Subject: [PATCH] ppc64 kprobes: don't eat dabr/iabr exceptions
Date: Wed, 8 Jun 2005 15:33:43 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <17062.33591.132405.686993@cargo.ozlabs.ibm.com> (raw)

From: Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli <amavin@redhat.com>

Kprobes was eating the hardware instruction and data address
breakpoint exceptions.  This patch fixes it; kprobes doesn't use those
exceptions at all and should ignore them.
