config TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT
def_bool y
source "lib/Kconfig.debug"
config SH_STANDARD_BIOS
bool "Use LinuxSH standard BIOS"
depends on SUPERH32
help
Say Y here if your target has the gdb-sh-stub
package from www.m17n.org (or any conforming standard LinuxSH BIOS)
in FLASH or EPROM. The kernel will use standard BIOS calls during
boot for various housekeeping tasks (including calls to read and
write characters to a system console, get a MAC address from an
on-board Ethernet interface, and shut down the hardware). Note this
does not work with machines with an existing operating system in
mask ROM and no flash (WindowsCE machines fall in this category).
If unsure, say N.
config EARLY_SCIF_CONSOLE
bool "Use early SCIF console"
help
This enables an early console using a fixed SCIF port. This can
be used by platforms that are either not running the SH
standard BIOS, or do not wish to use the BIOS callbacks for the
serial I/O.

config EARLY_PRINTK
bool "Early printk support"
depends on SH_STANDARD_BIOS || EARLY_SCIF_CONSOLE
help
Say Y here to redirect kernel printk messages to the serial port
used by the SH-IPL bootloader, starting very early in the boot
process and ending when the kernel's serial console is initialised.
This option is only useful porting the kernel to a new machine,
when the kernel may crash or hang before the serial console is
initialised. If unsure, say N.
On devices that are running SH-IPL and want to keep the port
initialization consistent while not using the BIOS callbacks,
select both the EARLY_SCIF_CONSOLE and SH_STANDARD_BIOS, using
the kernel command line option to toggle back and forth.
config DEBUG_BOOTMEM
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
bool "Debug BOOTMEM initialization"
config DEBUG_STACKOVERFLOW
bool "Check for stack overflows"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && SUPERH32
help
This option will cause messages to be printed if free stack space
drops below a certain limit.
config DEBUG_STACK_USAGE
bool "Stack utilization instrumentation"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
help
Enables the display of the minimum amount of free stack which each
task has ever had available in the sysrq-T and sysrq-P debug output.
This option will slow down process creation somewhat.
config 4KSTACKS
bool "Use 4Kb for kernel stacks instead of 8Kb"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && (MMU || BROKEN) && !PAGE_SIZE_64KB
help
If you say Y here the kernel will use a 4Kb stacksize for the
kernel stack attached to each process/thread. This facilitates
running more threads on a system and also reduces the pressure
on the VM subsystem for higher order allocations. This option
will also use IRQ stacks to compensate for the reduced stackspace.
config IRQSTACKS
bool "Use separate kernel stacks when processing interrupts"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && SUPERH32
help
If you say Y here the kernel will use separate kernel stacks
for handling hard and soft interrupts. This can help avoid
overflowing the process kernel stacks.
config DUMP_CODE
bool "Show disassembly of nearby code in register dumps"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && SUPERH32
default y if DEBUG_BUGVERBOSE
default n
help
This prints out a code trace of the instructions leading up to
the faulting instruction as a debugging aid. As this does grow
the kernel in size a bit, most users will want to say N here.
Those looking for more verbose debugging output should say Y.
config SH_NO_BSS_INIT
bool "Avoid zeroing BSS (to speed-up startup on suitable platforms)"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
default n
help
If running in painfully slow environments, such as an RTL
simulation or from remote memory via SHdebug, where the memory
can already be gauranteed to ber zeroed on boot, say Y.
For all other cases, say N. If this option seems perplexing, or
you aren't sure, say N.
config MORE_COMPILE_OPTIONS
bool "Add any additional compile options"
help
If you want to add additional CFLAGS to the kernel build, enable this
option and then enter what you would like to add in the next question.
Note however that -g is already appended with the selection of KGDB.
config COMPILE_OPTIONS
string "Additional compile arguments"
depends on MORE_COMPILE_OPTIONS
config SH64_SR_WATCH
bool "Debug: set SR.WATCH to enable hardware watchpoints and trace"
depends on SUPERH64
config POOR_MANS_STRACE
bool "Debug: enable rudimentary strace facility"
depends on SUPERH64
help
This option allows system calls to be traced to the console. It also
aids in detecting kernel stack underflow. It is useful for debugging
early-userland problems (e.g. init incurring fatal exceptions.)
