18 you also turn on the kernel config option

41 This is a kgdb I/O module specifically designed to test
42 kgdb's internal functions. This kgdb I/O module is
43 intended to for the development of new kgdb stubs
44 as well as regression testing the kgdb internals.
45 See the drivers/misc/kgdbts.c for the details about
46 the tests. The most basic of this I/O module is to boot

95 0x0008 - allow current register state to be inspected
96 0x0010 - allow current register state to be modified
97 0x0020 - allow passive inspection (backtrace, process list, lsmod)

119 This integer controls the behaviour of kdb when the kernel gets a
120 catastrophic error, i.e. for a panic or oops.
121 When KDB is active and a catastrophic error occurs, nothing extra
122 will happen until you type 'go'.
123 CONFIG_KDB_CONTINUE_CATASTROPHIC == 0 (default). The first time
124 you type 'go', you will be warned by kdb. The secend time you type
125 'go', KDB tries to continue. No guarantees that the
126 kernel is still usable in this situation.
127 CONFIG_KDB_CONTINUE_CATASTROPHIC == 1. KDB tries to continue.
128 No guarantees that the kernel is still usable in this situation.
129 CONFIG_KDB_CONTINUE_CATASTROPHIC == 2. KDB forces a reboot.
130 If you are not sure, say 0.

132config ARCH_HAS_EARLY_DEBUG
133 bool
134 default n
135 help
136 If an architecture can definitely handle entering the debugger
137 when early_param's are parsed then it select this config.
138 Otherwise, if "kgdbwait" is passed on the kernel command line it
139 won't actually be processed until dbg_late_init() just after the
140 call to kgdb_arch_late() is made.
141
142 NOTE: Even if this isn't selected by an architecture we will
143 still try to register kgdb to handle breakpoints and crashes
144 when early_param's are parsed, we just won't act on the
145 "kgdbwait" parameter until dbg_late_init(). If you get a
146 crash and try to drop into kgdb somewhere between these two
147 places you might or might not end up being able to use kgdb
148 depending on exactly how far along the architecture has initted.
