6config PRINTK_TIME
7	bool "Show timing information on printks"
8	depends on PRINTK
9	help
10	  Selecting this option causes time stamps of the printk()
11	  messages to be added to the output of the syslog() system
12	  call and at the console.
13
14	  The timestamp is always recorded internally, and exported
15	  to /dev/kmsg. This flag just specifies if the timestamp should
16	  be included, not that the timestamp is recorded.
17
18	  The behavior is also controlled by the kernel command line
19	  parameter printk.time=1. See Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.rst
20
21config PRINTK_CALLER
22	bool "Show caller information on printks"
23	depends on PRINTK
24	help
25	  Selecting this option causes printk() to add a caller "thread id" (if
26	  in task context) or a caller "processor id" (if not in task context)
27	  to every message.
28
29	  This option is intended for environments where multiple threads
30	  concurrently call printk() for many times, for it is difficult to
31	  interpret without knowing where these lines (or sometimes individual
32	  line which was divided into multiple lines due to race) came from.
33
34	  Since toggling after boot makes the code racy, currently there is
35	  no option to enable/disable at the kernel command line parameter or
36	  sysfs interface.
37
38config STACKTRACE_BUILD_ID
39	bool "Show build ID information in stacktraces"
40	depends on PRINTK
41	help
42	  Selecting this option adds build ID information for symbols in
43	  stacktraces printed with the printk format '%p[SR]b'.
44
45	  This option is intended for distros where debuginfo is not easily
46	  accessible but can be downloaded given the build ID of the vmlinux or
47	  kernel module where the function is located.

52	default "7"
53	help
54	  Default loglevel to determine what will be printed on the console.
55
56	  Setting a default here is equivalent to passing in loglevel=<x> in
57	  the kernel bootargs. loglevel=<x> continues to override whatever
58	  value is specified here as well.
59
60	  Note: This does not affect the log level of un-prefixed printk()
61	  usage in the kernel. That is controlled by the MESSAGE_LOGLEVEL_DEFAULT
62	  option.
63
64config CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_QUIET
65	int "quiet console loglevel (1-15)"
66	range 1 15
67	default "4"
68	help
69	  loglevel to use when "quiet" is passed on the kernel commandline.
70
71	  When "quiet" is passed on the kernel commandline this loglevel
72	  will be used as the loglevel. IOW passing "quiet" will be the
73	  equivalent of passing "loglevel=<CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_QUIET>"
74

81
82	  This was hard-coded to KERN_WARNING since at least 2.6.10 but folks
83	  that are auditing their logs closely may want to set it to a lower
84	  priority.
85
86	  Note: This does not affect what message level gets printed on the console
87	  by default. To change that, use loglevel=<x> in the kernel bootargs,
88	  or pick a different CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_DEFAULT configuration value.

90config BOOT_PRINTK_DELAY
91	bool "Delay each boot printk message by N milliseconds"
92	depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && PRINTK && GENERIC_CALIBRATE_DELAY
93	help
94	  This build option allows you to read kernel boot messages
95	  by inserting a short delay after each one.  The delay is
96	  specified in milliseconds on the kernel command line,
97	  using "boot_delay=N".
98
99	  It is likely that you would also need to use "lpj=M" to preset
100	  the "loops per jiffie" value.
101	  See a previous boot log for the "lpj" value to use for your
102	  system, and then set "lpj=M" before setting "boot_delay=N".
103	  NOTE:  Using this option may adversely affect SMP systems.
104	  I.e., processors other than the first one may not boot up.
105	  BOOT_PRINTK_DELAY also may cause LOCKUP_DETECTOR to detect
106	  what it believes to be lockup conditions.

