-config MODE_TT
- bool "Tracing thread support (DEPRECATED)"
- default n
- depends on BROKEN
- help
- This option controls whether tracing thread support is compiled
- into UML. This option is largely obsolete, given that skas0 provides
- skas security and performance without needing to patch the host.
- It is safe to say 'N' here; saying 'Y' may cause additional problems
- with the resulting binary even if you run UML in SKAS mode, and running
- in TT mode is strongly *NOT RECOMMENDED*.

config STATIC_LINK
bool "Force a static link"
default n
- depends on !MODE_TT
help
- If CONFIG_MODE_TT is disabled, then this option gives you the ability
- to force a static link of UML. Normally, if only skas mode is built
- in to UML, it will be linked as a shared binary. This is inconvenient
- for use in a chroot jail. So, if you intend to run UML inside a
- chroot, and you disable CONFIG_MODE_TT, you probably want to say Y
- here.

- This determines the amount of address space that UML will allocate for
- its own, measured in half Gigabyte units. The default is 1.
- Change this only if you need to boot UML with an unusually large amount

-config MODE_SKAS
- bool "Separate Kernel Address Space support" if MODE_TT
- default y
- help
- This option controls whether skas (separate kernel address space)
- support is compiled in.
- Unless you have specific needs to use TT mode (which applies almost only
- to developers), you should say Y here.
- SKAS mode will make use of the SKAS3 patch if it is applied on the host
- (and your UML will run in SKAS3 mode), but if no SKAS patch is applied
- on the host it will run in SKAS0 mode, which is anyway faster than TT
- mode.
