First set of kgdb patches (lite) is fairly clean. Let's consider it to be a candicate for submission to mainline kernel. I am freezing the lite patches wrt. feature updates. Only bug-fixes and code cleanups will be allowed in lite patches. You can make any feature enhancements to second set of patches. I propose following schedule for pushing kgdb lite into mainline kernel: Take 1: 8th , Take 2: 15th, Take 3: 22nd, Take 4:29th. I'll download the kernel snapshot (http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/snapshots/) on these dates and submit a single patch for possible acceptance into mainline kenrel and feedback from community. Hopefully we'll succeed by end of this month. Please checkin any fixes or cleanups by end of this week. I plan to add some documentation to core-lite.patch this week (will send it for review in a separate email) Comments/suggestions? -- Amit Kale EmSysSoft (http://www.emsyssoft.com) KGDB: Linux Kernel Source Level Debugger (http://kgdb.sourceforge.net) - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
