| config PPC_DISABLE_WERROR |
| bool "Don't build arch/powerpc code with -Werror" |
| default n |
| help |
| This option tells the compiler NOT to build the code under |
| arch/powerpc with the -Werror flag (which means warnings |
| are treated as errors). |
| |
| Only enable this if you are hitting a build failure in the |
| arch/powerpc code caused by a warning, and you don't feel |
| inclined to fix it. |

| config PRINT_STACK_DEPTH |
| int "Stack depth to print" if DEBUG_KERNEL |
| default 64 |
| help |
| This option allows you to set the stack depth that the kernel |
| prints in stack traces. This can be useful if your display is |
| too small and stack traces cause important information to |
| scroll off the screen. |
| |
| config DEBUG_STACKOVERFLOW |
| bool "Check for stack overflows" |

| 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. |

| depends on SMP |
| default n |
| ---help--- |
| Say Y to verify that the per_cpu map being accessed has |

| and decreases performance. |
| |
| Say N if unsure. |
| |
| config HCALL_STATS |
| bool "Hypervisor call instrumentation" |
| depends on PPC_PSERIES && DEBUG_FS && TRACEPOINTS |
| 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 PPC_EMULATED_STATS |
| bool "Emulated instructions tracking" |
| depends on DEBUG_FS |
| help |
| Adds code to keep track of the number of instructions that are |
| emulated by the in-kernel emulator. Counters for the various classes |
| of emulated instructions are available under |
| powerpc/emulated_instructions/ in the root of the debugfs file |
| system. Optionally (controlled by |
| powerpc/emulated_instructions/do_warn in debugfs), rate-limited |
| warnings can be printed to the console when instructions are |
| emulated. |

| 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. |

| for your processor/board combination. Those facilities are hacks |
| intended to debug problems early during boot, this should not be |
| enabled in a production kernel. |
| Note that enabling this will also cause the kernel default log level |
| to be pushed to max automatically very early during boot |
