11 bool "Early printk" if EXPERT
12 depends on SYS_HAS_EARLY_PRINTK
15 This option enables special console drivers which allow the kernel
16 to print messages very early in the bootup process.
18 This is useful for kernel debugging when your machine crashes very
19 early before the console code is initialized. For normal operation,
20 it is not recommended because it looks ugly on some machines and
21 doesn't cooperate with an X server. You should normally say N here,
22 unless you want to debug such a crash.

37 bool "Built-in kernel command line"
40 For most systems, it is firmware or second stage bootloader that
41 by default specifies the kernel command line options. However,
42 it might be necessary or advantageous to either override the
43 default kernel command line or add a few extra options to it.
44 For such cases, this option allows you to hardcode your own
45 command line options directly into the kernel. For that, you
46 should choose 'Y' here, and fill in the extra boot arguments
49 The built-in options will be concatenated to the default command
50 line if CMDLINE_OVERRIDE is set to 'N'. Otherwise, the default
51 command line will be ignored and replaced by the built-in string.
53 Most MIPS systems will normally expect 'N' here and rely upon
54 the command line from the firmware or the second-stage bootloader.
57 string "Default kernel command string"
58 depends on CMDLINE_BOOL
61 On some platforms, there is currently no way for the boot loader to
62 pass arguments to the kernel. For these platforms, and for the cases
63 when you want to add some extra options to the command line or ignore
64 the default command line, you can supply some command-line options at
65 build time by entering them here. In other cases you can specify
66 kernel args so that you don't have to set them up in board prom
67 initialization routines.
69 For more information, see the CMDLINE_BOOL and CMDLINE_OVERRIDE
72 config CMDLINE_OVERRIDE
73 bool "Built-in command line overrides firmware arguments"
75 depends on CMDLINE_BOOL
77 By setting this option to 'Y' you will have your kernel ignore
78 command line arguments from firmware or second stage bootloader.
79 Instead, the built-in command line will be used exclusively.
81 Normally, you will choose 'N' here.

92 bool "Enable compressed kernel support debugging"
93 depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && SYS_SUPPORTS_ZBOOT
96 If you want to add compressed kernel support to a new board, and the
97 board supports uart16550 compatible serial port, please select
98 SYS_SUPPORTS_ZBOOT_UART16550 for your board and enable this option to
101 If your board doesn't support uart16550 compatible serial port, you
102 can try to select SYS_SUPPORTS_ZBOOT and use the other methods to
103 debug it. for example, add a new serial port support just as
104 arch/mips/boot/compressed/uart-16550.c does.
106 After the compressed kernel support works, please disable this option
