Subject: [PATCH 4/7] x86: Support for instruction breakpoints
Date: Thu, 24 Jun 2010 23:40:55 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1277415658-10036-5-git-send-regression-fweisbec@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1277415658-10036-1-git-send-regression-fweisbec@gmail.com>

Instruction breakpoints need to have a specific length of 0 to
be working. Bring this support but also take care the user is not
trying to set an unsupported length, like a range breakpoint for
example.
