53// OBSOLETE /* The PA-BSD kernel has support for using the data memory break bit
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). */
