If this option is disabled, you allow userspace (root) access to all

access to this is obviously disastrous, but specific access can

be used by people debugging the kernel.

userspace access to memory mapped peripherals.

When a user program crashes due to an exception, the kernel can

|
print a brief message explaining what the problem was. This is
|
|
sometimes helpful for debugging but serves no purpose on a
|
|
production system. Most people should say N here.
|
|
|
|
In addition, you need to pass user_debug=N on the kernel command
|
|
line to enable this feature. N consists of the sum of:
|
|
|
|
1 - undefined instruction events
|
|
2 - system calls
|
|
4 - invalid data aborts
|
|
8 - SIGSEGV faults

16 - SIGBUS faults
