9 depends on SYS_HAS_EARLY_PRINTK
12 This option enables special console drivers which allow the kernel
13 to print messages very early in the bootup process.
15 This is useful for kernel debugging when your machine crashes very
16 early before the console code is initialized. For normal operation,
17 it is not recommended because it looks ugly on some machines and
18 doesn't cooperate with an X server. You should normally say N here,
19 unless you want to debug such a crash.

34 bool "Built-in kernel command line"
36 For most systems, it is firmware or second stage bootloader that
37 by default specifies the kernel command line options. However,
38 it might be necessary or advantageous to either override the
39 default kernel command line or add a few extra options to it.
40 For such cases, this option allows you to hardcode your own
41 command line options directly into the kernel. For that, you
42 should choose 'Y' here, and fill in the extra boot arguments
45 The built-in options will be concatenated to the default command
46 line if CMDLINE_OVERRIDE is set to 'N'. Otherwise, the default
47 command line will be ignored and replaced by the built-in string.
49 Most MIPS systems will normally expect 'N' here and rely upon
50 the command line from the firmware or the second-stage bootloader.
53 string "Default kernel command string"
54 depends on CMDLINE_BOOL
56 On some platforms, there is currently no way for the boot loader to
57 pass arguments to the kernel. For these platforms, and for the cases
58 when you want to add some extra options to the command line or ignore
59 the default command line, you can supply some command-line options at
60 build time by entering them here. In other cases you can specify
61 kernel args so that you don't have to set them up in board prom
62 initialization routines.
64 For more information, see the CMDLINE_BOOL and CMDLINE_OVERRIDE
67 config CMDLINE_OVERRIDE
68 bool "Built-in command line overrides firmware arguments"
69 depends on CMDLINE_BOOL
71 By setting this option to 'Y' you will have your kernel ignore
72 command line arguments from firmware or second stage bootloader.
73 Instead, the built-in command line will be used exclusively.
75 Normally, you will choose 'N' here.

95 If your board doesn't support uart16550 compatible serial port, you
96 can try to select SYS_SUPPORTS_ZBOOT and use the other methods to
97 debug it. for example, add a new serial port support just as
98 arch/mips/boot/compressed/uart-16550.c does.
