Hi Keith,

Just a question : Is someone planning (or maybe already doing) a port of kdb to Alpha architecture ?
I would really like to see a common kernel debugger for (almost) all major architectures (despite
Linus's feelings).

Solaris have had ADB for years, so it's about time Linux got a well implemented debugger (well, I
know kdb has been here for some time too).

Regards,
