This patchset is used to support kgdb/gdb on book3e.
Validated on p4080ds and p5040ds with test single step and breakpoint
v3:
* make work when enable CONFIG_RELOCATABLE
* fix one typo in patch,
"powerpc/book3e: store critical/machine/debug exception thread info":
ld r1,PACAKSAVE(r13);
-> ld r14,PACAKSAVE(r13);
* remove copying the thread_info since booke and book3e always copy
the thead_info now when we enter the debug exception, and so drop
the v2 patch, "book3e/kgdb: Fix a single stgep case of lazy IRQ"
v2:
* Make sure we cover CONFIG_PPC_BOOK3E_64 safely
* Use LOAD_REG_IMMEDIATE() to load properly
the value of the constant expression in load debug exception stack
* Copy thread infor form the kernel stack coming from usr
* Rebase latest powerpc git tree
v1:
* Copy thread info only when we are from !user mode since we'll get kernel stack
coming from usr directly.
* remove save/restore EX_R14/EX_R15 since DBG_EXCEPTION_PROLOG already covered
this.
* use CURRENT_THREAD_INFO() conveniently to get thread.
* fix some typos
* add a patch to make sure gdb can generate a single step properly to invoke a
kgdb state.
* add a patch to if we need to replay an interrupt, we shouldn't restore that
previous backup thread info to make sure we can replay an interrupt lately
with a proper thread info.
* rebase latest powerpc git tree
v0:
