[PATCH 2/5] repair gdbstub to match the gdbserial protocol specification
The gdbserial protocol handler should return an empty packet instead of an error string when ever it responds to a command it does not implement. The problem cases come from a debugger client sending qTBuffer, qTStatus, qSearch, qSupported. The incorrect response from the gdbstub leads the debugger clients to ... 21 Jul 2010 21:19

[PATCH 3/5] Fix merge regression from external kdb to upstream kdb
In the process of merging kdb to the mainline, the kdb lsmod command stopped printing the base load address of kernel modules. This is needed for using kdb in conjunction with external tools such as gdb. Simply restore the functionality by adding a kdb_printf for the base load address of the kernel modules.

[PATCH 4/5] debug_core,kdb: fix kgdb_connected bit set in the wrong place
Immediately following an exit from the kdb shell the kgdb_connected variable should be set to zero, unless there are breakpoints planted. If the kgdb_connected variable is not zeroed out with kdb, it is impossible to turn off kdb. This patch is merely a work around for now, the real fix will check for the breakp... 21 Jul 2010 21:19
