menu "Kernel hacking"
source "lib/Kconfig.debug"
config DEBUG_STACKOVERFLOW
bool "Check for stack overflows"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
help
This option will cause messages to be printed if free stack space
drops below a certain limit.
config DEBUG_STACK_USAGE
bool "Stack utilization instrumentation"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
help
Enables the display of the minimum amount of free stack which each
task has ever had available in the sysrq-T and sysrq-P debug output.
This option will slow down process creation somewhat.
config DEBUG_PAGEALLOC
bool "Debug page memory allocations"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && !HIBERNATION
help
Unmap pages from the kernel linear mapping after free_pages().
This results in a large slowdown, but helps to find certain types
of memory corruptions.
config HCALL_STATS
bool "Hypervisor call instrumentation"
depends on PPC_PSERIES && DEBUG_FS
help
Adds code to keep track of the number of hypervisor calls made and
the amount of time spent in hypervisor calls. Wall time spent in
each call is always calculated, and if available CPU cycles spent
are also calculated. A directory named hcall_inst is added at the
root of the debugfs filesystem. Within the hcall_inst directory
are files that contain CPU specific call statistics.
This option will add a small amount of overhead to all hypervisor
calls.
config DEBUGGER
bool "Enable debugger hooks"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
help
Include in-kernel hooks for kernel debuggers. Unless you are
intending to debug the kernel, say N here.
config KGDB
bool "Include kgdb kernel debugger"
depends on DEBUGGER && (BROKEN || PPC_GEN550 || 4xx)
select DEBUG_INFO
help
Include in-kernel hooks for kgdb, the Linux kernel source level
debugger. See <http://kgdb.sourceforge.net/> for more information.
Unless you are intending to debug the kernel, say N here.
choice
prompt "Serial Port"
depends on KGDB
default KGDB_TTYS1
config KGDB_TTYS0
bool "ttyS0"
config KGDB_TTYS1
bool "ttyS1"
config KGDB_TTYS2
bool "ttyS2"
config KGDB_TTYS3
bool "ttyS3"
endchoice
config KGDB_CONSOLE
bool "Enable serial console thru kgdb port"
depends on KGDB && 8xx || CPM2
help
If you enable this, all serial console messages will be sent
over the gdb stub.
If unsure, say N.
config XMON
bool "Include xmon kernel debugger"
depends on DEBUGGER
help
Include in-kernel hooks for the xmon kernel monitor/debugger.
Unless you are intending to debug the kernel, say N here.
Make sure to enable also CONFIG_BOOTX_TEXT on Macs. Otherwise
nothing will appear on the screen (xmon writes directly to the
framebuffer memory).
The cmdline option 'xmon' or 'xmon=early' will drop into xmon
very early during boot. 'xmon=on' will just enable the xmon
debugger hooks. 'xmon=off' will disable the debugger hooks
if CONFIG_XMON_DEFAULT is set.
xmon will print a backtrace on the very first invocation.
'xmon=nobt' will disable this autobacktrace.
config XMON_DEFAULT
bool "Enable xmon by default"
depends on XMON
help
xmon is normally disabled unless booted with 'xmon=on'.
Use 'xmon=off' to disable xmon init during runtime.
config XMON_DISASSEMBLY
bool "Include disassembly support in xmon"
depends on XMON
default y
help
Include support for disassembling in xmon. You probably want
to say Y here, unless you're building for a memory-constrained
system.
config IRQSTACKS
bool "Use separate kernel stacks when processing interrupts"
depends on PPC64
help
If you say Y here the kernel will use separate kernel stacks
for handling hard and soft interrupts. This can help avoid
overflowing the process kernel stacks.
config VIRQ_DEBUG
bool "Expose hardware/virtual IRQ mapping via debugfs"
depends on DEBUG_FS && PPC_MERGE
help
This option will show the mapping relationship between hardware irq
numbers and virtual irq numbers. The mapping is exposed via debugfs
in the file powerpc/virq_mapping.
