- 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

- kernel debugger is available at http://kgdb.sourceforge.net
- as well as in DocBook form in Documentation/DocBook/. If
- unsure, say N.

- as well as regression testing the kgdb internals.
- See the drivers/misc/kgdbts.c for the details about
- the tests. The most basic of this I/O module is to boot
