Subject: [PATCH 12/12] hw-breakpoints: reset bits in dr6 after the corresponding exception is handled
Date: Wed,  3 Jun 2009 00:43:36 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1243982616-18212-13-git-send-email-fweisbec@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1243982616-18212-1-git-send-email-fweisbec@gmail.com>

From: K.Prasad <prasad@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

This patch resets the bit in dr6 after the corresponding exception is
handled in code, so that we keep a clean track of the current virtual debug
status register.

[ Impact: keep track of breakpoints triggering completion ]
