Subject: [Patch 0/2] HW-BKPT: Introduce per-cpu breakpoints and modify_kernel_hw_breakpoint API
Date: Wed, 26 Aug 2009 01:50:53 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090825202053.GA1166@in.ibm.com> (raw)

Hi All,
	Please find a set of patches that implement the following:

Patch 1/2: Allow per-cpu kernel-space Hardware Breakpoint requests
Patch 2/2: Allow kernel breakpoints to be modified through a new API

During discussion on LKML, these features were deemed necessary for
effective exploitation of hardware breakpoints by perf-tools.

The patches are based off -tip tree. Kindly let me know your comments
on the same.

Thanks,
K.Prasad
