[PATCH v2] powerpc/watchpoint/ptrace: Introduce PPC_DEBUG_FEATURE_DATA_BP_DAWR_ARCH_31

Ravi Bangoria ravi.bangoria at linux.ibm.com
Thu Jul 23 19:33:30 AEST 2020


PPC_DEBUG_FEATURE_DATA_BP_DAWR_ARCH_31 can be used to determine
whether we are running on an ISA 3.1 compliant machine. Which is
needed to determine DAR behaviour, 512 byte boundary limit etc.
This was requested by Pedro Miraglia Franco de Carvalho for
extending watchpoint features in gdb. Note that availability of
2nd DAWR is independent of this flag and should be checked using
ppc_debug_info->num_data_bps.
