[PATCH 0/4] arm64: kgdb/kdb: Fix single-step debugging issues

From: Wei Li
Date: Sat May 09 2020 - 09:49:14 EST


This patch set is to fix several issues of single-step debugging
in kgdb/kdb on arm64.

It seems that these issues have been shelved a very long time,
but i still hope to solve them, as the single-step debugging
is an useful feature.

Note:
Based on patch "arm64: cacheflush: Fix KGDB trap detection",
https://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg803741.html
