From f93a20541134fa767e8dc4eb32e956d30b9f6b92 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Frederic Weisbecker Date: Tue, 13 Apr 2010 00:32:30 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] hw-breakpoints: Handle breakpoint weight in allocation constraints Depending on their nature and on what an arch supports, breakpoints may consume more than one address register. For example a simple absolute address match usually only requires one address register. But an address range match may consume two registers. Currently our slot allocation constraints, that tend to reflect the limited arch's resources, always consider that a breakpoint consumes one slot. Then provide a way for archs to tell us the weight of a breakpoint through a new hw_breakpoint_weight() helper. This weight will be computed against the generic allocation constraints instead of a constant value.
