Subject: [RFC PATCH v4 1/2] powerpc/xmon: Allow listing active breakpoints in read-only mode
Date: Thu, 15 Aug 2019 00:06:15 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190815050616.2547-2-cmr@informatik.wtf> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190815050616.2547-1-cmr@informatik.wtf>

Xmon can enter read-only mode dynamically due to changes in kernel
lockdown state. This transition does not clear active breakpoints and
any these breakpoints should remain visible to the xmon'er.
