From 63a68f078dbbdde2ffc3a7cb2928cef6b17a38a3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jason Wessel Date: Thu, 28 Jul 2011 12:42:23 -0500 Subject: [PATCH 213/347] kgdb/serial: Short term workaround Origin: https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/4.19/older/patches-4.19.246-rt110.tar.xz On 07/27/2011 04:37 PM, Thomas Gleixner wrote: > - KGDB (not yet disabled) is reportedly unusable on -rt right now due > to missing hacks in the console locking which I dropped on purpose. > To work around this in the short term you can use this patch, in addition to the clocksource watchdog patch that Thomas brewed up. Comments are welcome of course. Ultimately the right solution is to change separation between the console and the HW to have a polled mode + work queue so as not to introduce any kind of latency.
