However, in this branch, kGDB seems to be broken at least on PowerPC (see http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/9/19/103). It seems to me that the only reason is due to a missing header file in include/asm-powerpc/kgdb.h This file used to be present in kgdb tree (see http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/jwessel/linux-2.6-kgdb.git;a=blob_plain;f=include/asm-powerpc/kgdb.h;hb=kgdb_2.6.22-rc6) but is no longer part of the patch. Is there any reason for that ? By opposition to what could be said in first LKML thread, adding this file is enough to restore kGDB on PowerPC. I've tested it and it compiles (and work) just fine (and as expected). Can this file be restored ? Ben
