loops can be debugged more effectively on production
systems.
+ clocksource.max_cswd_read_retries= [KNL]
+ Number of clocksource_watchdog() retries due to
+ external delays before the clock will be marked
+ unstable. Defaults to three retries, that is,
+ four attempts to read the clock under test.
+
+ clocksource.verify_n_cpus= [KNL]
+ Limit the number of CPUs checked for clocksources
+ marked with CLOCK_SOURCE_VERIFY_PERCPU that
+ are marked unstable due to excessive skew.
+ A negative value says to check all CPUs, while
+ zero says not to check any. Values larger than
+ nr_cpu_ids are silently truncated to nr_cpu_ids.
+ The actual CPUs are chosen randomly, with
+ no replacement if the same CPU is chosen twice.
+
clearcpuid=BITNUM[,BITNUM...] [X86]
Disable CPUID feature X for the kernel. See
arch/x86/include/asm/cpufeatures.h for the valid bit
Don't use this when you are not running on the
android emulator
+ gpio-mockup.gpio_mockup_ranges
+ [HW] Sets the ranges of gpiochip of for this device.
+ Format: <start1>,<end1>,<start2>,<end2>...
+ gpio-mockup.gpio_mockup_named_lines
+ [HW] Let the driver know GPIO lines should be named.
+
gpt [EFI] Forces disk with valid GPT signature but
invalid Protective MBR to be treated as GPT. If the
primary GPT is corrupted, it enables the backup/alternate
Format: <unsigned int> such that (rxsize & ~0x1fffc0) == 0.
Default: 1024
- gpio-mockup.gpio_mockup_ranges
- [HW] Sets the ranges of gpiochip of for this device.
- Format: <start1>,<end1>,<start2>,<end2>...
-
hardlockup_all_cpu_backtrace=
[KNL] Should the hard-lockup detector generate
backtraces on all cpus.
initcall functions. Useful for debugging built-in
modules and initcalls.
+ initramfs_async= [KNL]
+ Format: <bool>
+ Default: 1
+ This parameter controls whether the initramfs
+ image is unpacked asynchronously, concurrently
+ with devices being probed and
+ initialized. This should normally just work,
+ but as a debugging aid, one can get the
+ historical behaviour of the initramfs
+ unpacking being completed before device_ and
+ late_ initcalls.
+
initrd= [BOOT] Specify the location of the initial ramdisk
initrdmem= [KNL] Specify a physical address and size from which to
seconds. Use this parameter to check at some
other rate. 0 disables periodic checking.
- memtest= [KNL,X86,ARM,PPC] Enable memtest
+ memory_hotplug.memmap_on_memory
+ [KNL,X86,ARM] Boolean flag to enable this feature.
+ Format: {on | off (default)}
+ When enabled, runtime hotplugged memory will
+ allocate its internal metadata (struct pages)
+ from the hotadded memory which will allow to
+ hotadd a lot of memory without requiring
+ additional memory to do so.
+ This feature is disabled by default because it
+ has some implication on large (e.g. GB)
+ allocations in some configurations (e.g. small
+ memory blocks).
+ The state of the flag can be read in
+ /sys/module/memory_hotplug/parameters/memmap_on_memory.
+ Note that even when enabled, there are a few cases where
+ the feature is not effective.
+
+ memtest= [KNL,X86,ARM,PPC,RISCV] Enable memtest
Format: <integer>
default : 0 <disable>
Specifies the number of memtest passes to be
nohugeiomap [KNL,X86,PPC,ARM64] Disable kernel huge I/O mappings.
+ nohugevmalloc [PPC] Disable kernel huge vmalloc mappings.
+
nosmt [KNL,S390] Disable symmetric multithreading (SMT).
Equivalent to smt=1.
