It is + currently used by the ext3 file system, but it could also be + used to add journal support to other file systems or block + devices such as RAID or LVM. + + If you are using the ext3 file system, you need to say Y here. + If you are not using ext3 then you will probably want to say N. + + To compile this device as a module, choose M here: the module will be + called jbd. If you are compiling ext3 into the kernel, you + cannot compile this code as a module. + +config JBD_DEBUG + bool "JBD (ext3) debugging support" + depends on JBD && DEBUG_FS + help + If you are using the ext3 journaled file system (or potentially any + other file system/device using JBD), this option allows you to + enable debugging output while the system is running, in order to + help track down any problems you are having. By default the + debugging output will be turned off. + + If you select Y here, then you will be able to turn on debugging + with "echo N > /sys/kernel/debug/jbd/jbd-debug", where N is a + number between 1 and 5, the higher the number, the more debugging + output is generated. To turn debugging off again, do + "echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/jbd/jbd-debug". |
