The patch titled Subject: kdb: get rid of confusing diag msg from "rd" if current task has no regs has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was kdb-get-rid-of-confusing-diag-msg-from-rd-if-current-task-has-no-regs.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Douglas Anderson <dianders@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: kdb: get rid of confusing diag msg from "rd" if current task has no regs If you switch to a sleeping task with the "pid" command and then type "rd", kdb tells you this: No current kdb registers. You may need to select another task diag: -17: Invalid register name The first message makes sense, but not the second. Fix it by just returning 0 after commands accessing the current registers finish if we've already printed the "No current kdb registers" error. While fixing kdb_rd(), change the function to use "if" rather than "ifdef". It cleans the function up a bit and any modern compiler will have no trouble handling still producing good code.
