Debugging off in 7.0-BETA1 kernel?

2007-10-26 Thread Doug Poland

Hello,

A couple of days ago I csup'd RELENG_7 and I noticed the GENERIC kernel 
was missing the following options...


options KDB
options DDB
options GDB
options INVARIANTS
options INVARIANT_SUPPORT
options WITNESS
options WITNESS_SKIPSPIN

The GENERIC kernel from BETA1.5 ISO did, however, include these options.

Question, is this a feature?  What are the preferred settings for 
testing in the BETA/RC stages of the release cycle?

I think for BETA stage we will prefer to have these options (disclaimer:
this is only my own $0.02), but for RC stages it will be preferred to
use kernel without these stuff.
