   The Kernel command line option <code class="constant">kgdbwait</code> makes
   kgdb wait for a debugger connection during booting of a kernel.  You
   can only use this option you compiled a kgdb I/O driver into the
   kernel and you specified the I/O driver configuration as a kernel
   command line option.  The kgdbwait parameter should always follow the
   configuration parameter for the kgdb I/O driver in the kernel
   command line else the I/O driver will not be configured prior to
   asking the kernel to use it to wait.
   </p><p>
   The kernel will stop and wait as early as the I/O driver and
   architecture allows when you use this option.  If you build the
   kgdb I/O driver as a loadable kernel module kgdbwait will not do
   anything.
