[redhat] New configs in lib/Kconfig.debug

CKI Gitlab requested to merge configs/2021-03-01/lib/Kconfig.debug into os-build

Hi,

As part of the ongoing rebase effort, the following configuration options need to be reviewed.

As a reminder, the ARK configuration flow involves moving unreviewed configuration options from the pending directory to the ark directory. In the diff below, options are removed from the pending directory and added to the ark hierarchy. The final options that need to be ACKed are the files that are being added to the ark hierarchy.

If the value for a file that is added should be changed, please reply with a better option.

CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_DWARF_TOOLCHAIN_DEFAULT:

The implicit default version of DWARF debug info produced by a toolchain changes over time.

This can break consumers of the debug info that haven't upgraded to support newer revisions, and prevent testing newer versions, but those should be less common scenarios.

If unsure, say Y.

Symbol: DEBUG_INFO_DWARF_TOOLCHAIN_DEFAULT [=n] Type : bool Defined at lib/Kconfig.debug:264 Prompt: Rely on the toolchain's implicit default DWARF version Depends on: Location: -> Kernel hacking -> Compile-time checks and compiler options -> Compile the kernel with debug info (DEBUG_INFO [=y]) -> DWARF version ( [=y])
