  6. ---help---
  7. If this option is disabled, you allow userspace (root) access to all
  8. of memory, including kernel and userspace memory. Accidental
  9. access to this is obviously disastrous, but specific access can
  10. be used by people debugging the kernel.
  11. If this option is switched on, the /dev/mem file only allows
  12. userspace access to memory mapped peripherals.
  13. If in doubt, say Y.

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

  23. If you say N here, the resulting kernel will be slightly smaller and
  24. faster. However, if neither FRAME_POINTER nor ARM_UNWIND are enabled,
  25. when a problem occurs with the kernel, the information that is

  31. help
  32. This option enables stack unwinding support in the kernel
  33. using the information automatically generated by the
  34. compiler. The resulting kernel image is slightly bigger but
  35. the performance is not affected. Currently, this feature
  36. only works with EABI compilers. If unsure say Y.

  43. help
  44. When a user program crashes due to an exception, the kernel can
  45. print a brief message explaining what the problem was. This is
  46. sometimes helpful for debugging but serves no purpose on a
  47. production system. Most people should say N here.
  48. In addition, you need to pass user_debug=N on the kernel command
  49. line to enable this feature. N consists of the sum of:
  50. 1 - undefined instruction events
  51. 2 - system calls
  52. 4 - invalid data aborts
  53. 8 - SIGSEGV faults
  54. 16 - SIGBUS faults

  60. Say Y here to include definitions of printascii, printch, printhex
  61. in the kernel. This is helpful if you are debugging code that
  62. executes before the console is initialized.
  63. Note that selecting this option will limit the kernel to a single
  64. UART definition, as specified below. Attempting to boot the kernel
  65. image on a different platform *will not work*, so this option should
  66. not be enabled for kernels that are intended to be portable.

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

  82. co-processor 14. This is known to work on the ARM9 style ICE
  83. channel and on the XScale with the PEEDI.

  85. is nothing connected to read from the DCC.
