39 This provides several functions for inserting and removing
40 hardware-assisted breakpoints and watchpoints, testing if one or
41 more of the watchpoints triggered and at what address, checking
42 whether a given region can be watched, etc.
43
44 In addition, each target should provide several low-level functions
45 regrouped into i386_dr_low_type struct below. These functions
46 that will be called to insert watchpoints and hardware breakpoints
47 into the inferior, remove them, and check their status. These
48 functions are:
49
50 set_control -- set the debug control (DR7)
51 register to a given value for all LWPs
52
53 set_addr -- put an address into one debug
54 register for all LWPs
55
56 get_addr -- return the address in a given debug
57 register of the current LWP
58
59 get_status -- return the value of the debug
60 status (DR6) register for current LWP
61
62 get_control -- return the value of the debug
63 control (DR7) register for current LWP
64
65 Additionally, the native file should set the debug_register_length
66 field to 4 or 8 depending on the number of bytes used for
67 deubg registers. */
