From 2c31b7958fd21df9fa04e5c36cda0f063ac70b27 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Frederic Weisbecker Date: Thu, 26 Nov 2009 06:04:38 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] x86/hw-breakpoints: Don't lose GE flag while disabling a breakpoint When we schedule out a breakpoint from the cpu, we also incidentally remove the "Global exact breakpoint" flag from the breakpoint control register. It makes us losing the fine grained precision about the origin of the instructions that may trigger breakpoint exceptions for the other breakpoints running in this cpu.
