      gdbstub: Optimize kgdb's "thread:" response for the gdb serial protocol · 84a0bd5b
      Jason Wessel authored
      The gdb debugger understands how to parse short versions of the thread
      reference string as long as the bytes are paired in sets of two
      characters.  The kgdb implementation was always sending 8 leading
      zeros which could be omitted, and further optimized in the case of
      non-negative thread numbers.  The negative numbers are used to
      reference a specific cpu in the case of kgdb.
      
      An example of the previous i386 stop packet looks like:
          T05thread:00000000000003bb;
      
      New stop packet response:
          T05thread:03bb;
      
      The previous ThreadInfo response looks like:
          m00000000fffffffe,0000000000000001,0000000000000002,0000000000000003,0000000000000004,0000000000000005,0000000000000006,0000000000000007,000000000000000c,0000000000000088,000000000000008a,000000000000008b,000000000000008c,000000000000008d,000000000000008e,00000000000000d4,00000000000000d5,00000000000000dd
      
      New ThreadInfo response:
          mfffffffe,01,02,03,04,05,06,07,0c,88,8a,8b,8c,8d,8e,d4,d5,dd
      
      A few bytes saved means better response time when using kgdb over a
      serial line.
