Say Y here if you are compiling the kernel on a different

architecture than the one it is intended to run on. This is just a

|
convenience option which will select the appropriate value for
|
|
|
|
|
the CROSS_COMPILE make variable which otherwise has to be passed on
|
|
|
|
|
the command line from mips-linux-, mipsel-linux-, mips64-linux- and
|
|
|
|
|
mips64el-linux- as appropriate for a particular kernel configuration.
|
|
|
|
|
You will have to pass the value for CROSS_COMPILE manually if the
|
|
|
|
|
name prefix for your tools is different.

On some platforms, there is currently no way for the boot loader to
|
|
|
|
|
pass arguments to the kernel. For these platforms, you can supply
|
|
|
|
|
some command-line options at build time by entering them here. In
|
|
|
|
|
other cases you can specify kernel args so that you don't have
|
|
|
|
|
to set them up in board prom initialization routines.

If you say Y here, it will be possible to remotely debug the MIPS

kernel using gdb. This enlarges your kernel image disk size by

several megabytes and requires a machine with more than 16 MB,
|
|
|
|

better 32 MB RAM to avoid excessive linking time. This is only

useful for kernel hackers. If unsure, say N.

If you say Y here there kernel will disable all CPU caches. This will
|
|
|
|
|
reduce the system's performance dramatically but can help finding
|
|

otherwise hard to track bugs. It can also useful if you're doing

|

hardware debugging with a logic analyzer and need to see all traffic
|
|
|
|
|
on the bus.
