Subject: [ 33/59] kgdb,debug_core: pass the breakpoint struct instead of address and memory
3.2-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Jason Wessel <jason.wessel@...driver.com>
commit 98b54aa1a2241b59372468bd1e9c2d207bdba54b upstream.
There is extra state information that needs to be exposed in the
kgdb_bpt structure for tracking how a breakpoint was installed. The
debug_core only uses the the probe_kernel_write() to install
breakpoints, but this is not enough for all the archs. Some arch such
as x86 need to use text_poke() in order to install a breakpoint into a
read only page.
Passing the kgdb_bpt structure to kgdb_arch_set_breakpoint() and
kgdb_arch_remove_breakpoint() allows other archs to set the type
variable which indicates how the breakpoint was installed.
