I'm trying debug an Android kernel freeze with KGDB. Apparently I can connect to the target and 'c' command to continue kernel execution works. But after that if I try put some break point, for example, I get answer similar to that:
(gdb) b goodix_i2c_write
Reply contains invalid hex digit 109
I'm calling gdb in this way:
./arm-linux-androideabi-gdb ../../../../../../kernel_imx/vmlinux
And at start configs is:

What's wrong?
Is my first experience with GDB. Is there a way to show exactly the last line before kernel freeze?
Thanks,
Leonardo
