[PATCH v3] powerpc/kvm: support to handle sw breakpoint

Fri Aug 1 14:50:43 EST 2014


This patch adds kernel side support for software breakpoint.
Design is that, by using an illegal instruction, we trap to hypervisor
via Emulation Assistance interrupt, where we check for the illegal instruction
and accordingly we return to Host or Guest. Patch also adds support for
software breakpoint in PR KVM.

Changes v2->v3:
 Changed the debug instructions. Using the all zero opcode in the instruction word
  as illegal instruction as mentioned in Power ISA instead of ABS
 Removed reg updated in emulation assist and added a call to
  kvmppc_emulate_instruction for reg update.

Changes v1->v2:

 Moved the debug instruction #def to kvm_book3s.h. This way PR_KVM can also share it.
 Added code to use KVM get one reg infrastructure to get debug opcode.
 Updated emulate.c to include emulation of debug instruction incase of PR_KVM.
 Made changes to commit message.
