+ Say Y here if you want to enable the memory leak
+ detector. The memory allocation/freeing is traced in a way
+ similar to the Boehm's conservative garbage collector, the
+ difference being that the orphan objects are not freed but
+ only shown in /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak. Enabling this
+ feature will introduce an overhead to memory
+ allocations. See Documentation/kmemleak.txt for more
+ details.
+
+ Enabling DEBUG_SLAB or SLUB_DEBUG may increase the chances
+ of finding leaks due to the slab objects poisoning.
+
+ In order to access the kmemleak file, debugfs needs to be
+ mounted (usually at /sys/kernel/debug).

+ Kmemleak must track all the memory allocations to avoid
+ reporting false positives. Since memory may be allocated or
+ freed before kmemleak is initialised, an early log buffer is
+ used to store these actions. If kmemleak reports "early log
+ buffer exceeded", please increase this value.

+ Say Y or M here to build a test for the kernel memory leak

+ memory.
+
+ If unsure, say N.
