└─>KDB: continue after catastrophic errors
In linux kernel since version 3.1 (release Date: 2011-10-24)
This integer controls the behaviour of kdb when the kernel gets a
catastrophic error, i.e. for a panic or oops.
When KDB is active and a catastrophic error occurs, nothing extra
will happen until you type 'go'.
CONFIG_KDB_CONTINUE_CATASTROPHIC == 0 (default). The first time
you type 'go', you will be warned by kdb. The secend time you type
'go', KDB tries to continue. No guarantees that the
kernel is still usable in this situation.
CONFIG_KDB_CONTINUE_CATASTROPHIC == 1. KDB tries to continue.
No guarantees that the kernel is still usable in this situation.
CONFIG_KDB_CONTINUE_CATASTROPHIC == 2. KDB forces a reboot.
If you are not sure, say 0.
