Update the help text of the CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO option to be a little
|
|
bit more specific.

- If you say Y here the resulting Xen will include debugging info
|
|
- resulting in a larger binary image.
|
|
+ Say Y here if you want to build Xen with debug information. This
|
|
+ information is needed e.g. for doing crash dump analysis of the
|
|
+ hypervisor via the "crash" tool.
|
|
+ Saying Y will increase the size of the xen-syms and xen.efi
|
|
+ binaries. In case the space on the EFI boot partition is rather
|
|
+ limited, you may want to install a stripped variant of xen.efi in
|
|
+ the EFI boot partition (look for "INSTALL_EFI_STRIP" in
|
|
+ docs/misc/efi.pandoc for more information - when not using
|
|
+ "make install-xen" for installing xen.efi, stripping needs to be
|
|
+ done outside the Xen build environment).
