Selecting this option causes time stamps of the printk()

messages to be added to the output of the syslog() system
|
|
call and at the console.
|

The timestamp is always recorded internally, and exported

to /dev/kmsg. This flag just specifies if the timestamp should
|
|
be included, not that the timestamp is recorded.

This build option allows you to read kernel boot messages
|
|
by inserting a short delay after each one. The delay is
|
|
specified in milliseconds on the kernel command line,
|
|
using "boot_delay=N".
|
|
|
|
It is likely that you would also need to use "lpj=M" to preset
|
|
the "loops per jiffie" value.
|
|
See a previous boot log for the "lpj" value to use for your
|
|
system, and then set "lpj=M" before setting "boot_delay=N".
|
|
NOTE: Using this option may adversely affect SMP systems.
|
|
I.e., processors other than the first one may not boot up.

BOOT_PRINTK_DELAY also may cause LOCKUP_DETECTOR to detect

what it believes to be lockup conditions.

Compiles debug level messages into the kernel, which would not
|
|
otherwise be available at runtime. These messages can then be
|
|
enabled/disabled based on various levels of scope - per source file,
|
|
function, module, format string, and line number. This mechanism
|
|
implicitly compiles in all pr_debug() and dev_dbg() calls, which
|
|
enlarges the kernel text size by about 2%.
|
|
|
|
If a source file is compiled with DEBUG flag set, any
|
|
pr_debug() calls in it are enabled by default, but can be
|
|
disabled at runtime as below. Note that DEBUG flag is
|
|
turned on by many CONFIG_*DEBUG* options.
|
|
|
|
Usage:
|
|
|
|
Dynamic debugging is controlled via the 'dynamic_debug/control' file,
|
|
which is contained in the 'debugfs' filesystem. Thus, the debugfs
|
|
filesystem must first be mounted before making use of this feature.
|
|
We refer the control file as: <debugfs>/dynamic_debug/control. This
|
|
file contains a list of the debug statements that can be enabled. The
|
|
format for each line of the file is:
|
|
|
|
filename:lineno [module]function flags format
|
|
|
|
filename : source file of the debug statement
|
|
lineno : line number of the debug statement
|
|
module : module that contains the debug statement
|
|
function : function that contains the debug statement
|
|
flags : '=p' means the line is turned 'on' for printing
|
|
format : the format used for the debug statement
|
|
|
|
From a live system:
|
|
|
|
nullarbor:~ # cat <debugfs>/dynamic_debug/control
|
|
# filename:lineno [module]function flags format
|
|
fs/aio.c:222 [aio]__put_ioctx =_ "__put_ioctx:\040freeing\040%p\012"
|
|
fs/aio.c:248 [aio]ioctx_alloc =_ "ENOMEM:\040nr_events\040too\040high\012"
|
|
fs/aio.c:1770 [aio]sys_io_cancel =_ "calling\040cancel\012"
|
|
|
|
Example usage:
|
|
|
|
// enable the message at line 1603 of file svcsock.c
|
|
nullarbor:~ # echo -n 'file svcsock.c line 1603 +p' >
|
|

|
|
|
// enable all the messages in file svcsock.c

help

The section mismatch analysis checks if there are illegal

references from one section to another section.
|
|
During linktime or runtime, some sections are dropped;
|
|
any use of code/data previously in these sections would
|
|
most likely result in an oops.
|
|
In the code, functions and variables are annotated with
|
|
__init,, etc. (see the full list in include/linux/init.h),
|
|
which results in the code/data being placed in specific sections.
|
|
The section mismatch analysis is always performed after a full
|
|
kernel build, and enabling this option causes the following
|
|
additional steps to occur:
|
|
- Add the option -fno-inline-functions-called-once to gcc commands.
|
|
When inlining a function annotated with __init in a non-init
|
|
function, we would lose the section information and thus
|
|
the analysis would not catch the illegal reference.
|
|
This option tells gcc to inline less (but it does result in
|
|
a larger kernel).
|
|
- Run the section mismatch analysis for each module/built-in.o file.
|
|
When we run the section mismatch analysis on vmlinux.o, we
|
|
lose valueble information about where the mismatch was
|
|
introduced.
|
|
Running the analysis for each module/built-in.o file
|
|
tells where the mismatch happens much closer to the
|
|
source. The drawback is that the same mismatch is
|
|
reported at least twice.
|
|
- Enable verbose reporting from modpost in order to help resolve
|
|
the section mismatches that are reported.

