+### Usage of `DEBUG_RCU` & `--enable-rcu-debug`
-`DEBUG_RCU` is used to add internal debugging self-checks to the
-RCU library. This define adds a performance penalty when enabled.
-Can be enabled by uncommenting the corresponding line in
-`Makefile.build.inc`.
+By default the library is configured with internal debugging
+self-checks disabled.
+
+For always-on debugging self-checks:
+ ./configure --enable-rcu-debug
+
+For fine grained enabling of debugging self-checks, build
+urserspace-rcu with DEBUG_RCU defined and compile dependent
+applications with DEBUG_RCU defined when necessary.
+
+Warning: Enabling this feature result in a performance penalty.
