It's better not to positively BUG_ON the kernel, however developers need a way to locate issues as soon as possible. DBG_BUGON is introduced and it could only crash when EROFS_FS_DEBUG (EROFS developping feature) is on. It is helpful for developers to find and solve bugs quickly by eng builds. Previously, DBG_BUGON is defined as ((void)0) if EROFS_FS_DEBUG is off, but some unused variable warnings as follows could occur: drivers/staging/erofs/unzip_vle.c: In function `init_alway:': drivers/staging/erofs/unzip_vle.c:61:33: warning: unused variable `work' [-Wunused-variable] struct z_erofs_vle_work *const work = ^~~~ Fix it to #define DBG_BUGON(x) ((void)(x)).

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
