[PATCH] Single-stepping emulated instructions
Occasionally the ppc64 kernel emulates a usermode instruction, for example in the alignment exception handler. Kumar Gala pointed out (in the context of the ppc32 kernel) that if the instruction was being single-stepped, and we end up emulating the instruction, we should then send the process a SIGTRAP as if it had not been emulated and the process had then taken a single-step exception. This patch implements this for ppc64. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