If you don't know what this means you don't need it.
config BDI_SWITCH
bool "Include BDI-2000 user context switcher"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && PPC32
help
Include in-kernel support for the Abatron BDI2000 debugger.
Unless you are intending to debug the kernel with one of these
machines, say N here.
config BOOTX_TEXT
bool "Support for early boot text console (BootX or OpenFirmware only)"
depends on PPC_OF && PPC_MULTIPLATFORM
help
Say Y here to see progress messages from the boot firmware in text
mode. Requires either BootX or Open Firmware.
config PPC_EARLY_DEBUG
bool "Early debugging (dangerous)"
choice
prompt "Early debugging console"
depends on PPC_EARLY_DEBUG
help
Use the selected console for early debugging. Careful, if you
enable debugging for the wrong type of machine your kernel
_will not boot_.
config PPC_EARLY_DEBUG_LPAR
bool "LPAR HV Console"
depends on PPC_PSERIES
help
Select this to enable early debugging for a machine with a HVC
console on vterm 0.
config PPC_EARLY_DEBUG_G5
bool "Apple G5"
depends on PPC_PMAC64
help
Select this to enable early debugging for Apple G5 machines.
config PPC_EARLY_DEBUG_RTAS_PANEL
bool "RTAS Panel"
depends on PPC_RTAS
help
Select this to enable early debugging via the RTAS panel.
config PPC_EARLY_DEBUG_RTAS_CONSOLE
bool "RTAS Console"
depends on PPC_RTAS
select UDBG_RTAS_CONSOLE
help
Select this to enable early debugging via the RTAS console.
config PPC_EARLY_DEBUG_MAPLE
bool "Maple real mode"
depends on PPC_MAPLE
help
Select this to enable early debugging for Maple.
config PPC_EARLY_DEBUG_ISERIES
bool "iSeries HV Console"
depends on PPC_ISERIES
help
Select this to enable early debugging for legacy iSeries. You need
to hit "Ctrl-x Ctrl-x" to see the messages on the console.
config PPC_EARLY_DEBUG_PAS_REALMODE
bool "PA Semi real mode"
depends on PPC_PASEMI
help
Select this to enable early debugging for PA Semi.
Output will be on UART0.
config PPC_EARLY_DEBUG_BEAT
bool "Beat HV Console"
depends on PPC_CELLEB
select PPC_UDBG_BEAT
help
Select this to enable early debugging for Celleb with Beat.
config PPC_EARLY_DEBUG_44x
bool "Early serial debugging for IBM/AMCC 44x CPUs"
depends on 44x
help
Select this to enable early debugging for IBM 44x chips via the
inbuilt serial port.
config PPC_EARLY_DEBUG_CPM
bool "Early serial debugging for Freescale CPM-based serial ports"
depends on SERIAL_CPM
select PIN_TLB if PPC_8xx
help
Select this to enable early debugging for Freescale chips
using a CPM-based serial port. This assumes that the bootwrapper
has run, and set up the CPM in a particular way.
endchoice
config PPC_EARLY_DEBUG_44x_PHYSLOW
hex "Low 32 bits of early debug UART physical address"
depends on PPC_EARLY_DEBUG_44x
default "0x40000200"
config PPC_EARLY_DEBUG_44x_PHYSHIGH
hex "EPRN of early debug UART physical address"
depends on PPC_EARLY_DEBUG_44x
default "0x1"
config PPC_EARLY_DEBUG_CPM_ADDR
hex "CPM UART early debug transmit descriptor address"
depends on PPC_EARLY_DEBUG_CPM
default "0xfa202008" if PPC_EP88XC
default "0xf0000008" if CPM2
default "0xff002008" if CPM1
help
This specifies the address of the transmit descriptor
used for early debug output. Because it is needed before
platform probing is done, all platforms selected must
share the same address.
