Quoting Randy: "It seems sad that this patch sources Kconfig.marker, a 7-line file, 20-something times. Yes, you (we) don't want to put those 7 lines into 20-something different files, so sourcing is the right thing. However, what you did for avr32 seems more on the right track to me: make _one_ Instrumentation support menu that includes PROFILING, OPROFILE, KPROBES, and MARKERS and then use (source) that in all of the arches."

Say Y here to get to see options related to performance measurement,

system-wide debugging, and testing. This option alone does not add any

kernel code.

If you say N, all options in this submenu will be skipped and

disabled. If you're trying to debug the kernel itself, go see the

OProfile is a profiling system capable of profiling the

whole system, include the kernel, kernel modules, libraries,

and applications.

Kprobes allows you to trap at almost any kernel address and
|
|
execute a callback function. register_kprobe() establishes
|
|
a probepoint and specifies the callback. Kprobes is useful
|
|
for kernel debugging, non-intrusive instrumentation and testing.
|
|
If in doubt, say "N".
