Hello all, Can I make any use of kmemcheck if I don't have sysfs kernel support enabled?Why would you ever want to run a kernel without sysfs support? ?If you turn it off, you loose a _lot_ of functionality that you will need to add back to your system in some other manner.
I totally agree with you. But we've done it to save memory.
What, specifically, is wrong with sysfs that is solved by turning it off?
There's nothing wrong with sysfs. In fact, I like it! thanks, Daniel.
