13 bool "Kprobes"
14 depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && PPC64
15 help
16 Kprobes allows you to trap at almost any kernel address and
17 execute a callback function. register_kprobe() establishes
18 a probepoint and specifies the callback. Kprobes is useful
19 for kernel debugging, non-intrusive instrumentation and testing.
20 If in doubt, say "N".
