24	  Write kernel log output directly into the VGA buffer or to a serial
25	  port.
26
27	  This is useful for kernel debugging when your machine crashes very
28	  early before the console code is initialized. For normal operation
29	  it is not recommended because it looks ugly and doesn't cooperate
30	  with klogd/syslogd or the X server. You should normally say N here,
31	  unless you want to debug such a crash.

40	  This is useful for kernel debugging when your machine crashes very

42	  it is not recommended because it looks ugly and doesn't cooperate

49	select EARLY_PRINTK_USB
50	help
51	  Write kernel log output directly into the xHCI debug port.
52
53	  One use for this feature is kernel debugging, for example when your
54	  machine crashes very early before the regular console code is
55	  initialized. Other uses include simpler, lockless logging instead of
56	  a full-blown printk console driver + klogd.
57
58	  For normal production environments this is normally not recommended,
59	  because it doesn't feed events into klogd/syslogd and doesn't try to
60	  print anything on the screen.
61
62	  You should normally say N here, unless you want to debug early
63	  crashes or need a very simple printk logging facility.

83	X86-only for now.
84
85	This option allows the user to tune the amount of TLB entries the
86	kernel flushes one-by-one instead of doing a full TLB flush. In
87	certain situations, the former is cheaper. This is controlled by the
88	tlb_flushall_shift knob under /sys/kernel/debug/x86. If you set it
89	to -1, the code flushes the whole TLB unconditionally. Otherwise,
90	for positive values of it, the kernel will use single TLB entry
91	invalidating instructions according to the following formula:
92
93	flush_entries <= active_tlb_entries / 2^tlb_flushall_shift
94
95	If in doubt, say "N".

103	  memory and add debugging code. On overflow always panic. And
104	  allow to enable IOMMU leak tracing. Can be disabled at boot
105	  time with iommu=noforce. This will also enable scatter gather
106	  list merging.  Currently not recommended for production
107	  code. When you use it make sure you have a big enough
108	  IOMMU/AGP aperture.  Most of the options enabled by this can
109	  be set more finegrained using the iommu= command line
110	  options. See Documentation/x86/x86_64/boot-options.rst for more

247	help
248	  This option enables the ORC (Oops Rewind Capability) unwinder for
249	  unwinding kernel stack traces.  It uses a custom data format which is
250	  a simplified version of the DWARF Call Frame Information standard.
251
252	  This unwinder is more accurate across interrupt entry frames than the
253	  frame pointer unwinder.  It also enables a 5-10% performance
254	  improvement across the entire kernel compared to frame pointers.
255
256	  Enabling this option will increase the kernel's runtime memory usage
257	  by roughly 2-4MB, depending on your kernel config.

263	  This option enables the frame pointer unwinder for unwinding kernel
264	  stack traces.
265
266	  The unwinder itself is fast and it uses less RAM than the ORC
267	  unwinder, but the kernel text size will grow by ~3% and the kernel's
268	  overall performance will degrade by roughly 5-10%.

276	  traces.  It scans the stack and reports every kernel text address it
277	  finds.  Some of the addresses it reports may be incorrect.
278
279	  While this option often produces false positives, it can still be
280	  useful in many cases.  Unlike the other unwinders, it has no runtime
281	  overhead.
