help
If you say Y here, it will be possible to remotely debug the kernel
using gdb. This enlarges your kernel ELF image disk size by several
megabytes and requires a machine with more than 16 MB, better 32 MB
RAM to avoid excessive linking time. This is only useful for kernel
hackers. If unsure, say N.

help
If you say Y here, GDB stub will break into the program as soon as
possible, leaving the program counter at the beginning of
start_kernel() in init/main.c.

bool "Console output to GDB"
depends on GDBSTUB
help
If you are using GDB for remote debugging over a serial port and
would like kernel messages to be formatted into GDB $O packets so
that GDB prints them as program output, say 'Y'.