114	help
115
116	  Compiles debug level messages into the kernel, which would not
117	  otherwise be available at runtime. These messages can then be
118	  enabled/disabled based on various levels of scope - per source file,
119	  function, module, format string, and line number. This mechanism
120	  implicitly compiles in all pr_debug() and dev_dbg() calls, which
121	  enlarges the kernel text size by about 2%.
122
123	  If a source file is compiled with DEBUG flag set, any
124	  pr_debug() calls in it are enabled by default, but can be
125	  disabled at runtime as below.  Note that DEBUG flag is
126	  turned on by many CONFIG_*DEBUG* options.
127
128	  Usage:
129
130	  Dynamic debugging is controlled via the 'dynamic_debug/control' file,
131	  which is contained in the 'debugfs' filesystem or procfs.
132	  Thus, the debugfs or procfs filesystem must first be mounted before
133	  making use of this feature.
134	  We refer the control file as: <debugfs>/dynamic_debug/control. This
135	  file contains a list of the debug statements that can be enabled. The
136	  format for each line of the file is:
137
138		filename:lineno [module]function flags format
139
140	  filename : source file of the debug statement
141	  lineno : line number of the debug statement
142	  module : module that contains the debug statement
143	  function : function that contains the debug statement
144	  flags : '=p' means the line is turned 'on' for printing
145	  format : the format used for the debug statement
146
147	  From a live system:
148
149		nullarbor:~ # cat <debugfs>/dynamic_debug/control
150		# filename:lineno [module]function flags format
151		fs/aio.c:222 [aio]__put_ioctx =_ "__put_ioctx:\040freeing\040%p\012"

153		fs/aio.c:1770 [aio]sys_io_cancel =_ "calling\040cancel\012"
154
155	  Example usage:
156
157		// enable the message at line 1603 of file svcsock.c
158		nullarbor:~ # echo -n 'file svcsock.c line 1603 +p' >

185	  Enable core functional support of dynamic debug. It is useful
186	  when you want to tie dynamic debug to your kernel modules with
187	  DYNAMIC_DEBUG_MODULE defined for each of them, especially for
188	  the case of embedded system where the kernel image size is

196	  be able to print symbolic error names such as ENOSPC instead
197	  of the number 28. It makes the kernel image slightly larger

217	  If you say Y here the resulting kernel image will include
218	  debugging info resulting in a larger kernel image.
219	  This adds debug symbols to the kernel and modules (gcc -g), and

229	bool "Reduce debugging information"
230	help
231	  If you say Y here gcc is instructed to generate less debugging
232	  information for structure types. This means that tools that
233	  need full debugging information (like kgdb or systemtap) won't
234	  be happy. But if you merely need debugging information to
235	  resolve line numbers there is no loss. Advantage is that
236	  build directory object sizes shrink dramatically over a full
237	  DEBUG_INFO build and compile times are reduced too.

246	  5.0+, binutils 2.26+, and zlib.
247
248	  Users of dpkg-deb via scripts/package/builddeb may find an increase in
249	  size of their debug .deb packages with this config set, due to the
250	  debug info being compressed with zlib, then the object files being
251	  recompressed with a different compression scheme. But this is still

258	help
259	  Generate debug info into separate .dwo files. This significantly
260	  reduces the build directory size for builds with DEBUG_INFO,
261	  because it stores the information only once on disk in .dwo
262	  files instead of multiple times in object files and executables.
263	  In addition the debug information is also compressed.
264
265	  Requires recent gcc (4.7+) and recent gdb/binutils.

1746	  this feature to remotely access the memory of the crashed machine
1747	  over FireWire. This employs remote DMA as part of the OHCI1394
1748	  specification which is now the standard for FireWire controllers.
1749
1750	  With remote DMA, you can monitor the printk buffer remotely using
1751	  firescope and access all memory below 4GB using fireproxy from gdb.

1754	  Usage:
1755

1757	  all OHCI1394 controllers which are found in the PCI config space.
1758
1759	  As all changes to the FireWire bus such as enabling and disabling
1760	  devices cause a bus reset and thereby disable remote DMA for all
1761	  devices, be sure to have the cable plugged and FireWire enabled on
1762	  the debugging host before booting the debug target for debugging.
1763
1764	  This code (~1k) is freed after boot. By then, the firewire stack
1765	  in charge of the OHCI-1394 controllers should be used instead.
