Subject: [v5][PATCH 3/6] book3e/kgdb: update thread's dbcr0
Date: Thu, 20 Jun 2013 18:28:27 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1371724110-8250-4-git-send-email-tiejun.chen@windriver.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1371724110-8250-1-git-send-email-tiejun.chen@windriver.com>
gdb always need to generate a single step properly to invoke
a kgdb state. But with lazy interrupt, book3e can't always
trigger a debug exception with a single step since the current
is blocked for handling those pending exception, then we miss
that expected dbcr configuration at last to generate a debug
exception.
So here we also update thread's dbcr0 to make sure the current
can go back with that missed dbcr0 configuration.
