      kgdb, x86, arm, mips, powerpc: ignore user space single stepping · d7161a65
      Jason Wessel 提交于
      On the x86 arch, user space single step exceptions should be ignored
      if they occur in the kernel space, such as ptrace stepping through a
      system call.
      
      First check if it is kgdb that is executing a single step, then ensure
      it is not an accidental traversal into the user space, while in kgdb,
      any other time the TIF_SINGLESTEP is set, kgdb should ignore the
      exception.
      
      On x86, arm, mips and powerpc, the kgdb_contthread usage was
      inconsistent with the way single stepping is implemented in the kgdb
      core.  The arch specific stub should always set the
      kgdb_cpu_doing_single_step correctly if it is single stepping.  This
      allows kgdb to correctly process an instruction steps if ptrace
      happens to be requesting an instruction step over a system call.

      kgdb: support for ARCH=arm · 5cbad0eb
      Jason Wessel 提交于
      This patch adds the ARCH=arm specific a kgdb backend, originally
      written by Deepak Saxena <dsaxena@plexity.net> and George Davis
      <gdavis@mvista.com>.  Geoff Levand <geoffrey.levand@am.sony.com>,
      Nicolas Pitre, Manish Lachwani, and Jason Wessel have contributed
      various fixups here as well.
      
      The KGDB patch makes one change to the core ARM architecture such that
      the traps are initialized early for use with the debugger or other
      subsystems.
