Subject: [RFC Patch 0/6] PPC64: Hardware Breakpoint interfaces - ver II
Date: Thu, 14 May 2009 19:12:50 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090514134250.GA14229@in.ibm.com> (raw)
Hi All,
Please find a revised patchset that implement hardware breakpoint
interfaces for PPC64 architecture. The changes over the previous patchset
posted here: http://ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2009-May/071942.html
are given below.
Kindly let me know your comments about the same.
Changelog - ver II
------------------
(Ver I: http://ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2009-May/071942.html)
- Split the monolithic patch into six logical patches
- Changed the signature of arch_check_va_in_<user><kernel>space functions. They
are now marked static.
- HB_NUM is now called as HBP_NUM (to preserve a consistent short-name
convention)
- Introduced hw_breakpoint_disable() and changes to kexec code to disable
breakpoints before a reboot.
- Minor changes in ptrace code to use macro-defined constants instead of
numbers.
- Introduced a new constant definition INSTRUCTION_LEN in reg.h
Thanks,
K.Prasad
