Subject: [PATCH V2 1/4] perf: Add hardware breakpoint address mask
Date: Tue, 23 Apr 2013 02:57:02 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1366703825-19373-2-git-send-email-jacob.shin@amd.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1366703825-19373-1-git-send-email-jacob.shin@amd.com>
Some architectures (for us, AMD Family 16h) allow for "don't care" bit
mask to further qualify a hardware breakpoint address, in order to
trap on range of addresses. Update perf uapi to add bp_addr_mask field.
