL_DEFAULT
51	  option.
52
53config CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_QUIET
54	int "quiet console loglevel (1-15)"
55	range 1 15
56	default "4"
57	help
58	  loglevel to use when "quiet" is passed on the kernel commandline.
59
60	  When "quiet" is passed on the kernel commandline this loglevel
61	  will be used as the loglevel. IOW passing "quiet" will be the
62	  equivalent of passing "loglevel=<CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_QUIET>"
63
64config MESSAGE_LOGLEVEL_DEFAULT
65	int "Default message log level (1-7)"
66	range 1 7
67	default "4"
68	help
69	  Default log level for printk statements with no specified priority.
70
71	  This was hard-coded to KERN_WARNING since at least 2.6.10 but folks
72	  that are auditing their logs closely may want to set it to a lower
73	  priority.
74
75	  Note: This does not affect what message level gets printed on the console
76	  by default. To change that, use loglevel=<x> in the kernel bootargs,
77	  or pick a different CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_DEFAULT configuration value.
78
79config BOOT_PRINTK_DELAY
80	bool "Delay each boot printk message by N milliseconds"
81	depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && PRINTK && GENERIC_CALIBRATE_DELAY
82	help
83	  This build option allows you to read kernel boot messages
84	  by inserting a short delay after each one.  The delay is
85	  specified in milliseconds on the kernel command line,
86	  using "boot_delay=N".
87
88	  It is likely that you would also need to use "lpj=M" to preset
89	  the "loops per jiffie" value.
90	  See a previous boot log for the "lpj" value to use for your
91	  system, and then set "lpj=M" before setting "boot_delay=N".
92	  NOTE:  Using this option may adversely affect SMP systems.
93	  I.e., processors other than the first one may not boot up.
94	  BOOT_PRINTK_DELAY also may cause LOCKUP_DETECTOR to detect
95	  what it believes to be lockup conditions.

104
105	  Compiles debug level messages into the kernel, which would not
106	  otherwise be available at runtime. These messages can then be
107	  enabled/disabled based on various levels of scope - per source file,
108	  function, module, format string, and line number. This mechanism
109	  implicitly compiles in all pr_debug() and dev_dbg() calls, which
110	  enlarges the kernel text size by about 2%.
111
112	  If a source file is compiled with DEBUG flag set, any
113	  pr_debug() calls in it are enabled by default, but can be
114	  disabled at runtime as below.  Note that DEBUG flag is
115	  turned on by many CONFIG_*DEBUG* options.
116
117	  Usage:
118
119	  Dynamic debugging is controlled via the 'dynamic_debug/control' file,
120	  which is contained in the 'debugfs' filesystem or procfs.
121	  Thus, the debugfs or procfs filesystem must first be mounted before
122	  making use of this feature.
123	  We refer the control file as: <debugfs>/dynamic_debug/control. This
124	  file contains a list of the debug statements that can be enabled. The
125	  format for each line of the file is:
126
127		filename:lineno [module]function flags format
128
129	  filename : source file of the debug statement
130	  lineno : line number of the debug statement
131	  module : module that contains the debug statement
132	  function : function that contains the debug statement
133	  flags : '=p' means the line is turned 'on' for printing
134	  format : the format used for the debug statement
135
136	  From a live system:
137
138		nullarbor:~ # cat <debugfs>/dynamic_debug/control
139		# filename:lineno [module]function flags format
140		fs/aio.c:222 [aio]__put_ioctx =_ "__put_ioctx:\040freeing\040%p\012"

142		fs/aio.c:1770 [aio]sys_io_cancel =_ "calling\040cancel\012"
143
144	  Example usage:
145
146		// enable the message at line 1603 of file svcsock.c
147		nullarbor:~ # echo -n 'file svcsock.c line 1603 +p' >
148						<debugfs>/dynamic_debug/control
149
150		// enable all the messages in file svcsock.c
151		nullarbor:~ # echo -n 'file svcsock.c +p' >
152						<debugfs>/dynamic_debug/control
153
154		// enable all the messages in the NFS server module
155		nullarbor:~ # echo -n 'module nfsd +p' >

174	  Enable core functional support of dynamic debug. It is useful
175	  when you want to tie dynamic debug to your kernel modules with
176	  DYNAMIC_DEBUG_MODULE defined for each of them, especially for
177	  the case of embedded system where the kernel image size is

185	  be able to print symbolic error names such as ENOSPC instead
186	  of the number 28. It makes the kernel image slightly larger

205	help
206	  If you say Y here the resulting kernel image will include
207	  debugging info resulting in a larger kernel image.
208	  This adds debug symbols to the kernel and modules (gcc -g), and
209	  is needed if you intend to use kernel crashdump or binary object
210	  tools like crash, kgdb, LKCD, gdb, etc on the kernel.
211	  Say Y here only if you plan to debug the kernel.

