Changelog extracts.
2.4.19-common-1
2002-11-14 Keith Owens <kaos@sgi.com>
* Fix processing with O(1) scheduler. * 'go' switches back to initial cpu first. * 'go <address>' only allowed on initial cpu. * 'go' installs the global breakpoints from the initial cpu before releasing the other cpus. * If 'go' has to single step over a breakpoint then it single steps just the initial cpu, installs the global breakpoints then releases the other cpus. * General clean up of handling for breakpoints and single stepping over software breakpoints. * Add kdb_notifier_block so other code can tell when kdb is in control. * kdb v2.5-2.4.19-common-1.
2.4.19-i386-1
2002-11-14 Keith Owens <kaos@sgi.com>
* General clean up of handling for breakpoints and single stepping over software breakpoints. * Accept ff 1x as well as ff dx for call *(%reg) in backtrace. * kdb v2.5-2.4.19-i386-1.

v2.5/README
Starting with kdb v2.0 there is a common patch against each kernel which contains all the architecture independent code plus separate architecture dependent patches. Apply the common patch for your kernel plus at least one architecture dependent patch, the architecture patches activate kdb.
The naming convention for kdb patches is :-
vx.y The version of kdb. x.y is updated as new features are added to kdb. -v.p.s The kernel version that the patch applies to. 's' may include -pre, -rc or whatever numbering system the kernel keepers have thought up this week. -common The common kdb code. Everybody needs this. -i386 Architecture dependent code for i386. -ia64 Architecture dependent code for ia64, etc. -n If there are multiple kdb patches against the same kernel version then the last number is incremented.
To build kdb for your kernel, apply the common kdb patch which is less than or equal to the kernel v.p.s, taking the highest value of '-n' if there is more than one. Apply the relevant arch dependent patch with the same value of 'vx.y-v.p.s-', taking the highest value of '-n' if there is more than one.
For example, to use kdb for i386 on kernel 2.4.19, apply kdb-v2.5-2.4.19-common-<n> (use highest value of <n>) kdb-v2.5-2.4.19-i386-<n> (use highest value of <n>) in that order. To use kdb for ia64-020821 on kernel 2.4.19, apply kdb-v2.5-2.4.19-common-<n> (use highest value of <n>) kdb-v2.5-2.4.19-ia64-020821-<n> (use highest value of <n>) in that order.
Use patch -p1 for all patches.
