Hi!


KGDB 2.0.3 is available at http://kgdb.sourceforge.net/kgdb-2/linux-2.6.1-kgdb-2.0.3.tar.bz2

Ethernet interface still doesn't work. It responds to gdb for a couple of packets and then panics. gdb log for ethernet interface is pasted below.

It panics and enter kgdb_handle_exception recursively and silently. To see the panic on screen make kgdb_handle_exception return immediately if kgdb_connected is non-zero.

Panic trace is pasted below. It panics in skb_release_data. Looks like skb handling will have to changed to be have kgdb specific buffers.


This seems to be needed (if I unselect CONFIG_KGDB_THREAD, I get
compile error on x86-64).

Amit, could you explain why this is an option? It seems very useful and not really too much code...
