	  The timestamp is always recorded internally, and exported

	  Selecting this option causes printk() to add a caller "thread id" (if
	  in task context) or a caller "processor id" (if not in task context)
	  to every message.

	  This option is intended for environments where multiple threads
	  concurrently call printk() for many times, for it is difficult to
	  interpret without knowing where these lines (or sometimes individual
	  line which was divided into multiple lines due to race) came from.

	  Since toggling after boot makes the code racy, currently there is
	  no option to enable/disable at the kernel command line parameter or
	  sysfs interface.

	  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,
120 121 122
	  which is contained in the 'debugfs' filesystem or procfs.
	  Thus, the debugfs or procfs filesystem must first be mounted before
	  making use of this feature.
123 124 125 126 127 128 129 130 131 132
	  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
133 134
	  flags : '=p' means the line is turned 'on' for printing
	  format : the format used for the debug statement
135 136 137 138 139 140 141 142 143 144 145 146 147 148 149 150 151 152 153 154 155 156 157 158 159 160 161 162 163 164 165

	  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: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' >

	  preferable to setting $KDEB_COMPRESS to "none" which would be even

	 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
	  last reference count put is not predictable, and the kobject can
	  live on past the point at which a driver decides to drop it's
	  initial reference to the kobject gained on allocation.  An
	  example of this would be a struct device which has just been

	  However, some buggy drivers assume that after such an operation,
	  the memory backing the kobject can be immediately freed.  This
	  goes completely against the principles of a refcounted object.

	  If you say Y here, the kernel will delay the release of kobjects

	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.
