+config EARLY_PRINTK

+ default y
+ help
+ Write kernel log output directly into the VGA buffer or to a serial
+ port.
+
+ This is useful for kernel debugging when your machine crashes very
+ early before the console code is initialized. For normal operation
+ it is not recommended because it looks ugly and doesn't cooperate
+ with klogd/syslogd or the X server. You should normally N here,
+ unless you want to debug such a crash.
+
+config DEBUG_STACKOVERFLOW
+ bool "Check for stack overflows"
+ depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
+ help
+ This option will cause messages to be printed if free stack space
+ drops below a certain limit.
+
+config 16KSTACKS
+ bool "Use 16Kb for kernel stacks instead of 8Kb"
+ help
+ If you say Y here the kernel will use a 16Kb stacksize for the
+ kernel stack attached to each process/thread. The default is 8K.
+ This increases the resident kernel footprint and will cause less
+ threads to run on the system and also increase the pressure
+ on the VM subsystem for higher order allocations.
