5 config STRICT_DEVMEM

6 bool "Filter access to /dev/mem"

7 depends on MMU

8 ---help---

9 If this option is disabled, you allow userspace (root) access to all

10 of memory, including kernel and userspace memory. Accidental

11 access to this is obviously disastrous, but specific access can

12 be used by people debugging the kernel.

13

14 If this option is switched on, the /dev/mem file only allows

15 userspace access to memory mapped peripherals.

16

17 If in doubt, say Y.

19 # RMK wants arm kernels compiled with frame pointers or stack unwinding.

20 # If you know what you are doing and are willing to live without stack

21 # traces, you can get a slightly smaller kernel by setting this option to

22 # n, but then RMK will have to kill you ;).

23 config FRAME_POINTER

24 bool

25 depends on !THUMB2_KERNEL

26 default y if !ARM_UNWIND || FUNCTION_GRAPH_TRACER

27 help

28 If you say N here, the resulting kernel will be slightly smaller and

29 faster. However, if neither FRAME_POINTER nor ARM_UNWIND are enabled,

30 when a problem occurs with the kernel, the information that is

31 reported is severely limited.

32

33 config ARM_UNWIND

34 bool "Enable stack unwinding support (EXPERIMENTAL)"

35 depends on AEABI && EXPERIMENTAL

36 default y

37 help

38 This option enables stack unwinding support in the kernel

39 using the information automatically generated by the

40 compiler. The resulting kernel image is slightly bigger but

41 the performance is not affected. Currently, this feature

42 only works with EABI compilers. If unsure say Y.

49 config DEBUG_USER

50 bool "Verbose user fault messages"

51 help

52 When a user program crashes due to an exception, the kernel can

53 print a brief message explaining what the problem was. This is

54 sometimes helpful for debugging but serves no purpose on a

55 production system. Most people should say N here.

56

57 In addition, you need to pass user_debug=N on the kernel command

58 line to enable this feature. N consists of the sum of:

59

60 1 - undefined instruction events

61 2 - system calls

62 4 - invalid data aborts

63 8 - SIGSEGV faults

64 16 - SIGBUS faults

66 # These options are only for real kernel hackers who want to get their hands dirty.

67 config DEBUG_LL

68 bool "Kernel low-level debugging functions (read help!)"

69 depends on DEBUG_KERNEL

70 help

71 Say Y here to include definitions of printascii, printch, printhex

72 in the kernel. This is helpful if you are debugging code that

73 executes before the console is initialized.

74

75 Note that selecting this option will limit the kernel to a single

76 UART definition, as specified below. Attempting to boot the kernel

77 image on a different platform *will not work*, so this option should

78 not be enabled for kernels that are intended to be portable.

87 Say Y here if your platform doesn't provide a UART option

88 below. This relies on your platform choosing the right UART

89 definition internally in order for low-level debugging to

90 work.

92 config DEBUG_ICEDCC

94 help

95 Say Y here if you want the debug print routines to direct

96 their output to the EmbeddedICE macrocell's DCC channel using

97 co-processor 14. This is known to work on the ARM9 style ICE

98 channel and on the XScale with the PEEDI.

99

100 Note that the system will appear to hang during boot if there

101 is nothing connected to read from the DCC.
