Subject: [PATCH RFC v2 6/8] perf/core: Add breakpoint information to siginfo on SIGTRAP
Date: Wed, 10 Mar 2021 11:41:37 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210310104139.679618-7-elver@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210310104139.679618-1-elver@google.com>

Encode information from breakpoint attributes into siginfo_t, which
helps disambiguate which breakpoint fired.

Note, providing the event fd may be unreliable, since the event may have
been modified (via PERF_EVENT_IOC_MODIFY_ATTRIBUTES) between the event
triggering and the signal being delivered to user space.
