The patch titled Subject: kgdb: depends on VT has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was kgdb-depends-on-vt.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Jiri Slaby <jslaby@xxxxxxx> Subject: kgdb: depends on VT With VT=n, the kernel build fails with: drivers/built-in.o: In function `kgdboc_pre_exp_handler': kgdboc.c:(.text+0x7b5aa): undefined reference to `fg_console' kgdboc.c:(.text+0x7b5ce): undefined reference to `vc_cons' kgdboc.c:(.text+0x7b5d5): undefined reference to `vc_cons' kgdboc.o is built when KGDB_SERIAL_CONSOLE is set. So make KGDB_SERIAL_CONSOLE depend on HW_CONSOLE which includes those symbols.
