From: Dave Hansen Date: Sun, 7 Jun 2015 18:37:03 +0000 (-0700) Subject: x86/mpx: Trace #BR exceptions X-Git-Tag: omap-for-v4.3/legacy-v2-signed~203^2~12 X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e7126cf5f10aef1555cb99eddb7efff41bdf9566;p=pandora-kernel.git x86/mpx: Trace #BR exceptions This is the first in a series of MPX tracing patches. I've found these extremely useful in the process of debugging applications and the kernel code itself. This exception hooks in to the bounds (#BR) exception very early and allows capturing the key registers which would influence how the exception is handled. Note that bndcfgu/bndstatus are technically still 64-bit registers even in 32-bit mode. Signed-off-by: Dave Hansen Reviewed-by: Thomas Gleixner Cc: Andrew Morton Cc: Dave Hansen Cc: H.
