13 Say Y here if your target has the gdb-sh-stub
14 package from www.m17n.org (or any conforming standard LinuxSH BIOS)
15 in FLASH or EPROM. The kernel will use standard BIOS calls during
16 boot for various housekeeping tasks (including calls to read and
17 write characters to a system console, get a MAC address from an
18 on-board Ethernet interface, and shut down the hardware). Note this
19 does not work with machines with an existing operating system in
20 mask ROM and no flash (WindowsCE machines fall in this category).
21 If unsure, say N.

Paul Mundt9f14b842009-07-11 20:05:34 +090028 drops below a certain limit. Saying Y here will add overhead to
29 every function call and will therefore incur a major
30 performance hit. Most users should say N.

Paul Mundta6a311392006-09-27 18:22:14 +090035 help
36 If you say Y here the kernel will use a 4Kb stacksize for the
37 kernel stack attached to each process/thread. This facilitates
38 running more threads on a system and also reduces the pressure
39 on the VM subsystem for higher order allocations. This option
40 will also use IRQ stacks to compensate for the reduced stackspace.

Paul Mundt110ed282007-11-02 12:16:51 +090045 help
46 If you say Y here the kernel will use separate kernel stacks
47 for handling hard and soft interrupts. This can help avoid
48 overflowing the process kernel stacks.

56 This prints out a code trace of the instructions leading up to
57 the faulting instruction as a debugging aid. As this does grow
58 the kernel in size a bit, most users will want to say N here.

60 Those looking for more verbose debugging output should say Y.
