menu "Kernel hacking" source "lib/Kconfig.debug" # RMK wants arm kernels compiled with frame pointers so hardwire this to y.# If you know what you are doing and are willing to live without stack# traces, you can get a slightly smaller kernel by setting this option to# n, but then RMK will have to kill you ;).config FRAME_POINTER	bool	default y	help	  If you say N here, the resulting kernel will be slightly smaller and	  faster. However, when a problem occurs with the kernel, the	  information that is reported is severely limited. Most people	  should say Y here. config DEBUG_USER	bool "Verbose user fault messages"	help	  When a user program crashes due to an exception, the kernel can	  print a brief message explaining what the problem was. This is	  sometimes helpful for debugging but serves no purpose on a	  production system. Most people should say N here. config DEBUG_WAITQ	bool "Wait queue debugging"	depends on DEBUG_KERNEL config DEBUG_ERRORS	bool "Verbose kernel error messages"	depends on DEBUG_KERNEL	help	  This option controls verbose debugging information which can be	  printed when the kernel detects an internal error. This debugging	  information is useful to kernel hackers when tracking down problems,	  but mostly meaningless to other people. It's safe to say Y unless	  you are concerned with the code size or don't want to see these	  messages. # These options are only for real kernel hackers who want to get their hands dirty.config DEBUG_LL	bool "Kernel low-level debugging functions"	depends on DEBUG_KERNEL	help	  Say Y here to include definitions of printascii, printchar, printhex	  in the kernel.  This is helpful if you are debugging code that	  executes before the console is initialized. endmenu
