   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

  45           will be able to flush the buffer cache to disk, reboot the system
  46           immediately or dump some status information). This is accomplished
  47           by pressing various keys while holding SysRq (Alt+PrintScreen). It
  48           also works on a serial console (on PC hardware at least), if you
  49           send a BREAK and then within 5 seconds a command keypress. The
  50           keys are documented in <file:Documentation/sysrq.txt>. Don't say Y

  57           Unused but exported symbols make the kernel needlessly bigger.  For
  58           that reason most of these unused exports will soon be removed.  This
  59           option is provided temporarily to provide a transition period in case
  60           some external kernel module needs one of these symbols anyway. If you
  61           encounter such a case in your module, consider if you are actually
  62           using the right API.  (rationale: since nobody in the kernel is using
  63           this in a module, there is a pretty good chance it's actually the
  64           wrong interface to use).  If you really need the symbol, please send a
  65           mail to the linux kernel mailing list mentioning the symbol and why
  66           you really need it, and what the merge plan to the mainline kernel for

 100           The section mismatch analysis checks if there are illegal
 101           references from one section to another section.
 102           Linux will during link or during runtime drop some sections
 103           and any use of code/data previously in these sections will
 104           most likely result in an oops.
 105           In the code functions and variables are annotated with
 106           __init, __devinit etc. (see full list in include/linux/init.h)
 107           which results in the code/data being placed in specific sections.
 108           The section mismatch analysis is always done after a full
 109           kernel build but enabling this option will in addition
 110           do the following:
 111           - Add the option -fno-inline-functions-called-once to gcc
 112             When inlining a function annotated __init in a non-init
 113             function we would lose the section information and thus
 114             the analysis would not catch the illegal reference.
 115             This option tells gcc to inline less but will also
 116             result in a larger kernel.
 117           - Run the section mismatch analysis for each module/built-in.o
 118             When we run the section mismatch analysis on vmlinux.o we
 119             lose valueble information about where the mismatch was
 120             introduced.
 121             Running the analysis for each module/built-in.o file
 122             will tell where the mismatch happens much closer to the
 123             source. The drawback is that we will report the same
 124             mismatch at least twice.
 125           - Enable verbose reporting from modpost to help solving
 126             the section mismatches reported.

 148           Say Y here to enable the kernel to detect "soft lockups",
 149           which are bugs that cause the kernel to loop in kernel
 150           mode for more than 10 seconds, without giving other tasks a
 151           chance to run.
 152
 153           When a soft-lockup is detected, the kernel will print the
 154           current stack trace (which you should report), but the
 155           system will stay locked up. This feature has negligible
 156           overhead.

 179           If you aren't debugging the scheduler or trying to tune a specific

 333          This feature enables the kernel to prove that all locking
 334          that occurs in the kernel runtime is mathematically
 335          correct: that under no circumstance could an arbitrary (and
 336          not yet triggered) combination of observed locking
 337          sequences (on an arbitrary number of CPUs, running an
 338          arbitrary number of tasks and interrupt contexts) cause a
 339          deadlock.
 340
 341          In short, this feature enables the kernel to report locking
 342          related deadlocks before they actually occur.
 343
 344          The proof does not depend on how hard and complex a
 345          deadlock scenario would be to trigger: how many
 346          participant CPUs, tasks and irq-contexts would be needed
 347          for it to trigger. The proof also does not depend on
 348          timing: if a race and a resulting deadlock is possible
 349          theoretically (no matter how unlikely the race scenario
 350          is), it will be proven so and will immediately be
 351          reported by the kernel (once the event is observed that
 352          makes the deadlock theoretically possible).
 353
 354          If a deadlock is impossible (i.e. the locking rules, as
 355          observed by the kernel, are mathematically correct), the
 356          kernel reports nothing.
 357
 358          NOTE: this feature can also be enabled for rwlocks, mutexes
 359          and rwsems - in which case all dependencies between these
 360          different locking variants are observed and mapped too, and
 361          the proof of observed correctness is also maintained for an
 362          arbitrary combination of these separate locking variants.

 639         help
 640           If you want to debug problems which hang or crash the kernel early
 641           on boot and the crashing machine has a FireWire port, you can use
 642           this feature to remotely access the memory of the crashed machine
 643           over FireWire. This employs remote DMA as part of the OHCI1394
 644           specification which is now the standard for FireWire controllers.
 645
 646           With remote DMA, you can monitor the printk buffer remotely using
 647           firescope and access all memory below 4GB using fireproxy from gdb.
 648           Even controlling a kernel debugger is possible using remote DMA.
 649
 650           Usage:
 651
 652           If ohci1394_dma=early is used as boot parameter, it will initialize
 653           all OHCI1394 controllers which are found in the PCI config space.
 654
 655           As all changes to the FireWire bus such as enabling and disabling
 656           devices cause a bus reset and thereby disable remote DMA for all
 657           devices, be sure to have the cable plugged and FireWire enabled on
 658           the debugging host before booting the debug target for debugging.
 659
 660           This code (~1k) is freed after boot. By then, the firewire stack
 661           in charge of the OHCI-1394 controllers should be used instead.
