Remote Kernel Debugging
I finally got remote kernel debugging working ... sort of. If I attempt to set a breakpoint and then tell the kernel to continue, it SIGTRAPs for a reason I can't ascertain ... because gdb is convinced that the source code I've given it is newer than the symbol-laden kernel file I'm using ... and it shows the errant line of code ... which is a comment. Obviously, gdb is correct ... even though the version numbers match.
So, if I don't set a breakpoint, then I can tell the kernel to continue just fine, but since the bug I'm trying to fix doesn't cause a kernel panic, I have no recourse.
Aye yi yi.
I need to go to bed.
