SLUB: support slub_debug on by default
Add a new configuration variable CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON If set then the kernel will be booted by default with slab debugging switched on. Similar to CONFIG_SLAB_DEBUG. By default slab debugging is available but must be enabled by specifying "slub_debug" as a kernel parameter. Also add support to switch off slab debugging for a kernel that was built with CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON. This works by specifying slub_debug=- as a kernel parameter. Dave Jones wanted this feature. http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=118072189913045&w=2 [akpm@linux-foundation.org: clean up switch statement] Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter <clameter@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>hifive-unleashed-5.1
