[PATCH 4/6] Watch exception handling for HARDWARE_WATCHPOINTS. | |
| [Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] | |
Watch exception handling for HARDWARE_WATCHPOINTS.
Here we hook up the watch exception handler so that it sends SIGTRAP when
the hardware watch registers are triggered.
