[patch] Kprobes ia64 qp fix

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The following patch is for the 2.6.12-rc5-mm1 + my previous
"Kprobes ia64 cleanup" patch that fixes a bug where a kprobe still 
fires when the instruction is predicated off.  So given the p6=0, 
and we have an instruction like:

(p6) move loc1=0

we should not be triggering the kprobe.  This is handled by carrying over
the qp section of the original instruction into the break instruction.
