55 help
56 Include support for sched_trace_log_messageg(), which is used to
57 implement TRACE(). If disabled, no TRACE() messages will be included
58 in the kernel, and no overheads due to debugging statements will be
59 incurred by the scheduler. Disable if the overhead is not acceptable
60 (e.g. benchmarking).
61
62 Say Yes for debugging.
63 Say No for overhead tracing.

70 help
71
72 Select the amount of memory needed per for the TRACE() buffer, as a
73 power of two. The TRACE() buffer is global and statically allocated. If
74 the buffer is too small, there will be holes in the TRACE() log if the
75 buffer-flushing task is starved.
76
77 The default should be sufficient for most systems. Increase the buffer
78 size if the log contains holes. Reduce the buffer size when running on
79 a memory-constrained system.
80
81 Examples: 14 => 16KB
82 18 => 256KB
83 20 => 1MB
84
85 This buffer is exported to usespace using a misc device as
86 'litmus/log'. On a system with default udev rules, a corresponding
87 character device node should be created at /dev/litmus/log. The buffer
88 can be flushed using cat, e.g., 'cat /dev/litmus/log > my_log_file.txt'.

99 to each message in the debug log. Enable this to aid in figuring out
100 what was called in which order. The downside is that it adds a lot of
101 clutter.
