It is currently used by 86da0b38fSAlexey Dobriyan the ext4 and OCFS2 filesystems, but it could also be used to add 96da0b38fSAlexey Dobriyan journal support to other file systems or block devices such 106da0b38fSAlexey Dobriyan as RAID or LVM. 116da0b38fSAlexey Dobriyan 126da0b38fSAlexey Dobriyan If you are using ext4 or OCFS2, you need to say Y here. 136da0b38fSAlexey Dobriyan If you are not using ext4 or OCFS2 then you will 146da0b38fSAlexey Dobriyan probably want to say N. 156da0b38fSAlexey Dobriyan 166da0b38fSAlexey Dobriyan To compile this device as a module, choose M here. The module will be 176da0b38fSAlexey Dobriyan called jbd2. If you are compiling ext4 or OCFS2 into the kernel, 186da0b38fSAlexey Dobriyan you cannot compile this code as a module. 196da0b38fSAlexey Dobriyan 206da0b38fSAlexey Dobriyanconfig JBD2_DEBUG 216da0b38fSAlexey Dobriyan bool "JBD2 (ext4) debugging support" 2275497d06SPaul Gortmaker depends on JBD2 236da0b38fSAlexey Dobriyan help 246da0b38fSAlexey Dobriyan If you are using the ext4 journaled file system (or 256da0b38fSAlexey Dobriyan potentially any other filesystem/device using JBD2), this option 266da0b38fSAlexey Dobriyan allows you to enable debugging output while the system is running, 276da0b38fSAlexey Dobriyan in order to help track down any problems you are having. 286da0b38fSAlexey Dobriyan By default, the debugging output will be turned off. 296da0b38fSAlexey Dobriyan 306da0b38fSAlexey Dobriyan If you select Y here, then you will be able to turn on debugging 3175497d06SPaul Gortmaker with "echo N > /sys/module/jbd2/parameters/jbd2_debug", where N is a 326da0b38fSAlexey Dobriyan number between 1 and 5. The higher the number, the more debugging 336da0b38fSAlexey Dobriyan output is generated. To turn debugging off again, do 3475497d06SPaul Gortmaker "echo 0 > /sys/module/jbd2/parameters/jbd2_debug". 35
