From 1674eafcbd3e3c68556cf19fbf4a2c30f7add729 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Anil S Keshavamurthy Date: Thu, 23 Jun 2005 00:09:33 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] Kprobes IA64: cmp ctype unc support The current Kprobes when patching the original instruction with the break instruction tries to retain the original qualifying predicate(qp), however for cmp.crel.ctype where ctype == unc, which is a special instruction always needs to be executed irrespective of qp. Hence, if the instruction we are patching is of this type, then we should not copy the original qp to the break instruction, this is because we always want the break fault to happen so that we can emulate the instruction.
