Hi!
It's not clear why you can't disable CONFIG_DEBUG_FS via "make
menuconfig" or stuff like this?
This option is located under Kernel Haking -> Debuging Filesystems.
I've attached the diff of .config for this option.
Best wishes,
Vladimir Murzin
Hi Vladimir,
AFAIK, the reason why one cant disable debugfs from make menuconfig and other similar ways to make changes to config file, is that debugfs is being used by many kernel code which are in-built in the kernel and not as a module. Hence i think because of this it is kept tightly coupled with the kernel.
