Linus,
A reasonable explanation. However, this begs the question as to **WHY** you are so opposed to kernel debuggers in Linux. Code reviews don't catch hardware bugs or other types of performance issues related to bus architecture, etc.
Opposition to a kernel debugger in Linux, at least from the view of some folks, is a case of someone using inferior methods because of ideaology.
Not meant as a recrimination, but you've just made the case for kernel debuggers in Linux.
