second event could enter kdb before the first had completely ended.
* kdb/kdbmain.c (kdb): Document all the concurrency conditions and how
kdb handles them. ss[b] now releases only the current cpu. Do not set
breakpoints when releasing for ss[b]. Recover from errors in kdb
commands. Check that we have reliable longjmp data before using it.
* various: Update return code documentation.
* kdb/kdb_bp.c (kdb_ss): Separate ss and ssb return codes.
* kdb/kdbsupport.c (kdb_ipi): Finer grained algorithm for deciding
whether to call send a stop signal to a cpu.
* arch/i386/kdb/kdba_bp.c (kdba_db_trap): Separate ss and ssb return
codes. Reinstall delayed software breakpoints per cpu instead of
globally. Changed algorithm for handling ss[b].
* arch/i386/kdb/kdba_bp.c (kdba_bp_trap): Match software breakpoints per
cpu instead of globally.
* include/linux/kdb.h: Bump version to kdb v1.5.
2000-09-16 Keith Owens <kaos@melbourne.sgi.com>
* kernel/sysctl.c (kern_table): add /proc/sys/kernel/kdb.
* init/main.c (parse_options): add boot flags kdb=on, kdb=off,
kdb=early.
* include/linux/sysctl.h (enum): add KERN_KDB.
* drivers/char/serial.c (receive_chars): check kdb_on.
* drivers/char/keyboard.c (handle_scancode): check kdb_on.
* arch/i386/kernel/traps.c (nmi_watchdog_tick): check kdb_on.
* arch/i386/config.in: add CONFIG_KDB_OFF.
* Documentation/Configure.help: add CONFIG_KDB_OFF.
* kdb/kdbmain.c: add kdb_initial_cpu, kdb_on.
* kdb/kdbmain.c (kdb): check kdb_on, set kdb_initial_cpu.
* kdb/kdbmain.c (kdb_init): add Keith Owens to kdb banner.
* kdb/kdb_io.c (kdb_printf): serialize kdb_printf output.
* kdb/kdb_bt.c (kdb_bt): check environment variable BTAPROMPT.
* kdb/kdbsupport.c (kdb_ipi): ignore NMI for kdb_initial_cpu.
* kdb/modules/kdbm_pg.c (kdbm_page): merge updates from 2.4.0-test5-xfs.
* kdb/kdb_bt.man: add btp, bta, BTAPROMPT.
* kdb/kdb.mm: add CONFIG_KDB_OFF, boot flags, btp, bta.
* include/linux/kdbprivate.h: add kdb_initial_cpu.
* include/linux/kdb.h: add kdb_on, bump version to kdb v1.4.
