The patches have undergone changes to incorporate the suggestions for the previous patchset - including removal of support for instruction breakpoint, and are based off 2.6.28-rc7. The patches have been tested on x86 architecture along with kprobes, however they're posted as RFC owing to the many pending tasks (refer http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/10/7/127 for details).
