Prev: [PATCH v21 044/100] c/r: add checkpoint operation for opened files of generic filesystems
Next: [PATCH v21 069/100] Expose may_setuid() in user.h and add may_setgid() (v2)
From: Oren Laadan on 1 May 2010 10:40
From: Nathan Lynch <ntl(a)pobox.com>

A checkpointed task image may specify a value for the DABR (Data
Access Breakpoint Register). The restart code needs to validate this
value before making any changes to the current task.

ptrace_set_debugreg encapsulates the bounds checking and platform
dependencies of programming the DABR. Split this into "validate"
(debugreg_valid) and "update" (debugreg_update) functions, and make
them available for use outside of the ptrace code.

Also ptrace_set_debugreg has extern linkage, but no users outside of
ptrace.c. Make it static.
