4 | This is a generic journalling layer for block devices. It is | ||
5 | currently used by the ext3 file system, but it could also be | ||
6 | used to add journal support to other file systems or block | ||
7 | devices such as RAID or LVM. | ||
8 | |||
9 | If you are using the ext3 file system, you need to say Y here. | ||
10 | If you are not using ext3 then you will probably want to say N. | ||
11 | |||
12 | To compile this device as a module, choose M here: the module will be | ||
13 | called jbd. If you are compiling ext3 into the kernel, you | ||
14 | cannot compile this code as a module. | ||

19 | help | ||
20 | If you are using the ext3 journaled file system (or potentially any | ||
21 | other file system/device using JBD), this option allows you to | ||
22 | enable debugging output while the system is running, in order to | ||
23 | help track down any problems you are having. By default the | ||
24 | debugging output will be turned off. | ||
25 | |||
26 | If you select Y here, then you will be able to turn on debugging | ||
27 | with "echo N > /sys/kernel/debug/jbd/jbd-debug", where N is a | ||
28 | number between 1 and 5, the higher the number, the more debugging | ||
29 | output is generated. To turn debugging off again, do | ||
30 | "echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/jbd/jbd-debug". | ||
