+config DEBUG_STACKOVERFLOW
+ bool "Check for stack overflows"
+ depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && PPC64
+ 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 && PPC64
+ 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 DEBUGGER
+ bool "Enable debugger hooks"
+ depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
+ help
+ Include in-kernel hooks for kernel debuggers. Unless you are
+ intending to debug the kernel, say N here.
+
+config KGDB
+ bool "Include kgdb kernel debugger"
+ depends on DEBUGGER && (BROKEN || PPC_GEN550 || 4xx)
+ select DEBUG_INFO
+ help
+ Include in-kernel hooks for kgdb, the Linux kernel source level
+ debugger. See <http://kgdb.sourceforge.net/> for more information.
+ Unless you are intending to debug the kernel, say N here.

+ depends on KGDB && 8xx || CPM2
+ help
+ If you enable this, all serial console messages will be sent
+ over the gdb stub.
+ If unsure, say N.
+
+config XMON
+ bool "Include xmon kernel debugger"
+ depends on DEBUGGER && !PPC_ISERIES
+ help
+ Include in-kernel hooks for the xmon kernel monitor/debugger.
+ Unless you are intending to debug the kernel, say N here.
+ Make sure to enable also CONFIG_BOOTX_TEXT on Macs. Otherwise
+ nothing will appear on the screen (xmon writes directly to the
+ framebuffer memory).
+ The cmdline option 'xmon' or 'xmon=early' will drop into xmon
+ very early during boot. 'xmon=on' will just enable the xmon
+ debugger hooks. 'xmon=off' will disable the debugger hooks
+ if CONFIG_XMON_DEFAULT is set.
+
+config XMON_DEFAULT
+ bool "Enable xmon by default"
+ depends on XMON
+ help
+ xmon is normally disabled unless booted with 'xmon=on'.
+ Use 'xmon=off' to disable xmon init during runtime.
+
+config IRQSTACKS
+ bool "Use separate kernel stacks when processing interrupts"
+ depends on PPC64
+ 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 BDI_SWITCH
+ bool "Include BDI-2000 user context switcher"
+ depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && PPC32
+ help
+ Include in-kernel support for the Abatron BDI2000 debugger.

+ machines, say N here.
