From: Tim Bird Date: Wed, 21 Sep 2011 20:19:12 +0000 (-0700) Subject: kdb: Avoid using dbg_io_ops until it is initialized X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b8adde8dd;p=linux-beck.git kdb: Avoid using dbg_io_ops until it is initialized This fixes a bug with setting a breakpoint during kdb initialization (from kdb_cmds). Any call to kdb_printf() before the initialization of the kgdboc serial console driver (which happens much later during bootup than kdb_init), results in kernel panic due to the use of dbg_io_ops before it is initialized.
