This patch adds in the kdb PS/2 keyboard driver. This was mostly a
direct port from the original kdb where I cleaned up the code against
checkpatch.pl and added the glue to stitch it into kgdb.
This patch also enables early kdb debug via kgdbwait and the keyboard.
All the access to configure kdb using either a serial console or the
keyboard is done via kgdboc.
If you want to use only the keyboard and want to break in early you
would add to your kernel command arguments:
kgdboc=kbd kgdbwait
If you wanted serial and or the keyboard access you could use:
kgdboc=kbd,ttyS0
You can also configure kgdboc as a kernel module or at run time with
the sysfs where you can activate and deactivate kgdb.
Turn it on:
echo kbd,ttyS0 > /sys/module/kgdboc/parameters/kgdboc
Turn it off:
echo "" > /sys/module/kgdboc/parameters/kgdboc

If you say Y here, it will be possible to remotely debug the

kernel using gdb. It is recommended but not required, that
|
|
you also turn on the kernel config option

CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER to aid in producing more reliable stack

backtraces in the external debugger. Documentation of

kernel debugger is available at http://kgdb.sourceforge.net

as well as in DocBook form in Documentation/DocBook/. If

unsure, say N.

This is a kgdb I/O module specifically designed to test

intended to for the development of new kgdb stubs

See the drivers/misc/kgdbts.c for the details about
