25 This option allows system calls to be traced to the console. It also
26 aids in detecting kernel stack underflow. It is useful for debugging
27 early-userland problems (e.g. init incurring fatal exceptions.)

39 If you say Y here the resulting kernel image will be slightly larger
40 and slower, but it will give very useful debugging information.
41 If you don't debug the kernel, you can say N, but we may not be able
42 to solve problems without frame pointers.
