Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] x86/hw_breakpoint: Add arch_reinstall_hw_breakpoint
Date: Fri, 12 Sep 2025 10:07:27 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250912020742.193292-2-wangjinchao600@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250912020742.193292-1-wangjinchao600@gmail.com>

The new arch_reinstall_hw_breakpoint() function can be used in an
atomic context, unlike the more expensive free and re-allocation path.
This allows callers to efficiently re-establish an existing breakpoint.
