Write kernel log output directly into the VGA buffer or to a serial
|
|
port.
|
|
|
|
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 and doesn't cooperate
|
|
with klogd/syslogd or the X server. You should normally N here,
|
|
unless you want to debug such a crash.

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.

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.

|
|
Mark the kernel read-only data as write-protected in the pagetables,
|
|
in order to catch accidental (and incorrect) writes to such const
|
|
data. This option may have a slight performance impact because a
|
|
portion of the kernel code won't be covered by a 2MB TLB anymore.
|
|
If in doubt, say "N".

help
|
|
If you say Y here the kernel will use a 4Kb stacksize for the
|
|
kernel stack attached to each process/thread. This facilitates
|
|
running more threads on a system and also reduces the pressure
|
|
on the VM subsystem for higher order allocations. This option
|
|
will also use IRQ stacks to compensate for the reduced stackspace.

help
|

This option allows trapping of rare doublefault exceptions that
|
|
would otherwise cause a system to silently reboot. Disabling this
|
|
option saves about 4k and might cause you much additional grey
|
|
hair.

help
|
|
Force the IOMMU to on even when you have less than 4GB of
|
|
memory and add debugging code. On overflow always panic. And
|
|
allow to enable IOMMU leak tracing. Can be disabled at boot
|
|
time with iommu=noforce. This will also enable scatter gather
|
|
list merging. Currently not recommended for production
|
|
code. When you use it make sure you have a big enough
|
|
IOMMU/AGP aperture. Most of the options enabled by this can
|
|
be set more finegrained using the iommu= command line
|
|
options. See Documentation/x86_64/boot-options.txt for more
|
|
details.

Add a simple leak tracer to the IOMMU code. This is useful when you
|
|
are debugging a buggy device driver that leaks IOMMU mappings.
