| 9 | If this option is disabled, you allow userspace (root) access to all |
| 10 | of memory, including kernel and userspace memory. Accidental |
| 11 | access to this is obviously disastrous, but specific access can |
| 12 | be used by people debugging the kernel. |
| 13 | |
| 14 | If this option is switched on, the /dev/mem file only allows |
| 15 | userspace access to memory mapped peripherals. |

| 17 | If in doubt, say Y. |

| 22 | Write kernel log output directly into the ocd or to a serial port. |
| 23 | |
| 24 | This is useful for kernel debugging when your machine crashes very |
| 25 | early before the console code is initialized. For normal operation |
| 26 | it is not recommended because it looks ugly and doesn't cooperate |
| 27 | with klogd/syslogd or the X server. You should normally N here, |
| 28 | unless you want to debug such a crash. |

| 35 | Say Y here to include definitions of printascii, printch, printhex |
| 36 | in the kernel. This is helpful if you are debugging code that |
| 37 | executes before the console is initialized. |

| 44 | Say Y here if you want the debug print routines to direct their |
| 45 | output to the UniCore On-Chip-Debugger channel using CP #1. |
