Hi Christian,

I attached a patch "test-module-kdb_enter.patch".
Apply the patch and build it as a kernel module.
Then do "insmod <path>/kdb_enter.ko" would drop you into kdb.

To exit back to your running kernel, you need to "kill -15 <pid>"
where <pid> is the pid of "insmod" on every cpu of your system.
If you do a "kill ..." on one cpu, and do a "go", you will be
dropped into kdb on a different cpu. You need to clear all
of them to get back.

Hope this help.

Cheers,
