>Description:
Please extend Developer's Handbook '10.6 On-Line Kernel Debugging Using Remote GDB' section with a similar note:
It is maybe necessary to enable a serial port for remote kernel debugging.
The "gdb: no debug ports present" dmesg message means there is no serial ports
configured for remote debugging. Edit '/boot/device.hints' and edit/insert:
hint.uart.0.flags="0x80" or
hint.sio.0.flags="0x80"
For details please consult man uart(4) or man sio(4) depending on the serial
driver is in use.
Thank you!
