16 | Enables the display of the minimum amount of free stack which each | |
17 | task has ever had available in the sysrq-T and sysrq-P debug output. | |

25 | Unmap pages from the kernel linear mapping after free_pages(). | |
26 | This results in a large slowdown, but helps to find certain types | |

31 | bool "Hypervisor call instrumentation" | |

33 | help | |
34 | Adds code to keep track of the number of hypervisor calls made and | |
3dde6ad8 | 35 | the amount of time spent in hypervisor calls. Wall time spent in |
57852a85 MK |
36 | each call is always calculated, and if available CPU cycles spent |
37 | are also calculated. A directory named hcall_inst is added at the | |
38 | root of the debugfs filesystem. Within the hcall_inst directory | |
39 | are files that contain CPU specific call statistics. | |
40 | ||
41 | This option will add a small amount of overhead to all hypervisor | |
42 | calls. | |

93 | Make sure to enable also CONFIG_BOOTX_TEXT on Macs. Otherwise |
94 | nothing will appear on the screen (xmon writes directly to the | |
95 | framebuffer memory). | |
96 | The cmdline option 'xmon' or 'xmon=early' will drop into xmon | |
97 | very early during boot. 'xmon=on' will just enable the xmon | |
98 | debugger hooks. 'xmon=off' will disable the debugger hooks | |
99 | if CONFIG_XMON_DEFAULT is set. | |

100 | xmon will print a backtrace on the very first invocation. |
