  6 config PRINTK_TIME

  8         depends on PRINTK
  9         help
 10           Selecting this option causes time stamps of the printk()
 11           messages to be added to the output of the syslog() system
 12           call and at the console.
 13 
 14           The timestamp is always recorded internally, and exported
 15           to /dev/kmsg. This flag just specifies if the timestamp should
 16           be included, not that the timestamp is recorded.
 17 
 18           The behavior is also controlled by the kernel command line
 19           parameter printk.time=1. See Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.rst

 21 config PRINTK_CALLER
 22         bool "Show caller information on printks"
 23         depends on PRINTK
 24         help
 25           Selecting this option causes printk() to add a caller "thread id" (if
 26           in task context) or a caller "processor id" (if not in task context)
 27           to every message.
 28 
 29           This option is intended for environments where multiple threads
 30           concurrently call printk() for many times, for it is difficult to
 31           interpret without knowing where these lines (or sometimes individual
 32           line which was divided into multiple lines due to race) came from.
 33 
 34           Since toggling after boot makes the code racy, currently there is
 35           no option to enable/disable at the kernel command line parameter or
 36           sysfs interface.

 42           Selecting this option adds build ID information for symbols in
 43           stacktraces printed with the printk format '%p[SR]b'.
 44 
 45           This option is intended for distros where debuginfo is not easily
 46           accessible but can be downloaded given the build ID of the vmlinux or
 47           kernel module where the function is located.

 57           the kernel bootargs. loglevel=<x> continues to override whatever
 58           value is specified here as well.
 59 
 60           Note: This does not affect the log level of un-prefixed printk()
 61           usage in the kernel. That is controlled by the MESSAGE_LOGLEVEL_DEFAULT

 72           will be used as the loglevel. IOW passing "quiet" will be the

 82           This was hard-coded to KERN_WARNING since at least 2.6.10 but folks
 83           that are auditing their logs closely may want to set it to a lower
 84           priority.
 85 
 86           Note: This does not affect what message level gets printed on the console
 87           by default. To change that, use loglevel=<x> in the kernel bootargs,
 88           or pick a different CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_DEFAULT configuration value.

 92         depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && PRINTK && GENERIC_CALIBRATE_DELAY
 93         help
 94           This build option allows you to read kernel boot messages
 95           by inserting a short delay after each one.  The delay is
 96           specified in milliseconds on the kernel command line,
 97           using "boot_delay=N".
 98 
 99           It is likely that you would also need to use "lpj=M" to preset
100           the "loops per jiffie" value.
101           See a previous boot log for the "lpj" value to use for your
102           system, and then set "lpj=M" before setting "boot_delay=N".
103           NOTE:  Using this option may adversely affect SMP systems.
104           I.e., processors other than the first one may not boot up.
105           BOOT_PRINTK_DELAY also may cause LOCKUP_DETECTOR to detect
106           what it believes to be lockup conditions.

115 
116           Compiles debug level messages into the kernel, which would not
117           otherwise be available at runtime. These messages can then be
118           enabled/disabled based on various levels of scope - per source file,
119           function, module, format string, and line number. This mechanism
120           implicitly compiles in all pr_debug() and dev_dbg() calls, which
121           enlarges the kernel text size by about 2%.
122 
123           If a source file is compiled with DEBUG flag set, any
124           pr_debug() calls in it are enabled by default, but can be
125           disabled at runtime as below.  Note that DEBUG flag is
126           turned on by many CONFIG_*DEBUG* options.
127 
128           Usage:
129 
130           Dynamic debugging is controlled via the 'dynamic_debug/control' file,
131           which is contained in the 'debugfs' filesystem or procfs.
132           Thus, the debugfs or procfs filesystem must first be mounted before
133           making use of this feature.
134           We refer the control file as: <debugfs>/dynamic_debug/control. This
135           file contains a list of the debug statements that can be enabled. The
136           format for each line of the file is:
137 
138                 filename:lineno [module]function flags format
139 
140           filename : source file of the debug statement
141           lineno : line number of the debug statement
142           module : module that contains the debug statement
143           function : function that contains the debug statement
144           flags : '=p' means the line is turned 'on' for printing
145           format : the format used for the debug statement
146 
147           From a live system:
148 
149                 nullarbor:~ # cat <debugfs>/dynamic_debug/control
150                 # filename:lineno [module]function flags format
151                 fs/aio.c:222 [aio]__put_ioctx =_ "__put_ioctx:\040freeing\040%p\012"
152                 fs/aio.c:248 [aio]ioctx_alloc =_ "ENOMEM:\040nr_events\040too\040high\012"
153                 fs/aio.c:1770 [aio]sys_io_cancel =_ "calling\040cancel\012"
154 
155           Example usage:
156 
157                 // enable the message at line 1603 of file svcsock.c
158                 nullarbor:~ # echo -n 'file svcsock.c line 1603 +p' >

186           when you want to tie dynamic debug to your kernel modules with
187           DYNAMIC_DEBUG_MODULE defined for each of them, especially for

1361          This feature enables the kernel to prove that all locking
1362          that occurs in the kernel runtime is mathematically
1363          correct: that under no circumstance could an arbitrary (and
1364          not yet triggered) combination of observed locking
1365          sequences (on an arbitrary number of CPUs, running an
1366          arbitrary number of tasks and interrupt contexts) cause a
1367          deadlock.
1368 
1369          In short, this feature enables the kernel to report locking
1370          related deadlocks before they actually occur.
1371 
1372          The proof does not depend on how hard and complex a
1373          deadlock scenario would be to trigger: how many
1374          participant CPUs, tasks and irq-contexts would be needed
1375          for it to trigger. The proof also does not depend on
1376          timing: if a race and a resulting deadlock is possible
1377          theoretically (no matter how unlikely the race scenario
1378          is), it will be proven so and will immediately be
1379          reported by the kernel (once the event is observed that
1380          makes the deadlock theoretically possible).
1381 
1382          If a deadlock is impossible (i.e. the locking rules, as
1383          observed by the kernel, are mathematically correct), the
1384          kernel reports nothing.
1385 
1386          NOTE: this feature can also be enabled for rwlocks, mutexes
1387          and rwsems - in which case all dependencies between these
1388          different locking variants are observed and mapped too, and
1389          the proof of observed correctness is also maintained for an
1390          arbitrary combination of these separate locking variants.

1856           If you want to debug problems which hang or crash the kernel early

1858           this feature to remotely access the memory of the crashed machine
1859           over FireWire. This employs remote DMA as part of the OHCI1394
1860           specification which is now the standard for FireWire controllers.
1861 
1862           With remote DMA, you can monitor the printk buffer remotely using

1866           Usage:

1869           all OHCI1394 controllers which are found in the PCI config space.
1870 
1871           As all changes to the FireWire bus such as enabling and disabling
1872           devices cause a bus reset and thereby disable remote DMA for all
1873           devices, be sure to have the cable plugged and FireWire enabled on
1874           the debugging host before booting the debug target for debugging.
1875 
1876           This code (~1k) is freed after boot. By then, the firewire stack
