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

|
|
If in doubt, say Y.

Write kernel log output directly into the ocd or to a serial port.

This is useful for kernel debugging when your machine crashes very
|
||
|
|
early before the console code is initialized. For normal operation
|
||
|
|
it is not recommended because it looks ugly and doesn't cooperate
|
||
|
|
with klogd/syslogd or the X server. You should normally N here,
|
||
|
|
unless you want to debug such a crash.

Say Y here to include definitions of printascii, printch, printhex
|

in the kernel. This is helpful if you are debugging code that

executes before the console is initialized.

output to the UniCore On-Chip-Debugger channel using CP #1.
