Subject: [kvm-unit-tests PATCH] x86/debug: Verify DR6 is always empty on an INT1/ICEBP #DB
Date: Thu, 14 May 2026 14:12:37 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260514211237.1629774-1-seanjc@google.com> (raw)

Extend the single-step + INT/ICEBP #DB testcase to verify that DR6.BS==0
on the ICEBP #DB, even when single-step is fully enabled.  Per the SDM:

  The INT1 instruction also uses a one-byte opcode (F1) and generates a
  debug exception (#DB) without setting any bits in DR6.
