Esteemed kernel hackers,
To follow is my third pass at MIPS watch register support.
This version has been tested on:
* MIPS 4KEc (mips32) with a single set of watch registers watchhi not
reporting I, R, and W conditions.
* MIPS 4KEc (mips32r2) with four sets of watch registers.
* R5000 SGI O2 (mips4 64bit) with no watch register support.
The patches are against 2.6.27-rc4
Changes from the previous version:
* Agreement from gdb maintainers that the ptrace interface is
workable.
* Work around for watchhi registers that do not report the I, R, and W
condition bits.
* General cleanup, including making much less code conditionally
compiled.
To really test the patch you will need a patched gdb. My current gdb
patch is here:
http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2008-08/msg00650.html
If you have any comments or questions please let me know.
David Daney
This is automatically set for all MIPS32 and MIPS64 processors.

This is the support code for watch register support. It is not hooked
up to anything yet, that comes next.
There are two new files (watch.c, watch.h) the rest is additions.

I think there will have to be at least one more pass at this.
The current design assumes that all debug registers support an identical
set of the I, R, and W bits and Mask.
However sections 8.23 and 8.24 of my
MIPS32? Architecture For Programmers
Volume III: The MIPS32? Privileged Resource Architecture
indicate that they do not have to uniform. I will have to augment the
ptrace structures to report the values for each register instead of a
single global value.
