Subject: [git pull] kgdb 2.6.27-rc7 fixes
Date: Fri, 26 Sep 2008 13:05:15 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1222452320-16281-1-git-send-email-jason.wessel@windriver.com> (raw)
Linus, please pull the kgdb git tree fixes for 2.6.27-rc7
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jwessel/linux-2.6-kgdb.git for_linus
Summary:
Several regressions have been fixed for which there was no automated test.
- Fix regression in flushing data/instruction cache on boundaries
- User space single stepping should be ignored by kgdb
- x86_64 had the BX and DX registers reversed in gdb
- x86_64 eflags, CS, SS, registers were not properly passed to gdb
- tty_io.c has one function repaired which is only used kgdboc
to hook up to the tty system. The input args were not properly
checked. Test case was:
"echo ffff0 > /sys/module/kgdboc/parameters/kgdboc"
Short log follows:

Atsuo Igarashi (1):
kgdb: could not write to the last of valid memory with kgdb

kgdb, x86, arm, mips, powerpc: ignore user space single stepping
