- This option enables special console drivers which allow the kernel
- to print messages very early in the bootup process.
- This is useful for kernel debugging when your machine crashes very
- early before the console code is initialized. For normal operation,
- it is not recommended because it looks ugly on some machines and
- doesn't cooperate with an X server. You should normally say N here,
- unless you want to debug such a crash.

- For most systems, it is firmware or second stage bootloader that
- by default specifies the kernel command line options. However,
- it might be necessary or advantageous to either override the
- default kernel command line or add a few extra options to it.
- For such cases, this option allows you to hardcode your own
- command line options directly into the kernel. For that, you
- should choose 'Y' here, and fill in the extra boot arguments
- in CONFIG_CMDLINE.
- The built-in options will be concatenated to the default command
- line if CMDLINE_OVERRIDE is set to 'N'. Otherwise, the default
- command line will be ignored and replaced by the built-in string.
- Most MIPS systems will normally expect 'N' here and rely upon
- the command line from the firmware or the second-stage bootloader.

- help
- On some platforms, there is currently no way for the boot loader to
- pass arguments to the kernel. For these platforms, and for the cases
- when you want to add some extra options to the command line or ignore
- the default command line, you can supply some command-line options at
- build time by entering them here. In other cases you can specify
- kernel args so that you don't have to set them up in board prom
- initialization routines.
- For more information, see the CMDLINE_BOOL and CMDLINE_OVERRIDE
- options.

- default n

- help
- By setting this option to 'Y' you will have your kernel ignore
- command line arguments from firmware or second stage bootloader.
- Instead, the built-in command line will be used exclusively.
- Normally, you will choose 'N' here.

- If you say Y here, some debugging macros will do run-time checking.

- If you want to add compressed kernel support to a new board, and the
- board supports uart16550 compatible serial port, please select
- SYS_SUPPORTS_ZBOOT_UART16550 for your board and enable this option to
- debug it.
- If your board doesn't support uart16550 compatible serial port, you
- can try to select SYS_SUPPORTS_ZBOOT and use the other methods to
- debug it. for example, add a new serial port support just as
- arch/mips/boot/compressed/uart-16550.c does.
- After the compressed kernel support works, please disable this option
- to reduce the kernel image size and speed up the booting procedure a
- little.
