It part-happened, then the effort seemed to die. > Also, > it would be nice if I could connect to a remote kernel running the kgdb stubs > w/o having to run gdb on the same ethernet segment. Would that be difficult > to fix? <tries to remember how ethernet works> Maybe we'd have to teach kgdboe to arp for the remote debug host. I think Matt was talking about that a while back. <tries to remember how ethernet switches work> If switches send the destination MAC address through unchanged then maybe the problem is that the switch simply doesn't know the MAC address of the remote debug host yet? If the switch has its own MAC address (it doesn't, does it), or if it's actually a router then perhaps you should specify the router's MAC address and not the remote debug host's. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
