| |
I am tired of waiting for rc6, so if there are ground shaking changes over rc6-git9, I will update the patches.
ChangeLog, 09/07/2008
Corrected dword, word, and byte dereference in the mdb-logic.c documentation to match the disassembly display.
Changed oops_in_progress entry point to a counter variable to preserve state when mdb is called from exceptions where it may have been previously set.
Cleaned up several hundred more checkpatch.pl messages.
Cleanup error check cases in mdb-logic.c
back ported modularization, and use of notify_die handlers, sysrq handler to previous Linux kernel mdb patch versions 2.6.18 up through 2.6.27-rc6.
removed dependencies on broken thread migration routines in reboot.c with processor migration during reboot request. It's busted if multiple processors are in the debugger.
TO-DO
x86_64 systems received, merge in process IA64 systems slated for receipt in November for testing. code merge in process with software simulator. Nested TSS gates for X86 and X86_64 in process
