Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH] undefined instruction handling to fix for ARM
Date: Tue, 02 May 2006 15:19:27 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4457BECF.5080804@windriver.com> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 412 bytes --]

After some significant debugging I found the problem with GDB on the 
target side.

The instruction translation was not correctly executing undefined 
instructions per section 3.13.1 of the ARM Architecture Reference 
Manual.  Using the attached patch, the target side GDB as well as kernel 
side ptrace() with software breakpoints execute correctly and report 
exceptions to the correct vector.

Thanks,
Jason.
