  menu "Kernel hacking"
  
  source "lib/Kconfig.debug"
  
  # RMK wants arm kernels compiled with frame pointers so hardwire this to y.
  # If you know what you are doing and are willing to live without stack
  # traces, you can get a slightly smaller kernel by setting this option to
  # n, but then RMK will have to kill you ;).
  config FRAME_POINTER
  	bool
  	default y
  	help
  	  If you say N here, the resulting kernel will be slightly smaller and
  	  faster. However, when a problem occurs with the kernel, the
  	  information that is reported is severely limited. Most people
  	  should say Y here.
  
  config DEBUG_USER
  	bool "Verbose user fault messages"
  	help
  	  When a user program crashes due to an exception, the kernel can
  	  print a brief message explaining what the problem was. This is
  	  sometimes helpful for debugging but serves no purpose on a
  	  production system. Most people should say N here.
  
  config DEBUG_WAITQ
  	bool "Wait queue debugging"
  	depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
  
  config DEBUG_ERRORS
  	bool "Verbose kernel error messages"
  	depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
  	help
  	  This option controls verbose debugging information which can be
  	  printed when the kernel detects an internal error. This debugging
  	  information is useful to kernel hackers when tracking down problems,
  	  but mostly meaningless to other people. It's safe to say Y unless
  	  you are concerned with the code size or don't want to see these
  	  messages.
  
  # These options are only for real kernel hackers who want to get their hands dirty.
  config DEBUG_LL
  	bool "Kernel low-level debugging functions"
  	depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
  	help
  	  Say Y here to include definitions of printascii, printchar, printhex
  	  in the kernel.  This is helpful if you are debugging code that
  	  executes before the console is initialized.
