Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!

+menu "Kernel hacking"

+source "lib/Kconfig.debug"
+
+config CROSSCOMPILE
+ bool "Are you using a crosscompiler"
+ help
+ Say Y here if you are compiling the kernel on a different
+ architecture than the one it is intended to run on.
+
+config CMDLINE
+ string "Default kernel command string"
+ default ""
+ help
+ 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.
+
+config DEBUG_STACK_USAGE
+ bool "Enable stack utilization instrumentation"
+ depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
+ help
+ Enables the display of the minimum amount of free stack which each
+ task has ever had available in the sysrq-T and sysrq-P debug output.
+
+ This option will slow down process creation somewhat.
+
+config KGDB
+ bool "Remote GDB kernel debugging"
+ depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
+ select DEBUG_INFO
+ help
+ 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.
+
+config GDB_CONSOLE
+ bool "Console output to GDB"
+ depends on KGDB
+ help
+ If you are using GDB for remote debugging over a serial port and
+ would like kernel messages to be formatted into GDB $O packets so
+ that GDB prints them as program output, say 'Y'.
+
+config SB1XXX_CORELIS
+ bool "Corelis Debugger"
+ depends on SIBYTE_SB1xxx_SOC
+ select DEBUG_INFO
+ help
+ Select compile flags that produce code that can be processed by the
+ Corelis mksym utility and UDB Emulator.
+
+config RUNTIME_DEBUG
+ bool "Enable run-time debugging"
+ depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
+ help
+ If you say Y here, some debugging macros will do run-time checking.
+ If you say N here, those macros will mostly turn to no-ops. See
+ include/asm-mips/debug.h for debuging macros.
+ If unsure, say N.
+
+config MIPS_UNCACHED
+ bool "Run uncached"
+ depends on DEBUG_KERNEL && !SMP && !SGI_IP27
+ help
+ 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.
