306 | help | ||
307 | kmemtrace provides tracing for slab allocator functions, such as | ||
308 | kmalloc, kfree, kmem_cache_alloc, kmem_cache_free etc.. Collected | ||
309 | data is then fed to the userspace application in order to analyse | ||
310 | allocation hotspots, internal fragmentation and so on, making it | ||
311 | possible to see how well an allocator performs, as well as debug | ||
312 | and profile kernel code. | ||
313 | |||
314 | This requires an userspace application to use. See | ||
315 | Documentation/trace/kmemtrace.txt for more information. | ||
316 | |||
317 | Saying Y will make the kernel somewhat larger and slower. However, | ||
318 | if you disable kmemtrace at run-time or boot-time, the performance | ||
319 | impact is minimal (depending on the arch the kernel is built for). | ||
