From 90f9d70a582c02f50b4dd847166cd5b037219891 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "bibo,mao" Date: Wed, 31 Jan 2007 17:50:31 +0800 Subject: [IA64] enable singlestep on system call As is pointed out in http://www.gelato.org/community/view_linear.php?id=1_1036&from=authors&value=Ian%20Wienand#1_1039, if single step on break instruction, the break fault has higher priority than the single-step trap. When the break fault handler is entered, it advances the IP by 1 instruction so break instruction single-stepping is skipped, actually it is next instruction which is single stepped. This patch modifies this, it adds TIF_SINGLESTEP bit for thread flags, and generate a fake sigtrap when single stepping break instruction. Test case in attachment can verify this. Any comments is welcome.
