The XEN3_DOM0 kernel already contains:

options         MPBIOS
options         MPDEBUG
options         MPVERBOSE
options         ACPIVERBOSE

and the one I compile my kernel additionally has:

options         LOCKDEBUG
options         VNODE_LOCKDEBUG
options         MALLOC_DEBUG
options         UVMHIST
