Subject: [PATCH 6/8] riscv: ptrace: Add hw breakpoint support
Date: Tue, 5 Aug 2025 12:39:53 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250805193955.798277-7-jesse@rivosinc.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250805193955.798277-1-jesse@rivosinc.com>
Add ability to setup hw breakpoints to ptrace. Call defines a new
structure of __riscv_hwdebug_state which will be passed to ptrace.
Signed-off-by: Jesse Taube <jesse@rivosinc.com>
---
RFC -> V1:
- Add struct __riscv_hwdebug_state for ptrace_hbp_set/get
- Break out ptrace_hbp_set/get so regset can use them
- Check for NULL instead of IS_ERR_OR_NULL
- Move ptrace_get/sethbpregs above user_regset
