help
|
|
Mark the kernel read-only data as write-protected in the pagetables,
|
|
in order to catch accidental (and incorrect) writes to such const data.
|
|
This option may have a slight performance impact because a portion
|
|
of the kernel code won't be covered by a 2MB TLB anymore.
|
|
If in doubt, say "N".

help
|
|
Force the IOMMU to on even when you have less than 4GB of
|
|
memory and add debugging code. On overflow always panic. And
|
|
allow to enable IOMMU leak tracing. Can be disabled at boot
|
|
time with iommu=noforce. This will also enable scatter gather
|
|
list merging. Currently not recommended for production
|
|
code. When you use it make sure you have a big enough
|
|
IOMMU/AGP aperture. Most of the options enabled by this can
|
|
be set more finegrained using the iommu= command line
|
|
options. See Documentation/x86_64/boot-options.txt for more
|
|
details.

Add a simple leak tracer to the IOMMU code. This is useful when you

are debugging a buggy device driver that leaks IOMMU mappings.

Enables the display of the minimum amount of free stack which each

This option will slow down process creation somewhat.
