54 // OBSOLETE to implement fast watchpoints.
55 // OBSOLETE
56 // OBSOLETE Watchpoints on the PA act much like traditional page protection
57 // OBSOLETE schemes, but with some notable differences.
58 // OBSOLETE
59 // OBSOLETE First, a special bit in the page table entry is used to cause
60 // OBSOLETE a trap when a specific page is written to. This avoids having
61 // OBSOLETE to overload watchpoints on the page protection bits. This makes
62 // OBSOLETE it possible for the kernel to easily decide if a trap was caused
63 // OBSOLETE by a watchpoint or by the user writing to protected memory and can
64 // OBSOLETE signal the user program differently in each case.
65 // OBSOLETE
66 // OBSOLETE Second, the PA has a bit in the processor status word which causes
67 // OBSOLETE data memory breakpoints (aka watchpoints) to be disabled for a single
68 // OBSOLETE instruction. This bit can be used to avoid the overhead of unprotecting
69 // OBSOLETE and reprotecting pages when it becomes necessary to step over a watchpoint.
70 // OBSOLETE
71 // OBSOLETE
72 // OBSOLETE When the kernel receives a trap indicating a write to a page which
73 // OBSOLETE is being watched, the kernel performs a couple of simple actions. First
74 // OBSOLETE is sets the magic "disable memory breakpoint" bit in the processor
75 // OBSOLETE status word, it then sends a SIGTRAP to the process which caused the
76 // OBSOLETE trap.
77 // OBSOLETE
78 // OBSOLETE GDB will take control and catch the signal for the inferior. GDB then
79 // OBSOLETE examines the PSW-X bit to determine if the SIGTRAP was caused by a
80 // OBSOLETE watchpoint firing. If so GDB single steps the inferior over the
81 // OBSOLETE instruction which caused the watchpoint to trigger (note because the
82 // OBSOLETE kernel disabled the data memory break bit for one instruction no trap
83 // OBSOLETE will be taken!). GDB will then determines the appropriate action to
84 // OBSOLETE take. (this may include restarting the inferior if the watchpoint
85 // OBSOLETE fired because of a write to an address on the same page as a watchpoint,
86 // OBSOLETE but no write to the watched address occured). */
