Subject: Re: [PATCH] MIPS: KProbes support v0.1
I have a few questions and comments below. Many of them may be due to
my lack of understanding about the internals of KProbes.

It might be cleaner without the #ifdef. These are enum value
definitions, so it doesn't affect code size.
Can you also explain how the die notifier chain interacts with KProbes
and why it cannot be a seperate notifier chain?

The BREAK codes are defined in asm/break.h This should be added there
instead.
Why do you use codes (0 and 5) that are already kind of reserved for
user space debuggers?

You have to call a function in arch/mips/mm/c-* to do this, you cannot
open code with CACHE instructions as you need to handle CPU quirks and
SMP. It is possible that flush_icache_range() or flush_cache_sigtramp()
would work. Or we might need something new.
I see you use flush_icache_range() below, why have this definition, it
looks unused?

Why this ugliness? Can't you handle it in do_bp() or do_trap_or_bp()?

Need to add or otherwise handle:
#ifdef CONFIG_CPU_CAVIUM_OCTEON
case lwc2_op: /* This is bbit0 on Octeon */
case ldc2_op: /* This is bbit032 on Octeon */
case swc2_op: /* This is bbit1 on Octeon */
case sdc2_op: /* This is bbit132 on Octeon */
#endif