215config DEBUG_INFO_REDUCED
216	bool "Reduce debugging information"
217	depends on DEBUG_INFO
218	help
219	  If you say Y here gcc is instructed to generate less debugging
220	  information for structure types. This means that tools that
221	  need full debugging information (like kgdb or systemtap) won't
222	  be happy. But if you merely need debugging information to
223	  resolve line numbers there is no loss. Advantage is that
224	  build directory object sizes shrink dramatically over a full
225	  DEBUG_INFO build and compile times are reduced too.
226	  Only works with newer gcc versions.
227

234	help
235	  Compress the debug information using zlib.  Requires GCC 5.0+ or Clang
236	  5.0+, binutils 2.26+, and zlib.
237
238	  Users of dpkg-deb via scripts/package/builddeb may find an increase in
239	  size of their debug .deb packages with this config set, due to the
240	  debug info being compressed with zlib, then the object files being
241	  recompressed with a different compression scheme. But this is still
242	  preferable to setting $KDEB_COMPRESS to "none" which would be even
243	  larger.

246	bool "Produce split debuginfo in .dwo files"
247	depends on DEBUG_INFO
248	depends on $(cc-option,-gsplit-dwarf)
249	help
250	  Generate debug info into separate .dwo files. This significantly
251	  reduces the build directory size for builds with DEBUG_INFO,
252	  because it stores the information only once on disk in .dwo
253	  files instead of multiple times in object files and executables.
254	  In addition the debug information is also compressed.
255
256	  Requires recent gcc (4.7+) and recent gdb/binutils.
257	  Any tool that packages or reads debug information would need
258	  to know about the .dwo files and include them.
259	  Incompatible with older versions of ccache.

266	  Generate dwarf4 debug info. This requires recent versions
267	  of gcc and gdb. It makes the debug information larger.
268	  But it significantly improves the success of resolving
269	  variables in gdb on optimized code.

334	  into the usr/include directory for use during the kernel build.
335	  This is unneeded for building the kernel itself, but needed for some
336	  user-space program samples. It is also needed by some features such
337	  as uapi header sanity checks.
338
339config DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH
340	bool "Enable full Section mismatch analysis"
341	help
342	  The section mismatch analysis checks if there are illegal
343	  references from one section to another section.
344	  During linktime or runtime, some sections are dropped;
345	  any use of code/data previously in these sections would
346	  most likely result in an oops.
347	  In the code, functions and variables are annotated with
348	  __init,, etc. (see the full list in include/linux/init.h),
349	  which results in the code/data being placed in specific sections.
350	  The section mismatch analysis is always performed after a full
351	  kernel build, and enabling this option causes the following
352	  additional step to occur:
353	  - Add the option -fno-inline-functions-called-once to gcc commands.
354	    When inlining a function annotated with __init in a non-init
355	    function, we would lose the section information and thus
356	    the analysis would not catch the illegal reference.
357	    This option tells gcc to inline less (but it does result in
358	    a larger kernel).

1124	 This feature enables the kernel to prove that all locking
1125	 that occurs in the kernel runtime is mathematically
1126	 correct: that under no circumstance could an arbitrary (and
1127	 not yet triggered) combination of observed locking
1128	 sequences (on an arbitrary number of CPUs, running an
1129	 arbitrary number of tasks and interrupt contexts) cause a
1130	 deadlock.
1131
1132	 In short, this feature enables the kernel to report locking
1133	 related deadlocks before they actually occur.
1134
1135	 The proof does not depend on how hard and complex a
1136	 deadlock scenario would be to trigger: how many
1137	 participant CPUs, tasks and irq-contexts would be needed
1138	 for it to trigger. The proof also does not depend on
1139	 timing: if a race and a resulting deadlock is possible
1140	 theoretically (no matter how unlikely the race scenario
1141	 is), it will be proven so and will immediately be
1142	 reported by the kernel (once the event is observed that
1143	 makes the deadlock theoretically possible).
1144
1145	 If a deadlock is impossible (i.e. the locking rules, as
1146	 observed by the kernel, are mathematically correct), the
1147	 kernel reports nothing.

2215	  Test the kernel's module loading mechanism: kmod. kmod implements
2216	  support to load modules using the Linux kernel's usermode helper.
2217	  This test provides a series of tests against kmod.
2218
2219	  Although technically you can either build test_kmod as a module or
2220	  into the kernel we disallow building it into the kernel since
2221	  it stress tests request_module() and this will very likely cause
2222	  some issues by taking over precious threads available from other
2223	  module load requests, ultimately this could be fatal.
