Subject: [Patch 6/10] Use virtual debug registers in process/thread handling code
Date: Fri, 13 Feb 2009 20:27:32 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090213145732.GF32064@in.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20090213145301.GA31546@in.ibm.com>
Use virtual debug registers in process/thread handling code
From: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu>
This patch enables the use of abstract/virtual debug registers in
process-handling routines.
[K.Prasad: Split-out from the bigger patch and minor changes following
re-basing]
