Hi Keith,

I was happy to see the 1.5 release announcement this morning. Wow, that was
quick. ;-) Based on that, is it possible to say whether a module's use of
kdb_read is okay now?

Regards -- Andy

kdb v1.5 (out soon) is a major redesign of the cpu state handling, to
get finer grained control over single step and recovery from oopsing or
hung kdb commands.  Part of that redesign affects the way kdb_read()
works, especially the longjmp() to break out of a command.  Ask me
again after v1.5 is out.
