From 74ce8322bf8843e6fd04e081d361c107bcf73564 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mike Frysinger Date: Wed, 21 Nov 2007 23:50:49 +0800 Subject: Blackfin arch: split debug stuff off into Kconfig.debug like everyone else Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger Signed-off-by: Bryan Wu --- arch/blackfin/Kconfig.debug | 178 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 178 insertions(+) create mode 100644 arch/blackfin/Kconfig.debug (limited to 'arch/blackfin/Kconfig.debug') diff --git a/arch/blackfin/Kconfig.debug b/arch/blackfin/Kconfig.debug new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..59b87a483c68 --- /dev/null +++ b/arch/blackfin/Kconfig.debug @@ -0,0 +1,178 @@ +menu "Kernel hacking" + +source "lib/Kconfig.debug" + +config DEBUG_MMRS + bool "Generate Blackfin MMR tree" + select DEBUG_FS + help + Create a tree of Blackfin MMRs via the debugfs tree. If + you enable this, you will find all MMRs laid out in the + /sys/kernel/debug/blackfin/ directory where you can read/write + MMRs directly from userspace. This is obviously just a debug + feature. + +config DEBUG_HWERR + bool "Hardware error interrupt debugging" + depends on DEBUG_KERNEL + help + When enabled, the hardware error interrupt is never disabled, and + will happen immediately when an error condition occurs.

This will + ensure that icache is what SDRAM says it should be by doing a + byte wise comparison between SDRAM and instruction cache. This + also relocates the irq_panic() function to L1 memory, (which is + un-cached). + +config DEBUG_HUNT_FOR_ZERO + bool "Catch NULL pointer reads/writes" + default y + help + Say Y here to catch reads/writes to anywhere in the memory range + from 0x0000 - 0x0FFF (the first 4k) of memory. This is useful in + catching common programming errors such as NULL pointer dereferences. + + Misbehaving applications will be killed (generate a SEGV) while the + kernel will trigger a panic. + + Enabling this option will take up an extra entry in CPLB table. + Otherwise, there is no extra overhead. + +config DEBUG_BFIN_HWTRACE_ON + bool "Turn on Blackfin's Hardware Trace" + default y + help + All Blackfins include a Trace Unit which stores a history of the last + 16 changes in program flow taken by the program sequencer. The history + allows the user to recreate the program sequencer’s recent path. This + can be handy when an application dies - we print out the execution + path of how it got to the offending instruction. + + By turning this off, you may save a tiny amount of power. + +choice + prompt "Omit loop Tracing" + default DEBUG_BFIN_HWTRACE_COMPRESSION_OFF + depends on DEBUG_BFIN_HWTRACE_ON + help + The trace buffer can be configured to omit recording of changes in + program flow that match either the last entry or one of the last + two entries. Omitting one of these entries from the record prevents + the trace buffer from overflowing because of any sort of loop (for, do + while, etc) in the program. + + Because zero-overhead Hardware loops are not recorded in the trace buffer, + this feature can be used to prevent trace overflow from loops that + are nested four deep. + +config DEBUG_BFIN_HWTRACE_COMPRESSION_OFF + bool "Trace all Loops" + help + The trace buffer records all changes of flow + +config DEBUG_BFIN_HWTRACE_COMPRESSION_ONE + bool "Compress single-level loops" + help + The trace buffer does not record single loops - helpful if trace + is spinning on a while or do loop. + +config DEBUG_BFIN_HWTRACE_COMPRESSION_TWO + bool "Compress two-level loops" + help + The trace buffer does not record loops two levels deep.

After enabling this + feature, you must add "earlyprintk=serial,uart0,57600" to the + command line (bootargs).