This feature enables the kernel to prove that all locking
|
|
that occurs in the kernel runtime is mathematically
|
|
correct: that under no circumstance could an arbitrary (and
|
|
not yet triggered) combination of observed locking
|
|
sequences (on an arbitrary number of CPUs, running an
|
|
arbitrary number of tasks and interrupt contexts) cause a
|
|
deadlock.
|
|
|
|
In short, this feature enables the kernel to report locking
|
|
related deadlocks before they actually occur.
|
|
|
|
The proof does not depend on how hard and complex a
|
|
deadlock scenario would be to trigger: how many
|
|
participant CPUs, tasks and irq-contexts would be needed
|
|
for it to trigger. The proof also does not depend on
|
|
timing: if a race and a resulting deadlock is possible
|
|
theoretically (no matter how unlikely the race scenario
|
|
is), it will be proven so and will immediately be
|
|
reported by the kernel (once the event is observed that
|
|
makes the deadlock theoretically possible).
|
|
|
|
If a deadlock is impossible (i.e. the locking rules, as
|
|
observed by the kernel, are mathematically correct), the
|
|
kernel reports nothing.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: this feature can also be enabled for rwlocks, mutexes
|
|
and rwsems - in which case all dependencies between these
|
|
different locking variants are observed and mapped too, and
|
|
the proof of observed correctness is also maintained for an
|
|
arbitrary combination of these separate locking variants.

kobjects are reference counted objects. This means that their

initial reference to the kobject gained on allocation. An

example of this would be a struct device which has just been

bool "Remote debugging over FireWire early on boot"
|
|
depends on PCI && X86
|
|
help
|
|
If you want to debug problems which hang or crash the kernel early
|
|
on boot and the crashing machine has a FireWire port, you can use
|
|
this feature to remotely access the memory of the crashed machine
|
|
over FireWire. This employs remote DMA as part of the OHCI1394
|
|
specification which is now the standard for FireWire controllers.
|
|
|
|
With remote DMA, you can monitor the printk buffer remotely using
|
|
firescope and access all memory below 4GB using fireproxy from gdb.
|
|
Even controlling a kernel debugger is possible using remote DMA.
|
|
|
|
Usage:
|
|
|
|
If ohci1394_dma=early is used as boot parameter, it will initialize
|
|
all OHCI1394 controllers which are found in the PCI config space.
|
|
|
|
As all changes to the FireWire bus such as enabling and disabling
|
|
devices cause a bus reset and thereby disable remote DMA for all
|
|
devices, be sure to have the cable plugged and FireWire enabled on
|
|
the debugging host before booting the debug target for debugging.
|
|
|
|
This code (~1k) is freed after boot. By then, the firewire stack
|
|
in charge of the OHCI-1394 controllers should be used instead.
|
|
|
|
See Documentation/debugging-via-ohci1394.txt for more information.

depends on HAVE_DMA_API_DEBUG
|
|
help
|
|
Enable this option to debug the use of the DMA API by device drivers.
|
|
With this option you will be able to detect common bugs in device
|
|
drivers like double-freeing of DMA mappings or freeing mappings that
|
|
were never allocated.
|
|
|
|
This also attempts to catch cases where a page owned by DMA is
|
|
accessed by the cpu in a way that could cause data corruption. For
|
|
example, this enables cow_user_page() to check that the source page is
|
|
not undergoing DMA.
|
|
|
|
This option causes a performance degradation. Use only if you want to
|
|
debug device drivers and dma interactions.
