I am new the Linux, but since I need to be able to debug a driver module,
I tried to patch a 2.4.20-8 kernel to add kdb.
I started with the command -
"patch -b -p1<kdb-v4.3-2.4.20-common-1"
but after it patched 3 files, I got the following -
"Patching file kernel/ksyms.c
Reversed (or previously applied) patch detected! Assume -R? [n]"
Is that because my kernel comes from a RedHat distribution? and anyway -
what do I now?
(I know someone asked the exact same question on the list more than a year
ago,
but the only reply I saw was a couple of questions - "Which kernel were you
patching?
Which patch were you applying?")
Thanks,
Limor
