- If you say Y here, it will be possible to remotely debug the
- kernel using gdb. It is recommended but not required, that
- you also turn on the kernel config option
- CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER to aid in producing more reliable stack
- backtraces in the external debugger. Documentation of
- kernel debugger is available at http://kgdb.sourceforge.net
- as well as in DocBook form in Documentation/DocBook/. If
- unsure, say N.

- help
- This is a kgdb I/O module specifically designed to test
- kgdb's internal functions. This kgdb I/O module is
- intended to for the development of new kgdb stubs
- as well as regression testing the kgdb internals.
- See the drivers/misc/kgdbts.c for the details about
- the tests. The most basic of this I/O module is to boot
- a kernel boot arguments "kgdbwait kgdbts=V1F100"

- This is the command string to send the kgdb test suite on

- Specifiers which kdb commands are enabled by default. This may
- be set to 1 or 0 to enable all commands or disable almost all
- commands.
- Alternatively the following bitmask applies:
- 0x0002 - allow arbitrary reads from memory and symbol lookup
- 0x0004 - allow arbitrary writes to memory
- 0x0008 - allow current register state to be inspected
- 0x0010 - allow current register state to be modified
- 0x0020 - allow passive inspection (backtrace, process list, lsmod)
- 0x0040 - allow flow control management (breakpoint, single step)
- 0x0080 - enable signalling of processes
- 0x0100 - allow machine to be rebooted
- The config option merely sets the default at boot time. Both
- issuing 'echo X > /sys/module/kdb/parameters/cmd_enable' or
- setting with kdb.cmd_enable=X kernel command line option will
- override the default settings.

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