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.
