So Ingo finally did figure out why UML broke with this option: UML passes gcc the -fno-unit-at-a-time flag, and apparently that wreaks havoc with gcc's inlining. We could turn off -fno-unit-at-a-time for UML for gcc4+ (which is what x86 does), but there's bad blood about this whole option, and it does show that the thing is just fragile as heck. So let tempers cool, and disable the thing, and we can revisit the decision later.

The /dev/mem file by default only allows userspace access to PCI

space and the BIOS code and data regions. This is sufficient for

dosemu and X and all common users of /dev/mem. With this config

option, you allow userspace access to all of memory, including

This is useful for kernel debugging when your machine crashes very

it is not recommended because it looks ugly and doesn't cooperate

If you say Y here the kernel will use a 4Kb stacksize for the

kernel stack attached to each process/thread. This facilitates

running more threads on a system and also reduces the pressure

This option determines if the kernel forces gcc to inline the functions
|
|
developers have marked 'inline'. Doing so takes away freedom from gcc to
|
|
do what it thinks is best, which is desirable for the gcc 3.x series of
|
|
compilers. The gcc 4.x series have a rewritten inlining algorithm and
|
|
disabling this option will generate a smaller kernel there. Hopefully
|
|
this algorithm is so good that allowing gcc4 to make the decision can
|
|
become the default in the future, until then this option is there to
|
|
test gcc for this.
