+ help
+ Set extended log support for netconsole message. If this option is
+ set, log messages are transmitted with extended metadata header in a

+ help
+ Set kernel release to be prepended to each netconsole message by
+ default. If this option is set, the kernel release is prepended into
+ the first field of every netconsole message, so, the netconsole
+ server/peer can easily identify what kernel release is logging each
