This updates the ptrace code to use ppc_breakpoint_available(). We now advertise via PPC_PTRACE_GETHWDBGINFO zero breakpoints when the DAWR is missing (ie. POWER9). This results in GDB falling back to software emulation of the breakpoint (which is slow). For the features advertised by PPC_PTRACE_GETHWDBGINFO, we keep advertising DAWR as if we don't GDB assumes 1 breakpoint irrespective of the number of breakpoints advertised. GDB then fails later when trying to set this one breakpoint. Signed-off-by: Michael Neuling <mikey@neuling.org> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
