This flag just specifies if the timestamp should 16 be included, not that the timestamp is recorded. 17 18 The behavior is also controlled by the kernel command line 19 parameter printk.time=1. See Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.rst 20 21config PRINTK_CALLER 22 bool "Show caller information on printks" 23 depends on PRINTK 24 help 25 Selecting this option causes printk() to add a caller "thread id" (if 26 in task context) or a caller "processor id" (if not in task context) 27 to every message. 28 29 This option is intended for environments where multiple threads 30 concurrently call printk() for many times, for it is difficult to 31 interpret without knowing where these lines (or sometimes individual 32 line which was divided into multiple lines due to race) came from. 33 34 Since toggling after boot makes the code racy, currently there is 35 no option to enable/disable at the kernel command line parameter or 36 sysfs interface. 37 38config STACKTRACE_BUILD_ID 39 bool "Show build ID information in stacktraces" 40 depends on PRINTK 41 help 42 Selecting this option adds build ID information for symbols in 43 stacktraces printed with the printk format '%p[SR]b'. 44 45 This option is intended for distros where debuginfo is not easily 46 accessible but can be downloaded given the build ID of the vmlinux or 47 kernel module where the function is located. 48 49config CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_DEFAULT 50 int "Default console loglevel (1-15)" 51 range 1 15 52 default "7" 53 help 54 Default loglevel to determine what will be printed on the console. 55 56 Setting a default here is equivalent to passing in loglevel=<x> in 57 the kernel bootargs. loglevel=<x> continues to override whatever 58 value is specified here as well. 59 60 Note: This does not affect the log level of un-prefixed printk() 61 usage in the kernel.

To change that, use loglevel=<x> in the kernel bootargs, 88 or pick a different CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_DEFAULT configuration value. 89 90config BOOT_PRINTK_DELAY 91 bool "Delay each boot printk message by N milliseconds" 92 depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && PRINTK && GENERIC_CALIBRATE_DELAY 93 help 94 This build option allows you to read kernel boot messages 95 by inserting a short delay after each one. The delay is 96 specified in milliseconds on the kernel command line, 97 using "boot_delay=N". 98 99 It is likely that you would also need to use "lpj=M" to preset 100 the "loops per jiffy" value. 101 See a previous boot log for the "lpj" value to use for your 102 system, and then set "lpj=M" before setting "boot_delay=N". 103 NOTE: Using this option may adversely affect SMP systems. 104 I.e., processors other than the first one may not boot up. 105 BOOT_PRINTK_DELAY also may cause LOCKUP_DETECTOR to detect 106 what it believes to be lockup conditions. 107 108config DYNAMIC_DEBUG 109 bool "Enable dynamic printk() support" 110 default n 111 depends on PRINTK 112 depends on (DEBUG_FS || PROC_FS) 113 select DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CORE 114 help 115 116 Compiles debug level messages into the kernel, which would not 117 otherwise be available at runtime. These messages can then be 118 enabled/disabled based on various levels of scope - per source file, 119 function, module, format string, and line number. This mechanism 120 implicitly compiles in all pr_debug() and dev_dbg() calls, which 121 enlarges the kernel text size by about 2%. 122 123 If a source file is compiled with DEBUG flag set, any 124 pr_debug() calls in it are enabled by default, but can be 125 disabled at runtime as below.

This is an 3037 indirect way for us to have B call resolve_symbol_wait() upon module 3038 load. This will eventually call find_symbol() which will eventually 3039 try to find the symbols used with find_exported_symbol_in_section(). 3040 find_exported_symbol_in_section() uses bsearch() so a binary search 3041 for each symbol. Binary search will at worst be O(log(n)) so the 3042 larger TEST_MODULE_KALLSYSMS the worse the search. 3043 3044 2) The selftests should load C first, before B. Upon B's load towards 3045 the end right before we call module B's init routine we get 3046 complete_formation() called on the module. That will first check 3047 for duplicate symbols with the call to verify_exported_symbols(). 3048 That is when we'll force iteration on module C's insane symbol list. 3049 Since it has 10 * KALLSYMS_NUMSYMS it means we can first test 3050 just loading B without C. The amount of time it takes to load C Vs 3051 B can give us an idea of the impact growth of the symbol space and 3052 give us projection. Module A only uses one symbol from B so to allow 3053 this scaling in module C to be proportional, if it used more symbols 3054 then the first test would be doing more and increasing just the 3055 search space would be slightly different. The last module, module D 3056 will just increase the search space by twice the number of symbols in 3057 C so to allow for full projects. 3058 3059 tools/testing/selftests/module/find_symbol.sh 3060 3061 The current defaults will incur a build delay of about 7 minutes 3062 on an x86_64 with only 8 cores.
