order memory debugging Kconfig options
Original posting: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20121214184203.37E6C724@kernel.stglabs.ibm.com There are a *LOT* of memory debugging options. They are just scattered all over the "Kernel Hacking" menu. Sure, "memory debugging" is a very vague term and it's going to be hard to make absolute rules about what goes in here, but this has to be better than what we had before. This does, however, leave out the architecture-specific memory debugging options (like x86's DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX). There would need to be some substantial changes to move those in here. Kconfig can not easily mix arch-specific and generic options together: it really requires a file per-architecture, and I think having an arch/foo/Kconfig.debug-memory might be taking things a bit too far Signed-off-by: Dave Hansen <dave@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
