This is wrong and should not be merged. A) You should not change these defaults in this manner B) You have pointed out that the documentation is currently incorrect. The CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA constraints were removed some time ago, per commit 3751d3e85cf693e10e2c47c03c8caa65e171099b (x86,kgdb: Fix DEBUG_RODATA limitation using text_poke()) Jason. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Precog is a next-generation analytics platform capable of advanced analytics on semi-structured data.
