Re: [Xen-devel] How to disable xen debugger?

["Lily Huang" <ushuanglily@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks a lot for your help! I already found the problem. My system is
slowed down because of misconfiguration, nothing to do with the
debugger. 

But another funny thing for me is that once I used ctrl+c to terminate
gdbserver-xen, the dom0 will immediately reboot. My setting is as
follows:
1. I ran gdbserver-xen in dom0, and ran my kernel modules in both dom0
and a domU. The kernel modules are essentially a frontend (in domU) and
a backend (in dom0) driver. 
2. I then debugged the frontend in dom0
3. My code runs normally (at least, I didn't see anything wrong).

After I debugged the code, I did ctrl+c to terminate gdbserver-xen,
dom0 immediatelly reboot, which is not expected. Any solution to this
problem?

Another question: is there any way to debug the kernel module running in dom0? gdbserver-xen seems to only debug domU.

Again, thanks a lot for your help!

Just terminate gdbserver-xen.

If that doesn't do it: What are your exact steps from `runs normally'
to `runs slowly'?
