Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!

config PRINTK_TIME
|
||||
bool "Show timing information on printks"
|
||||
help
|
||||
Selecting this option causes timing information to be
|
||||
included in printk output. This allows you to measure
|
||||
the interval between kernel operations, including bootup
|
||||
operations. This is useful for identifying long delays
|
||||
in kernel startup.

config DEBUG_KERNEL

Say Y here if you are developing drivers or trying to debug and
|

identify kernel problems.

config MAGIC_SYSRQ

bool "Magic SysRq key"
|

depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && !UML
|

help
|
||||
If you say Y here, you will have some control over the system even
|
||||
if the system crashes for example during kernel debugging (e.g., you
|
||||
will be able to flush the buffer cache to disk, reboot the system
|
||||
immediately or dump some status information). This is accomplished
|
||||
by pressing various keys while holding SysRq (Alt+PrintScreen). It
|
||||
also works on a serial console (on PC hardware at least), if you
|
||||
send a BREAK and then within 5 seconds a command keypress. The
|
||||
keys are documented in <file:Documentation/sysrq.txt>. Don't say Y
|
||||
unless you really know what this hack does.

config SCHEDSTATS

bool "Collect scheduler statistics"

depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && PROC_FS
|

help
|
||||
If you say Y here, additional code will be inserted into the
|
||||
scheduler and related routines to collect statistics about
|
||||
scheduler behavior and provide them in /proc/schedstat. These
|
||||
stats may be useful for both tuning and debugging the scheduler
|
||||
If you aren't debugging the scheduler or trying to tune a specific
|
||||
application, you can say N to avoid the very slight overhead
|
||||
this adds.

config DEBUG_SLAB
|

bool "Debug memory allocations"
|

depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
|
||||
help
|
||||
Say Y here to have the kernel do limited verification on memory
|
||||
allocation as well as poisoning memory on free to catch use of freed
|
||||
memory. This can make kmalloc/kfree-intensive workloads much slower.

bool "Debug preemptible kernel"

depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && PREEMPT
|

default y
|
||||
help
|
||||
If you say Y here then the kernel will use a debug variant of the
|
||||
commonly used smp_processor_id() function and will print warnings
|
||||
if kernel code uses it in a preemption-unsafe way. Also, the kernel
|
||||
will detect preemption count underflows.
|
||||
|

config DEBUG_SPINLOCK
|
||||
bool "Spinlock debugging"
|
||||
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
|
||||
help
|
||||
Say Y here and build SMP to catch missing spinlock initialization
|
||||
and certain other kinds of spinlock errors commonly made. This is
|
||||
best used in conjunction with the NMI watchdog so that spinlock
|
||||
deadlocks are also debuggable.

bool "Sleep-inside-spinlock checking"

If you say Y here, various routines which may sleep will become very

noisy if they are called with a spinlock held.

config DEBUG_KOBJECT

bool "kobject debugging"

help
|

Say Y here to make BUG() panics output the file name and line number
|
||||
of the BUG call as well as the EIP and oops trace. This aids

debugging but costs about 70-100K of memory.

bool "Compile the kernel with debug info"

If you say Y here the resulting kernel image will include
|

debugging info resulting in a larger kernel image.

Say Y here only if you plan to debug the kernel.

If unsure, say N.

config DEBUG_IOREMAP
|

bool "Enable ioremap() debugging"
|
||||
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && PARISC
|
||||
help
|
||||
Enabling this option will cause the kernel to distinguish between
|
||||
ioremapped and physical addresses. It will print a backtrace (at
|
||||
most one every 10 seconds), hopefully allowing you to see which
|
||||
drivers need work. Fixing all these problems is a prerequisite
|
||||
for turning on USE_HPPA_IOREMAP. The warnings are harmless;
|
||||
the kernel has enough information to fix the broken drivers
|
||||
automatically, but we'd like to make it more efficient by not
|
||||
having to do that.

config DEBUG_FS

debugfs is a virtual file system that kernel developers use to put

debugging files into. Enable this option to be able to read and

|
||||
help
|
||||
If you say Y here the resulting kernel image will be slightly larger
|
||||
and slower, but it will give very useful debugging information.
|
||||
If you don't debug the kernel, you can say N, but we may not be able
|
||||
to solve problems without frame pointers.
