It makes sure various + assertions, self-checks, debugging messages and test modes are compiled + in (this all is compiled out otherwise). Assertions are light-weight + and this option also enables them. Self-checks, debugging messages and + test modes are switched off by default.

You can then further enable / disable individual debugging + features using UBIFS module parameters and the corresponding sysfs + interfaces. |
