[PATCH 7/9] i915: when kgdb is active display compression should be off
If the HW compression is left on, the call backs from the HW will crash the kernel. The only time this code is called is when kernel mode setting is in use with kgdb and the kdb shell. The atomic display pipe handler callback will reset everything when kgdb restores kernel to the run state. Signed-off-by: Jas... 5 Aug 2010 11:20

[PATCH 03/17] kgdb,kdb: individual register set and and get API
The kdb shell specification includes the ability to get and set architecture specific registers by name. For the time being individual register get and set will be implemented on a per architecture basis. If an architecture defines DBG_MAX_REG_NUM > 0 then kdb and the gdbstub will use the capability for individ... 5 Aug 2010 11:20

[PATCH 08/17] gdbstub: do not directly use dbg_reg_def[] in gdb_cmd_reg_set()
Presently the usable registers definitions on x86 are not contiguous for kgdb. The x86 kgdb uses a case statement for the sparse register accesses. The array which defines the registers (dbg_reg_def) should not be used directly in order to safely work with sparse register definitions. Specifically there was a ... 5 Aug 2010 11:20
