- This is useful for kernel debugging when your machine crashes very

- ---help---
- Write kernel log output directly into the xHCI debug port.
- One use for this feature is kernel debugging, for example when your
- machine crashes very early before the regular console code is
- initialized. Other uses include simpler, lockless logging instead of
- a full-blown printk console driver + klogd.
- For normal production environments this is normally not recommended,
- because it doesn't feed events into klogd/syslogd and doesn't try to
- print anything on the screen.
- You should normally say N here, unless you want to debug early

- Say Y here if you want to show the kernel pagetable layout in a

- It is probably not a good idea to enable this feature in a production

- issues with the mapping of the EFI runtime regions into that
- table.
- config DEBUG_WX
- bool "Warn on W+X mappings at boot"
- select X86_PTDUMP_CORE
- ---help---
- Generate a warning if any W+X mappings are found at boot.
- This is useful for discovering cases where the kernel is leaving
- W+X mappings after applying NX, as such mappings are a security risk.
- Look for a message in dmesg output like this:
- x86/mm: Checked W+X mappings: passed, no W+X pages found.
- or like this, if the check failed:
- x86/mm: Checked W+X mappings: FAILED, <N> W+X pages found.
- Note that even if the check fails, your kernel is possibly
- still fine, as W+X mappings are not a security hole in
- themselves, what they do is that they make the exploitation
- of other unfixed kernel bugs easier.
- There is no runtime or memory usage effect of this option
- once the kernel has booted up - it's a one time check.
- If in doubt, say "Y".
- config DOUBLEFAULT
- default y
- bool "Enable doublefault exception handler" if EXPERT
- ---help---
- This option allows trapping of rare doublefault exceptions that

- hair.
- config DEBUG_TLBFLUSH
- bool "Set upper limit of TLB entries to flush one-by-one"
- depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
- ---help---
- X86-only for now.
- This option allows the user to tune the amount of TLB entries the
- kernel flushes one-by-one instead of doing a full TLB flush. In
- certain situations, the former is cheaper. This is controlled by the
- tlb_flushall_shift knob under /sys/kernel/debug/x86. If you set it
- to -1, the code flushes the whole TLB unconditionally. Otherwise,
- for positive values of it, the kernel will use single TLB entry
- invalidating instructions according to the following formula:
- flush_entries <= active_tlb_entries / 2^tlb_flushall_shift
- If in doubt, say "N".
- config IOMMU_DEBUG
- bool "Enable IOMMU debugging"
- depends on GART_IOMMU && DEBUG_KERNEL
- depends on X86_64
- ---help---
- Force the IOMMU to on even when you have less than 4GB of
- memory and add debugging code. On overflow always panic. And
- allow to enable IOMMU leak tracing. Can be disabled at boot
- time with iommu=noforce. This will also enable scatter gather
- list merging. Currently not recommended for production
- code. When you use it make sure you have a big enough
- IOMMU/AGP aperture. Most of the options enabled by this can
- be set more finegrained using the iommu= command line
- options. See Documentation/x86/x86_64/boot-options.txt for more
- details.
- config IOMMU_LEAK
- bool "IOMMU leak tracing"
- depends on IOMMU_DEBUG && DMA_API_DEBUG

- are debugging a buggy device driver that leaks IOMMU mappings.

- config OPTIMIZE_INLINING

- ---help---
- This option determines if the kernel forces gcc to inline the functions
- developers have marked 'inline'. Doing so takes away freedom from gcc to
- do what it thinks is best, which is desirable for the gcc 3.x series of
- compilers. The gcc 4.x series have a rewritten inlining algorithm and
- enabling this option will generate a smaller kernel there. Hopefully
- this algorithm is so good that allowing gcc 4.x and above to make the
- decision will become the default in the future. Until then this option
- is there to test gcc for this.
- If unsure, say N.
- config DEBUG_ENTRY
- bool "Debug low-level entry code"
- depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
- ---help---
- This option enables sanity checks in x86's low-level entry code.

- If unsure, say N.
- config DEBUG_NMI_SELFTEST
- bool "NMI Selftest"

- This option enables automated sanity testing of the IMR code.
- Some simple tests are run to verify IMR bounds checking, alignment

- test your changes.
- If unsure say N here.
- config X86_DEBUG_FPU
- bool "Debug the x86 FPU code"
- depends on DEBUG_KERNEL

- config UNWINDER_ORC
- bool "ORC unwinder"
- depends on X86_64
- select STACK_VALIDATION
- ---help---
- This option enables the ORC (Oops Rewind Capability) unwinder for
- unwinding kernel stack traces. It uses a custom data format which is
- a simplified version of the DWARF Call Frame Information standard.
- This unwinder is more accurate across interrupt entry frames than the
- frame pointer unwinder. It also enables a 5-10% performance
- improvement across the entire kernel compared to frame pointers.
- Enabling this option will increase the kernel's runtime memory usage
- by roughly 2-4MB, depending on your kernel config.
- config UNWINDER_FRAME_POINTER
- bool "Frame pointer unwinder"
- select FRAME_POINTER
- ---help---
- This option enables the frame pointer unwinder for unwinding kernel
- stack traces.
- The unwinder itself is fast and it uses less RAM than the ORC
- unwinder, but the kernel text size will grow by ~3% and the kernel's
- overall performance will degrade by roughly 5-10%.
- This option is recommended if you want to use the livepatch
- consistency model, as this is currently the only way to get a
- reliable stack trace (CONFIG_HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE).
- config UNWINDER_GUESS

- ---help---
- This option enables the "guess" unwinder for unwinding kernel stack
- traces. It scans the stack and reports every kernel text address it
- finds. Some of the addresses it reports may be incorrect.
- While this option often produces false positives, it can still be
- useful in many cases. Unlike the other unwinders, it has no runtime
- overhead.
