- help
- Select the size of an alternate printk per-CPU buffer where messages
- printed from unsafe contexts are temporary stored. One example would
- be NMI messages, another one - printk recursion. The messages are
- copied to the main log buffer in a safe context to avoid a deadlock.
- The value defines the size as a power of 2.
-
- Those messages are rare and limited. The largest one is when
- a backtrace is printed. It usually fits into 4KB. Select
- 8KB if you want to be on the safe side.

- Examples:
- 17 => 128 KB for each CPU
- 16 => 64 KB for each CPU
- 15 => 32 KB for each CPU
- 14 => 16 KB for each CPU
