- ---help---
- The CRIS version of gdb can be used to remotely debug a running
- Linux kernel via the serial debug port. Provided you have gdb-cris
- installed, run gdb-cris vmlinux, then type
- (gdb) set remotebaud 115200 <- kgdb uses 115200 as default
- (gdb) target remote /dev/ttyS0 <- maybe you use another port
- This should connect you to your booted kernel (or boot it now if you
- didn't before). The kernel halts when it boots, waiting for gdb if
- this option is turned on!
- config DEBUG_INFO
- bool "Compile the kernel with debug info"
- help
- If you say Y here the resulting kernel image will include
- debugging info resulting in a larger kernel image.
- Say Y here only if you plan to use gdb to debug the kernel.
- If you don't debug the kernel, you can say N.
- config FRAME_POINTER
- bool "Compile the kernel with frame pointers"
- help
- If you say Y here the resulting kernel image will be slightly larger
- and slower, but it will give very useful debugging information.
- If you don't debug the kernel, you can say N, but we may not be able
- to solve problems without frame pointers.
