| |
| Compiles debug level messages into the kernel, which would not |
| otherwise be available at runtime. These messages can then be |
| enabled/disabled based on various levels of scope - per source file, |
| function, module, format string, and line number. This mechanism |
| implicitly compiles in all pr_debug() and dev_dbg() calls, which |
| enlarges the kernel text size by about 2%. |
| |
| If a source file is compiled with DEBUG flag set, any |
| pr_debug() calls in it are enabled by default, but can be |
| disabled at runtime as below. Note that DEBUG flag is |
| turned on by many CONFIG_*DEBUG* options. |
| |
| Usage: |
| |
| Dynamic debugging is controlled via the 'dynamic_debug/control' file, |
| which is contained in the 'debugfs' filesystem or procfs. |
| Thus, the debugfs or procfs filesystem must first be mounted before |
| making use of this feature. |
| We refer the control file as: <debugfs>/dynamic_debug/control. This |
| file contains a list of the debug statements that can be enabled. The |
| format for each line of the file is: |
| |
| filename:lineno [module]function flags format |
| |
| filename : source file of the debug statement |
| lineno : line number of the debug statement |
| module : module that contains the debug statement |
| function : function that contains the debug statement |
| flags : '=p' means the line is turned 'on' for printing |
| format : the format used for the debug statement |
| |
| From a live system: |
| |
| nullarbor:~ # cat <debugfs>/dynamic_debug/control |
| # filename:lineno [module]function flags format |
| fs/aio.c:222 [aio]__put_ioctx =_ "__put_ioctx:\040freeing\040%p\012" |
| fs/aio.c:248 [aio]ioctx_alloc =_ "ENOMEM:\040nr_events\040too\040high\012" |
| fs/aio.c:1770 [aio]sys_io_cancel =_ "calling\040cancel\012" |
| |
| Example usage: |
| |
| // enable the message at line 1603 of file svcsock.c |
| nullarbor:~ # echo -n 'file svcsock.c line 1603 +p' > |
| <debugfs>/dynamic_debug/control |
| |
| // enable all the messages in file svcsock.c |
| nullarbor:~ # echo -n 'file svcsock.c +p' > |
| <debugfs>/dynamic_debug/control |
| |
| // enable all the messages in the NFS server module |
| nullarbor:~ # echo -n 'module nfsd +p' > |
| <debugfs>/dynamic_debug/control |
| |
| // enable all 12 messages in the function svc_process() |
| nullarbor:~ # echo -n 'func svc_process +p' > |
| <debugfs>/dynamic_debug/control |
| |
| // disable all 12 messages in the function svc_process() |

| During linktime or runtime, some sections are dropped; |

| most likely result in an oops. |
| In the code, functions and variables are annotated with |
| __init,, etc. (see the full list in include/linux/init.h), |
| which results in the code/data being placed in specific sections. |
| The section mismatch analysis is always performed after a full |
| kernel build, and enabling this option causes the following |
| additional steps to occur: |
| - Add the option -fno-inline-functions-called-once to gcc commands. |
| When inlining a function annotated with __init in a non-init |
| function, we would lose the section information and thus |
| the analysis would not catch the illegal reference. |
| This option tells gcc to inline less (but it does result in |
| a larger kernel). |
| - Run the section mismatch analysis for each module/built-in.o file. |
| When we run the section mismatch analysis on vmlinux.o, we |
| lose valuable information about where the mismatch was |
| introduced. |
| Running the analysis for each module/built-in.o file |
| tells where the mismatch happens much closer to the |
| source. The drawback is that the same mismatch is |
| reported at least twice. |

| In short, this feature enables the kernel to report locking |

| The proof does not depend on how hard and complex a |
| deadlock scenario would be to trigger: how many |
| participant CPUs, tasks and irq-contexts would be needed |
| for it to trigger. The proof also does not depend on |
| timing: if a race and a resulting deadlock is possible |
| theoretically (no matter how unlikely the race scenario |
| is), it will be proven so and will immediately be |
| reported by the kernel (once the event is observed that |
| makes the deadlock theoretically possible). |

| |
| Conventionally, block device numbers are allocated from |

| may introduce non-contiguous block device numbers. This |
| option forces most block device numbers to be allocated from |
| the extended space and spreads them to discover kernel or |

| device number allocation. |
| |
| Note that turning on this debug option shuffles all the |
| device numbers for all IDE and SCSI devices including libata |

| bool "Remote debugging over FireWire early on boot" |
| depends on PCI && X86 |
| help |
| If you want to debug problems which hang or crash the kernel early |
| on boot and the crashing machine has a FireWire port, you can use |
| this feature to remotely access the memory of the crashed machine |
| over FireWire. This employs remote DMA as part of the OHCI1394 |
| specification which is now the standard for FireWire controllers. |
| |
| With remote DMA, you can monitor the printk buffer remotely using |
| firescope and access all memory below 4GB using fireproxy from gdb. |
| Even controlling a kernel debugger is possible using remote DMA. |
| |
| Usage: |
| |
| If ohci1394_dma=early is used as boot parameter, it will initialize |
| all OHCI1394 controllers which are found in the PCI config space. |
| |
| As all changes to the FireWire bus such as enabling and disabling |
| devices cause a bus reset and thereby disable remote DMA for all |
| devices, be sure to have the cable plugged and FireWire enabled on |
| the debugging host before booting the debug target for debugging. |
| |
| This code (~1k) is freed after boot. By then, the firewire stack |
| in charge of the OHCI-1394 controllers should be used instead. |

| example, this enables cow_user_page() to check that the source page is |
